When Rockstar introduced Frontier Pursuits to the world of Red Dead Online back in September 2019, gamers began to take notice of the Wild West sandbox that is Red Dead Redemption 2‘s online equivalent. The original three specialty roles were the Collector, the Trader, and the Bounty Hunter.
Many players gravitated towards the Bounty Hunter because of the fast-paced shootouts, flashy clothes, and gold bar payouts. With so many options for firearms, horses, and equipment, an outlaw needs to make the most strategic money moves on their journey of becoming a gunslinging Bounty Hunter in Red Dead Online.
10 Good Sidearm
When going after fugitives of the law and faced with waves of the target’s gang members, players need a trusty sidearm. Arguably the two best sidearms for the Bounty Hunter role are the LeMat Revolver and the Schofield Revolver.
Both of these guns have decent damage, range, and accuracy. The LaMat Revolver can be purchased at Rank 1 for $317.00 or 13 gold bars, and the Schofield Revolver unlocks at Rank 9 and costs $192.00 or eight gold bars.
9 Reinforced Lasso
As soon as an outlaw can afford one, he or she needs to buy the Reinforced Lasso. The standard Lasso does not keep targets tied up for long. In fact, targets can cut the standard Lasso and break free without warning. This of course results in players losing precious bounties.
This is why the Reinforced Lasso is important, as fugitives can not cut the rope. The Reinforced Lasso unlocks with the Bounty Hunter Novice kit and costs $350.00 at the General Store.
8 Bolas
Bounty Hunters should always bring their targets back alive to receive the full reward. Unlike the Lasso, Bolas can be thrown at an MPC from a distance and retrieved once the target is hogtied.
This allows a Bounty Hunter to quickly single out and capture their prey without running the risk of shooting and killing the wrong person in a crowded firefight. Bolas unlock at Bounty Hunter Rank 10 and cost $30.00 or 2 gold bars.
7 Rifle With A Good Scope
Many Bounty Hunter missions require staking out compounds and waiting for the target to arrive without being detected. One way to make these types of missions easier is to have a powerful rifle to take out MPCs from a distance, as well as a powerful scope to track your target’s every move.
The Bolt Action Rifle costs $216.00 or 7 gold bars and unlocks at Rank 7. A scope can be added for $30.00 or 2 gold bars.
6 Ability Cards
When constantly going after bounties alone, outlaws need to use all the tools available to them to have any hope of surviving an encounter with 20 MPCs. Paint It Black is a great Ability Card for a Bounty Hunter to start with.
Unlike in the Story Mode of Red Dead Redemption 2, Dead Eye in Red Dead Online does not allow the player the ability to slow time, but players can mark targets in real-time with the Paint It Black Ability Card.
5 Fast & Steady Horse
Every outlaw knows the importance of having the proper horse for each task. The Bounty Hunter role is no different. Lucky for outlaws, Rockstar has provided players with an exclusive horse breed just for the Bounty Hunters of Red Dead Online.
Named after the region it was bred in, the Breton was made to be a symbol of speed, power, and strength. The middle of the road species of this horse unlocks at Bounty Hunter Rank 10.
4 Throwing Knives
Having the skills to sneak into enemy camps without being detected takes time to master in the Wild West, and Throwing Knives makes the job seem easy. Throwing Knives unlock at Rank 8 and cost $2.50 each at any Fence.
They have a damage rate of 50, an accuracy of 40, a range of 25, and are deadly silent. This tool will allow a novice Bounty Hunter to sneak into their target’s camp and capture them without causing a large firefight.
3 Shotgun
Shotguns are always a handy tool to keep within arm’s reach when tracking targets across the wilderness. Things go south often, and an outlaw may find themselves surrounded by 10 to 20 MPCs within seconds. This is why a high-end shotgun is essential for the Bounty Hunter Role.
Some Bounty Hunters sport the Repeating Shotgun, which unlocks at Rank 11 and has an ammo capacity of six. An outlaw can purchase it for $434.40 or 18 gold bars.
2 Specialty Ammo
One aspect to take advantage of is the added experience points for using specialty ammo. With gunfights being a big focus of the Bounty Hunter role, players will have the opportunity to rank up twice as fast simply by using better ammo.
There is express ammo for both revolvers and rifles. Slugs are a cost-effective way to use this method without breaking the bank. Express ammo unlocks at Rank 34, while slugs unlock at Rank 44.
1 Bounty Wagon
Now that an outlaw has the equipment needed to be a respected, gun-toting Bounty Hunter, the only thing missing is a Bounty Wagon. This allows the established Bounty Hunters to take down gangs in one run.
The Bounty Wagon unlocks at Bounty Hunter Rank 10 and costs $875.00 at the stables, or via the Wheeler and Rawson Catalog. One small tip; if a player strays too far away from the Bounty Wagon, it will automatically return to the Stables.
