Yes I agree the prices are just a tad higher than I think they should be for how much income you can make even grinding to ass off, but I do understand ya can’t just make it super easy for everyone to get and also it makes ya pick and choose your path and what you buy and appreciate them more than if it was all easy to get

Love all your videos your a big help to new players to red dead online!

[@namelessnavnls8060]

Looks like the Nacogdoches Saddle or the Hooded Stirrups or BOTH were nerfed, they only give a combined -70% stam drain presently. Which isn't bad but a whole 15% less is still pretty substantial. I noticed the Boar Mother Hubbard special saddle gives a whopping -50% stam drain WITHOUT the stirrups, and the stirrups give -50% so combining the two is even better than what the Nacodoches was once. The biggest downside to this however is that the saddle is unlocked at rank 82.

[@datenope8803]

I got back into the game thanks to ur videos . Gracias

[@kstigerlily]

[@chainos2519]

[@Poke-ladd]

Honestly I was thinking of restating and making a min max build Like only using the Best healing items, food etc Only selecting some roles which are fun

[@Silliel]

So you recommend to buy first the bounty hunter license and then the collector license? Thanks a lot for your videos, there's a lot to do and explore and i get overwhelmed (I'm a new player), but thanks to your guidance I know what to do and I'm enjoying it so far! For PC players: i recommend you strongly to play on solo lobbies, the start up meta file works fine (I'm playing that way and I'm having no issues, I even dont have the stable bug). That way you can enjoy the game without crashes and griefers and modders. I recommend to have a solo lobby shared with friends so you can do the matchmaking missions, I'm currently waiting for friends to join so I'm not able to do them yet. Again, thanks a lot Cat!

[@redshirt49]

Bounty hunter license lets you grind for both gold and money at a reasonable pace. Getting this first means you're not slave to the daily challenges and treasure maps for your gold acquiring needs. That's why anyone would recommend bounty hunter first IF you intend on getting all the roles (and why wouldn't you?). If all you care about is cash, you go collector first.

[@op_werty]

[@Autiysm]

How did you get your horse to have the red mane and skin?

[@NorthSeaRaider]

While PiB is good in PvE I find it VERY handy when dealing with players at a distance. Headshots for days.

[@XxAizenxX187]

damn i had no idea about the beaver set gonna get that soon

[@danparker1976]

yeah its been around a right good while and i think you will like

[@Undeadnightmaretwo]

The only role I need is moonshiner and for gold daly challenges

[@Venkullix]

i had no idea the horse equipment actually gave buffs

[@grilledmerman6067]

Another great tip is buying dynamite at lvl 10 from the fence and going out to the swamp and killing fish. .4 gold every time you kill 20 side by side, since they still count for the hunting challenge and you can reset endless times. In a few hours you can get 15-20 gold bars

[@Pinguin2422]

If rs only adds new things to purchase would be so good. I dont need necessary new missions or something but new things to buy

[@redshirt49]

I prefer running Gunslinger's Choice over Eye for an Eye. Using the occasional tonic isn't enough for me to want to waste a skill slot on it. Similarly, running both Strange Medicine and Cold Blooded is overkill in most PvE situations save a few specific missions and game modes. Usually Cold Blooded on its own is enough. Usually. That's just me though, YMMV and people should use the builds that best suit their playstyle.

[@Dilenchik]

What's your opinion on the best dead eye ability card for pvp in the game ? If we talk about very high levels, no money limits in tonics or weapons.

[@robberkiid]

In my videos you can see me using level 3 dead eye , I can get 1 hit kills on people with a handgun, it’s definitely worth getting, nice video by the way

[@ZenithExe-ff1fu]

@@Tahsin365 playing in public lobbies makes you prone to crashing, due to all the junk caused by modders (unknown error and such). I play in a private lobby, you can search ways to do it on yt (not the lobby manager). The devs really need to add official private lobbies, like in gta.

