The wildlife of Red Dead Redemption 2 impresses the players with its diversity. One of Arthur’s main activities is hunting. And in the game world, this process is really not much different from the real hunt: you need to prepare for it in advance, choose the right equipment and weapons, study the habits of prey, sneak up, get to the right point on the carcass. More than 200 species of animals from bats to forest giants bears are found in different areas of the map.

In addition to the usual animals and birds in Red Dead Redemption 2, there are also "Bosses" of the animal world - the legendary animals. Arthur can kill everyone only once, that is, in the game, these rare representatives of certain species - piece instances. The legendary animal is different from its fellows: it surpasses them in strength, dexterity and health. Some have external features. These are usually differences in coat color. Killing such a rarity is a difficult task even for an experienced hunter who will have to apply all his skills and experience. In Red Dead Redemption 2, there are 16 legendary animals, it's time to get to know each of them closer.

The hunt for the Legendary Pronghorn

Let's start with the fact that the pronghorn in its path can be met by Arthur only after passing through the 6th chapter of the story. This legendary animal is found in the Rio Bravo area in New Austin, which is located southwest of the small town of Armadillo. Although the game is sure to warn Arthur if at least one animal from the category of the legendary appears, the player himself will easily distinguish the rare fork from the ordinary one. If the latter have a brown-reddish color with white markings, their legendary brother is covered with snow-white wool. The animal is small, but very careful and fearful. Thanks to these habits, the pronghorns managed to survive and retain the status of the oldest artiodacty of North America. It is difficult to catch the legendary Pronghorn by surprise. You will have to sneak up on it, using all your camouflage skills. From the horn of the big elephant, Arthur can make a unique amulet, which is called so ("Amulet from the horn of the blue big fork"). It makes it possible to save animal carcasses from deterioration that will be transported on a horse after a hunt.

Legendary Wolf: tricky and dangerous

The legendary wolf has a thick brown fur, by which it is easy to distinguish it from its relatives. To find the habitat of a rare beast, you need to focus on the inscription Cotorra Spring on the map. The amulet from the heart of the wolf gives a very original effect: Arthur becomes more resilient in drunkenness. Very useful skill for the otvyaznogo cowboy who likes to spend free evenings in a noisy saloon. Now he will be able to drink twice the amount of alcohol before the state of severe intoxication. It is better to go to the wolf with a bow and poisoned arrows or with a rifle. Although wolves are gregarious animals and don't usually hunt one by one, the legendary beast has no problems due to the lack of comrades. Although he cannot “play” with a hunter, having exchanged roles with him and turning him into a sacrifice, his increased endurance and strength make him a formidable opponent even without the support of the pack. A wolf should not be allowed close and approach it from the leeward side. The excellent scent of the beast will help him quickly determine the presence of the hunter.

The places here are cold, the temperature is below zero, so warm things cannot be done, otherwise Arthur is threatened with frostbite.

Legendary Lion

Lion in the game RDR 2

The lion in Red Dead Redemption 2 does not fall into the category of legendary animals, but it is certainly a strong and very dangerous animal. Since there are no lions in nature in the Wild West, this rare specimen will be free completely by accident. It can be found and killed in the game only once, so that the beast in all parameters can be equated to the legendary. On the road near the ranch Emerald will turn over the cart with wild animals, which are shown in a traveling circus. After a brief conversation with an upset man wearing a woman’s dress, Arthur will agree to this job.

Morgan will receive a side mission "Of course he is British" and in addition to the emerald, which will give him a pseudo-circus artist, Arthur will be able to take away the paw of a dead lion.

Location where you can find a lion in a mission

Unlike zebra and tiger, which Morgan will have to catch in the first place, the lion will have to be killed. The first one obediently follows the character’s horse with a lasso around his neck, and the second one buys the bait and will voluntarily climb back into the cage. Between these events, Arthur will meet a circus aide. She, along with the false lion, who will be painted dog, the first to go in search. The dog will be successfully lost and tiger will tear it to pieces, and he will go to the cage for this bait.

A real lion will show all his temper. This is the only animal from the trinity, which managed to escape far enough. At first, he will be locked up by the confused workers of the Emerald ranch. They will prop up the door, not knowing what to do next. It is in this position that the unlucky farmers will be caught by Morgan when they go in search of the last fugitive. In the story of a strange incident at the ranch, passers-by will tell him, so do not be shy and ask everyone who meets along the way. Rumors here spread faster than the wind.

The attack of the lion on Morgan in the game RDR 2

Morgan will show wonders of courage and will be the first to look into the barn. As soon as he enters there, a roar is heard at the far wall, and the lion successfully disappears, having escaped from the other side. You will not have to search for it for a long time. The beast, having tasted the intoxicating air of freedom, has already managed to find a victim and launch its fangs into it. Morgan must go on the bloody trail, which will lead him to the predator. The lion will hide in another barn. The beast lurks, apparently feeling the threat coming. Now you need to act with lightning speed, as the reaction of the lion is amazing. Without the ability to "sharp eye" is not enough. If the player is only a moment slow, then reaching the character, the lion will tear him to pieces in the blink of an eye. These predators are unsurpassed hunters, and a beast cornered becomes twice as dangerous. After successfully killing a lion, he needs to be skinned. Paw is useful for making a talisman. It can be done here on the Emerald ranch, but do not immediately rush to the buyer. First you need to return to the place where the cart turned over, and tell the customer what happened. He will thank the player with an emerald worth $ 50. Now you can go to the buyer and give him a paw for making a talisman and a precious stone for sale.

Skins and Ingredients

The hunt for legendary animals has an obvious advantage: from whatever weapon Arthur scorched, no matter how many holes in the carcass, the skin will still be of excellent quality. You can turn the carcass of a panther or beaver into a sieve, and its value will not decrease due to this. Clothes from legendary skins are sewn by the character Hunter. Although he travels the map along with his mobile shop, the main location of the merchant is located in the town of Saint-Denis. To make an amulet of legendary ingredients, Arthur needs a Buyer. There are several such characters in the game. One is located near the Hunter in Saint-Denis, and the other can be found at the Emerald ranch.

The guide to the world of hunting for legendary animals for Arthur will be Hosia Matthews. After the conversation, he will present the newcomer with a card on which the habitat regions of the legendary animals will be marked.
