Red Dead Online Ultimate Moonshiner Guide, How To Make Money With The Moonshine Business

[@theprofessional155]

I hope this helps people out. I am sorry this took a week to make. I wanted to fully level up the moonshine role. Does anyone have any questions or concerns about the business?

[@haydnscales3404]

no i stop for no one

[@ICETEEBAG]

FYI that last point about having fortification for health, stamina, and deadeye it also applies to unflavored moonshine. unflavored moonshine that you pour from behind the bar will show as the following weak moonshine: this only fortifies your health and can also be gotten from the cask against the wall near the bar. average moonshine: this will fortify your health and stamina strong moonshine: this will fortify your health, stamina and also your deadeye I have been taking advantage of this sometimes by drinking a strong moonshine before starting a mission since the fortification lasts for 30mins which is long enough to do a mission or two. Good to do that for sales as well.

[@dylanshrewsbury3750]

the free band upgrade is ps exclusive

[@21stCenturyNephilim]

I made a comment outside this reply but, the bar has almonds for health core, coffee for stamina and dead eye and the moonshine fills up the various stat (health, stamina and dead eye) levels depending on the strength. So it's a good spot to fill up before missions outside camp. Great video Pro!

[@21stCenturyNephilim]

I've can poison 2 stills in the Grizzlies successfully every time. Bow and arrow and the right angle of approach. I don't mind the terrain in the Grizzlies as long as you take it slow and use aim driving after I pass the checkpoints.

[@Shtedko]

If u aim ur weapon while riding the wagon it enables autopilot. When the agents come u can just easily re-click aim to lock on and kill them, all while ur wagon still follows the road without destroying moonshine. Just speed up before u autopilot so it drives at max speed (and slows on turns). Please like this so others can see

[@GRENZG]

finally someone else knows that and uses it, i have watched tons of rdr streamers and none of them have used it

[@Simetrico]

This exactly, actually when i left the horses ride the wagon i actually deliver all the bottles and the agents that chase you rarely can catch your wagon pace so you can easily pick them one by one

[@Shtedko]

[@yannicknaert]

Dr Giraffes that’s how I do it, I always hop off and kill the agents, no chances and piece of cake.

[@dizzeeb1407]

Dr Giraffes Small addition to a great tip: if u use cinematic view before the road block, you drive past it (also in autopilot). The agents won’t stop you then.

[@Godfather9814]

Sketchy I think so, only need ingredients and looting bodies especially moonshine mission related you’ll get them. Plus once it’s supplied it’s done until it’s time to sell and it gets done faster too and if you have the shack in the bayou the sales are so easy

[@shane1489]

My only complaint with the bar is that they aren’t playing when you enter. It’s a little odd to walk into a quiet moonshine bar while a full band is sitting around doing nothing until you tell them to play.

[@JWitt30]

If you walk up to the piano player there's a prompt to have them start playing.

[@UncleTwoTimez]

I actually think the opposite. Non stop music from the band was sure to get on my nerves

[@raphmateus]

I agree with OP... They're just sitting there. There should be an option in the properties menu to set to band playing all the time or only on demand for example. So people who like it quiet can have their quite.

Reason why Bayou is a good location: 1: the roads are relatively flat with no obstructions on the road like rocks 2: there’s 3 ingredients behind the shack you need to make a certain flavor (I’m drawing a blank on what they are, but one of them is some kind of berry and the other is the vanilla plant on the tree)

[@ibraheimrahman8253]

[@nitricfox7895]

ALWAYS LOOT THE DEAD PIECES OF CODE anything and everything

[@raphmateus]

