Summary
Red Dead Redemption 2features an expansive open world in which players canflourish in the American plains. Taking this world and characters toRed Dead Online, players can have a bundle of fun that ignites from the moment they get their bounty hunter license. As a bounty hunter, players will unlock new opportunities for rewards, cash, and fun inRed Dead Online.
Yet, the job of a bounty hunter isn’t exactly an easy one. Whilst players are tasked with bringing in suspects dead or alive, they are also faced with the dangers that come with such a task. Murder is common in the bounty-hunting business, so these tips might help beginners become professionals in no time.
6Take Time In Completing Legendary Bounties
Earn More Cash And XP By Keeping The Timer Going
When heading to a town, players can interact with a bounty board that is usually outside a sheriff’s office. From here, they canselect a Legendary Bounty. Each completion of a Legendary Bounty will up the difficulty, meaning 5 completions of the same Legendary Bounty will grant players the hardest variation of that mission, providing more XP, gold nuggets, and cash reward, at the cost of more troubling enemies.
Whilst in a Legendary Bounty, players are faced with a mixture of challenging story content whilst in a solo lobby. As such, players are free to take their time in completing the task at hand. Players should feel free to take their time, as Legendary Bounties have a cooldown before players can re-enter them, and the longer the mission takes (around 15 minutes) the more rewards they will earn, as it’s a measurement of time spent and not kills and speed.
5Stock Up On Healing Items
Health Cures Can Prevent Unwanted Deaths
Bounty-hunting targets are usually never alone, and there can be an abundance of enemies joining them. Bounty targets are armed, and so are their gangs and posses that will seek to hunt down players who have stolen their leader. As such, it’s a good idea to keep a good stock of healing items so health cores and bars do not deplete and causean unfortunate death.
Purchasing Health Cures for $2.50 at any general store is a great idea, as it will fully restore health and even fortify it temporarily, allowing players to tank more damage as they battle their way to their target against all odds.
4Purchase Bounty Hunter Equipment
Hunt Professionally With Bolas, Wagons, And A Reinforced Lasso
When purchasing the bounty hunter role, there are a few notable inclusions that players will want. The first is the Reinforced Lasso, which costs 1 Rank Token and $350 at Rank 1. This lasso is knife-proof and makes it harder for bounties to wriggle out of, allowing players to hogtie their bounties without worrying so much about them escaping. Anotherfun addition to the bounty hunter equipmentis the Bolas, purchased for $30 at Bounty Hunter Rank 10. This allows players to tie up their target from a range, but they are easy to break out of, and should mainly be used to temporarily restrain and stop them from shooting.
The last piece of equipment that every bounty hunter needs is the Bounty Hunter Wagon. At Rank 10 of the Bounty Hunter pass, and for $875, players can purchase a wagon that will allow them to securely restrain and transport bounty targets. This is extremely useful for collecting multiple bounties for a big payday.
3Hunt With A Posse
Groups Of Bounty Hunters Will Have More Success
Bounty hunting isn’t an easy job, and doing it alone can warrant an early grave. If players want to have better success, especially in legendary bounty hunts, then it’s a good idea to bring along a partner or more, as a posse cangreatly help at survival odds.
More firepower means safety in numbers, and even if a player falls in battle, they have their teammates to rely on. Everyone gets their own loot, so players do not have to lose out on cash just because they need a helping hand.
2Invest In A Good Horse
Avoid Horses That Are Prone To Fear And Lack Speed
Horses are essential for travel inRed Dead Online, and with the best one, players will not have to worry about their favorite animal being killed or have it run away in fright from gunfire. Players need something agile and quick if they are to chase down their targets whilst battling other outlaws, andthe Nacogdoches Saddlewith a sturdy multi-class horse like the Norfolk Roadster might do just that.
Plenty of bounty targets are far away, and those who don’t want to get caught or die trying will run away, letting their gang do the dirty work for them. As such, it’s wise to bring a good horse that can trample the competition and charge into battle without fear.
1Bring Bounties In Alive
Earn More Money From Keeping Living Bounties
More often than not, a bounty-hunting target isn’t going to go down without a fight. Even if it’s easier to drop them, players shouldtry and avoid killingthem, as most bounties are either wanted alive, or the money reward is far greater even if the bounty doesn’t specifically request them to still be breathing.
Bounties should be brought in alive to earn more money and XP. Even if those pesky targets don’t stop talking and threatening the player, it’s still worth keeping them alive for what payment can be provided for bringing them to a cell rather than a wooden box.
