Red Dead Online Daily Challenges
Today’s Daily and Role Challenges – 06 December
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 Hanover today folks!
We can start in Valentine for the challenges today. We can pick the wintergreen berries, go fishing, then head off to hunt cormorants. Let’s get into it…
Wintergreen Berries
Start off in Valentine then ride north up to Cumberland Forest. This is a great place to look for Wintergreen Berries. There are a couple of patches of them just below the letter ‘C’ at the beginning of the word Cumberland on the map. There is another patch just below the letter ‘B’ too. Another good place to get them is above the word Forest, particularly above the letters ‘O’ and ‘R’ and in between the ‘R’ and the ‘E’. Plenty of berries around to get the five needed for the challenge.
Fishing
There are plenty of types of fish in the Dakota River. Head down to the river and fish in different spots. Use different baits and lures to tempt different types of fish. Continue fishing until you have caught five different types of fish. There are pike, pickerel, roach, rock bass and bluegill in the river so you can get all five if you change things up a bit.
Cormorants
Head to The Upper Montanna River. There are cormorants on the river, but they are quite rare. Check near the bend in the river to the north west of the letter ‘G’ at the start of the word Great on the map. Another good spot is just to the south of Fort Riggs. The best area to search though, is just up from the mouth of the river. Where the little cluster of islands are and up to where Hawks Eye Creek meets the river has a few spots where cormorants can be found. Shoot and pluck one when you find one.
Finishing Off
Head to a campfire and craft a horsecare item. Grab your revolvers and head into a Showdown. Get the melee kills and the revolver kills then finish an Elimination Showdown. That’ll do it for today…
Good Luck out there!
Quick Guides
1 CORMORANTS PLUCKED – Head to the Dakota River, just upstream from Bard’s Crossing or where the Lannahechee River meets Flat Iron lake, just south of Braithwaite Manor for Cormorants. Find one, shoot it and pluck it.
1 CRAFTED A HORSE CARE ITEM – Potent Horse Stimulant and Potent Horse Medicine can be crafted at a campfire, along with any other recipes you have unlocked. Bulrush and either Sage or Ginseng are needed for these so collect them before heading to a fire.
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.
3 PLAYER KILLS WITH A REVOLVER IN SHOWDOWNS – Pick your favorite revolver and head into a Showdown series. You’ll need to be in the lobby before the match starts for the kills to count and remember, pistols and revolvers are different!
3 PLAYER KILLS WITH MELEE IN SHOWDOWNS – I recommend defensive ability cards for this one if you have them. You will have to be in the lobby before the match starts for the kills to count. Try and get melee kills during the match
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
5 WINTERGREEN BERRIES PICKED – Cumberland Forest is my go to spot for Wintergreen berries. Above the ‘U’ and above and below the ‘B’ on the map there are patches of berries.

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.
