@Kidfried Really? I haven't tried setting up camp, yet.

Oh yeah, should I only keep perfect pelts and sell the non-perfect ones until I find a Trapper? I'm looking at items that Pearson can craft and they all seem to require "perfect pelts".

@WanderingBullet Yeah, less than perfect pelts are good for a bit of cash but nothing else.

For me, the trapper was also found near the train station/post office just south of the camp near Valentine. I spent a lot of time going between camp and the trapper in chapter 2 to see if Pearson needed the pelt, if not then it went to the trapper as he needs perfect pelts as well as the legendary ones to craft stuff.

@Thrillho Thanks. Are Pearson's items worth crafting or should I save any perfect pelts I get for trappers?

@WanderingBullet The satchels from Pearson allow you to carry more stuff and each one seems to carry different things but I haven't got whats needed for any of them yet. The rest seems to be mainly cosmetic for the camp but I think raises your honour.

That said, the trapper only makes clothing which is also cosmetic (apart from the slight difference between gear for hot and cold weather) so you can easily avoid hunting altogether if you want.

@Thrillho There was an icon for the trapper when the game introduced the concept to me in Chapter 2, and it sounds like it was roughly where you describe. But the icon has disappeared for me. When will he show back up?

This game can sometimes be really frustrating. Right now I went with Micah if I'm not mistaken to hunt some animals and we did that, I went my own way, and while I was in the middle of somewhere I got a message on my phone. Okay let me check my message, reply, and all of a sudden someone attacked me and killed me in the game and.. And the game tells me that I abandoned my legendary animal! I'm so mad at this game sometimes, I swear from time to time it comes to me that I should just sell it and sometimes I'm enjoying it so much.

I don't remember when was the last time I had such love hate relationship with a game as I have with this one. I feel like I'm in a toxic relationship and I just can't escape it anyway, I'm sorry for my little rant but I had to articulate this. Hope others don't mind me.

@Thrillho Thanks. My only problem seems to be a lack of 3 stars rabbits. Small game arrows don't work for me (even if I hit them, they run away) while those killed by varmint rifle magically go from 3 stars to 2 stars when I skin them...

Praise the Sun, and Mario too.

@Th3solution I remember it seeming to say he does move around but so far he's stayed there for me. However.. he has a permanent base in Saint Denis

@andreoni79 Weird. Rifle shots have been one hit kills for me without having to worry about headshots. Normally the drop in rating is from a non-clean kill.

One more immersion breaking thing just happened - I returned back to the camp and Mrs Grimshaw complained that I should give some money to the camp because they need to buy food. It would be all cool if food icon wasn't white and if I hadn't given some 300-400 usd before that while others collectively gave, to this day, some 50 usd. I guess I should stop playing it for a while, maybe it would get better.

@Th3solution That happened to me with the Trapper. His icon disappeared, but I did eventually find him in the same spot, it just took me a while. It's just east of Riggs Station. I think it's permanent, no idea why the icon disappears though.

@Thrillhou You seem to be a bit of an expert in pelt matters, so here's a question - if I've killed a legendary animal, can I go and kill it again? Or is it a one-time thing? I killed the legendary ram right at the start of the game (it was something like the second animal I killed, completely by accident) and I didn't fully understand the concept of the Trapper at the time, so I gave it to Pearson. He won't give it back, the ingrate.

Good job, Parappa. You can go on to the next stage now.

@Gremio108 you can only kill each legendary animal once, but regardless of what you do with the pelt it will end up with the trapper and he can then craft you stuff from it.

Gremio108

@roe Excellent news, thanks. Seems I might have loaded up a previous save after I killed it, because I had a quick check before and it says in the progress section that I haven't even killed the legendary ram yet. Starting to think I'm making the whole thing up to be honest

Good job, Parappa. You can go on to the next stage now.

@Gremio108 Red Dead Redemption hallucinations. That’s what you’re having.

So Ive had this elite white Arabian horse for a good while and wanting to find a new horse because it s good for racing and all but a bit small. Finaly found a couple of lovely Appaloosa in the wild and the brown one with a white blanket is my main horse now. Stats are average but these big horses are lovely.

The crowd, accepting this immediately, assumed the anti-Eurasian posters and banners everywhere were the result of acts of sabotage by agents of Goldstein and ripped them from the walls.

@JJ2 I've still got the white Arabian. I named her Cassiopeia after my fave constellation (which you can actually see in the game!)
You're barmy if you want to get rid of her. She's a beauty.

@Gremio108 ha, the ram is a devious devil.

But yeah, I think that if you've skinned it then the pelt ends up with the trapper. Some people on another forum I use seem to have had occasional bugs where it doesn't show up after they've handed it over though. I'd be gutted if that happened to me.

And they are indeed one time kills. The map is even updated with a cross through the animal once you've done it.

@ApostateMage
Oh not getting rid of her. She's part of my stable but not my main horse anymore.

My wife has started her own file now, so there's a bit of a power struggle going on in our house. She has already hunted down the legendary bear as well as several other legendary animals. I'm feeling quite inadequate - it's clear who's going to be the breadwinner when we're living in a post-apocalyptic wasteland.

@Thrillho Well I've not got the ram or the cross through it marked on the map, so that clears that one up. Which means I killed the legendary ram but then loaded up a previous save. Idiot

Good job, Parappa. You can go on to the next stage now.
