Easiest way to win Condor Egg free roam event


Recommended Posts

AwardGrinder

I accidently found the easiest to win $1000 in the condor egg free roam event. I've tested it three times and it works.

 

Accept the event invitation, then wait for it to start. After it started, find a way to kill yourself(fall from a cliff, drown yourself, etc), after you died go back to free roam(this has to be done before someone else find the egg). You will get another invitation very soon, accept it and when you get in you will find there's only one competitor. 

 

Known bug:

The event sometimes wont end during the second entrance after you picked up the condor egg. 

If this happens, kill yourself again or wait for your competitor to quit, then it will end. Go back to free roam, there will be another invitation. Fast travel to Nazar, sell your egg before the invitation expires. $2000 under 10 mins.(The third entrance might be considered 'exploiting bugs' because you should only get $1000 per event)

BUT THE BENZ

well, I got around 60+ condor eggs just playing the event without any shenanigans!

today for example, I rode my way through tall trees and then saw it first on the cliffs of the waterfall. another dude was looking over from the other side of the river, near bear claw camp. I was going to climb the passage and get the egg...but then I saw that bitch was just waiting for me to get up there, so he could blow me away with a dynamite arrow which he had drawn. so I slid back down, and got my own bow...took me a few seconds and when I got back he was gone...jumped off the cliff I think, or just dropped out (his horse was still there). got up there and picked up the egg. righteous YAY!

but wait... OP haha maybe he did what you posted exactly?! suicide before someone else got the egg?!

No, it's fake as f*ck.

Probably some troll trying to get folks to quit out so he could stay and find condor eggs.

 

I have yet to find one. Do they look like the normal eggs found in the wild, - showing Gold glitter while in eagle eye? Do they bump the controller in the event?

 

I've just never, ever seen one even if someone else grabbed it

Yeah, just the usual gold sparkling thing. There are also some vulture eggs in tree stumps and the tree stumps tend to spawn in very late, so you see the gold thingy and when you get close the stump appears, it was very annoying at first till I learned all the condor egg spawns.

a "trick" that actually "works", is to ride off a BIT TOO EARLY so you die and then respawn. there's a "grey area" of 5 seconds (good to know) but if you leave the area before that, you'll die. and then twice, respawning I was placed PRETTY close to the egg, others had no chance to get there in time. happened at the brandywine drop location. wouldn't count on it though, rode off too early a couple of times and got placed back at the spawn, with others already in the field.

I always ride off at 7 seconds remaining, my fastest pickup is 13 seconds I think.

I mean, I start moving at 7 seconds so by the time I leave the safe area the event starts in 6 seconds, and the 5 second countdown while out of the safe zone ends when there's 1 or 2 seconds left till the event starts.

when my kid is around I tend to f*ck up the start sometimes....only so I experienced the respawn next to the egg-thing.

13 seconds is an excellent time really, brandywine drop straight forward eh? had gaptooth breach last night, went up for the hill and had the egg in 25 seconds! thought to myself..."whoa, that was quick". you really just need to know the spawns and go there one by one. and have luck with the direction you choose at the start of course

Yeah, the one in Brandywine is easily the closest and quickest to reach.
