Red Dead Online Daily Challenges
Today’s Daily and Role Challenges – 5 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 West Elizabeth today folks!
We can start in Blackwater for the challenges today. We can pick golden currents and hunt bison and squirrels from here. Let’s get into it…
Golden Currants
Start in Blackwater. Look on your map at the word Blackwater. There is a patch of golden currents right where the letter ‘T’ is. There is another patch between the letter ‘C’ and the letter ‘K’ and then, should you not already have all five plants needed for the challenge; there is another just below the letter ‘L’. There should be more than enough to complete the challenge in these three spots.
Bison
Head out of Blackwater and into Great Plains. Where the letter ‘L’ is in the word Plains on the map there is usually a herd of bison grazing. Have your rifle at the ready and try and get two of them before they all run off. Once you have downed two of them, skin them both to complete the challenge.
Squirrels
Tall Trees is a good place to hunt squirrels. They are all over the region. Just south of Manzanita Post is a good place to check, so is the loop of road half way between Bear Claw and Thieves Landing on the map. Most of the squirrel spawn points are along the road so if you ride around the region slowly, you should spot and collect two without too much trouble.
Finishing Off
Ducks and Rabbits are a good source of game meat. Take the meat to a campfire, there is one at Manzanita Post, and use the fire to season and cook the meat. Posse Up and complete the races. Grab your repeater and wait for an invite to a Free Roam Event. Join the event and get the melee kills and the kills with the repeater. That’ll do it for today…
Good Luck out there!
Quick Guides
2 BISON SKINNED – Bison can be found in the Great Plains, West Elizabeth or The Heartlands, New Hanover. Find em, shoot em and skin em.
3 COOKED SEASONED GAME – Game is easiest found from Rabbits. They are everywhere, find, kill and skin a couple then head over to a campfire, season up that game and cook it.
5 GOLDEN CURRENTS PICKED – The best place to find Golden Currents is Manito Glade up North of Annesburg. Between the Hermit’s shack and the railroad there are plants there.
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
3 PLAYER KILLS WITH MELEE IN FREE ROAM EVENTS – Free Roam events are every 45mins and you need to be in a free roam lobby when one is due to start to be invited. Join a PvP based event and get up close and personal to get kills with melee.
3 POSSE RACES COMPLETED – This is started from the Posse Vs menu. Join or start a posse of more than one player and have the leader startup the races. Complete three of them to tick this one off.

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.
