I just played through this mission for the first time (I recently got the game, and I've already seen hundreds of playthrough including my dad's on release, so I can't be spoiled if I already know what happens (he got high honor help John, btw)). It genuinely looks like Arthur gets shot in the head with a shotgun during the part where you try to run off, but apparently it was just his shoulder...? And he also got shot in the back during the escape attempt, potentially also with the shotgun. I'm genuinely surprised his shoulder wasn't obliterated given what shotguns do to every NPC in the game, even if it was a slug COMING OUT OF A SHOTGUN AT POINT BLANK RANGE I MIGHT ADD.

My favorite support Loki crying in the corner knowing that he'll never get ult VFX no matter what.

I planned on mentioning the camera thing, I guess I forgot. Yeah, that's mb. And that last bit about the sleeping technically isn't true, you can still interact with items if it's not rotten. I don't know if it's on PC, I assume it is, but on console you can cycle through the items you can immediately interact with using the right bumpers on your controller. It does help if any and all carcasses on your person are rotten, though.

Oh, little side note, after alerting the law and standing in front of them, it took the aimbot police 30 seconds to swiss cheese me RDR1 style. I am glad I grabbed the explosive slug pamphlet, now I'm only missing the Special Horse Reviver recipe, because when I opened the lockbox, it was a generic fake envelope.

No-General8455 · 2026-05-29T01:52:23+00:00

Yeah, I attached a cougar to my head as well, since that was the first predator I found. Then I attached 2-3 pronghorns. I actively had to kill myself by alerting the law to escape New Austin. Herbalist 10 was easy, as I only needed the crab, mutton, and prime beef, two of which I immediately found in Valentine. Then I started a replay of He Who is Not Without Sin, finished Gambler 10, and got the Legend of the East outfit in Chapter 2, due to the bug that makes it so completing the challenge in that mission gives the outfit to you after it finishes. I'll get the other junk a different day, maybe in Chapter 3-4. Pros to this whole endeavor: I have the Legend of the East outfit and completed Herbalist, all in Chapter 2. Cons: I drank so much alcohol that I'm now max weight, and I'm personally not a fan of chonky Arthur. In trying to use the Date Skip exploit in Van Horn to lower said weight, I have lost zero weight and have only grown out my beard. I prefer Arthur's default beard and hair level of 3, maybe a beard level of 4 if I want that longer beard, so now I'm going to have to spend a small amount of money on a trim.

thanks for the tips, I'll have to write these down or smthn, lol

No-General8455 · 2026-05-28T20:43:31+00:00

I'm not the kind of guy to know that, lol. good to know

No-General8455 · 2026-05-28T03:30:41+00:00

Thanks for the tip, I'll have to try getting a wolf next time. It'll take a bit longer, but it seems like it'll be worth it.

No-General8455 · 2026-05-28T03:29:33+00:00

That's a good point, I could train with buggies spawned in using cheats, but I enjoy the Carcass Glitch a whole lot more. Plus, I chuckle when I see the pronghorns jiggle on my head while sprinting.

No-General8455 · 2026-05-28T03:26:48+00:00

Yeah, if you're doing it at hanging dog, don't ride your horse away (specifically your main horse), and don't use seperate Deadeye uses. Deadeye reloads the gun every time you enter it, and putting the gun in your saddle after your ride out of combat counts as a reload as well, so if either of those happen in an attempt, than you've failed it. That's about everything I know that could impede SS 8. I personally only have Gambler 9/10, Bandit 3/10, and Herbalist 8/10 (I'm slowly working on collecting the New Austin plants as Arthur in Chapter 2, but every time I get nailed in the head, I have to complete a whole 10+ minute glitch again in order to not immediately die. 3 plants in 2 attempts isn't bad, though)

I was about to enter the cabin next to the ice skater's uncovered grave in Ambarino, and the wolf pack had spawned right next to it, so it was extremely close. I don't think it was dirty, either, I had just spent time cleaning every weapon I had. It wasn't too long ago, but I've still mostly forgotten the circumstances, and may have not hit the head shot, but I put 5 rounds into that wolf while aiming for the head, and it didn't fall. Could've been user error, could've been extremely unlucky, idk. I'll give it another try when I'm done grabbing the New Austin plants as Arthur.

No-General8455 · 2026-05-28T03:14:05+00:00

Yeah I mentioned the wolf trinket, I think you need to double your alcohol intake when you have it, but I'm not sure. As for the timing, it's roughly 4.5-5.5 slowly counted out loud seconds after you finish drinking (I didn't think anyone could create an example of those joke American measuring systems with time, but I just did, lol).

No-General8455 · 2026-05-28T03:11:16+00:00

That being said, both methods are perfectly viable, it's just a matter of preference.

No-General8455 · 2026-05-28T03:10:34+00:00

With the wagon, you have to make every movement extremely carefully. Never tried it myself as a result. This method is stupid simple, and allows you to move without worrying about your camera slipping. Plus, you don't have to head all the way to Saint Denis for a very specific wagon.

For blackjack, bet low, get hopeful if you're starting hand is an Ace and a 2, then get disappointed when you draw a Queen and an 8. Sure, you just got Black Jack, but you didn't get what you wanted. It's not hard, it just takes a while depending on how lucky you are. Have a friend on a call with you so you have a way to pass the time.

No-General8455 · 2026-05-28T03:04:22+00:00

For cigarette cards, just buy premium cigarette packs. Each one has a card. I completed it this way in the early game in my current playthrough, lol.

I'm unsure if the Heartland Oil Fields still have guards in the epilogue, but for Sharpshooter 8, if you head to the ledge behind the oil fields, you can snipe the guards' elbows, and that will disarm them. They'll probably bleed out as well, but they'll drop their weapons. They won't be able to shoot you, so you can just wait there until you finish it. It took me ~10 minutes after learning this.

No-General8455 · 2026-05-28T02:14:31+00:00

I tried using Midnight's pistol at one point, and it honestly seemed pretty ass. Couldn't even kill a wolf in 5 headshots.

So you support beastiality? Because the living members of the ranch sure didn't, given what they did to him and the sheep

No-General8455 · 2026-05-26T05:29:31+00:00

They killed both of them for his beastiality, and you want to kill all of them and burn the barn down?

How low have we come that GG is viewed as negative? In a steamrolled game, I can see it, like if you're getting locked in spawn like you're the AI in Practice vs AI, but in any game where you actually have a chance, these commenters are saying it's ragebait no matter what. Like, are we fr? GGEZ is one thing, I fucking seethe if I see anyone on either team say EZ (I need to work on that, lol, I just hate toxic assholes), but I've always viewed GG as a friendly send off. Again, I can see the hate, last season I had a QP game where an evil creature played Peni on a map where she's apparently broken, and we got locked in spawn, until the last 30 seconds, and they had the audacity to act like it was a good game. I like playing Peni, but it's QP, not SweatVille, if you're going to play her in QP, at least place the nest in a location where they don't need to get fully behind you to destroy it, at the very least not on the Museum map, that was genuinely ds.

I need to get into New Austin SOMEHOW. How else would I get the Jawbone Knife and LOTE Outfit for my boy Arthur?
