The Double-action Revolvers aren't bad. Sure a single one is lack luster, but if you pair up two of them and use the Gunslinger's Choice passive ability card, they become incredibly accurate. The bloom circle is always closing after you fire a shot and closes fast enough that when you fire the second shot, you have nigh perfect accuracy.
If you’re good at hitting headshots they’re really top tier, even in PvP. I used to stick to the Navy up until I hit about level 80, decided to try the Double-Action for fun and found I could outshoot players and clear AI much quicker with them. High damage doesn’t really pay off when you can just pop someone in the head.
Ability cards depends on your play style...I fight a lot from horseback...Horseman was good for my style, especially when escorting NPCs and player sell missions, fighting off ambushes, defending camps hunting from horseback etc...
Yeah if you're like me and you like to Cavalry Charge people to combat Griefers it certainly helps but Winning Streak works just as well so it comes down to personal preference I think.
I've thought Capitale is completely useless since it was added to the game. I don't bother to even go after it now, I occasionally loot NPC bodies that have these useless pieces of paper but that's it. I bought a lock breaker ages ago and I've rarely used it, I did find one locked door a while ago with two options, use a lock breaker or kick it open. I was annoyed so I kicked the damn thing open :-)
I have not yet tried playing these "Capitale missions" XD - I was to bored of RDO at the release. So I never came to testing it out. Was to busy learning more in GTO at the time
The funny thing is that lock breaker is used for opening the back part of some stage coaches but you can just either shoot it open or if your weapon is equipped use your weapon as lock breaker
To be fair the iron sight upgrade is more useful if you decide to actually use them while in first person (aim and press down on the D-Pad. If you have a scope it doesn't work.)
@@Lingist081I came here a little late. But I couldn’t believe he didn’t say that😂 it also instantly switches to first person and back to original when already aiming. It’s perfect
The binoculars depends on the type of player.... They are pretty good for bounty hunting or trader which requires lots of hunting... Trust me I rather use than that using eagle eye every few seconds... It's like a longer eye so if you use that a lot it's a good purchase
@Tim B I've never been able to use it on a stage coach. It'll give me the Luton to "break," but it's literally just an animation of my character hitting the lock with whichever weapon or sidearm in currently holding.
i have to disagree about the lock breaker. before i bought it i was struggling to make money, i had to use my knife to kill enemies while everyone else had revolvers, rifles, dynamites... i was living in a camp with some old drunk guy. but ever since i bought the lock breaker i became a millionaire, i own a customized villa in mexico, i have a personal train that unlocks robbing other players' trains, i can rob banks, my character can finally speak and it allowed me to level up to rank 4200 and now i can sell wild horses for 3.69 dollars. the lock breaker is the best thing ever but pvpcat is a noob and doesn't know how to use it. btw, the iron sights help you when playing in first person. they don't help your character, they help you, the player, but me personally i never play in first person so it's...meh..
@@BleedingUranium i think I still play in aim assist but ngl it's quite fun when you have a rifle or 2 good revolvers with iron sights (navy's are my personal favourites)
LOL. Early in beta I bought a Belgian Draft horse. I did this because I saw one in free roam. I thought, Christ that is one big bastard. I wonder how many animals he can carry. I didn’t realize I would have to buy a new stable slot and a new saddle if I wanted to switch between horses. I took nearly all of my money. I was kinda pissed off at the time because he still held one large and two medium animals. Hoss and I ended forming a tight bond. I was broke af after that for a long time. Now I love Hoss, he is my tightest homie in the game. I can’t ride most other horses now because I feel like I’m on a raggedy ass baby horse.
Started a second character a couple weeks before blood money, just to see how it was for a new player.. But having those years of experience taught me SO much about what NOT to buy.. Sad thing is, by 3 months in I had all roles fully ranked, was well over rank 100 with plenty of extra gold and cash saved up for the update that wasn't, by December I had over 300 gold, nearly 40 thousand cash and nothing worth buying. Its like rockstar isn't even TRYING to monetize this game, my primary character has over 3 thousand gold and 700k in cash.. I doubt i will ever get to spend much of it
@@Jkooowb I "retired" meaning deleted, my first character. If you do that, you start with all the old character's gold bars and money, so I spent all but 25 gold bars and $2k. (It took hours to spend the $180,000 and 1800 gold bars my old character had. - I bought nearly all the clothing in the game. But it was fun to start over.
just started a new character as well, rank 95 (enough for all ammo pamphlets for self defense) in less than two weeks maybe. now i got nothin to do so im leveling up the most random shit, i love the game but im so damn bored theres not much to do when you start getting ideas outside of what the roles limit you to. the whole game can be summarized by “hey go ride over there, kill someone or bring be a burlap sack, and ill give u $7.50” is a damn shame this game doesnt bring in money like gta, cause then theyd actually pay attention to it
9:30 Trolling from Rockstar is the two times they awarded us multiple pieces of an indestructible item we can carry only one of, thus the extras stay in our lockbox _forever._
5:00 I think refined binoculars are great. Although they aren't good for getting the collectibles, they are great for hunting. I'm always hunting, so being able to spot animals in the dark that are really far away is great. They are worth it for hunting, but if your buying them specifically to find collectibles, then your wasting money.
