Most Wanted Modes and Tips:
---------------------------
"Kill other players to rise up the leaderboard; the higher you get,
the more points you’re worth."
-=Tips for Most Wanted=-
* Before the match starts you can buy items to help you survive in the
"Provisions" section of the menu. You can purchase ammo and provisions
like Health Cure and Snake Oil.
* Run for the special weapons throughout the map.
The shotgun is especially effective.
* Chances are other people are running to kill the Most Wanted player
on the map. Try to use that to your advantage and pick off enemy
players as they scramble for that person.
* Never run in a straight line.
-=Tips for Hostile Territory=-
* Defending a point is just as important as capturing one.
Make note of the weapons that spawn in the point you’ve captured and
use them to your advantage to defend.
* Try capturing points on the outskirts of the map.
* Follow teammates if you’re having a hard time surviving.
* Sometimes you can overwhelm the enemy with numbers.
* Pick up special weapons littered around the map.
* Shotguns are especially powerful and are great for defending a point.
Tips for Shootout
* Unless you’re being guarded by friends, try not to be still for too long.
* Try to pick up better weapons as soon as you get into the match.
* Don’t run in straight lines.
Earning Gold Bars:
------------------
Written by ZER0_K%
Guide explains how to get Gold Bars for Free. Good for newer players.
-=Money but Gold=-
Protect your Rockstar Social Club Account with Double Authentication and Rockstar
will net you 10 Free Gold Bars. You can do that on their social club website
through your browser in security settings.
!This may not always be the offer so you need to look out on Rockstar's website
or in game information for when they revert the offer to 10 gold bars, as it
changes over time, however, I do advice you to protect all your accounts with
double authentication whenever possible, even at the cost of missing the 10 gold
bar opportunity!
Link your account to Amazon Prime. If you don't have it start a trial (or another
trial) but don't forget to cancel it before you are billed. Get your rewards,
very often a free role like right now. That is 15-25 gold bars saved (earned
and invested).
I suggest starting a trial only when the rewards are worth it, like free role
because this is one time only thing. Rewards arrive within 3 days but if they
don't you can ask Rockstar support to reimburse you. Then you will probably get
the role gold in gold bars and will be able to spend it on another role of your
choice if you wish so. Eventually, like months or weeks after that, you may get
your initial reward as well. So it would be double profit. DO NOT LIE to Rockstar
support. They can check and you'll be in trouble. Only contact them once the
time has run out (after 3 days have passed) I suggest live chat
If you are starting out a good way to get Gold is to do stranger missions. The
longer you complete them the more gold you get. Best results are gotten by playing
a mission for 30 minutes from its start. Countdown starts from the start of the
mission and not the timer.
Play showdowns, Online PvP mode that lets you earn gold. Accessed via ESC main
menu or L player menu quick join enable double security with email or phone for
10 gold bars.
Do at least 1 daily challenge for 2 weeks and then really unload and try to
complete as many as you can week 3-4.
Open treasure maps, you can get them as random loot, from trees (rare) and every
5 levels they are sent to your storage.
If you have bounty hunter, then do legendaries and spend half an hour on them
then you get nearly 0.5 gold bars too. The higher the difficulty the more you get.
Free Roam events give gold too.
And finally, RESET AWARDS in game for 0.4 gold bars. Awards are in ESC -> Progress
-> Awards. Sometimes they bug out and cannot be reset. If you get an award it will
show up as a tip during gameplay so you can just hold F1 to get to it without
going through menus. Then you can reset it and then hold ESC to return to game.
Moonshine Guide:
----------------
Written by rIsHu
Moonshining can be a lucrative Role in Rockstar’s Red Dead Online. Here is how to
be the best Moonshiner in the Wild West.
-=About Moonshine Role=-
Moonshining was a lucrative business back in the day. Named because the makers
would often work their stills under the light of the moon to avoid detection by
the authorities, this trade began as a way to avoid paying government tax on liquor.
