Red Dead Online Daily Challenges
Today’s Daily and Role Challenges – 30 September
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 at Manzanita Post for the challenges today. There is hummingbird sage nearby, a few hideout spots and we can fish before going to find some bats. Let’s get into it…
Hummingbird Sage
Start at Manzanita Post. There is a patch of Hummingbird sage just above the letter ‘N’ in the word Manzanita on the map. There is another right where the letter ‘Z’ is. You should be able to get all five plants from these two spots but just in case, there is another spot just up the hill to the north of the Post.
Hideouts
There is a triangle of locations used for Hideouts in West Elizabeth. Quaker’s Cove is the first point. Bear Claw in the south of Tall Trees is the second. The third point is at Fort Riggs between Blackwater and Strawberry. Ride to the three locations and check if any of the spots are occupied by a gang. We need to clear out two gangs from the three spots to complete the challenge.
Redfin Pickerel
Pickerel are the smaller, predatory fish that look like small pike. The redfin variety is more more common in warmer, southern waters. The Upper and Lower Montana Rivers are a good place to fish for them.
Bats
Head up to Elysian Pool. Look along the cliff base at the north of the pool and you will find a waterfall. Behind the waterfall is an entrance to a cave. There are usually a couple of bats hanging from the ceiling in the entrance. Be quick with your shooting and you should be able to get them. Head into the cave and wait a short moment, then slowly head back towards the entrance. They usually are a couple more.
Finishing Off
Head to a tailor, shop or camp and use the wardrobe to change your belt buckle. Grab your repeater and head into a Showdown. Get kills from cover with the repeater. That’ll do it for today…
Good Luck out there!
Quick Guides
1 BELT BUCKLE UPDATED – Head to a wardrobe and change your belt buckle. Wardrobes can be found at Tailors, in the back of General Stores and your Tent at camp. I’ve heard you can swap outfits on your horse if you have different buckles on them but never works for me.
2 HIDEOUTS CLEARED – Gang hideouts spawn at certain locations around the map. Check out the excellent work of u/thirdlegacy red_dead_online_event_map_ver2
5 HUMMINGBIRD SAGE PICKED – Northern Scarlett Meadows is a good spot. Or try just south of Manzanita Post for another great spot.
3 LITTLE BROWN BATS COLLECTED – Check the cave entrance behind the waterfall at the northern shore of Elysian Pool. Dusk to Dawn is best. You can also see them flying around the skies of Bluewater Marsh at night.
3 PLAYER KILLS FROM COVER IN SHOWDOWNS – Kill a player from behind cover in a showdown mode. Takeover and Shootout series are the most reliable for getting this one. Make sure you are in the lobby before the game starts for the kills to count
3 PLAYER KILLS WITH A REPEATER IN SHOWDOWNS – Join a showdown through either the main or quick join menus. Equip your repeater and get kills with it. Takedown and Shootout series work best and you need to be in the lobby before the match starts for the kills to count
5 REDFIN PICKEREL CAUGHT – Redfin pickerel can be caught in most waters in the southern half of the map. Special lake lure, special spinner or bread all work for bait.

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.
