Red Dead Online Daily Challenges
Today’s Daily and Role Challenges – 18 May
Here are today’s Red Dead Online daily challenges and role challenges, along with quick guides for the individual challenges and a general guide to help you get today’s challenges done quickly.
Daily Walkthrough
Starting in New Austin today folks!
We can start in Armadillo for the challenges today. We can hunt vultures and pick the wild carrots. Let’s get into it…
Condors
Start in Tumbleweed. There are condors that fly around the deserts around the town. There is usually one as you come down the hill heading east out of town towards Cholla Springs. You’ll spot it near the railway tracks. Rathskeller Fork is another good place to find one. It’s parched on the eastern entrance to the compound. The cliffs north of Benedict Point are another good place to check, also the desert to the south near Scratching Post. Shoot and pluck two to complete the challenge.
Eagles
There are several spots in the south of Gaptooth Ridge and Rio Bravo where eagles perch. There are four cliffs in a U-shape that go from Gaptooth Breach, down, round past Scratching Post and then up to Benedict Point. All four of them have points where eagles perch on the western side of the rocks. If you see the eagle, shoot near it to spook it into flight, then shoot it and it will drop to the ground ready to pluck.
Finishing Off
Jump over fences, fallen trees or rocks until you have completed ten vaults on horseback. Sticking with jumping, jump from your horse to another horse. Head up to Strawberry and visit one of the shops. Grab your rifle and wait for an invite to a Free Roam Event. Join then get the three player kills with the rifle. Lastly, play a match of the Featured Series, which is the Contrast Series today. That’ll do it for today…
Good Luck out there!
Quick Guides
2 CONDORS PLUCKED – Condors can be found flying in the skies of New Austin. They are fairly common and easy to spot. Check the road heading east out of Tumbleweed near the train tracks. Fort Mercer is also a good spot
1 EAGLES PLUCKED – My go to spot is the cliffs next to Scratching Post, NA. It spawns between dawn and midday. Look up on the cliffs
FINISH A MODE IN FEATURED SERIES – Load into the Featured Series Showdown mode from either the main menu or the quickjoin menu. You will have to play a match from the pre game lobby for this to count
1 JUMPED FROM A HORSE TO ANOTHER HORSE – Ride alongside another horse and when prompted, press the button to jump onto the horse you are riding alongside. NPC’s horses are fine for this.
3 PLAYER KILLS WITH A RIFLE IN FREE ROAM EVENTS – Free Roam events happen every 45mins. Make sure you’re in a free roam lobby to be invited. Also make sure you have your rifle equipped before you join and then use it to kill 3 players.
10 VAULTS ON HORSEBACK – Simply find a fence, fallen tree or rock that your horse can jump over and jump over it 10 times. Easy Gold!
VISITED A SHOP IN STRAWBERRY- Simply head over to Strawberry and go to one of the shops or butchers. Easy Gold!

What are Daily Challenges in Red Dead Online?
Red Dead Online Daily Challenges are a set of tasks that change every day at 6am UTC. Challenges include things like killing three players with a rifle in showdowns or skinning an alligator. There are 7 general challenges and up to 3 Role specific challenges per Role. The payout for completing these challenges is 0.1 gold per challenge. There is also a bonus of 0.3 gold for completing all of the general challenges and 0.3 for completing 9 of the role challenges. The role challenges are capped at 9, even though there are potentially 15 available challenges. The best thing about daily challenges is you can earn a multiplier by completing at least one challenge a day. Building a streak will reward you with up to a 2.5x multiplier. So for completing all challenges you can earn a staggering 5.5 gold a day!.
- 0-7 Days (no multiplier): 0.1 gold per challenge, 2.2 bars max
- 8-14 Days (x1.5 multiplier: 0.15 gold per challenge, 3.3 gold max
- 15-21 Days (x2.0 multiplier): 0.20 gold per challenge, 4.4 gold max
- 22-28 Days (x2.5 multiplier) 0.25 gold per challenge, 5.5 gold max
As you can see, this is an excellent way to earn gold, especially if you can dedicate a month to play every day. If you were to max out all 7 regular challenges every day for a month you would have 49 gold bars form just challenges alone. That’s enough to buy all three Frontier Pursuits Roles. Or put another way, almost $20 of real world money.