Yeah ! And his ammo belt statement is mostly wrong because only shotgun shells belt is useful... If you buy revolver ammo for exemple there will be only extra carry for regular... Or everyone uses at least express !!! So it's absolute waste because you can't have extra express ammo in the process + you can nearly buy ammo on the fly anyway.
The Litchfield repeater was my first serious purchase after my Arabian. After using a Lancaster, I am mistified how I used that slab of metal on a regular basis.
The iron sights one is kinda understandable, but its only suppose to make a difference for when the weapon degrades, the accuracy would only go up if it clears the full bar (at least this is how Im pretty sure the system works)
I agree 110% with all of these, Cat! SO MUCH that stupid lock breaker and the refined binoculars. I don't even care about the money I just get annoyed having to scroll past the binoculars in my wheel. I'll also add: any of the variant bolas. A cosmetic that you barely can see when using. Unless you are someone who uses and loses lots of bolas during PvP, there is zero reason to have anything more than 2-3 normal bolas.
Seriously, why do they only let us change makeup opacity in character creator? I basically can't change my character's makeup without spending $400 or else looking like a prostitute.
I remember buying a lot of dumb stuff as a new player like lockbreaker, naturalist role first, elephant rifle because it's goofy, black turkoman as soon as I had the gold, wasting my time getting the golden egg collector buckle before I knew of the collector map existence and I never really regretted anything.
I brought iron sights on all because it was something to spend money on🌚 no point have hundreds of thousands and nothing to spend it on 😅 I even upgraded all the cards I might just sell the game it’s never gonna get the love it deserves
Im on that card journey RN buying and upgrading any card I might find useful in the future because why not it’s fun to mess around with different builds
Fun fact: imitating firing the elephant rifle and rlits recoil is the best way to fall out of your chair and crack your knuckles. Talking from experience
There is two types of beginners,those who wanted to play the game by themselves thus they will achieve everything slow,and those that got into the game cause they got high lvl friends making it one week to have your own first role
I think the Iron sights help for 1st person aiming which I noticed you didn't try or clip while shooting the double action off. Not many players even know about the 1st person aiming in RD2/RDO
No one knows about it because no one uses it, rockstar seems to have a trend of making bad FP animations, they could be WAY better. I get it’s not meant to be a first person shoot but why make first person if you don’t want to make decent animations for it?
The litchfield repeater is my favorite weapon in this game. I have been using it consistently since I bought it over two years ago. I have never regret buying the litchfield repeater.
I put Vitalism studies animal transform in #1 spot, easily. At least Capitale CAN be USED for something in the game, even if it’s a terrible waste/investment loss as you point out. Also, I slightly disagree with Come Back Stronger card. Yes it is completely useless for PVP but I actually use it with the other 2 meta defense cards when doing bounties. It helps a good amount to run in and hogtie multiple bounties while you are eating bullets. To prevent from accidentally shooting bounty targets in the chaos, tie them all up first then shoot everyone else. Otherwise, your list is pretty solid.
There is one random Bounty event in New Austin where near the NPC you need to capture there is a wagon, hostages tied up and chest that can only be opened with the lock breaker. I have not purchased such item yet, but that event is tempting me.
Come back stronger is actually good card when you are riding horse and getting shot at by enemies. Plus because how pvp modes work, when you kill someone you will have little time to cover or heal, so that extra 25% you get from waiting at lvl3 makes big difference.
I was suprised to see the Litchfield on here its actually my favorite repeater 😅 i tried out the evans and hated it. The accuracy was terrible compared to my litchfield.
Many people don't know this. But your character actually has to get used to the weapon, before it gets up to it's full potential. The longer you use a certain weapon the better the handling gets. That's why your character handles the Litchfield better than the Evans. 👍🏼😎
Blood Money was also the worst Rdr2 update by far. I was upset when the Naturalist update broke the game for like 2 months but at least you had a chance of finding legendary animals which were a awesome addition to the game. Blood Money leaves you with absolutely nothing minus a couple of hats. The final missions of Blood Money are lazy miserable survival missions against mobs spawning in on screen from every direction and you are just running like a madman. It has zero replay value and it isn't enjoyable in any sense. Frontier Pursuits was excellent and the Moonshiner update was Excellent. I also enjoyed the expansion to the Bounty Hunter role. I fear that the good expansions are a thing of the past now since its fairly clear that we aren't getting much until Rdr3.
Two Things: 1) The Refined Binoculars are good for identifying your bounties from a distance. This way you can tag them before engaging and never lose a bounty. You can also identify the animal viewing the scent trail, much like that of eagle eye, which can help in hunting some animals. 2) Capitale is the worst thing every. Not only do you have to spend it for opportunity missions, but if they crash, and for me, they ALWAYS CRASH, you CAN NOT GET REFUNDED FROM ROCKSTAR FOR IT. Thus making it the most useless update EVER!!!
you can use the LockBreaker to stealthily rob some coaches with a lockbox, a random NPC bounty event in new austin, or in the blood money mission where there's a gem in the sheriffs office, you can unlock that stealthily without needing the key from the sherrif
Good point but his point is its a bad purchase for new players. I would classify "new" as anyone below lvl 150. I have it and have not knowingly ever used it.
