@@mannyR422 from what I remember the map is automatically put in your inventory and you just have to look at it and then on your regular map it tells you where to go
To me it's the fastest way to rank up...I jumped from level 10 to 50 in few hours...but I take like 3 or 4 hours to collect few collections like all the kind of jewelry and the coins in one "playtime" and on the next playtime I collect flowers and bottles...also goes around 3 or 4 hours....it's impossible (to me) to grab all the collectables in 4 hours
Yup yup. Just like how the rich apparently like to eat shittier and shittier tasting food to somehow strangely display their richness. Like, who tf was the first person to ever say eating a phucking snail was “classy”? Whoever made that a thing was definitely loaded. If I tried to pull some shit like that people would laugh in my face 😒
Btw in this game lvls don't mean anything wen it comes to skill, after lvl 70 or so no need to be concerned about leveling up, just get yourself to 100 and forget about lvls after that
I usually go hunting, give the carcasses to Cripps trading, and while everything is “cooking” I do stranger missions, or collector related things. That seems to be really effective.
Yep same. Got talked into playing again and there are some nice QoL things in the pass (that is honestly scummy of rockstar to do) that I don't want to miss out on now that I will be playing again for a while.
@@MortalSquid it happened to me too after a while but was working fine nd they kept spawning for long Maybe trying changing sessions Or just try again later
I ranked really fast doing the collector role first of all...every time you collect anything you earn role and rank xp, and with the collector interactive map in hands....you fly faster than you can imagine...and also the amount of xp in each time you sell the itens...in few hours I jumped from level 10 to level 50...only collecting collectables and making money selling them to Madam Nazar.
Hey, this has been a big help. I took time off from this game and now I'm trying to finish ranking up my season pass. I did a mix of the collecting and Thieves Landing and it has been working great. Thanks Cat!
I'm rank 410 currently, don't really need to rank up but I'm glad you made this video for those who could use it. The only time I concern myself with gaining xp is when I need to rank up an ability card to tier III, which requires xp to unlock the next tier. The Del Lobos are my #1 enemy in RDO, I go and kill them just for fun - I don't concern myself with how much xp I get. Seeing them die is reward enough for me! 🔫 Thanks for the video Mr. Cat!
I am right wit you on this. But another tip for people that read your post. Before you sell collections, switch to a different ability card that needs to be leveled up. When you sell a collection that xp will level up your ability card quick. I have rank 3 on all of them by doing this.
It's why I love Collecting because daaaang the level-up is insane with the more full collections you have! Love your videos PVPCat, your accent is awesome too!
Thank you very much, Cat. I'm going to switch from the PS4 to the Series X and I'm going to have to start over from the beginning... and I think I'm going to combine all your 3 methods (at least to raise the first levels). That's how I kill three birds with one shot. I win exp. and dollars and at the same time I practice/improve my shooting skills. So it'll be less boring than just looking for collectibles. Thank you again for all your videos, much respect and greetings.
@@JoeMama-bl2uw I've always had PS, but I've always wanted to try an Xbox as well. And I think with the next generation it's a good time to switch platforms. Besides that I don't usually play with more people online ("I play alone" xd) and the exclusive Ps games don't catch my eye either... maybe I´ll feel sorry for the God of War, but well... But there's a lot of Xbox stuff that appeals to me, starting with the Game Pass. And no, as far as I know, there's no cross-save or cross-play in RDO. So if you switch platforms you have to start from the beginning again.
Watched red dead since like 2018 recently bought the full game when it was on sale on xbox series s and got it before than but am only level 60 something
Thanks for making these guides PVP cat. The more players this game has hopefully the more attention it will receive by Rockstar so we can get a good update or two.👍
I just learned about this auto aim xp difference from your video and I'm a little pissed off that the game makes zero attempt to make the player aware of this feature. Thankyou
Very useful. I've been hoarding 9 sets of each set of tarot cards, just selling one set a day. The hoarding is so when the Halloween Outlaw Pass drops, I can sell off the hoarded sets for a massive xp dump, plus have a boost to my bank account.
damn, its really that good? I just deleted my character and restarted so i could be a male (i got a lot of money though), how long dyou think it would take to get to leve 100 with this?
@@Goffy No idea, I don't play RDO that frequently, so it depends on how much you play it. Probably if you play it at least 3h every day, reaching 100 level would probably take anywhere between 2weeks--1month. Yea, and collector is the best for ranking up I think.
Best way I found to level fast was to do Etta Doyle the quiet way, put Etta in my bounty wagon, and then kill the workers around the Saint Denis stables, best to do with a knife, as you get 5xp for the kill, 10xp for the execution and another 10xp for melee kills. 25xp for each kill, no law will come after you and you can also get the maximum reward for timing the missions out. They can turn hostile, but just grab them one by one and execute them. If you get close to dying, pull out your gun and they will all run away. Went from level 46 to 79 in one day, from doing it as often as possible.
@@negan7110 You just get a bounty wagon, lock her up in the back after capturing her, and park it down the street from the drop off point. Then you spend about 50 minutes or so, just running around the stables building on the corner, killing all the workers, as killing them rewards xp, and if you spend long enough, when you turn in the bounty it will pay 225 dollars and 1500xp give or take. And each kill will get you 25xp if you kill them with a knife execution. If your on pc, I could get on it and show you, it's been a bit since I played, so it could be patched or something for all I know, but I'd be happy to do that with you, easier than showing you via video I think. Lemme know. If not... sorry man, don't really want to upload vids, its a bit of trouble for me personally.