You have some missing information, gonna lay out a few missing tips: - bootlegger missions reduce mash cost by 20$. Except specific mission like stealth and destroy enemy camps... If you don't manage stealth or manage to destroy all 5 materials from the enemy camps but you still complete those missions, you get 10$ reduction. - story missions also reduce your mash cost. You can replay them, in hard mode. The good thing is... You can start them from the menu. So it's very easy to do a bootlegger mission and right after start a story mission and you'll respawn back in the moonshine Shack with 10$ mash cost. I always do the boat mission. As it's rather quick, you can skip cutscenes and get tones of headshots and train your carcano, Rolling block kills. So, tons of xp! - depending on your area, setting camp close to shack will allow you to spawn in camp and have a short ride OR if you have the fast travel, it will cost usually 1$, it can go up to 3$ if the game decides to spawn your camp a bit further. Solo players can take advantage of this... If you don't mind switching lobbies constantly and you have fast internet, that's a free fast travel every single time to your camp. Menu > online > camp. - drinking from main bar delays mash production - not efficient !! But when your mash is finished and you sell the batch, you can actually still have a few minutes of flavoured strong moonshine in the main bar! So take advantage of that before launching a new mash production and heading out to do a legendary bounty or other activities. Otherwise drink weak moonshine from the barrels on the side. - Extremely pro tip if you have friends... Make them stay out of the posse and clear revenue agents for you... The amount they get from the sell is irrelevant!! They're better off killing and looting guards for you as they have a chance of getting collectibles. And usually it doesn't spawn further revenue agents since you didn't attack them yourself. And if the game still spawn them, your friend(s) can have more headshots and looting. That way... Just go into cinematic mode and slowly tap x and enjoy a perfect delivery. - crazy pro tip that might be 'patched': when looting during all those bootlegger missions you can sometimes stack on some items you usually sell in a fence... Well, even if you already have the moonshine business you can still go in the menu (rewards I believe) and you'll have the option to : "become a moonshiner". Also sometimes when you start the game... I know you're already a moonshiner but that's a free lobby hopping to Emerald Ranch.... To sell items in the fence or fast travel from new Austin if you're a solo collector :) - if you still have a black screen quitting as soon as you know something is wrong is better than waiting and quitting... Doing the join friend can sometimes unfreeze your black screen as well. Those are all the tips I have from the new moonshiner update. If I forgot some, put it in the comments.

[@chrisiverson257]

$20 deduction if Main objective complete. Otherwise just $10. Did poison still all in stealth and got $20 off mash.

[@raphmateus]

@@chrisiverson257 yes exactly 👌

[@raphmateus]

@dawood hassan before buying mash. I haven't had my price being affected by changing lobbies. It appears to be time based rather than server based

[@Asufiku]

The join friend and cancel thingy works so well I've never failed a sell since then

[@funkyfreak97]

For those on PC who can't do the join friend trick, I've only been able to test it once out of the few times I've had the infinite load bug, but I managed to not lose my product on a failed load for the sale once by forcing the game to drop me from the session by disconnecting my internet. I think alt + F4 and 'end task' through task manager tell the game you quit during the sale, but the disconnect can't be determined on their end or yours. Again, I have only tested it once, but disconnecting my internet for a few seconds is the only way I haven't lost my product to an infinite load.

[@21stCenturyNephilim]

The bar has almonds for your health core, coffee for your stamina and dead eye cores and moonshine to to fortify either health with weak shine, or like Professional said, more with the stronger types. In other words it's a good place to ready up for missions outside your camp.

[@Vasanum777]

The thing I hate about revenue agents is that when they spot my moonshine they aim at the wagon. Who cares that you're shooting them, gotta stop you from making money

My guess is that Rockstars programming works similar to their GTA5 programming, any surface not being asphalt is basicly count as offroad, same in RDO, when you're not on a road the game thinks you are offroad even is the surface is flat, they have that coding set to true and not false, if (true), then it will notice when you go offroad and punish you accordingly. It's indeed dumb but that's how they write the code.