I'm a fairly passive player and just wanted te mention to new(er) players that it's also possible to obtain your gold by just doing your (role) dally challenges. Keep your streak, try to max your (role) dailies and you'll be drowning in gold bars in no time :) Also: I think the beaver garment set + NWO is just cheating ... It doesn't count as a tip or 'must have' imo :)

[@derekwilhelm1555]

The only role i like doing when i did play it is collector its peaceful n if ur like me i try to avoid ppl since u cant be in a solo session so i always have defensive on just in case im not into pvp

[@FreddieBear1]

For me It's all about multitasking it all. Bounty Hunt + trader hunt for camp, collect a few samples, find or loot collectables and complete as many dailies as possible in the same mission. It's rare to do this, but sometime if you're very lucky you can complete all challenges (both roles and general) in only one bounty mission. Again rare, but very satisfying.

Upgraded cattleman and good aim is all you really need and a rifle also shotgun nothing more. Just buy them all if you're getting into this game for the first time though find out what works for you don't listen to someone else they don't have your same experience. All I wanted to say.

[@rollschuh2282]

it would have been good if you would have mentioned as well if you get it for free or alternatives you only get using the ultimate edtion. like if you have it, the varmint rifle iirc is free in RDO. same with pumpaction shotgun and volcanic pistol and you also get the throughbred horse. which i think is a good one. so in those cases it would be good to know if it is worth to still get a mustang for example or if the throughbred is good enough

[@Adventureisherebymine]

I do not recommend getting Mustang if you are very careful with handling your horse (don't make her trip over obstacles on purpose etc) and don't enjoy staying on your horseback during NPC shootouts. I have the elegant Black Chestnut Thoroughbred from Ultimate edition and she's so far my main horse until I find some truly brave horse who will let me trample predators :) I love getting into shootout with NPCs on horseback, and with use of consumables for replenishing horse health and sometimes take cover, this horse died just a few times (out of many successful fights). But I've bought one of Mustangs who has maximum stamina and health just to see how such horse lasts in such fights. I haven't had to use health replenishing consumables for her so far, and I very rarely have to use cover (if there are too many enemies and Mustang has most of her health bar depleted because I try to trample them all instead of shooting them) :) Also she can endure more abuse when I make her trip over obstacles. Once she even survived being hit by the side of the moving train (with just a little health core left).

[@UnicornPastelPrincess]

I just started this game again on my PS5, I still have my old account but I wanted to start a new one, already level 44 I don't have painted black I see no point in it as I don't PVP and am fine not using it in missions or on NPC out and about. the only role I wanted was collector So I did some mission to get the gold up at the time it was 5 gold bars off and just worked up my money to get over 1000 to get a Fox Trotter level it to 4 then I went and got the Collector saddle and my horse never runs out. just got the mental detector so I can start getting all that stuff, One thing that annoys me is how Rockstar went and changed the item so you can't get a full set of stuff in one day anymore, I know why they did it because they want people to buy Gold if you can't get enough $ but they also went and lowered the gold you go on daily, as well as taking off the unlimited daily streak. I spend most of my time in the races I don't really do anything else apart from collecting stuff and getting killed over and over by other players, even if I do the defensive mode am still getting killed I see no point it in, BUT it is funny Weeing off griefers the other say I don't know what they were trying to do, but I would get lassoed tide up and then they pick me up to take me somewhere but I keep giving up, so they drop my body and then wait for me to come back, and do the same, and I keep doing the same, till the point they got on mic shouting at me to stop giving up so they can do what they wanted. I said back, "No I have other things to do, sorry", to which they said back, "Stop being a party pooper", I couldn't help but laugh and say back, "says the level 400 just going around griefing people", it like they want us to feel bad for them because they can't do what they wanted. they tried 2 more times before giving up and just killing me over and over saying "If you had just played alone I wouldn't be doing this" So I just went into racing did a race or two and then came back out, the good thing about that is it is a good way to change lobby,

[@Barrythebarnabas]

Yeah idk why he even recommended paint it black because it’s literally terrible for pvp. All it does is teach you to become reliant on the game aiming for you. I’ve had good layers literally accuse me of cheating because they just do what 90% of players do and equip the most common basic ability cards but I experiment with different builds so they can’t one shot head shot me. Like other cards can either negate the lock if effect of dead eye entirely or simply make it irrelevant as a person can sustain a direct headshot and keep going
