No,, most feathers are worth 0.09 MATERIALS not dollars. But yes if money is important, you should sell them to the butcher. If xp is important, donate them to cripps

Got the pamphlet that gives you more materials for perfect carcasses. Brought in a three star cougar last night and it gave you like 18,6 or something in materials! So now it seems best to only fill up the wagon with pefect animals, and not just with anything that moves like I used to lol.

To bad you can’t have your horse and wagon out at the same time. Cause you can’t change your weapons from the hunting wagon so you’re stuck with the guns you have on your back

Seems there's a fairly wide margin for what counts as "distant" when it comes to Distant Sales. I've had some that were from Blackwater or Rhodes up to Valentine, others that started just outside Annesburg and took me all the way to Theive's Landing! Over 25 minutes on the clock for that one, though the trip actually only took a little over ten. I imagine it'd be even longer if I were in one of the bigger wagons...

Any good methods to rank up quick? Just hit level 4 which is pretty low. And I really neeeed the hunting wagon lol. Hard work bringing 2 carcasses right now (one on horse, one on shoulder)

 

Here's some great tips for you:

 

- Before doing resupply missions, just invite random people in your posse. That will cause the mission to spawn one supply sack for each member. So you would get 4 x 650 trader xp per resupply mission, if you deliver all 4.

I usually invite 1-2 more members, and i can deliver the sacks alone, i don't really need the other guys. Also, u get the xp when u deliver the sack, not at the end of the mission, so even if u deliver just 2 out of 3 or 4 sacks, you would still get like 1300 xp.

 

- At rank 5, buy the medium wagon, and deliver goods as soon as you get over 26 of them ( >25 will use the medium wagon.). Do not wait for 50 goods, just deliver when u have over 25. Here's why. For every medium wagon delivery, u will get 1250 xp or more.

 

Using these tips, i got from rank 5 to rank 10 in less than 3 hours.

Did a short trip from outside of Rhodes to Saint Denis.  No trouble at all, unless you count the dozen or so bandits waiting outside the Saint Denis general store!  At least there were four NPC 'good guys' to absorb some of the bullets!

Does it pay well?

It offers you to get off at each of the three stops but if you stay on and do well you get 20 material and trader xp.

So if you go over 25 units and have a bigger cart, does it just automatically sell as much as you can carry or can you opt to do a smaller sale with a smaller cart?

I'm avoiding that situation, because I'm afraid it gives you two carts of 25 units and both have to be delivered in the same tineframe. So I can 't confirm it, but what I saw on YT it most likely works this way...

It’s never more than 1 cart. 

 

1 unit, or 100 units, still 1 cart every time. 

 

You also can’t choose how much you want to sell. You can either pick Local or Long Distance, and it forces you to sell however much you have produced (also depending on your wagon size).

Anyone else experiencing this; when carrying several carcasses animals seem to disappear and not spawn as much as usual.

I'm trader rank 2 and only have the small sized vagina of 25 units. So I can keep producing above 25 units and when I sell, I'm just selling 25 units with a one cart delivery mission???

 

The YT vid I saw must be with a posse then or something, because it showed multiple blue wheels in the top of the screen ... Doesn't matter, this is real nice and solo friendly! Thanx!!!

Yes. Be careful though, I had like 50+ units ready for sale and figured I'd sell later after doing some collecting, and my fkn camp got raided for 25 units.

Thanks for the tips @OG_GhostDog- I'll definitely try recruiting people!

 

 

Just one rank away from 5 as well. :)

This one's starting to piss me off!

 

Every time so try to get my camp set up, Cripps packs it away. Try a new lobby, same sh*t. Try rebooting the game, and now the console itself, nothing.

 

Camp is beyond a joke now.

In theory, I don't know if this will actually work, but in theory it could be possible to go from level 1 to 20 trader in 8 supply missions at the moment.

 

Supply missions where you get bags, a bag spawns for every posse member (works for 4, dunno if it works for 8). With the Outlaw pass that's 625 exp a bag.

 

625 * 8 bags = 5000 exp a mission

5000 * 8 supply missions = 40000 exp total

 

2000 exp a level, that's 20 levels.

 

Oof.

10 carcasses donated in 10 minutes doesn't seem to be registering for me, even though i did it. (I am at the correct rank)

 

Is it to the normal butcher?

Is there any point in the medium wagon? Can you do medium deliveries with the large wagon?

Long ago I formed a persistent posse for 200 Rdo$, not knowing it's pretty much useless for a solo-grinder like me. But I made the investment back, sort-of, becauae the story-missions seem to pay more if you're in a posse...

 

At that time there were also issues with the camp disappearing or never even appearing after picking a campsite location, but I noticed that when I reformed my posse these issues were gone...

Just bought the hunting wagon last night. Definitely worth it! Pelts and carcasses stored inside are saved there indefinitely, even if you're disconnected.

 

You can either have your horse out or the wagon, not both. Flee your horse to call it in. Dismissing your wagon and re-summoning it later still keeps the contents you previously put into it.

 

The hunting wagon for me is a must!

I don't know where else to post this,  but yesterday i went to do a sale as trader and it said my "posse abandoned the job" i was playing solo and still in the session.  I already put in a ticket for it and am waiting to (hopefully) get my money back that i lost. My goods did not go back to storage.

Couple of questions, can it be customized? Can you choose the horse which pulls the wagon?
