Hi everyone, all the timestamps are in the description below the video as well as the link referring to the Free in Game Crafting Pamphlets useful for completing challenge 4 and 8! Cheers
bro i need help ive started a fresh new game and have about 4 days of grinding behind me im in chapter 2 still ive done the sean rescue mission and the bar mission with tommy but the improved tamahawk recipe just isnt showing up. Nothing seems to work ive reloaded the game replayed both missions but still no recipe pls i dont wanna give it up
Not bad, for the scavenger challenge, the quickest way is to drop some bait, herbivore bait works, once an animal comes to get the bait, kill it, the game will count that as a scavenger
Some good ideas, especially for the fishing challenges. One thing I've done for #7 is go to St Denis and do the side mission for the man that wants you to kill the rats in his bar. It's very easy to shoot the rats in that confined area, and you'll get 3 star carcasses for each one. Plus, you're not committing a crime, so there's no need to worry about witnesses. Until watching your video, I had no idea you could craft weapons while on horseback, as I've always set up camp to do it. Thanks! I definitely do that next time I play.
Yeah good tip there, I got that bar interaction twice but never on time for that challenge haha, but I like it to get 10 perfects rats for the trapper!
For #7; In Limpany, in the northern most half collapsed shack, you can shot the bats hanging close together all in a row from one of the beams. As long as you don’t get too close to scare them off, they won’t move in the daylight, at least. No need to chase or turn. Just point in the same direction and auto-aim will take care of the rest. As a bonus, all of your arrows should be in grouped together just inside with the pile of bats.
Jono! I completed this challenge for the first time. This guide is very helpful. The only thing I did differently for the fishing part was I went to the opposite riverbank for the channel catfish. I had no luck on the south side. Thanks so much.
Thanks alot, man. Thank to you I was able to complete all of these challenges under 3 hours. Something that took me almost a week in my first playthrough.
For 9 onwards I changed the controls, the last option accessibility hold to reel makes catching large fish so much easier. It was taking me me 20 to 30 minutes to reel in but with this took minutes. I got challenge 9 and 10 of the legendary fish done in less than 2 hours and by accident completed challenge 10.
I really hate how this game doesn't follow it's own rules for bait. For example it say's the corn bait is for catching Bullhead Catfish and Chain Pickerel but when I use it I only catch Rock Bass (which is suppose to be caught with cheese bait). So I switched to cheese bait and caught a Bullhead Catfish on my first try. So stupid. And thanks for another great guide Jono, your guides are the best.
Oh yeah defo, i feel like any bait does the trick! The weather and time of the day is supposed to affect your catch too but it doesnt seem to have a real impact. Now i just go to the area where the specie i want is and just fish hahaha
Great video, appreciate it. The 5 scavenger kills were simply not registered in my game, I had killed lots of them but the game still said 0 out of 5. So I put some predator bait in the middle of all those piled up dead animals there and the crows and foxes that came for that and got killed did get counted. So in case someone has the same problem as me and the game does not register the kills, use bait instead of a carcass. Worked for me. Thanks for the video!
@@stinkyliuuqz I was already in the middle of the challenge, the game just did not register the kills. After putting the predator bait between the carcasses of all the animals I had already killed it did register the kills. The challenge itself is extremely easy but if the game does not register the kill you are getting nowhere. The game still has a few more bugs, on PC at least, but nothing game breaking.
I can’t believe it man. I’m getting close to 100% completion in RDR2. The first game I’ll ever 100% hopefully. Only things I’ve left is getting the cigarette cards, the hunting requests and story missions - alongside some things found in NA exclusively.
