Red Dead Online Daily Challenges
Today’s Daily and Role Challenges – 18 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 Camp today folks!
We can start in our own camps for the challenges today. We can get drunk, lead our horse then head out to hunt, fish and find The Boy. Let’s get into it…
Camp
Start off at camp and update the theme of your camp. This is done via the Wilderness Outfitters store which is accessed at the stool where Cripps sits at the main wagon. Next to that stool there is a crate of beers. Drink five to get drunk, then lead your horse while you sober up.
The Boy
The Boy is one of the strangers. He can usually be found at Flatneck station but is also sometimes in Valentine at the camp near the butcher. Open your map and look for his icon. Travel to him, speak with him then accept and complete one of the missions he has available. If you can get some of the long range kills while you do the mission, even better.
Finishing Off
Depending on where you finish the mission, head to Flat Iron Lake or the Dakota River and use live bait, like worms or crickets, to catch five fish. Head into The Heartlands or Cumberland Forest to hunt for deer. Lastly, if you didn’t manage to get them all in the mission, get the remaining long range kills. 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.
4 DEER SKINNED – Deer are fairly common over most of New Hanover, West Elizabeth and Lemoyne. Scarlett Meadows, Big Valley and to the East of Emerald station are all good spots. Please note that Pronghorns do not count. It has to be Whitetail’s. A Whitetail Buck will count though. Find ’em, shoot ’em and skin ’em.
DISTANCE TRAVELED LEADING OWN HORSE – Walk up to your horse, focus on it and press the lead button. Walk the distance required leading your horse by the reins.
5 FISH CAUGHT WITH LIVE BAIT – Catch fish using your fishing rod and live bait (worms or crickets). These can be bought from the bait shop.
5 NON-PLAYER ENEMIES KILLED AT LONG RANGE – Revenue Agents, Trader Resupply NPCs and Del Lobos are good for this. Pick a spot at range and pick them off. A scoped rifle will help. You can tell if they count as distance kills as an XP award notification pops up.
1 THE BOY MISSIONS COMPLETED – The Boy is one of the strangers. He can be found at Flatneck Station. Ride up to him, accept and complete the mission he gives you.
1 TIMES BECAME DRUNK – Head to a camp or a saloon and drink until you’re drunk! It takes 5 beers to get drunk.

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.