@@ritedas7873 Sort of pointless up until now at least. Takes a miracle to change this game to become everlasting? I think it is almost hopeless. It takes real geniouses to morph this title into something fun again, is my belief
Refined Binos work really well for the Naturalist role. You can spot, track, and study the animal from farther away if you don't have any blending tonic
IMO If you play PVE, any repeater (and basically any other weapon) that you like will do. Choose whatever you like, because playing against bots is pretty easy. Personally, Litchfield is my favourite repeater, because it's the only one that actually requiers effort to shoot, I like the recoil and the heaviness of every shot, and the damage is pretty high. But yet again, almost all repeaters are the same IMO, so I would suggest anything that you like. I treat weapons in RDO like an actual thing that has value, not a statistic
My worst purchase back then was probably the trader role. Now hear me out right- I bought at first cause I just liked the simplicity and all, and I still do for the most part. The problem is that I unknowingly bought the role back when animal spawns were bugged, so I essentially dumped 15 gold bars on a role that I couldn't even use. I distinctly remember running around for like half an hour trying to find one pronghorn buck or sumthin'. Not very good times back then. ._.
I use all of the repeaters for different tasks when i have the option. I don't like the elite handling styles on the horses but my internet speed and game controllers are hot garbage, so i don't only blame one thing. I do wish that i had stuck with the small delivery wagon for the trader role. I enjoyed the way it drove much better than the bigger slower wagons.
I played for 2 days grinding random online jobs to buy that double bandolier thinking I’ll hold more ammo and come to find out I spent almost $400 for no reason and the “delete game” meter went up by 2
My biggest regret was the toxic moonshine pamphlet way back when I started the moonshiner role, For some reason I thought it was gonna give me a recipe to make moonshine to sell at a higher price and I even chose this purchase over the distiller upgrade 😂😂 Also I regretted buying the semi auto shotgun so early when I already had the pump, Until you start collecting every weapon the pump is just better
7:47 from what ive seen, this year most low levels are just buying the overpriced double black bandoliers to go with their fully black outfit. This is how it is now
I learned my lesson with the binoculars 100% though I didn't realize it required eagle eye. I'll for sure be able to utilize them now. Good looks with the horse to saddle stats as well. I'm glad it works like that honestly, you can have whatever horse you want and not be punished for it
if you play first person and intend to use iron sights upgrrading them is in some cases useful because it can make them more usable, in some cases though the upgraded sights provide a worse sight picture.
one thing about the Ammo Pouch Pamphlets. They only increase your Regular Bullet Capacity. I bought the Repeater Pouch and was disappointed to find this out. so the ones that are useful are the Varmint Ammo and the Shotgun. I almost never use Regular ammo except to craft Split Point Rounds
Honestly why would anyone use regular ammo? It’s BARELY cheaper than express. If i run out of express i still have split point and high Velocity. Never use regular ammo
@@reonthornton685 it can be useful, but you have express, split point, high Velocity and then the regular ammo as well. I think itd just be cheaper to use the alternate ammo instead right?
@@bigmanbarry2299 Eh honestly the problem is you'll run out of those extra ammo's quite a lot with pistols unless if you're using the Volcanic and the boost of express is much less significant with them. You can't exactly stop to craft split points in the middle of a shootout.
Call to Arms made me genuinely try using Litchfield because Wave 5 to 10 has litchfield pickups. The gun is so goddamn inefficient in a pinch. Especially that mode you need quick headshots and Litchfield takes way too damn long for that accuracy circle to close tight around aiming reticule. And that’s only for standing there, in cover it’s a tad faster but once you move that accuracy circle grows exponentially and shooting center mass from range leads to a lot of flat out misses. Even up close trying for that damned headshot is a trial, sending 6 bullets before even one hits, and it’ll hit the shoulder! Fuck the Litchfield Repeater lol
Litchfield is for paint it black user's 2 body shots and they are dead does not matter if its in the foot 2 shots anywhere. Its the only time its useful keep in mind that's with express ammo not regular.
Elephant rifle is arguably amazing... For only pvp, lemme explain: So elephant rifle does alot of damage in just one shot, and you get two, in mid-close range it is better than any other weapon as you can use dead eye with it unlike other one shot weapons (Carcano, Rolling), so now you have the upper hand in any mid-close range PvP scenario. In my experience is best used on people when they turn a corner. This ofcourse is not using and form or anything close to the definition of skill.
Pretty sure the iron sight value addition favors into roles against players with abilities. Pretty sure the game makes rolls or whatever you wanna call it for errant misses too
If you bought the Lock Breaker and are still working on doing bounties to level bounty hunter, you can use it in Yukon's legendary bounty to break the locks for the grizzly bears, etc. This ofc will make everyone fight the bears and wolves instead, if you do it silently of course.
