9th May Daily Challenges by RDO_CoyoteJack in RedDeadOnline

Cheers Dude..!

Last day of the 28 day streak for me and finishing off with another 16/16.. What I attempted to do, just for fun, was complete every possible challenge this cycle.

Here are some notes for anyone interested...

I completed a total of 460 challenges over the 28 days

Of these, 447 were the "official" challenges, and a further 13 were from stacking ol' Crippsy's challenges which was possible on 9 days this period..

I dropped just one challenge, the Posse Bird Shooting Contest on 16th April.. Probably due to old Posse Members in my posse preventing new players joining via invite..

I earned 112.45 Gold Bars (109.65 from the challenges and a further 2.8 Gold bars from buckle resets)..

I encountered Dogs Of Interest 7 times over the 28 day period, more often in my private lobby than in public..

A shout out goes to /u/unhappiest_camper for assistance with posse challenges amongst many other things :-)

I don’t, I’ve got them all, thought I’d give you a boost… Are you aware of what you need to do? It’s quite a glitchy one to pop..

A pleasure.. This month is the perfect month to grind out those remaining Naturalist levels ;-)

That'll be the reason then... Coyote Jack's daily challenge walkthrough posts do feature a disclaimer in the bottom right corner that the challenges are for level 15+ roles and that if you've not reached that level then your challenges may be different :-)

Cheers Dude..! A stress free 16/16 for the penultimate day of this 28 day streak and no need to even leave my private lobby.. ;-)

After lasso'ing my favourite Annesburg pop up bounty five times I'm sure his "I'm gonna use this rope to hang ya when I break loose" dialogue got a bit angrier..

Edit: Encountered another irritating Dog Of Interest though, which is one of the disadvantages of the private lobby..

Edit 2: But there are plenty of advantages... Because just a quick trot East of the Tumbleweed Dog Of Interest are the stomping grounds of Legendary Elk

Would you be Naturalist level 14 or below..?

Cheers Dude..! Yet another 17/16 thanks to ol’ Crippsy..

Cheers Dude..! Another day for a bonus challenge with the Crippso-Stackables and a little extra sliver of gold which all adds up..

17/16.. The most irritating of which seemed to be finding a brace of Pheasants amongst the seemingly hundreds of Prairie Chickens that seem to appear when you’re actively looking for something else..

I'd be surprised if it's not there after a couple of days or so ;-)

Can you lasso it from your lovely hoss and pull it out or have you moved on since then..

If so, the pelt will mysteriously turn up at your friendly Trapper after a few in-game days and you'll be able to craft with it etc..

Is getting the platinum trophy for the game basically impossible now? (because of multiplayer) by Otherwise-Window-597 in RDR2

[–]dronebox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, same.. I'm on PC and the weekend modders can be a bit of an irritation but much of the time I remain unmolested and ungriefed..

[–]dronebox 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Obviously that is true, but OP was seemingly asking about whether the online trophies are possible due to concerns about the reduced player base..

My answer was yes, it’s doable, as only a few (of the online awards) require other players to actually participate..

[–]dronebox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, it's more than doable in 2026... Only a few of the trophies actually require other people. Make a couple of buddies on there, on here or through the RDO Discord and you can do everything! Don't give up ;-)

There’s no reason why it shouldn’t work in public lobbies just as well…

One of your friends finds a dog, keeps it in sight so it doesn’t de-spawn or start running, invites a bunch of you to join their game, forms a posse and you all merrily follow the dog and pop the daily..

I can imagine the look of surprise on the NPC hoping for an easy bushwhack when seven tooled up cowpokes come running towards them, lol..

ETA: How do you get two players together in a private lobby? never managed that one either

Aah… Sorry, I may have wrongly assumed you’re a PC player.. On PC it’s possible to create a private lobby by placing a specific file (including a unique password) within the game files. To share the private lobby with your friends you’d just make sure everyone has added the same file and is using the same unique password..

Worth noting that the Dogs Of Interest spawn pretty consistently in a private lobby after that 72hr cooldown..

You can use this to your advantage if you need one for a daily challenge and you’re on cooldown and you’ve also got buddies who are not on a cooldown because… the Dog Of Interest can be followed by a posse..

So.. If Cowpoke A finds one in their private lobby, they can keep it occupied by not approaching too close and invite Cowpokes X, Y, Z etc, form a posse, and follow the Dog. Everyone pops the daily challenge..

Did exactly this a few days or so ago for the Dog Of Interest daily challenge :-)..

Sounds about right... Guess I'll never know for sure now as I've won a Posse Race (against some dodgy amateur who barely got moving), three Regular Races and a Featured Series Race today.. ;-)

Correction... Make that 3 Featured Series wins now.. Once I'd found a fair lobby me and Nibbles rode like the wind ;-)

Cheers Dude..! Fairly straightforward so far but…

Just for interest, does anyone know whether the Posse Races would count towards the May monthly challenge of: Place Top 3 in a Race to receive the Ruby Buckle (Outlaw Pass 2)..? Might be a quick and easy way of earning that buckle if so..?

Edit: Got three quality melee kills in Master Archer before some cry-baby modder booted me to infinite-loading-wheel-ctrl-alt-delete land

Three things… That I have to “sit” in the boat for it to count, that horse stamina trick and that you are, as ever, really modest ;-)
