Thank you for your response. I use FT frequently to get to camp now for resupply missions especially when I am on the other side of the map. I did not realize you could do that until a couple months ago without the FT post at the camp. You helped me decide to get it for my camp with you answer. Thanks for answering about Cripps and the butcher table also! There are SO many new options to embrace with this update!

Is Fast Travel worth have at camp? The bigger question for me ... are posse members able to use Fast Travel from camp if the posse leader has it equipped? I am trying to decide whether or not to purchase it. I am thinking of a strategy involving hunting wagons and Fast Travel from camp if Posse members are able to use it. Also, what happens with Cripps & the Butcher Table in the posse camp. Does each posse member have their own Cripps & Butcher Table ... or does everyone just need to go to their individual camp to manage their Trader Business?

Good to know this about posses and members/inviting new people. I have played RDO solo until now but finding I need a posse to be effective with Trader deliveries & BH missions. Thanks for the info.

I have heard from other players your camp dog will come to you to warn you of a raid at your camp when you are out hunting etc. So far my camp has only been raided one time. I was close and saw the screen notification of the raid but did not notice the dog coming to warn. Has anyone had your dog come warn you of a raid?

I hope you are able to find your horse! Curious to know if you if you do.

Didn't I hear the Kladruber is good around gators, cougars, wolves & snakes? It appears it will be a long while before I can level up Bounty Hunter to get the Breton. BH is a real grind for me. I leveled Collector & Trader pretty quickly but BH is another story.

I'm EaglesLanding53 on PS4 I have not done any gaming for decades. Bought a PS4 in 2018 to play games online with my grandson's and discovered RDR2/RDO before the launch. Purchased the Ultimate Edition and have been hooked since launch day. I have played mostly solo and always with high honor. I am enjoying Frontier Pursuits big time and can't wait to see what comes next. Glad to be here in this group. See you on the prairie!

Thank you for this lumper! I have been trying to figure out the best builds for defense when running missions..

PSN: EaglesLanding53 I like helping others and would appreciate some help with larger (100 Unit) Trader wagon long distance deliveries from time to time. I prefer using a mic when working with others on missions and really prefer no, or very limited, profanity. Current RDO level 78 with most important tier III Ability Cards for PvE. If you don't mind saddling up with an older soul (60+) lets ride!

I have this same issue at times. Resetting (rebooting) my router always solves the issue for me.

Great info on the number of players in the lobby and animal spawns! I will definitely test this out! Thank you!

I believe you can make the most money quickly & level up the fastest with the Collector Role if you focus an completing the collections.

Not sure about XBox but PS4 had the Black Chestnut Thoroughbred as an Ultimate Edition bonus for online. I have been riding this horse from the beginning. I picked him up at the stable in Strawberry so you might check there to see if there are options for you. GREAT HORSE ... we have been through a LOT together!

I have the same problem with setting up camp. I have found if you select an area for your camp you are not currently in with your character it usually works better. This issue seems to be less of a problem (at least for me) in the past few days.

BH is a real grind compared to Collector & Trader IMO. I got to level 20 in both Collector & Trader pretty quickly (all solo) but it seems like Bounty Hunter will take forever to get any where working solo. It didn't help that the first few Bounties I turned in did not record XP or pay me. I am not giving up on it, but will likely have to work it more with a posse than solo.

This is a great idea! Another option might be to "recruit" specialists you can direct (i.e. as in Farcry 5) to supplement various game play elements. In case you may not be familiar with Farcry 5, there is a sharpshooter, an archer, an ace pilot and a helicopter pilot (along with a dog & "pet" cougar & grizzly) you can call & direct to help with missions.

The metal detector is definitely a great investment. I have found and sold no less that 7 coin sets alone using it, not to mention the various jewelry collections! Just completed another set of coins today along with a set of rings ($918 for these 2 sets).

I have been riding the Black Chestnut Thoroughbred since very early in my play of RDO (started day 1 of RDO)! He is a great horse except for being skittish. I have been debating whether or not to buy a new horse and, thanks to this thread, will most likely get a Kladruber so I don't get thrown in the mud or worse every time something appears that has fangs!

A tip to consider with Collector I have found helpful. Keep 1 or 2 of each collectable to give yourself a head start on building your next collections.

I have been working solo on Trader deliveries with full (100 unit) wagons. I have only done local deliveries so far, but would like to try a long distance. Most of the time the deliveries go without a hitch. One time however, I was pulling into Valentine Station will a full wagon and just as I was turning in front of the station a griefer fire bottled my wagon killing me in the process! I did not know what to expect when I re-spawned! I ran back to Valentine station and found I had 4 bundles of goods on the ground near the burned out wagon. I picked each of them up and carried them to the check point and fortunately received most of my money & XP! Not actually sure what I was paid since I was happy not to have lost the entire delivery & missed seeing the notifications! Has anyone else had something similar to this happen to them?

Selling complete collections will get you good money and about 1500XP per collection. I recommend you do what you can to get the Metal Detector ASAP it will dramatically change how fast you rank up in Collector and position you to collect coins & jewelry that you can not find without it. Good collecting!
