Killing a cougar with a knife. I'm saving my Dynamite Arrow for that. Fuck the pelt. lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted January 17, 2019 Author Share Posted January 17, 2019 15 minutes ago, odessasteps said: I still have not done the first hunting quest because I can never get perfect squirrel and rabbit carcasses, even using smalle game arrows. but I don’t want to waste the time just walking around on foot hunting for them. BTW - regarding that one. Just to make it more annoying - they have to be done at the same time. I happened to get a perfect carcass from one of them and I was right at one of the train stations - so I went over to mail it and I couldn't. So I looked online and you have to mail both at the same time - which means you have to be in an area where both spawn, get two perfect carcasses and then get to a post office before they spoil And yeah - I think I might be taking a break from the game for a bit so I can play other stuff.

odessasteps Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Once I finish the cigarette cards and bones, I may take a break. I think my dream catcher count is only 3 of 20 so far. And I am still only the first orchid challenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah - I haven't completed any hunting or exotic challenges Funnily - the Dreamcatchers aren't that bad - I think I have 15 or 16. Almost all of them are right next to a road that I would have normally been travelling on anyway. Again - I am using the interactive map to find everything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coletti Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 So at 4/5 cougars killed with a bow and arrow, I realized I had the Legendary Cougar still available. One dynamite arrow to homey's head later and I'm finally done with the challenge and all but the last Legendary beast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 I was roaming around on the islands west of Rhodes (getting the pirate hat, mainly, although I also found a green iguana there) and decided to camp for the night. funny thing is that when I woke up in the morning, I was now back on the mainland. I still annoyingly have not found a boat (in free roam) where I can fish. Sadly, fishing off a docked boat in places like Annesburg or St Denis do not count toward the challenge I’m doing.

Coletti Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Yeah that area is where I first found iguanas, well before Guarma and of course the post chapter 6 map-opening. I think the boat you use to propose to Abigail is available in Blackwater in free roam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 I will look. The only usable boats I keep finding in the epilogue are canoes from which you cannot fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coletti Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 That challenge is waiting for me as well, but I'm working on the bait/kill an herbavor/kill a predator hunting challenge. Herbavor was easy, predator? Not so much... Plus I'm trying to tie it in with acquiring a perfect panther pelt (plus I need to study both types of that cat). It'd be nice if panthers, moose, and gila monsters weren't so damn rare. Meanwhile I'm up to my eyeballs in rabbits and pronghorns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 My goal this week is to finish the cigarette cards. I'm down to 12 cards and 4 sets to go. Annoyingly, I did the "shoot birds from a train" yesterday but only got credit for 4 of the 5. And a $110 bounty to boot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coletti Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Yeah I have been avoiding that one. I got the 7th hunting challenge down, then 8 and 9 are stupid easy. Got murdered by the legendary panther once but an explosive shotgun blast to the head took care of him the second time. I actually finished the cigarette cards via the buying tons at stores method.

odessasteps Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 I'm sure most of my cards were bought, since I have been finding ones that I already had acquired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coletti Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Nice. I'm getting kinda burnt out on the game, which is nuts because I only play a few hours of single player a week. I don't know how people have the full 100% achievement/platinum trophy already! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Oddly, I've spent more time lately watching YouTube videos of people playing than playing myself, mainly since they are playing as wild and wooly heels, not relatively straight laced babyface like I usually play. I still have a bunch of weird stranger type things to do (people in trees, etc) but since I've seen the videos, I dont feel the need to do it this time through.

odessasteps Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Looked in Blackwater, but did not see a usable boat. Ihave seen folks out in the water with boats, but since I’m John, I can’t swim out to get them. edit: found a boat in Annesburg. But I couldn’t fish from it. And I guess it was stolen, because when I rowed backtoshore, I had a ton of lawmen shooting at me. i finished my cards. Now I never have to buy premium cigarettes again.

odessasteps Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Not surprising, but heard today that Arthur and John write different things in the journal depending on when you do stuff. I guess that makes for story stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well in case you didn't know - Arthur writes different stuff depending on his honor level If I remember correctly - the higher the honor the more "intellectual" (for lack of a better word) the writings are Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Hadn’t heard that. Up to 20 something rock carvings. And 3 of the graves. And 5 or 6 dream catchers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Finished Rock Carvings. And a couple challenges. Just over 90 % now. finally got my Honor level to a decent amount. It really jumped after meeting Rain Falls in Annesburg. i think the last 2 Evelyn Miller missions will finish off my Stranger stuff. Stuck on day shift for 2 weeks, so not sure I will play again until the weekend. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