I saw mausers in description and had to watch they may not be best for beginners cause they're expensive but i love dual wielding the mauser pistols they sound great and shoot and reload fast so once you can afford purchase
After a couple of thosand hours of playing both the story mode and the online mode. Though I had hundreds of bars of gold and thousand of dollars of cash. I restarted the game from the beginning. I spent a lot of time buying shit, then restarting until all my gold and cash was gone. Took quite a while and a vast number of restarts to do. But now I'm playing a style that is much more conducive to one living in the era of the old West. And having a ball doing it. In the days of old, there were deperado's and bad guys. But the majority of individuals spent their entire lives just eeking out an existence by hunting, fishing, gathering, trading and exploring. This time playing, I've only bought using money I've earned ingame as I go through life as one would have normally during that era in the U.S.A.'s past. A volcano pistol and the cocano rifle and one horse upgrade. I've now got almost 500 hours in to the new play style, and using a modded line of code, boot up the game into a solo lobby which still allows me to have up to three others of like minded players to join me or play themselves in my solo lobby. For as many hours as one wishs. The conventional online playing ability just has to much greiving going on to allow me and my friends to play the way we want to. Which is causing old and new player's to quit. If RS is actually interested in keeping new player's and bringing back old player's. Which to some degree or other will invest in micro transactions. Then offering one the abiility to have their own lobby and invite whom they wish to partake with or when ever they wish, meaning only those allowed. They would make more money in the long run. Assuming they are in it for the long run. FYI: Not myself or anyone who plays in my lobby with or without me or the other's. Have no ability cards; NONE; There not needed.
Actually, u cant be more wrong about the DA revolver, the best PVP revolver until u get enough money for the pistols. Navys also can be fine in highl lvl gunfights but are much more expensive and demand much more skill:)
There's an online story mission where you have to ride into Van Horn and kill this bandit's lieutenant or something. If you ride to the back/side of the saloon where the guy is hiding out, you can use the lock breaker to open the door silently, step inside and shoot the lieutenant before anyone notices you're there. It's the only situation where I'd call it "useful," IF you want to avoid the giant shootout. I think the mission is called Highly Illegal and Highly Moral.

@@Redman_real LOL you think a substantial updates coming to a dead game
I've thought Capitale is completely useless since it was added to the game. I don't bother to even go after it now, I occasionally loot NPC bodies that have these useless pieces of paper but that's it. I bought a lock breaker ages ago and I've rarely used it, I did find one locked door a while ago with two options, use a lock breaker or kick it open. I was annoyed so I kicked the damn thing open :-)
I have not yet tried playing these "Capitale missions" XD - I was to bored of RDO at the release. So I never came to testing it out. Was to busy learning more in GTO at the time
Even Martelli doesnt care about capitale, since everyone in the world has stolen capitale from him. If he cares, shouldnt he protect it better?
The funny thing is that lock breaker is used for opening the back part of some stage coaches but you can just either shoot it open or if your weapon is equipped use your weapon as lock breaker
Hey capitale is one of the most useful items.in game ........how else we supposed to wipe our asses out there in the wilderness?
@@Big-BossX i didnt even know that lol
To be fair the iron sight upgrade is more useful if you decide to actually use them while in first person (aim and press down on the D-Pad. If you have a scope it doesn't work.)
Omg I have been playing so long and didn't know you could aim down sites💀
Yeah I always aim down sights when off my horse
@@Lingist081I came here a little late. But I couldn’t believe he didn’t say that😂 it also instantly switches to first person and back to original when already aiming. It’s perfect
The binoculars depends on the type of player.... They are pretty good for bounty hunting or trader which requires lots of hunting... Trust me I rather use than that using eagle eye every few seconds... It's like a longer eye so if you use that a lot it's a good purchase
Pvpcat hates things in the intended context and once he gives up, he never looks back haha
Hello there!
YES for bounty hunting they are great
Iron sights allow aim down sight in first person to add realism. It DOES make it more accurate in first person but will ruin your view as you aim.
I was waiting for the lock breaker to show. It's nice to have in the actual game, but not online.
You can open the back of stagecoaches quietly
@Tim B I've never been able to use it on a stage coach. It'll give me the Luton to "break," but it's literally just an animation of my character hitting the lock with whichever weapon or sidearm in currently holding.
@@khi437 you need have no weapon equiped otherwise you will smash it with your gun

i have to disagree about the lock breaker. before i bought it i was struggling to make money, i had to use my knife to kill enemies while everyone else had revolvers, rifles, dynamites... i was living in a camp with some old drunk guy. but ever since i bought the lock breaker i became a millionaire, i own a customized villa in mexico, i have a personal train that unlocks robbing other players' trains, i can rob banks, my character can finally speak and it allowed me to level up to rank 4200 and now i can sell wild horses for 3.69 dollars. the lock breaker is the best thing ever but pvpcat is a noob and doesn't know how to use it.
btw, the iron sights help you when playing in first person. they don't help your character, they help you, the player, but me personally i never play in first person so it's...meh..
new copypasta just dropped
can you imagine if Nazar had a 3 wolf moon shirt?? COmbine that with the lock breaker and even Elon Musk would call you Boss
LOL V ;)
You must be an alternate universe cause I wish we could own trains
@@Redman_real Big Smoke *damn intensifies*
Iron sights basically just zoom in more when you aim.
