Red Dead Online Daily Challenges
Today’s Daily and Role Challenges – 02 October
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 Tumbleweed for the challenges today. A fair bit of travelling to do today. Let’s get into it…
Hawks
Start off in Tumbleweed. There are plenty of good spots to look for hawks. Rathskeller Fork, north of town, is a good place to check. So is Gaptooth Breach. The cliff edge that overlooks the railway line west of Tumbleweed is a good spot too. Shoot and pluck a hawk when you spot one.
Visit Owanjilla
Travel up to Strawberry. Ride through town and follow the road west out of town to Owanjilla. The dam is at the east end of the lake. As you approach the north shore of the lake, turn left and take the path down the eastern shore. When you ride into the area the challenge should trigger.
Rats
Travel over to Van Horn then riding west to Elysian Pool. Head to the waterfall on the northern shore of the pool then go through it into the hidden cave. Get out your lantern and pistol and pick off some of the rats in the cave. Collect three to complete the challenge.
Finishing Off
Take three items down to the Fence at Emerald Ranch and sell them to him. Head into a Showdown with your rifle to get the kills, then finish off today with a podium finish in a Race. That’ll do it for today…
Good Luck out there!
Quick Guides
1 FINISH A SHOWDOWN IN ANY SHOWDOWN SERIES – Load into a Showdown match from either the main or quick join menu. Play the match through to the end. You may have to go lobby to lobby to get this to register. Shootout or Takeover series work best.
1 HAWKS PLUCKED – Rathskeller Fork is absolutely my go to spot for hawks. Several spawn points there, just go in daylight hours and you’ll find them.
ITEMS SOLD TO A FENCE – Jewellery can be looted from NPCs and and several buildings in free roam. Find 3 items and sell them to a fence.
PLACE TOP 3 IN A RACE – Load into a Race Series from the main or quickjoin menu. Try and finish in the top 3. You’ll have to be in the lobby at the beginning of the race for this to count.
3 PLAYER KILLS WITH A RIFLE IN SHOWDOWNS- Make sure you have your rifle equipped before you join a Showdown match and then use it to kill 3 players. You will have to be in the lobby before the match starts for the kills to count
3 RATS COLLECTED – The cave behind the waterfall at Elysian Pool is my go to place for rats. It’s up near Annesburg.
VISITED OWANJILA DAM – Head to the dam at the Eastern end of Owanjila lake over near Strawberry. Easy Gold!

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.