Do you plan to finding all the cigarette cards? I don’t know if I will have the time or patience to get each and every one naturally. I’m debating on doing the easy method. 🤔
@@The_StrangeMan Ya, I can’t decide. One of the best parts of the game is exploration, which you need to do for the cigarette cards. Not really that rewarding just purchasing all of them. But, I want that 100% as well. I just don’t see how I will ever get it with the limited time I have to play.
@@The_StrangeMan Yeah I've done it once the buying cigarettes cards and sold the duplicate at the fence, you don't lose much money at the end, but I like to find them too!
Poor chickens! Although yeah, it is the easiest way now that I think about it. I did the 8 kills with small game arrows near the river south of Strawberry killing sparrows, songbirds, cardinals and woodpeckers. It wasn't hard but it definitely wasn't as easy as with the chickens.
On Survivalist 6, I’ve killed a deer, then 4 crows started to eat the carcass (waited a few secs for them start to feed), I’ve used a dynamite arrow, killing all of them at once, but it counted as only 1 kill
I just wish there was a faster way to swap from the fishing pole to a gun. Too many gators! Also, I caught the legendary gar up north of Caliga Hall. So that can happen.
I am at 95% on my Platinum run and I have already finished the Legendary Fish challenge. This missions are becoming so tedious I think this is finally going to be the one that makes me quit. I have no desire to do this one and turned off the game. I don’t know if I will turn it back on.
Good luck my friend, I was doing the challenges in the progress section and I saw that the survival section was closed, how can I fix it? I'm on the 3rd episode and I'm playing with Arthur
still going through these to prepare since I never got past challenge 4-5 (most I dont start at all), and can you try to do Survivalist 3 + one of the Hunter missions? Like getting 3 perfect rabbit pelts? or do those kills only count as one out of the two?
In challenge 5 the train came as soon as I got the fish , it killed me and my horse and I immediately closed the game so that it won't save the kill and it worked 🤭
Which prequests do I have to fulfil to be able to start the quest ‘A fisher of men’? How can this be triggered? I don't want to start a quest beforehand that is not required.
hey i got a quesiton for you jono, im doing the survivalist challenge 8 right now and i have all the ingredients needed for the improved tomahawk, but it says its locked in the crafting menu, ive also reset my game multiple times. do you need to be in chapter 3 to get it?
Hey I know this isn’t related to the video, but is it possible to still get the owl feather trinket in a low honor playthrough? Or do you have to have high honor for that mission?
The only constraint I know for that mission (Archaeology for beginners), is to not kill any guards to get the trinket; The mission should appear on the map no matter the honour level to my knowledge.
Hey rock bass are pretty common at Owinjilla lake, use a cheese bait and you should have better chances to get one; that's the thing with fishing in that game, you never know what is on the the line! Good luck
@@jonoingameSorry, I realized that I got the fish in the first location you showed in the video, I got the game in italian and I didn't know the italian name of the fish. Anyway, thanks for the helpful video.
Hey The challenge will unlock when you'll catch a bluegill while finishing, that's what happened for me as it didn't unlock automatically either.. Hope it helps. cheers
Hey, have you caught 3 blue gills with the fishing rode already? Cause normally the challenge unlocks once you catch 3 blue gills after that fishing mission with Jack.
Hey, the challenge will now only trigger once you do the Abigail mission where you go fishing with jack and get the fishing rode and first fishing tutorial; once the mission is completed then you can start the challenge
Hi everyone, all the timestamps are in the description below the video as well as the link referring to the Free in Game Crafting Pamphlets useful for completing challenge 4 and 8! Cheers
Thank you, can you do a video were you show how to craft all the satchels as Arthur?
Sorry for my bad english, it's not my native language
@@joelitti_mdccclxi Hey, yeah it's a big video to make, i'm in the process of putting a game plan for it, cheers!
@@jonoingame thanks