They are good for first person free aim use them all the time and I barely miss
I never thought to try playing the free aim lobbies in first person, I'm gonna have to test that out.
@@BleedingUranium i think I still play in aim assist but ngl it's quite fun when you have a rifle or 2 good revolvers with iron sights (navy's are my personal favourites)
LOL. Early in beta I bought a Belgian Draft horse. I did this because I saw one in free roam. I thought, Christ that is one big bastard. I wonder how many animals he can carry.
I didn’t realize I would have to buy a new stable slot and a new saddle if I wanted to switch between horses. I took nearly all of my money. I was kinda pissed off at the time because he still held one large and two medium animals. Hoss and I ended forming a tight bond. I was broke af after that for a long time. Now I love Hoss, he is my tightest homie in the game. I can’t ride most other horses now because I feel like I’m on a raggedy ass baby horse.
Started a second character a couple weeks before blood money, just to see how it was for a new player.. But having those years of experience taught me SO much about what NOT to buy.. Sad thing is, by 3 months in I had all roles fully ranked, was well over rank 100 with plenty of extra gold and cash saved up for the update that wasn't, by December I had over 300 gold, nearly 40 thousand cash and nothing worth buying. Its like rockstar isn't even TRYING to monetize this game, my primary character has over 3 thousand gold and 700k in cash.. I doubt i will ever get to spend much of it
If you dont mind me asking, how do you make a second character on rdo or is it just using a different device/account?
@@Jkooowb you create a new account
@@Jkooowb I "retired" meaning deleted, my first character. If you do that, you start with all the old character's gold bars and money, so I spent all but 25 gold bars and $2k. (It took hours to spend the $180,000 and 1800 gold bars my old character had. - I bought nearly all the clothing in the game. But it was fun to start over.
@@MrPeteJahn Fair enough I dont think I could part with my retarted looking character however hes just too good
just started a new character as well, rank 95 (enough for all ammo pamphlets for self defense) in less than two weeks maybe. now i got nothin to do so im leveling up the most random shit, i love the game but im so damn bored theres not much to do when you start getting ideas outside of what the roles limit you to. the whole game can be summarized by “hey go ride over there, kill someone or bring be a burlap sack, and ill give u $7.50” is a damn shame this game doesnt bring in money like gta, cause then theyd actually pay attention to it
Sadly, you have described all of my purchases in RDO so far...
9:30 Trolling from Rockstar is the two times they awarded us multiple pieces of an indestructible item we can carry only one of, thus the extras stay in our lockbox _forever._
This man really updated the title 2 years later, bruh the upload date is right under the video
"maybe someday rockstar will fix it" man that's some top tier comedy right there
5:00 I think refined binoculars are great. Although they aren't good for getting the collectibles, they are great for hunting. I'm always hunting, so being able to spot animals in the dark that are really far away is great. They are worth it for hunting, but if your buying them specifically to find collectibles, then your wasting money.
The golden cores for the horses through selfmade horsefood is very useful in combat to tank up your horse and push opponents.
Yeah ! And his ammo belt statement is mostly wrong because only shotgun shells belt is useful... If you buy revolver ammo for exemple there will be only extra carry for regular... Or everyone uses at least express !!! So it's absolute waste because you can't have extra express ammo in the process + you can nearly buy ammo on the fly anyway.
Until your horse takes a slug or something to the head and instantly dies anyway
The Litchfield repeater was my first serious purchase after my Arabian. After using a Lancaster, I am mistified how I used that slab of metal on a regular basis.
The iron sights one is kinda understandable, but its only suppose to make a difference for when the weapon degrades, the accuracy would only go up if it clears the full bar (at least this is how Im pretty sure the system works)
it sort of useful in FP mode
I agree 110% with all of these, Cat! SO MUCH that stupid lock breaker and the refined binoculars. I don't even care about the money I just get annoyed having to scroll past the binoculars in my wheel. I'll also add: any of the variant bolas. A cosmetic that you barely can see when using. Unless you are someone who uses and loses lots of bolas during PvP, there is zero reason to have anything more than 2-3 normal bolas.
unless you want to bring in a group of bounties while soloing.
my most regretted purchased was a lipstick update that destroyed my preferred make up opacity, causing my character to look like an insane trollop
Seriously, why do they only let us change makeup opacity in character creator? I basically can't change my character's makeup without spending $400 or else looking like a prostitute.
You're a guy worrying about make up in a video game ?
I remember buying a lot of dumb stuff as a new player like lockbreaker, naturalist role first, elephant rifle because it's goofy, black turkoman as soon as I had the gold, wasting my time getting the golden egg collector buckle before I knew of the collector map existence and I never really regretted anything.
