Red Dead Online Daily Challenges
Today’s Daily and Role Challenges – 28 August
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 Lemoyne today folks!
We can start in Rhodes for the challenges today. We can start in Rhodes for Opossums and bulrushes, then head north to Emerald Ranch before heading west towards Valentine. Let’s get into it…
Virginia Opossums
Start off in Rhodes then head into Scarlett Meadows. After nightfall, you can find possums in the wooded areas next to Ringneck Creek and east of Mattock Pond. Between the letters ‘O’ and ‘Y’ at the end of the word Lemoyne on the map is also another good spot to check for them. Find, shoot and skin two of them to complete the challenge.
Bulrushes
Mattock Pond and Southland Flats are a good place to look for bulrushes. There are some on the side near the railway tracks, some near the smaller pool and some in the north west corner of Mattock Pond. Plenty of chances to pick the five needed to complete the challenge.
Mutton
Ride north to Emerald Ranch and look for the sheep in the two pens opposite the largest one in front of the barn. There are lots of locals around who don’t take kindly to you slaughtering their livestock. If you want to avoid the law, wait for nightfall before killing and skinning the sheep. Save the mutton and head to a campfire. There is one at Carmody Dell, or you can use the one in Valentine near the butcher.
Oxen
Start off at Emerald Station. Ride down to Emerald Ranch and check the paddocks for an Ox. Guthrie Farm, just northwest of Emerald Ranch is also another good spot to look for an Ox. It’s usually next to the house. Carmody Dell. just to the northeast of Heartland Oil Fields is the next place to check. If you check these three spots chances are you’ll get the two needed for the challenge.
Creeping Thyme
Head west towards Valentine. There is a lot of Creeping Thyme just outside the town. Look on the map where the word Valentine is. There is a patch of Creeping Thyme above the middle letter ‘N’ then another below the letter ‘E’ and another below the letter ‘L’. There is more over to the south west, near the cabin. Plenty of plants to get the five needed to complete the challenge.
Finishing Off
Grab your Repeater and wait for an invite to a Free Roam Event. Use the Repeater to get three player kills, then play a Takeover Showdown and try to get a top three finish. That’ll do it for today…
Good Luck out there!
Quick Guides
5 COMMON BULRUSH PICKED – Bulrush can be found by the banks of ponds, rivers, lakes and streams all over the map. Just activate eagle eye near some water and chances are you’ll spot some
3 COOKED SEASONED MUTTON – You get mutton from sheep and rams. White hat you can hunt for Desert Rams in NA or there are Rams on the mountain slopes of Ambarino. Or black hat and go to Emerald Ranch at night. Head to a fire and season up that mutton and cook it.
5 CREEPING THYME PICKED – Creeping Thyme grows in thin soil near river banks or in sandy soil the Desert south of Tumbleweed is my go to spot.
2 OXEN SKINNED – You can find one Oxen at Guthrie farm, the little hamlet just below Heartland Overflow. Switch sessions to get both, or try the hamlet above Heartland Oil Fields
PLACE TOP 3 IN TAKEOVER SHOWDOWN – Takeovers are a group of PvP game modes and can be accessed through the main or quick join menus. Load into the series and try and place in the top 3
3 PLAYER KILLS WITH A REPEATER IN FREE ROAM EVENTS – Free Roam events happen every 45mins. Make sure your repeater is equipped and your in a free roam lobby when a PvP event is due to start. Join the event and get the kills

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.