@@eds1942 Yeah especially if you have the corpse in limpany, you'll have a bunch of rats there.
@@jonoingame Yeah, I noticed that today when I swung by to see if the gold bar respawned.
For #7;
In Limpany, in the northern most half collapsed shack, you can shot the bats hanging close together all in a row from one of the beams. As long as you don’t get too close to scare them off, they won’t move in the daylight, at least.

Good to know for sure! I always go to elysian pool for bats and limpany for rats! You're saving me a trip to Murfree territory haha
@@jonoingame This video series is the best.

Thanks alot, man. Thank to you I was able to complete all of these challenges under 3 hours. Something that took me almost a week in my first playthrough.
I know you probably won’t see this but I just wanted to say thanks for helping me get closer everyday to 100%

@@punpun8442 yes
I never realised that was a setting. It made catching so much faster tysm

Thanks my friend! Already done most of these but I’m definitely going to come back to this video when I run another play through!
Yeah it's less of a tricky challenge and it's quickly done; it's just the last one getting the 15 species of fish that needs a bit of patience haha
Thank you so much Challenge 7 had me stumped for so long
Man...that's alot of things to do but you have made the journey way shorter. Excellent ! Thank you kindly
Haha yeah some of those challenges are tedious for real i still have a couple to finish on my current playthrough.

@@CFarnwide not sure if I’ll do it. But I guess I’ll buy premium cigarettes before Epilogue and spend all my money 😂

@@CFarnwide true. I love exploration in the game. Just going around and being distracted by other pieces of content in the game is quite fun!
@@The_StrangeMan Yeah I've done it once the buying cigarettes cards and sold the duplicate at the fence, you don't lose much money at the end, but I like to find them too!
Great guide. It works! Thanks for all of your hard work.
Thanks!! And glad the videos helped out!
I found it’s easiest to complete challenge 10 by going around and catching all the legendary fish
Yeah you can do too if you started that mission but not sure it's available in chapter 2 though, I'll have to check. cheers
@@jonoingame odd… I just noticed I wasn’t subscribed! Sorry about that, thought I was.
Thank you thank you thank you
Poor chickens! Although yeah, it is the easiest way now that I think about it. I did the 8 kills with small game arrows near the river south of Strawberry killing sparrows, songbirds, cardinals and woodpeckers. It wasn't hard but it definitely wasn't as easy as with the chickens.
I usually kill toads and frogs just north of St. Denis
A very nice layed back set of challenges after yhe Hell that was Gambler challenges 8 and 9 never again
I didn’t catch a single bluegill when doing ‘a fisher of men’ so I was really confused why it was locked 😂
Haha yeah the game doesn’t really tell you when and what you need to do to start that challenge!!
On Survivalist 6, I’ve killed a deer, then 4 crows started to eat the carcass (waited a few secs for them start to feed), I’ve used a dynamite arrow, killing all of them at once, but it counted as only 1 kill
That's strange, should defo had counted for 4!!
You have to kill an animal scavenging a corpse on five different occasions, not just kill 5 animals scavenging a corpse. It’s not very clear ik
@@chronic_leuk7463 Yeah no going around too easy on this one haha at least it's not a hard one to do anyway.
I just wish there was a faster way to swap from the fishing pole to a gun. Too many gators!
Also, I caught the legendary gar up north of Caliga Hall. So that can happen.
many thanks from saudi arabia🇸🇦 😌🫡

In challenge 10, stop at fish 12. What is the solution?
In challenge 5 the train came as soon as I got the fish , it killed me and my horse and I immediately closed the game so that it won't save the kill and it worked 🤭

Came here and not a single fish
U have yo get special fishing rod
Hey I got the fishing rod before the boy- fishing mission and caught more than 3 bluegill. Still not able to unlock the #1 challenge.
Hey, yeah the challenge wont unlock before that mission, i tried fishing too before doing it and it wasn’t working unfortunately.
I can't find a rock bass, I can only find perch and bluegills

For challenge 9, couldn't you just catch a legendary fish?
So this challenge can’t be done until you have completed the fisher of men mission?
Unfortunatly nope at this stage; i tried many ways and it didnt work.
@@jonoingame hello, do you know why I don't unlock the challenge yet even when I'm in chapter 4? I caught three fishes in the mission
Im in chapter 3 but still this challenge is locked??
If you catch a blue gill it unlocks it. I had the same thing saying it was locked but then I went fishing and it unlocked once I caught one.
Bro for number 5 there was no boat?!?
Soundtrack name plz..
Can we skip challenges and do some? To get a specific thing?
How to unlock the survivalist challenge if it does not unlock on the story mission?
Just fish a bluegill
Music?
I'v already finished cheaper 2 and the challenges are still locked . Please help!!! trying to get all the challenges done