Elephant rifle is amazing. I love that thing. It was my first purchase as well. It's very satisfying to kill people or pve with it
Nah, double actions are a nice challenge without pib, I would recommend for higher ranks
Of course Micah would say that
I swear man, once you kinda "figure out" the doubles they do some serious work
Try them with gunslingers choice. Thank me later
Micah... I tried..
Of course the owner of the double action would say that...
I brought iron sights on all because it was something to spend money on🌚 no point have hundreds of thousands and nothing to spend it on 😅 I even upgraded all the cards I might just sell the game it’s never gonna get the love it deserves
Im on that card journey RN buying and upgrading any card I might find useful in the future because why not it’s fun to mess around with different builds
Fun fact: imitating firing the elephant rifle and rlits recoil is the best way to fall out of your chair and crack your knuckles. Talking from experience
There is two types of beginners,those who wanted to play the game by themselves thus they will achieve everything slow,and those that got into the game cause they got high lvl friends making it one week to have your own first role
Totally forgot about the lock breaker that I bought. I can’t ever remember using it 🤷🏻♂️
I think the Iron sights help for 1st person aiming which I noticed you didn't try or clip while shooting the double action off.
Not many players even know about the 1st person aiming in RD2/RDO
No one knows about it because no one uses it, rockstar seems to have a trend of making bad FP animations, they could be WAY better. I get it’s not meant to be a first person shoot but why make first person if you don’t want to make decent animations for it?
iron sight brings out the reticle as you have the gun in hand so you can shoot from the hip
The litchfield repeater is my favorite weapon in this game. I have been using it consistently since I bought it over two years ago. I have never regret buying the litchfield repeater.
Yeah it’s better than the Lancaster
"...they will promise you more than you'll receive, just like Tinder" lol love it!
haha i caught that too.. i love this guy..
I put Vitalism studies animal transform in #1 spot, easily. At least Capitale CAN be USED for something in the game, even if it’s a terrible waste/investment loss as you point out. Also, I slightly disagree with Come Back Stronger card. Yes it is completely useless for PVP but I actually use it with the other 2 meta defense cards when doing bounties. It helps a good amount to run in and hogtie multiple bounties while you are eating bullets. To prevent from accidentally shooting bounty targets in the chaos, tie them all up first then shoot everyone else. Otherwise, your list is pretty solid.
There is one random Bounty event in New Austin where near the NPC you need to capture there is a wagon, hostages tied up and chest that can only be opened with the lock breaker. I have not purchased such item yet, but that event is tempting me.
try drawing a weapon and shooting or hitting the lock, it will probably break
The Butcher bounty...just did that the other day... finally decided to level up my bounty hunter after 2 years
if you need 1 chewing tobacco and 7 regular revolver rounds from that chest, buy the lock breaker
Worst purchase in Red Dead Online is buying the standalone version of Red Dead Online 😂😂
Especially when ultimate edition was on sale for 30 bucks
Come back stronger is actually good card when you are riding horse and getting shot at by enemies. Plus because how pvp modes work, when you kill someone you will have little time to cover or heal, so that extra 25% you get from waiting at lvl3 makes big difference.
I was suprised to see the Litchfield on here its actually my favorite repeater 😅 i tried out the evans and hated it. The accuracy was terrible compared to my litchfield.
Use the Lancaster
Many people don't know this. But your character actually has to get used to the weapon, before it gets up to it's full potential. The longer you use a certain weapon the better the handling gets. That's why your character handles the Litchfield better than the Evans. 👍🏼😎
Litchfield's accuracy is definitely worse than Evans.
Evans is straight up only good for close range hip fire lock ons.
Love that it says “Worst purchases in RDO in 2024” even thought this was uploaded 2 years ago lmaooo
Rdo is never getting a update so even in 20 years this video will still be true
Blood Money was also the worst Rdr2 update by far. I was upset when the Naturalist update broke the game for like 2 months but at least you had a chance of finding legendary animals which were a awesome addition to the game. Blood Money leaves you with absolutely nothing minus a couple of hats. The final missions of Blood Money are lazy miserable survival missions against mobs spawning in on screen from every direction and you are just running like a madman. It has zero replay value and it isn't enjoyable in any sense. Frontier Pursuits was excellent and the Moonshiner update was Excellent. I also enjoyed the expansion to the Bounty Hunter role. I fear that the good expansions are a thing of the past now since its fairly clear that we aren't getting much until Rdr3.
U really think they plan on making a 3rd after this 😂😂
I don't know man, i had a lot of fun using the lock breaker when i first bought it. It helps to unlock wagons chests sneakly
Agree, but the thing is, by the time you get to this part everyone will be dead, so I guess it counts as stealth lol
@@LightCrasher nah i remember opening chests from wagons when they were standing still for some reason and the passengers would never notice lol
Great video. Absolutely agree. 💯. I was waiting for the Lock Breaker. Thought it would be #1 but your choice for #1 was much better. 🤠👍
Yeah, we have a new Champion here :)
0:30 Iron Sights are used for First Person when you bring it up to your face and shoot nothing more nothing less I believe
the way you say Nacodoches is so satisfying
R* should add some Nacodoches color schemes to purchase imho
Two Things:
1) The Refined Binoculars are good for identifying your bounties from a distance. This way you can tag them before engaging and never lose a bounty. You can also identify the animal viewing the scent trail, much like that of eagle eye, which can help in hunting some animals.
