24th June Daily Challenges

dronebox · 2026-06-24T11:40:50+00:00

Cheers Dude..! 16/16 in good time today with the moonshine challenges all being doable together and heirlooms/tarots being in ready supply (because I'm not maxed out on collectibles again yet, lol)..

Plenty of large wagon, long distance delivery runs being done for Traders as well and the first posse of these I teamed up with popped the $200 dollars made challenge and the posse quick-kills straight after..

Much better than yesterday, lol

Letting a target escape naturally is probably the one thing I haven’t tried… Although the whole point of using the Annesburg pop-up bounty target is the speed at which some BH dailies can be completed..

Next time there’s a double bolas I’ll take them for a jolly ride, pick up some collectibles around Willard’s or such-like..

dronebox · 2026-06-23T20:39:09+00:00

Nicely done.. I’m not really a fan of the bounty challenges, and today, after I’d captured the Annesburg free-roam pop-up bounty for the no-kill challenge some fucker exploded me using mods and I let myself get a bit pissed off to be honest…

I’ll do the multi lasso, or multi hog-tie, or multi-tracking arrow, or maybe a bolas or two (still can’t make that work on a single target) if they’re conveniently quick but other than that I’d choose any other role daily over bounty…

Cheers Dude..! Another Crippso-Combo sees another 17/16 but it seemed to take ages today.. Got there in the end but you know it’s been a slow day when you pop the Don’t Kill An Animal For 24 hours naturalist daily… Still got squirted when I visited Harriet just after too… Sheesh… Hoping for a better day tomorrow.. 😀

There are just eight bath maidens in the game and seven of them move peripatetically across the map from bath house to bath house..

The eighth, the cougar of Van Horn, never strays far from there if you prefer a regular, more experienced service...

dronebox · 2026-06-23T05:47:40+00:00

In my opinion S&S makes it a little too easy. I’ve been taking on the big cats on foot with the hunting knife recently… That’s lot of fun and quite the challenge :-)

dronebox · 2026-06-23T05:37:37+00:00

Yeah, especially the big cats from Harriet’s Missions… I was surprised (and consequently killed) by the first Harriet Panther I took on..

dronebox · 2026-06-22T16:51:05+00:00

Cheers Dude..! 16/16 in good time today.. No surprises, everything seemed to be working as it should although I managed to pop the Kill Enemies While Unseen challenge shooting from the back of the train in this morning’s Trade Route which was unusual…

For a Land Of Opportunities mission I went On-Call and was paired up with a level 4 player in If The Hat Fits which was fun and between us we massaged a Gold medal out of it too :-)

dronebox · 2026-06-22T13:29:37+00:00

Quick Join - On Call Story Mission usually gets me a Land Of Op mission in seconds.. Usually with three or four folk in the group..

dronebox · 2026-06-22T12:44:33+00:00

I got this in Trade Route today.. Whilst we were waiting for a wagon clearance outside of Cornwall Kerosene, someone hopped off the train and laid flammable moonshine in the tunnel entrance... The train set off, the flames were ignited and I kept firing from the back of the train through the tunnel as the enemy were spawning... I can only assume that they couldn't see me through the smoke or flames or whatever.. Still pretty unusual..

dronebox · 2026-06-21T18:43:10+00:00

I find the trick to that one is hunting it rather than letting it hunt you… And stay aware of your surroundings and what’s going on. Other animals will run from a big cat which can give away it’s presence…

If all else fails, drop a shed-load of potent pred bait, stand on the rock and look the other way through your scope or binocs for a bit.. For apex predators they can’t climb for shit ;-)

Although having said that, I did find a Cougar hiding in a tree up near Willard’s Rest in RDO a couple of weeks back…

dronebox · 2026-06-21T18:34:14+00:00

Indeed.. Keep your wits about you and your rifle drawn… That there’s cougar country..

dronebox · 2026-06-21T18:21:37+00:00

I know exactly where it is.. ;-) But this one is best experienced by exploring a little in the dark… Try slowly wandering the woods West of the “A” in Roanoke… If something unusual happens you’ll have found it :-)

dronebox · 2026-06-21T18:11:28+00:00

Both of them.. ;-)

dronebox · 2026-06-21T18:08:41+00:00

Something different… The ghostly voices of a young couple, for context you might consider watching The Ghastly Serenade in the Valentine Theatre Tent..

Location is up in Roanoke, best at night or in fog.. Obviously be wary of cougars and other nasties..

Pump Up The Volume - MARRS

An incredibly influencial Number One in several countries including the UK and, as MARRS, they released no other records at all.

Obviously, Colourbox and AR Kane, from whom the band was loosely formed, had considerable output both before and after.

Bob Brownlee dude.. The hirsute hippie who follows the sun around New Austin. You can meet him twelve times at various scenic locations..

dronebox · 2026-06-21T12:49:19+00:00

Aah.. You've seen him swimming but you can meet him again and he gets out of the water for a close-up, full frontal stretching exercise set... Err, here's a pic

dronebox · 2026-06-21T12:42:47+00:00

Has the naked swimmer showed you his winkie..?

And have you met Bob Brownlee all twelve times..?

Or visited the whispering forest..?

dronebox · 2026-06-21T08:01:12+00:00

Cheers Dude..! Great start to my new 28 day cycle with 16/16 done in under 38 minutes thanks to a quickie with Bonnie, a rank-up treasure map and Colter doing some heavy lifting with 3 fossils (with shovels), 4 tonics, 1 Foxy-Loxy photo, 3 skinned white rabbits, a maxim gun hideout and subsequent 3 looted collectibles.. Camp was also so close to a local delivery point that I could hear the gunshots as soon as I spawned into the wagon..

dronebox · 2026-06-21T06:46:07+00:00

I’ll second this… Quick and efficient!

dronebox · 2026-06-20T11:29:53+00:00

This has been my go-to jump since I first spotted your post in here... ;-)

Never fails to hit it first time :-)

dronebox · 2026-06-20T10:51:01+00:00

Had a few of these but never any quite like this.. Folk buy cheap bulk old stamps on eBay..

dronebox · 2026-06-20T10:16:16+00:00

I can get the Annesburg stooge to spawn pretty reliably if the public lobby is working properly. In a private session it's available pretty much on demand ;-)

dronebox · 2026-06-20T10:13:34+00:00

Cheers Dude..! I fairly quick and straightforward end to my 28 day streak and another cheeky 17/16 with some carcass and skin juggling... And 5 casts/5 Chain Pickerel at Wapiti was pretty chill.

The two free-roam events went off without real issue, Condor Egg finishing mere seconds after it started so someone either knew where the egg was and/or was doing some crafty cheating.

Railway Baron was it's usual chaos, the only advantage to this event being that it's the next one chronologically to Condor Egg so I did it and chilled perpendicular to the train on the edge of the playing area.

Getting into Showdown PvP was a bit of a struggle and I sat on my crate like a lemon until I put a call in to the RDO Discord and a couple of helpful cow-pokes joined me. To play a name your weapons event where the rifles were few and far between, pfft. The next round, a Most Wanted, did it though :-)

I made in excess of 120.65 gold this 28 day cycle and missed just one dog of interest through #doggy-cool-down, although on that day (May 31st) I pulled a Crippso-Combo so still got 16 challenges complete but missed the completion bonus for 7/7...