[@user-mx4np2pd3j]

Since I got the upgrade for 2 buyers for my moonshine I have never even looked at the buyers two hour rotations. I have done 10+ sells at max level and have always had buyers that pay me max money. Before that upgrade it was an issue but don't worry about buyer rotations at max level. Also I have done 5/5 20 bottle sells by going at the slowest walking pace the whole way with all 5 times passing the revenue agents with ease. I always make it on time to with a good two minutes to spare. I think that is how it was meant to be played. I have gone over bumps and rocks and rivers at the slow pace and never broke a bottle since. Also if you dodge the revenue agents road block they will send goons after you so always go through. To go the slowest I never go to cinematic or aim down sights. I hit A once and then hold and have had all bottles intact. Think of the pace Gandalf was going at when he entered the shire on his fireworks wagon (was not fire works....he was delivering moonshine). Only problem with going slow is potential griefers so keep your guns locked and loaded. One more thing about losing moonshine bottles glitch. I have lost around 5 batches and I believe it comes from A) Joining another posse and helping with there moonshine or selling a wagon. B) Joining a legendary bounty. C) Or selling a trader wagon of your own. Kinda sucks to have so many limitations but every time I have done one of these actions I lose my bottle production. I just work my camp and collect during the hour production. And as well Pvp showdowns seen to halt the production of moonshine.

I actually did a mission where I had to sneak and poison 6 stills in the swamps while at the same time it told me to steal a wagon of supplies. I wound up getting caught because all stills were being guarded with 3 npcs standing over the moonshine looking in all directions. After I blew them all up I got on the wagon and it instantly spawned me back at the heartlands moonshine shack with a cutscene. As soon as the cutscene ended, I spawned outside with a 10 min timer to go from heartlands/emerald ranch all the way to thieves landing. I charged across the map and got to the location with 1.5 min left, and it told me to deliver it to above valentine / strawberry. The mission was impossible to complete. This is just one example of how the update is bugged and doesn’t work. Also multiple times I’ve bought mash got the production to full and when I go to sell it the mission cancels and I go back to find I went from 20 bottles to 0.... the update sucks

[@fadedflame2537]

vincentnoto the update sucks... for you

[@vincentnoto]

FadedFlame the game is bugged beyond belief. If you think it’s running fine your blind. I want to love this game and I like a lot of aspects about it but it’s bugged. Most of the normal things like just loading in, finding animals, trying to complete the sell after you’ve delivered it and the timer just keeps going until it reaches 0 just to tell you you failed the sale even though you already delivered it... the framework of this game is broken. Rockstar has so much revenue from game sales and shark card/gold purchases yet they give us terrible quality updates. They aren’t fine tuned at all and it’s a slap in the face to fans that give money to them in support of their work. It’s a shame

[@diegosuarez8837]

I agree with stopping at the agents road block. Personally, I never stop, because there's a good tip to avoid the agents from respawning, which works on PC (not sure if it works on consoles), here's how: Kill them at first sight on the road block, by foot to avoid getting the wagon hit. Once you finish the killing spree, go ahead until the chasers spawn, stop, get off the wagon, kill them all but leave 1 of them ALIVE, then hogtie him or just leave. By doing this, they won't spawn anymore. Another tip for PC players (again not sure if it works on consoles): For the sales mission black screen, wait just for 1 minute. If black screen persists, restart the game. When you log back in, you'll have the full batch intact so you can try the selling mision again. Here's no batch penalty unlike in GTA online Closing the game sometimes work on trade selling missions too, if you destroyed the wagon by accident. I think this is a bug because sometimes your selling wagon appears empty. At least it worked for me on PC.

[@HarambetheWhite]

I kind of wish GTA businesses were ran like this and gave you the ability to reduce the cost of a resupply by doing biker work. So after completing let's say 4 contracts you can drop the resupply cost from 75,000 to 20,000 dollars for one of your operations. It would give the biker jobs more of a purpose and you could use the money from those jobs to fund your operations.

When the update came I didn’t have enough gold so when I was in the cutscene It auto declined but now I have enough gold so I go to benefits to try and become a moonshiner and it just gives me a forever loading screen...How do I fix this

[@CJones5050]

Go into your camp and properties menu in game (hit left d-pad and scroll down to it) then you should be able to purchase it a property.