2) Capitale is the worst thing every. Not only do you have to spend it for opportunity missions, but if they crash, and for me, they ALWAYS CRASH, you CAN NOT GET REFUNDED FROM ROCKSTAR FOR IT. Thus making it the most useless update EVER!!!
you need to go into first person and press down on the d pad to make the iron sights useful as you aim using the iron sights doing this.
So many people don’t know this very useful tip!
Don't know if it's been said yet but the number one worst thing to purchase in red dead online in 2022 is purchasing red dead online in 2022.
you can use the LockBreaker to stealthily rob some coaches with a lockbox, a random NPC bounty event in new austin, or in the blood money mission where there's a gem in the sheriffs office, you can unlock that stealthily without needing the key from the sherrif
so two instances where one is random?
Good point but his point is its a bad purchase for new players. I would classify "new" as anyone below lvl 150. I have it and have not knowingly ever used it.
@@ThatGuy-cb3yv new is anyone below 30
@@ThatGuy-cb3yv new is like under 50. 100 is like 200 hours in the game or something (realistically)
I use the free black thoroughbred race horse with nocadoches/hooded stirrups. But the mustang horses are the best bang for your buck
Worst thing you can do in RDO is invest time in grinding it. It is neglected and you will just lose your time.
Time spent having fun is never time wasted. Even if it's in a bug filled mess neglected by its corporate pimp.
@@THEUrinalCake That is true, but I was talking about grinding. Grinding for the "future", like you do in most games. It is pointless in RDO.
Agreed. But in the beginning I liked shooting birds and picking herbs was a little bit of nature therapy. But you do get bored of it.
@@ritedas7873 Sort of pointless up until now at least. Takes a miracle to change this game to become everlasting? I think it is almost hopeless. It takes real geniouses to morph this title into something fun again, is my belief
@@grilsegrils9330 Those geniuses who could have made it possible left r* already unfortunately. t2 kills and corrupts everything it touches.
Refined Binos work really well for the Naturalist role. You can spot, track, and study the animal from farther away if you don't have any blending tonic
IMO If you play PVE, any repeater (and basically any other weapon) that you like will do. Choose whatever you like, because playing against bots is pretty easy. Personally, Litchfield is my favourite repeater, because it's the only one that actually requiers effort to shoot, I like the recoil and the heaviness of every shot, and the damage is pretty high. But yet again, almost all repeaters are the same IMO, so I would suggest anything that you like. I treat weapons in RDO like an actual thing that has value, not a statistic
It's easy, but not for beginners. + In PVP or competitive PVE (CTA solo) difference is noticeable
1:00 ironsight works great for anyone playing first person
My worst purchase back then was probably the trader role. Now hear me out right-
I bought at first cause I just liked the simplicity and all, and I still do for the most part. The problem is that I unknowingly bought the role back when animal spawns were bugged, so I essentially dumped 15 gold bars on a role that I couldn't even use. I distinctly remember running around for like half an hour trying to find one pronghorn buck or sumthin'. Not very good times back then. ._.
And when you finally found some animals, your camp wouldn't spawn anymore 🤣
I use all of the repeaters for different tasks when i have the option. I don't like the elite handling styles on the horses but my internet speed and game controllers are hot garbage, so i don't only blame one thing. I do wish that i had stuck with the small delivery wagon for the trader role. I enjoyed the way it drove much better than the bigger slower wagons.
I played for 2 days grinding random online jobs to buy that double bandolier thinking I’ll hold more ammo and come to find out I spent almost $400 for no reason and the “delete game” meter went up by 2
The worst purchase in RDO is RDO itself. It gives you false hope on good content.
Idk I paid $10 for it and I've played it for almost 200 hours. Feels like a good value.
@@THEUrinalCake, I know, I was just joking. The game is really not bad at all. Spent a lot of time as well.
Bro changed that name FAST for the new year
My biggest regret was the toxic moonshine pamphlet way back when I started the moonshiner role, For some reason I thought it was gonna give me a recipe to make moonshine to sell at a higher price and I even chose this purchase over the distiller upgrade 😂😂 Also I regretted buying the semi auto shotgun so early when I already had the pump, Until you start collecting every weapon the pump is just better
Love that pamphlet! It's so often a daily, that the gold is worth the pamphlet I think...
Iron sights do something and that's condition reinforce, making it longer for it to drop aim as condition gets worse

Yeah that got me too lol
if you play first person and intend to use iron sights upgrrading them is in some cases useful because it can make them more usable, in some cases though the upgraded sights provide a worse sight picture.
one thing about the Ammo Pouch Pamphlets. They only increase your Regular Bullet Capacity. I bought the Repeater Pouch and was disappointed to find this out.
so the ones that are useful are the Varmint Ammo and the Shotgun. I almost never use Regular ammo except to craft Split Point Rounds
Arrows too
Honestly why would anyone use regular ammo? It’s BARELY cheaper than express. If i run out of express i still have split point and high Velocity. Never use regular ammo
It's nice for pistols too simply because they really don't give you enough ammo, and too much for revolvers.
