The 20 Strongest Weapons In Red Dead Redemption 2 (And 10 That Are Too Weak)

The 20 Strongest Weapons In Red Dead Redemption 2 (And 10 That Are Too Weak)

If you're hunting all of the points of interest, first of all, are you crazy? Secondly, this next one is difficult to find. They're located in Big Valley, west of the Owanjila Dam standing in a circle. What is, you ask? Well, the trees of cou

Red Dead Redemption 2 has some of the best shotguns I've ever used in recent years, and chief among them (at least in terms of standard weapons), is the pump-action. Packing a ridiculous amount of punch, whether loaded with regular ammo or slugs, it's also got a fairly decent range on it. The fire rate is good, and if you get a shot in on someone's head or one of their limbs, then uh...things aren't looking at all good for t

Out of all the hidden masks and hats out there, this example is one of the harder to find. Head out to the Bayou right above where it says Lakay on the map. If you come across a little shack half submerged in the water, you've found the right pl

Wait, I hear you say, "a viking hatchet?" Yes indeedy! There's a Viking ruin in the game located just across the river from Annesburg, to the northwest. In the middle of this tomb, near an altar, you'll find the viking hatchet. Wielding it not only lets you get your Ragnar Lothbrok on, but also packs a massive punch. It's a throwable that does quite a bit more damage than your standard throwing knife, while also looking very, very cool ind

Now we’re starting to actually see real dividends of being good guy Arthur. Honor Level +2 unlocks a special 10% discount for players at shops! Sure, it’s not like your favorite sale on a Black Friday but 10% at all shops for that sweet ammunition and clothing is a bargain in the Wild West. Ten percent might not be enough motivation for everyone to be good-guy Arthur, though, so I should probably mention here that these discounts only get better as your Honor Level progres

My go-to sidearms in this game are one Schofield Revolver and one Volcanic Pistol. The Schofield Revolver is the perfect counterpart to the pistol for a couple of reasons. It's one of the strongest revolvers in the game, and also has an absolutely superb range for a sidearm. Even without the Volcanic Pistol, a pair of these makes an absolutely fearsome duo of weapons, with 12 bullets from these things doing enough damage to take down large groups of enemies at a t

Believe it or not, this is actually the worst deal you can get by being good guy Arthur. Unlocked at Honor Level -1, this gives players better odds of finding Dead Eye tonics, throwables, alcohol, and tobacco from corpses. It's not a great perk, but then again it is the worst of the lot, so you can't complain too much. Also, it gets better as you level up your honor — some of these rewards are really g

One of the first towns you come across in Red Dead Redemption 2 is Valentine, a small town in close proximity to the base camp. In this town, you’ll find a typical Saloon where you can drink away your woes. However, there is also a small bar where you can pick up a fun little side missi

It does seem like there will occasionally be a warning of the danger to come, though. A horse with an erect tail standing on the road can be a sign of imminent combustion, so if you happen to see one, get re

But what I don't dig, however, is how horribly unlucky he seems to be. This musician was born with a lot of problems, but seems to be dealing with them on his terms. There are actually a fair amount of what society would consider "social outcasts" spread throughout the game wo

But once you do, strut on up to the mask on the back wall, and pull it down. Arthur'll be sporting a fancy little cat skull now. Granted, it clips through here and thee, but still a great hidden acces

Red Dead Redemption 2 Achievements Dead Redemption 2 is a massive game. And when I say it's large I don't think you understand, it's like, really big. The game has dedicated dialogue and animations for every individual character in your caravan. It has expertly intuitive wildlife (except for those rabbits that love running under your horse). And it even makes you manage your cleanliness and wei

Arthur Morgan does so much for the Marston family. He rescues John in Chapter 1, takes Jack fishing in Chapter 2, gets Jack back in Chapter 4, helps save John’s life at the start of Chapter 6, rescues Abigail from Milton in the final mission, and gives his life so that John Marston can inherit his legacy in the Epilo

The fact that Arthur can keep his pistol pointed the same way through the entire ordeal is seriously impressive, but I can't imagine he has much of an idea what he's aiming at. As posted by Reddit user Soliquidsnake: " I think we now know why the gang doesn't talk about Arthur in RDR

Make your enemies say night, night, with Midnight's Pistol. Received as part of the stranger mission "The Noblest Of Men And A Woman," Billy's pistol has a dark past. However, despite its huge number of uses over the years, boy does it still work. The pistol, a variant of the semi-auto, does standard damage, to begin with, but persist with it, and you'll gain affinity. Once you've done this, its damage skyrockets. Its damage becomes one of the highest of the game's pistols, while also having an exceptionally quick reload tuncovered-body-in-a-morgue-freezer.jpg?width=746&format=pjpg&exif=0&iptc=0