[@griffinmartin3812]

I would recommend making the very cobbler moonshine since it doesn’t need a collectible and literally always has a buyer, so you don’t need to worry about the timer that much

[@orcams15lf71]

Don't forget any you have to the max you can sell them at the doctors and then pick them again for extra cash. A maxed out lot makes $7.50 each and then pick them again. I do that a lot. If I keep them all where they are maxed out and I find more where I can't pick them I feel as if that is costing me money so I sell them and pick them again. It would be nice if there was a doctors in Tumbleweed and Strawberry. There's only two. One in Valentine and another in Saint Denis. In RDR there was a doctors in Armadillo.

[@KM-jb3vg]

Always happy to see these guides thanks proffessional. Today was the first day I've been able to make a proper moonshine sale due to the endless loading screen glitch. So as I say now it seems to be working properly I'm very thankful for this guide so I can level it and start making good money from it. Passive bar income would've been nice

[@LadyOfDarkness2]

Thank you so much! This was VERY useful esp to me because the ordering and flavors and buyers IS so confusing like you said. RS doesn't explain anything and also my moonshine kept disappearing so the first few days everything I told a marcel to make when I came back to deliver it is was simply gone like I had never made any.....O_O It was very frustrating & I didn't know about the timer so I've barely been able to lvl up I just now got to lvl 10 so all this info will def help me a lot! Thanks!!

Aim you weapon as a driver. Makes it so much easier. Stop before agents, kill them all then get back on wagon. Only agents spawn from behind wagon. Easy kills.

[@Der_Bierbaron]

@@chrisiverson257 thanks for the tip, I'll give it a try. I also like that you can drive backwards (not sure if this was already implemented). Still, minor bumps leading to loss of moonshine is annoying. I just do it for variety anyway, you can earn more money and xp with the collector.

[@orcams15lf71]

Why am I suddenly getting wanted levels now when I'm doing bootleg missions? It's hard enough killing those revenue agents because they are so over-powered and when the screen rocks about when I'm going for head shots don't help, now I keep getting the lawmen coming after me as well and when there was no witnesses. Yesterday I went to destroy a moonshine operation in Thieves Landing and I got all the enemies from there coming after me as well and then I got a wanted level with lawmen as well. I wonder why is this game so broken. Last week I joined a game and a second later it said "grieving" on my screen when I never grieved anyone and another time when I joined, a second later it said, "murder" and I got a wanted level.

[@jge2319]

I'm sorry but the enemies always attack me when I stop so I'm not sure it's the rarest

[@logansiegersma4949]

The fact that the holidays are close and you have time to upload plenty of guides and helping people, such a legend! We all appreciate it man! 🎮💰😊

[@tarovb]

I recommend you get off the wagon at checkpoints (just before you reach it) and go and kill them all on foot. Keep in mind to not stray too far from the wagon, as it can fail you. This way you dont risk the wagon getting shot. Just stop short before you reach the agents, hop off and then kill them all, regardless of whether they're looking for moonshine or not. Also, make sure you dont hop off IN the checkpoint, as they will automatically shoot. Make sure you do it JUST before the checkpoint.

[@Chiikasaurus]

Meanwhile every time I've ever stopped for the agents, I get attacked. Most rare outcome, he says.

[@yannicknaert]

ESP87 all info on a dlc is usually out within the first week or so, especially with gta almost every full guide regarding a new property and relocation goes over what you lose, if you’re not sure about your location just wait 1 week next time, it can save you a lot of time.

[@emintd21]

This was a great question thank you.

[@yannicknaert]

You can sell unflavoured moonshine it just sells for less, once it’s distilled you can’t add flavours. The only reason to start producing without flavouring is to wait for the buyers to refresh so you’ll get a higher price on the sale, but if you miss that window of opportunity you’ll get a lot less for unflavoured moonshine.

[@raphmateus]

I find it very weak that the game can constantly charge you money for stable and camp upkeep, but the bar in the moonshine shack generates no constant cash flow? All those people in the bar stand around and drink for free? I say BS! We should be getting 40-50 dollars everyday from the bar.