@@reonthornton685 it can be useful, but you have express, split point, high Velocity and then the regular ammo as well. I think itd just be cheaper to use the alternate ammo instead right?
@@bigmanbarry2299 Eh honestly the problem is you'll run out of those extra ammo's quite a lot with pistols unless if you're using the Volcanic and the boost of express is much less significant with them.
You can't exactly stop to craft split points in the middle of a shootout.
Dammit! Should've watched this before purchasing an elephant gun! There's not even any elephants in RDO!
Call to Arms made me genuinely try using Litchfield because Wave 5 to 10 has litchfield pickups. The gun is so goddamn inefficient in a pinch. Especially that mode you need quick headshots and Litchfield takes way too damn long for that accuracy circle to close tight around aiming reticule. And that’s only for standing there, in cover it’s a tad faster but once you move that accuracy circle grows exponentially and shooting center mass from range leads to a lot of flat out misses. Even up close trying for that damned headshot is a trial, sending 6 bullets before even one hits, and it’ll hit the shoulder!
Fuck the Litchfield Repeater lol
A wasted my money on litchfield Mauser because of a friend 1200 dollars down the drain
Litchfield is for paint it black user's 2 body shots and they are dead does not matter if its in the foot 2 shots anywhere. Its the only time its useful keep in mind that's with express ammo not regular.
Thats most likely because you haven't use it enough to level up your familiarity with it.
When riding horses that have lower health, ride like the wind is really useful (some people don't only ride the black arabian)
First bad purchase would be this game. Just wait like 3 more years and then it will be decent.

Elephant rifle is arguably amazing... For only pvp, lemme explain:
So elephant rifle does alot of damage in just one shot, and you get two, in mid-close range it is better than any other weapon as you can use dead eye with it unlike other one shot weapons (Carcano, Rolling), so now you have the upper hand in any mid-close range PvP scenario. In my experience is best used on people when they turn a corner. This ofcourse is not using and form or anything close to the definition of skill.

If you bought the Lock Breaker and are still working on doing bounties to level bounty hunter, you can use it in Yukon's legendary bounty to break the locks for the grizzly bears, etc. This ofc will make everyone fight the bears and wolves instead, if you do it silently of course.
I saw mausers in description and had to watch they may not be best for beginners cause they're expensive but i love dual wielding the mauser pistols they sound great and shoot and reload fast so once you can afford purchase
i think the iron sights are intended to be used if you actually use first person and use the weapon zoom to use the true iron sights
They are much more worthwhile on first person but they also do provide a accuracy boost which can be nice.
After a couple of thosand hours of playing both the story mode and the online mode. Though I had hundreds of bars of gold and thousand of dollars of cash. I restarted the game from the beginning. I spent a lot of time buying shit, then restarting until all my gold and cash was gone. Took quite a while and a vast number of restarts to do. But now I'm playing a style that is much more conducive to one living in the era of the old West. And having a ball doing it. In the days of old, there were deperado's and bad guys. But the majority of individuals spent their entire lives just eeking out an existence by hunting, fishing, gathering, trading and exploring. This time playing, I've only bought using money I've earned ingame as I go through life as one would have normally during that era in the U.S.A.'s past. A volcano pistol and the cocano rifle and one horse upgrade. I've now got almost 500 hours in to the new play style, and using a modded line of code, boot up the game into a solo lobby which still allows me to have up to three others of like minded players to join me or play themselves in my solo lobby. For as many hours as one wishs. The conventional online playing ability just has to much greiving going on to allow me and my friends to play the way we want to. Which is causing old and new player's to quit.
If RS is actually interested in keeping new player's and bringing back old player's. Which to some degree or other will invest in micro transactions. Then offering one the abiility to have their own lobby and invite whom they wish to partake with or when ever they wish, meaning only those allowed. They would make more money in the long run. Assuming they are in it for the long run.
FYI: Not myself or anyone who plays in my lobby with or without me or the other's. Have no ability cards; NONE; There not needed.
Actually, u cant be more wrong about the DA revolver, the best PVP revolver until u get enough money for the pistols. Navys also can be fine in highl lvl gunfights but are much more expensive and demand much more skill:)
The Navy Revolver reminds me of the way Hand Canons handle in Destiny. Very smooth.
There's an online story mission where you have to ride into Van Horn and kill this bandit's lieutenant or something. If you ride to the back/side of the saloon where the guy is hiding out, you can use the lock breaker to open the door silently, step inside and shoot the lieutenant before anyone notices you're there. It's the only situation where I'd call it "useful," IF you want to avoid the giant shootout. I think the mission is called Highly Illegal and Highly Moral.
You could kick the door down and quickly shoot him
Fun fact there were no new cash purchases from 2021-2022