Now it’s in Red Dead Online, too.
So, why do you want to do it? Well, to make money, of course. This is potentially
the best Role in the game in terms of pure money-to-effort ratio, as it mostly just
idles in the background. Still, there’s a lot to learn about making the perfect
batch of shine and this guide should teach you all you need to know.
-=How Do You Become a Moonshiner?=-
This is technically the most expensive Role in the game, as you have to first
purchase the Trader Role to be able to unlock it. Once you become a trader, you
have to complete one of three things:
* Reach Trader rank 5
* Complete a delivery
* Pay 5 gold bars in the progress section of the main menu
Completing a delivery is the easiest route to take, just do a local one and there
won’t even be other players bothering you.
Once you’ve passed one of the above milestones you’ll receive a letter telling you
about an opportunity on Emerald Ranch. Go to the new icon there and initiate a
cutscene. For the staggering fee of 25 gold bars, you can start a moonshining
business. If you can’t scrape that together there and then you can still start up
the business later, just go into the camp menu and purchase a moonshine shack.
-=What Does The Role Unlock?=-
Your gold will go towards your very own moonshining shack, complete with a secret
basement and bar. It’s the closest thing to a house we’ve got at the moment. Once
you rank up high enough you also unlock the best variants of the Norfolk Roadster
horse, a very good horse.
You also unlock Moonshiner story missions, which more Roles should definitely have
as they add a great amount of content and immersion. As well as the standard items
and weapon skins, you also get a nifty little hipflask, a band for the bar, and
flammable moonshine you can pour and set alight.
-=What Do You Actually Do?=-
Although this Role can be left almost completely idle, there’s a lot you can do,
if you’re so inclined. This is the first Role to introduce actual story missions,
though the legendary bounties sort of do, too. These missions will have you help
Maggie Fike – the ex-queen of shine and your new business partner – get revenge
on those who wronged her in the past. These missions are challenging and best
tackled with a posse, though they can be done alone. Once you’ve completed them
all you can redo them at higher difficulties, too.
You also unlock bootlegging missions, radiant missions that will see you poisoning
rival gangs’ stills and taking out revenue agents. They’re formulaic but offer
some fun gunfights, so there’s plenty of bodies to loot making this Role work
quite well alongside the Collector. The main reason to do these is to lower the
price of your moonshine ingredients.
-=How Do You Make Money?=-
This is by far the simplest Role to earn money from. All you have to do is go
into your basement, buy a base mash for your shine, throw in some added berries
if you want to make a better drink, wait 30-60 minutes, and then sell the finished
product. Most of the extra ingredients can be bought from the catalog, such as
canned fruit, and the berries and herbs you need are plentiful.
You’ll earn a fair bit from these deliveries, with stronger and flavored moonshine
being worth more than the weaker, plain stuff. Just be careful when you drive,
being reckless, going up and down hills, and getting the wagon shot will all spill
your precious product, meaning you have less to sell and therefore get less money.
-=How Do You Earn Experience?=-
This is a really easy Role to rank up, even if you’re playing alone. All the
missions earn a decent amount of XP, so be sure to play them all often. You can
even be asked to help a fellow moonshiner dispatch some revenue agents if you’re
in the area, which will net XP.
Just starting a batch of shine will give you some XP, as will completing a batch.
The most XP will come from completing a delivery of the stuff, but every little
helps, so it’s nice you get some boosts before you even try to sell.
-=Any Final Tips?=-
There are five locations you can choose to set up a shine shack. Obviously, the
Grizzlies is a tempting location from a role-playing perspective, but the steep
landscape and barren plantlife mean deliveries will be tough and ingredients will
be hard to forage. Tall Trees and the Bayou are probably best in terms of both
terrain and ingredient proximity, so those are the best.
Obviously, it’s more cost-effective to complete some bootlegger missions to lower
the cost of your mash before you start production. However, if you really just
want an idle money maker, you can just make unflavoured moonshine and still make
some money.
