Red Dead Online Daily Challenges
Today’s Daily and Role Challenges – 17 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…
Vultures
Armadillo and the surrounding area is a good place to hunt Vultures. Check around the town and also along the railway line heading north. You can see Vultures parched on the poles that run parallel to the train tracks. The rock in the middle of the circular path north of the town is another good place to check. Hunt for them until you have shot and plucked the three needed to complete the challenge.
Wild Carrots
There is a patch of wild carrots where the word “Armadillo” is on the map. There is a patch directly where the letter ‘M’ is. Pick all the carrots here then head directly north. There is another patch of Wild Carrots just a few paces away from the first. You should have the five needed for the challenge, but if you need more there is another patch just above the letter ‘D’.
Mount Hagen
Mount Hagen is in Grizzlies West in Ambarino. The Peak of the mountain is where the end of the path is on the map, just under the word Mount. Set a waypoint for the end of the road, set off and go into cinematic mode and let your horse take you to the top of the mountain.
Finishing Off
Head back to camp and use the Wilderness Outfitters store to change the theme of your camp. Posse Up and have the leader start an Infighting match form the Posse Versus Menu. Get three player kills while playing the match. Grab your bow and head into a Free Roam Event. Get three player kills with the bow. That’ll do it for today…
Good Luck out there!
Quick Guides
1 CAMP THEMES UPDATED – Head to camp and talk to Cripps at the Wilderness Outfitters. Change your camp theme. If you have already updated it, you can switch between purchased themes and it will count.
3 PLAYER KILLS IN POSSE VERSES – Form or join a persistent posse with another player and have the leader start up a PvP posse verses such as posse infighting. Kill the other posse members 3 times.
3 PLAYER KILLS WITH A BOW IN FREE ROAM EVENTS – Free roam events happen every 45mins make sure you’re in a free roam lobby when one is due to start. Equip your bow before the event starts and get 3 kills. Dynamite arrows count
POSSE INFIGHTING COMPLETED – Join a posse and have the posse leader start posse infighting via the Posse Versus Menu
VISITED THE PEAK OF MOUNT HAGEN – Climb to the top of Mount Hagen in Grizzlies West, Ambarino.
3 VULTURES PLUCKED – My go to spot for Vultures is the circle of road North of Armadillo. One also spawns fairly regular on top of the covered bridge going into Tumbleweed
5 WILD CARROTS PICKED – Wild Carrots can be found all over the map. If you are really struggling to find them, all 5 can be found just south of Blackwater between the road and the lake.

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.