@@negan7110 Okay man, good luck with it. Just remember, if you get ganged up on, just pull a gun out, and the workers should run off, without having to fire a shot. And yeah, any longer than 50 minutes or so will cap the reward. So I do a bounty, then maybe a bit of normal bounties/infamous. Just something in freemode, then when the cooldown on the legendary bounty resets.. repeat. Best way I ever found to level. Anywho, lemme know if you have troubles.
I waited to play Online until after completing Story Mode, hoping that would get me ready to play online, but it made things so much more confusing, with levels and gold. I had no idea how to level up until watching. Thanks!
To UPDATE: Rockstar changed the way collectibles work. They now randomly generate and no longer have set items at set spots. The map is still useful for collectable spots, but you won't always have a collectable or you will get repeats.
@@DeniedHorizon25 While your moonshine and trading is busy creating things, in the meantime play the bounty missions. When your moonshine and trader are done, sell it. You get a fair amount of exp. After you sold it restart the cycle
@@mollysnipez5251 yeah but imagine getting 15 gold bars without bounty hunter to buy trader then another 25 bars without bounty hunter to buy the moonshine shack
I was rank 8 June of 2020 and by December 2020, I was rank 300. I do have a life 😂 I was a full time college student with a part time job. But I’d say 90% of my XP gain came from, and still comes from, the collector role. I love that role to bits
Lol same! 90% of my rank (270) is from collecting. It’s also a nice deterrent. Lower level players see my rank, think I’m a badass and don’t mess with me. Little do they know I sick at pvp because I’m always collecting 😊
@@astronomical3342 I’m happy to hear you’re enjoying playing the game with friends :) I play with my friends a lot too. Definitely adds to the experience
Collecting gives me the most xp per hour, along with hunting, clearing moonshine checkpoints and other random encounters as I travel to the next collector item. I'm lvl 347
Pro tip, if you're going to do the Etta Doyle method and kill workers in San Denis forget about free aiming headshots. Keep free aim on but run at the workers, tackle them with circle and then hold R2 to execture them with special ammo. 5xp for kill 5xp for special ammo 10xp for eyes wide shut. 10 xp for execution. 20xp for free aim. With his method you only get a maximum of 35xp per kill, with mine 50xp per kill.
If you do Collectors, before midnight when they respawn, you can do just after midnight for a couple of hours, log out & log back in later and redo all collectors items again, that's how i have been collecting for xp and cash, went from level 40 to level 94 in three days
That turn off auto-aim tip is huge and ridiculous. I don't play with a controller but had to turn it off to get credit for my superior free aiming skills, thank you very, very much for this!
Thieves Landing will make money as quite a lot of the Del Lobo's will be lootable and give gold teeth etc, then just sell those to the fence in Thieves landing.
I got to level 170 with keyboard and mouse before I learned that I needed to change controller settings. I wish I knew that from the beginning. Good info
I actually was doing that thing with the Del Lobos earlier, I just started playing online today after finishing the story and I wasn't even thinking about XP LOL. I just kept looping around so they would respond and killing them over and over because it was funny
Been playing since the game came to PC and I didn't know about enabling Free Aim & that it gives the bonus even without using a controller... I can't believe how much XP I've wasted (level 250+ on main account, 48 on second account).
Call to arms is a great game mode right now for grinding! Easy kills for free aim players and you get gold Edit: Also try to get in a posse whether through the menu or invites there are so many people actively helping you by doing bounty hunter missions or moonshine deliveries and if you have friends that play just have fun
My fast rank up method in RDR2 Online is simple. Throw $6 at Rockstar for the one time 25 bars of gold, then visit Bounty board. Buy Bounty hunter licence and grind Red Ben Clempson Legendary bounty. The Red Ben Clempson Legendary bounty is so easy to grind. Just catch up to the last car of the train, pick off the first 2 bandits and the one hiding inside. Clear the third car then run back inside the second last car and stick to the left corner of the wall. Pick off all the bandit riders with your shit repeater. But look behind you periodically for sneek attackers. They will come for you! When you've killed all the bandit riders proceed up the train. Kill 2 legendary Bounties. I always keep Red Ben alive. Once you've reached the driver in the engine kill him but don't stop the train yet. Do another full lap of the track for max payout. Stop the train at the north part of the map. There's a trail leading straight into Tumbleweed. Throw the live one on the horse and lasso a dead one and drag him behind you. Drop them off at sherrifs then ride back for the last. Rince and repeat. You'll level fast and get all your weapon upgrades easy peasy! Cash won't be an issue. You're welcome.
I have the online only game. It's very bare bones, no gold, startup is a revolver, a repeater and $15. No gold means no Collector role. HOWEVER, using the interactive map you can still gain quite a bit of XP from just picking up the items that you don't need the shovel for, anywhere from 100-400 XP per pickup. They won't go into your inventory and XP is all you get. You can pick up flowers, tarot cards, eggs, heirlooms, bottles, and some of the jewelry if it isn't buried.
Feel like once you hit over level 200 it takes way longer to level up for sure. Have to work a little harder to get to 300. Which I like. Feels like I’ve earned it. I rather take my time. Love this video to help lower levels move up faster!
