Introduction

This video provides a comprehensive guide to the Trader role in Red Dead Online, revealing secrets and strategies for maximizing profits and experience. It covers starting the business, acquiring materials, producing goods, completing resupply missions, and performing deliveries. Additional advanced techniques for experience gain and pelt duplication are also detailed.

Key Takeaways

• Starting the Trader Role: Begin by retrieving items from a lockbox, reading a letter, and meeting Cripps to establish a partnership (requires a butcher's table).
• Material Acquisition and Goods Production: Hunt animals, complete resupply missions, and (less efficiently) purchase supplies to create goods. Two materials yield one good every two minutes. Donated pelts provide Trader XP.
• Resupply and Delivery Missions: Complete resupply missions (variety of tasks) to continue production; delivering 100 goods takes approximately 3.5 hours. Long-distance deliveries (7-10 minutes) provide significant rewards, but risk player attacks.
• Experience Gain Strategies: Utilize daily challenges, Trader route events, a special stew recipe, short deliveries, and feather donations to maximize Trader XP.
• Advanced Techniques: Learn how to efficiently hunt animals, including legendary animals, and strategies for duplicating large pelts to maximize material gain and table filling. This includes using specific weapons, utilizing the cinematic camera for wagon protection, and exploiting game mechanics for faster delivery completion or material acquisition.
