Red Dead Online Daily Challenges
Today’s Daily and Role Challenges – 17 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. We can pick some blackcurrants, find Joe and Anthony then hunt and fish in Lemoyne. Let’s get into it…
Blackcurrants
Start from Tumbleweed. Ride south from the fast travel post, past the stables and then down the hill into the desert. There are several patches of Blackcurrant plants just above where the large letter ‘E’ is in the word New on the map. There are two patches just to the north of the road, then another between the road and where the letter ‘E’ is. You should be able to get all five handfuls from these three spots, but just in case you don’t, there are two more patches just to the east of here. Once you have picked them, use the satchel menu and eat them. You can try eating them at the point of picking, but I find that buggy and it doesn’t always register.
Joe
Joe is one of the strangers. He has a cabin just to the east of Emerald Station. Head over to him, walk into the cabin and speak with him. Accept and complete one of the missions he has available.
Anthony Foreman
Anthony Foreman is one of the strangers. He has a cabin to the west of Rhodes. You will sometimes find him in the alley behind Doyle’s Bar in Saint Denis. Open your map and look for his marker. Travel to him, speak with him then accept and complete one of the available missions he has to offer.
Finishing Off
Staying in Lemoyne, hunt an alligator to get a tooth to sell. Take it to the Butcher in Saint Denis or Rhodes and sell it. Fish in different locations, using different baits and lures to catch five types of fish. Lastly, grab your pistols and head into a Showdown. That’ll do it for today…
Good Luck out there!
Quick Guides
ANIMAL TEETH SOLD – Alligators are my go to for this one. Head to Lemoyne, kill and skin a gator and head to the butcher to sell the teeth.
1 ANTHONY FOREMAN MISSIONS COMPLETED – Anthony Foreman is one of the Strangers and will give you a Free Roam Mission. He can be found just to the West of Rhodes.
5 BLACKCURRANTS PICKED – Blackcurrants can be picked from tall thin bushes in the deserts between Tumbleweed and Benedict Point. If you’re struggling then try just to the east of the ‘E’ in ‘New Austin’ on the map
5 HERBS EATEN – Either eat herbs you find in the world or if you have them already in your satchel you can eat them from there.
1 JOE MISSIONS COMPLETED – Joe is one of the strangers. He can be found to the east of Emerald Ranch. Speak with him, accept and complete a mission.
3 PLAYER KILLS WITH A PISTOL IN SHOWDOWNS – Load up a showdown, use your pistols to kill three players. Just remember, Revolvers don’t count as pistols.
5 TYPES OF FISH CAUGHT – Use different baits and lures in different places to target different types of fish. Swamps have different species to lakes so try swapping spots to get the variety

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.
