Gold is harder to come by, you get so little for each event, half or a quarter or even less sometimes. It can be a slog that's for sure.

Immediately went to Madame Nazar and sold it, up over $13 grand now. Maybe I should buy that horse?

For those who don't know, the condor egg hunt is a free roam event where the players are teleported to an area where a single condor egg will spawn in a semi-random location. There are a few guides online where these locations are, but so far I haven't found a comprehensive list of them. In this area, I had three possible locations marked on my map. It's just a matter of being the first player to the spot it spawns and getting the egg, once someone finds it, the event is over. So, the first location I went to had the egg, and with a couple other players hot on my tail, I picked it up. Done and done, and $1,000 richer.

nice one

Those other players on your heels, it surprised me that apparently they didn't kill you.

Your money, do what you want. Who knows what R* will put on weekly bonuses/sale on Tuesday

[Dweller_Benthos]

Yeah every time I think of getting a new horse, I'm either not near a stable or have something else going on, and never do it. One of these days I'll make a special trip and do it. Maybe I'll wait and see if they put horses on sale tomorrow lol.

Art - this is one of the few free roam events (the only one maybe?) where there is no PvP, at least I've never encountered any during it. There are enemy NPCs though that will kill you and it's one life only, once you die, you spectate the rest of the match. Usually though, the match doesn't last long enough for anyone to die by fighting NPCs, but a couple times it took a while for the egg to be found, and in one case it was never found, the timer ran out. People in chat were saying that it didn't spawn in any of the locations they knew, so it either was in a new location or bugged out and didn't spawn at all.

Dweller, OK. Regarding horses, I understand that you cannot get wild horses in online so I recommend you study whatever sources where to buy which horse and which one might suit your riding style. From what I've gathered so far, "my" Tennessee Walker type wouldn't be so ideal for you because you said you can't get fast enough anywhere. I reckon you need something suitable for long(er) journeys with sufficient stamina to support a long gallop as well as sufficient speed to get somewhere quickly. Speed and Stamina should be high, I reckon. From what I know, that typically comes at a price as in you're likely get a horse with less health and it will probably be skittish. The latter is however a very common trait so the only downside will likely be low health. That means, don't get into firefights with it and don't hurl it off cliffs.

[Dweller_Benthos]

Yeah there's a horse that's available for the collector role specifically, Criollo or something like that, it's what Low Poly has or had and it seems to be the stats I'd want, just how skittish it is I don't know. But considering Low Poly takes his off cliffs and such without much care, I think it's a tough horse lol. I was right near a stable (I don't think it matters what stable you use in the online game) just didn't bother going in and getting it.

OK

I went in the saloon in Emerald Ranch to get a collectible whiskey bottle and someone had stolen all the furniture, including the bar, leaving everything else floating there, very funny.

That took a while, lol. So I finally bought the butcher table for my camp to start doing the trader stuff, and next time I'm in a town, I'll get the bounty hunter license. Also bought a bunch of stuff for the camp, still have over $20 grand left, lol. Did use a chunk of my gold fast though, only have a little over 50 bars now. Once I get the bounty hunter, it'll be less. I missed the sale where both things were only 10 gold instead of the normal 15, ah well.

I have the second horse, the criollo, which I've been using, I have no plans to get another, I can't be bothered, heh.
