The Epsilon Program, a satirical cult featured throughout the Grand Theft Auto series, plays a significant role in GTA 5, especially if you’re aiming for the elusive Kifflom Trophy or Achievement. This guide will walk you through the Epsilon Program missions in GTA 5, highlighting the crucial car locations you’ll need to find to progress, offering a smoother journey through their ‘spiritual enlightenment’.
How to Start the GTA 5 Epsilon Missions
To begin your journey with the Epsilon Program, you first need to advance in the main story until you complete the mission Father and Son. After this point, Michael will gain access to the Epsilon Program website. Use your in-game phone or any computer, navigate to the internet, and search for “Epsilon” using EyeFind. Click on the first result and complete the evaluation form. Rest assured, your answers here don’t impact the missions themselves, so answer freely.
Following the evaluation, the Epsilon Program will task Michael with locating a specific red truck.
Seeking the Truth: Finding the Red Truck
A question mark will appear in Raton Canyon, marking the location of the red truck. Head to this area to initiate the “Seeking the Truth” mission. This initial step is essentially a cutscene trigger. Find the red truck at the marked location to proceed with the Epsilon questline.
After this encounter, you’ll receive an email requesting a $500 donation to the Church of Epsilon. Return to the Epsilon website and make this payment to unlock the next mission stage.
Accepting and Assuming the Truth: Early Epsilon Missions
Keep an eye on your map for the Epsilon logo to appear, indicating the next mission, “Accepting the Truth”. Travel to the marked location to meet Marnie, your Epsilon contact. She will then request a further “enlightenment” donation of $5,000. Just as before, revisit the Epsilon website and make the required donation to continue.
Shortly after, another Epsilon symbol will appear in Grapeseed, leading to the “Assuming the Truth” mission. Marnie will meet you again and this time assign you the task of procuring five specific vehicles for high-ranking Epsilon members. This is where locating specific car locations becomes crucial. The vehicles required are the Pegassi Vacca, Benefactor Surano, Declasse Tornado, Enus Super Diamond, and Dinka Double-T.
Vehicle Locations for the “Assuming the Truth” Mission
Finding these five vehicles is simpler than it might seem if you know exactly where to look. These cars are parked in specific, static locations around Los Santos and Blaine County, making the vehicle recovery task straightforward.
Pegassi Vacca Location
The Pegassi Vacca, a sleek sports car, is conveniently parked in a driveway. You can find this vehicle in Rockford Hills. Drive around the residential areas of Rockford Hills, and you’ll easily spot the Vacca parked in front of a house.
Benefactor Surano Location
The Benefactor Surano, another stylish sports car, is located in a small parking lot. Head to Burton, specifically the area near Los Santos Customs. You’ll find the Surano parked in a small lot, often accompanied by other parked vehicles.
Declasse Tornado Location
For the classic Declasse Tornado, you need to visit a body shop. Go to Rancho, and locate the Rancho body shop. A Tornado is typically parked directly outside the body shop, making it an easy grab.
Enus Super Diamond Location
The luxurious Enus Super Diamond is parked behind a building in Rockford Hills. Navigate to the commercial area of Rockford Hills. Check behind the buildings and shops, and you should find the Super Diamond parked discreetly.
Dinka Double-T Location
Finally, the Dinka Double-T motorcycle is parked at the LifeInvader offices. Head to Pillbox Hill in Downtown Los Santos, and locate the LifeInvader building. The Dinka Double-T is parked in front of or just beside the building.
Once you have collected and delivered all five vehicles to the designated drop-off points, the “Assuming the Truth” mission concludes, and another Epsilon logo will appear on your map, leading you to the next stage.
Chasing, Bearing, Delivering, Exercising, and Unknowing the Truth
The subsequent Epsilon missions, “Chasing the Truth,” “Bearing the Truth,” “Delivering the Truth,” “Exercising the Truth,” and “Unknowing the Truth,” continue the bizarre journey of spiritual enlightenment. These missions involve tasks ranging from finding “artifacts” to wearing Epsilon robes for extended periods and even running five miles in the desert. While vehicle locations are not the primary focus of these missions, they are integral to progressing through the Epsilon storyline and ultimately achieving the Kifflom Trophy or Achievement.
In “Chasing the Truth,” you’ll be searching for seemingly random items. “Bearing the Truth” requires purchasing and wearing expensive Epsilon robes for 10 in-game days. “Delivering the Truth” is a simple flight mission. “Exercising the Truth” is the infamous five-mile run in the desert. Finally, “Unknowing the Truth” brings you to the Epsilon Center for the culmination of your journey, offering a choice that impacts your financial gain and mission completion.
Completing “Unknowing the Truth,” regardless of the choice you make at the end, will reward you with the Kifflom! Trophy or Achievement, signifying the completion of the Epsilon Program mission line in GTA 5.
Optional Epsilon Tract Locations
After finishing the Epsilon Program missions, Marnie will begin sending clues for Epsilon Tract locations. These are optional collectibles, with ten tracts scattered across the map. Finding them all provides no in-game reward but serves as an additional completionist challenge for dedicated players. Locations range from Mount Chiliad to Paleto Cove and even underwater wrecks, offering diverse exploration across the GTA 5 map.
Conclusion
Navigating the Epsilon Program missions in GTA 5 can be a bewildering yet entertaining experience. Locating the specific vehicles for the “Assuming the Truth” mission is a key step in this journey. This guide provides the precise car locations needed to smoothly progress through this vehicle procurement task, setting you firmly on the path to Kifflom and the associated rewards. Whether you are a seasoned GTA veteran or a newcomer aiming for 100% completion, understanding these vehicle locations will streamline your Epsilon Program experience.
