Coveted is a mission available to the player in Grand Theft Auto Online.
Description[]
Whilst it is heavily implied it is performed for Martin Madrazo (as the player is tasked to deliver the container to his lock up), it is not offered via a phone message but started by walking into the blue corona (marked by a star icon on the player's radar) on the hilltop above the cove (west-southwest of The Cove parachute jump and due north of the Palmer-Taylor Power Station) in Grand Theft Auto Online Freemode between 00:00 (midnight) and 08:00.
This is one of six co-op "contact" missions not directly given by the contacts in GTA Online (including Coasting, Potshot, Crystal Clear Out II & III and Dirt Road). It can be accessed immediately upon reaching the required Rank by the Start>Online>Jobs menu (PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 only) or by walking into the job corona on the map (although the map coronas are limited by time of day).
On original release of GTA Online, this mission became particularly famous for being used to make fast money, given how easy it was and how, unlike in most other missions, the payouts did not get cut in half after being played the first time (similar to Rooftop Rumble). Subsequent patching of mission payout structure and difficulty has altered this considerably.
Version History[]
Description[]
A rival gang is attempting to move an unknown shipment via Cargobob and Martin Madrazo wants it to be intercepted and given to him at a lock-up of his. The container is guarded by The Professionals using Assault Rifles, SMGs, Micro-SMGs and RPGs. The player(s) must use the Cargobob to pick up the shipment which is inside a ThriftEX container and then deliver it to the railyards in Cypress Flats
When the players arrive at the cove they have 2 minutes to reach the Cargobob’s landing area and kill the enemies to secure the landing site. Failing to do this in time will immediately fail the mission. The Cargobob will arrive within 2 minutes of the players reaching the cove.
2 enemies on the beach near the objective container now have RPGs (low accuracy).
Enemies on the beach no longer have Extended Line Of Sight, meaning they won’t shoot at the players as they fight down the hill.
Once the player has collected the container, an enemy Buzzard Attack Chopper spawns and pursues the Cargobob. Ground forces will also spawn along the highways on the way to the warehouse and if the Cargobob's altitude is sufficiently low can be a threat.
Mission Objectives[]
- Go to the cove.
- Secure the landing site (2 minute time limit)
- Retrieve the container.
- Deliver the container to the warehouse.

- Rockstar Games removed Coveted, as well as Dirt Road, Factory Closure, Truck Together, Crystal Clear Out II, Crystal Clear Out III, Close Action, Coasting, and Potshot from the jobs menu after introducing patch 1.12. They were still accessible from their map coronas and were reinstated to the jobs menu in update 1.13
