Red Dead Online Daily Challenges
Today’s Daily and Role Challenges – 4 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 gila monsters and peccaries here, then head to Lemoyne before finding Joe. Let’s get into it…
Banded Gila Monster
Starting in Armadillo, ride west out of town into the desert where the word Springs is on the map. Between here and Jorge’s Gap is a good place to hunt for gila monsters. So is next to the train tracks heading north out of the town. When you spot one, shoot and skin it to complete the challenge.
Collared Peccaries
Staying in the region where the words Cholla Springs are on the map, hunt here for Peccaries. You should easily find one, if not a group of these wild pigs in the desert. Shoot and skin it to complete the challenge.
Crustaceans
Travel over to Rhodes then head to the largest of the islands on Flat Iron Lake. On the shore of the island you will find Cuban Land Crabs. This is the only place I know that you can find these crabs. Shoot and collect them then use the satchel menu to break down the carcasses to get crustacean meat. Head back to the mainland and use a campfire to season and cook the meat.
Joe
Joe is one of the strangers. He has a cabin just to the east of Emerald Station. Head over to him, walk into the cabin and speak with him. Accept and complete one of the missions he has available.
Finishing Off
The Telegram Mission, Rich Pickings is great for stealth kills. Posse Up and get a boat. Row the distance needed then stock up on explosives and head into a Showdown. That’ll do it for today…
Good Luck out there!
Quick Guides
BANDED GILA MONSTER SKINNED – Banded Gila monsters can be found in the deserts of New Austin. Find one, shoot it, skin it.
1 COLLARED PECCARIES SKINNED – Collared Peccaries are native to New Austin. My go to spot is just north of Ridgewood Farm, under ‘Cholla Springs’ on the map
1 COOKED SEASONED CRUSTACEAN – The islands on Flat Iron Lake have crabs on the shore. Get over to the island and kill, collect then break down to get crustacean meat. Pick up some herbs if you don’t have any then head to a fire. Season up that meat and cook it
DISTANCE TRAVELED IN A BOAT WITH A POSSE MEMBER – Find a boat. The little canoe boats hold 2 players. Flat Iron Lake between Rhodes and the islands is a good place to get one. Get you and a posse member into the boat and travel the distance.
1 JOE MISSIONS COMPLETED – Joe is one of the strangers. He can be found to the east of Emerald Ranch. Speak with him, accept and complete a mission.
5 NON-PLAYER ENEMIES KILLED WHILE NOT SEEN – Kill NPCs stealthily. Your Bow & throwing knives are your friend here. Thieves Landing is a good location in free roam. Also the legendary bounty hunter missions or the story mission ‘Where your morals lead you’ is good for stealth kills
3 PLAYER KILLS WITH EXPLOSIVES IN SHOWDOWNS – Load into a Showdown and kill players with dynamite. It will only count if you are in the lobby before the match starts. Takeover and Shootout series seem to be most reliable.

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.
