Red Dead Online Daily Challenges
Today’s Daily and Role Challenges – 15 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 Lemoyne today folks!
We can start in Lagras for the challenges today. We Look for chickens, fish and then head over towards Valentine. Let’s get into it…
Chickens
Start in Lagras. There are chickens at the fast travel post in the village. Often there are not all five though so we need to check a few other places. There are sometimes some behind the house where the letter ‘O’ is in the word Bayou on the map. This is hit and miss and there are certainly only chickens there in the daytime. Another good spot to check in the day is the houses to the east of the Fence in Rhodes. There is a coup there with chickens in. You can always head up to Emerald Ranch and check there too if you are really struggling to find some.
Smallmouth Bass
There are Smallmouth Bass in the Lannahechee River and Flat Iron Lake. If you are fishing the river, the stretch from Shady Belle down towards Braithwaite Manor is a good place to try. If you are fishing the lake, then Clemens Point is a good spot. The water around the largest of the islands just off the west shore of the lake is good. So you can fish from the mainland or the island. Crickets are the best bait to use for Smallmouth Bass. Catch three to complete the challenge. Head into your satchel and break the fish down for meat and then take the meat to a fire to season and cook it.
Creeping Thyme
Start off in 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.
NPCs Trampled
The easiest way that I have found to complete this challenge is to pick on lone travellers outside of the towns and cities. If you see one riding alone then lasso that person off their horse. This will most often antagonise them although the odd person will just run away. Wait for them to turn red on your minimap then trample them. Pick out four more targets and then you are done.
Finishing Off
Hunt birds and collect feathers to sell to the Butcher in Valentine. There is a barber in the main saloon that you can use to change your appearance. Lastly, load into an Elimination Showdown and play a full match. That’ll do it for today…
Good Luck out there!
Quick Guides
5 CHICKEN SKINNED – Chickens can be found in coups around the map. Braithwaite manor has a coup, So does the shacks just north of Rhodes. Emerald ranch has a pen with them near the Fence. There’s also chickens roaming Rathskeller Fork. You may need to swap lobbies to get them
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.
FACIAL APPEARANCE UPDATED AT A BARBER – Go to a barbers, change your beard, moustache or makeup. Make sure you make a mental note of your current style if you want to switch back
FEATHERS SOLD – Sell Feathers at the butchers. Look for any birds, kill em, pluck em and head to the butchers for that Easy Gold!
FINISH SHOWDOWN IN ELIMINATION SERIES – Enter an Elimination match from the start or quick join menus. You will have to be in the lobby before the match starts and play all the way through for this one to count.
5 NON-PLAYER ENEMIES TRAMPLED – Trample NPCs with your horse. Thieves Landing NPCs are good for this one, or enemies in bounty missions or resupply missions. If you want to be “artistic” about it hogtie 5 NPCs and put them in a line and ride over them
3 SMALLMOUTH BASS CAUGHT – The cove on Flat Iron lake near the islands west of Rhodes is my go to spot. Crickets are the best bait but they will take worms.

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.
