rockstarjazz Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 i enjoy the Trader the most...the resupply missions, the hunting, the delivering, and good payouts moonshiner is ok but i can never deliver 20/20 and always get caught and shot at by patrols. plus there's the long waiting time and need to find plants. bounty hunter has alot of potential but i'm not that great at it, esp if it involves 2 bounty people, one always escapes. collector was just a grind but i'll resort to this if i need to make money as it sells good. i got the plat for this game awhile ago and noticed i am still playing the online. i'm actually enjoying the online, and hope they bring in more roles in the future. it would also be good if they brought some table games in so we can play against people, like domino's for example. i enjoyed that from single player.

KingGuy420 Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 I actually like collector a lot. Something zen about just riding around and picking up treasures. Plus the rewards are god tier. Trader is a lot of fun but with the glitchy animal spawns it's hard to keep it going consistently. Hopefully that gets fixed someday. Bounty Hunter is fun too but the whole "the faster you finish it, the less you get rewarded" thing is annoying as hell. The legendary bounties are super interesting though. And moonshiner, I can't even try. I haven't tried in a few weeks but I always get the infinite loading screen and can't get into it. Can't even do the story missions sadly. Not sure if they fixed that or not but I'm excited to try it eventually lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StewartBros Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 I maxed out the Collector role - I was quite happy just riding around and finding things at my own pace, not bothering anybody and rarely being bothered by anybody else. I tended to go for the Coins and Rings and would sell both complete sets at the same time for a nice $920 payday or something like that. I got the Trader role up to level 14, I think, and will probably return to the game from time to time and max that role out too. I've barely touched the Bounty Hunter or Moonshiner roles yet, but will definitely put some time into them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
closertim Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 collector was my favorite, to be fair though I had only tried bounty hunter which wasn't bad but the xp given out for collector was far superior Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feral Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 Collector is my favourite in general because it’s cool to just ride around looking for items. Plus you can hunt animals, find things while doing other roles or story missions and it makes a lot of money. Moonshiner is second. I really liked the story that went with the role and it was a fun challenge doing some missions solo. Trader is alright and makes good money. Just wish the bloody resupply missions didn’t happen so often though. Bounty Hunter is ok. Only role I haven’t maxed out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SarcalogosVermis Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 (edited) Yeah, I'd go with Collector. As Feral said, it makes a lot of money, but also nets you a ton of XP. A shame it wasn't available back when I was aiming for Level 50, I'd have got that trophy far, far sooner. I've almost reached Level 100 and I estimate I was around 60 or so when I bought the Collector's Bag item only a few weeks ago. 8 hours ago, KingGuy420 said: Bounty Hunter is fun too but the whole "the faster you finish it, the less you get rewarded" thing is annoying as hell.

Totally backwards in context of the spirit of the game, but it makes sense when you factor in R*'s desire to sell gold/Shark Cards.

The PREDATOR Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 I loved the Trader role, currently as far as i know the animal spawns are still broken. Hopefully that get’s fixed soon, until then I’m taking a break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I play in the late afternoon/evening then there are tons of animals because it’s night in the Northern Hemisphere. So you’ve just gotta play when it’s not busy (yeah it’s annoying but still). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DIdn't play the game since a long time (didn"t play since those role came out) And still need a lot of XP to get lvl 50 So the best way to boost XP now is going with role, and most effective one is Collector ? Or is there an other way more effective than role ? Looks like some of you guys played a lot of it, that's why I ask it here ^^ (i guess it will be useful for a lot of others still looking for lvl 50 ^^) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing event series is reasonably effective for XP. Also a good idea if you're in need of gold to get the Collector. The Takeover series is easiest to win in.

As Feral said, Collector awards you XP for each item you find. You also gain XP (and money of course) for selling complete sets of collectables to Madam Nazar. https://jeanropke.github.io/RDR2CollectorsMap/ This map ought to be of use to you. Each group of collectables can be found in different places on different days. The cycles are random, but the link provided should show you exactly where items for the current day can be found. Be aware that you have to rank up your collector role,in order to buy a metal detector which allows you to find certain items like coins, arrowheads and buried jewellery (and to dig these up you'll also need to buy a shovel from Madam Nazar). But honestly, if you spend even just an hour or so each day just going round the map collecting items, it won't take too long to rank up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
