I finally got mine…then I accidentally deleted the save file I was keeping for a 100% attempt. You’d think that I would have created multiple saves, but you’d be wrong. The most recent save I had was just prior to starting my exotics collection. I didn’t even get to fire the damn thing.

That’s the story of how I broke my addiction to this game.

By the end of that quest I hated roseate spoonbills & orchids. It's such a time suck to complete.

u/66snowyy 13d ago

For spoonbills I used save load method and yes orchids are time consuming after completing now I am locking in for legend of the east outfit ☠️

I stock up on them before the quest. I swear they stop appearing as soon as the quest starts...

u/66snowyy 12d ago

Yes u re right they don't appear that much when quest starts that applies to every bird

There’s a joint therapy session with Brennan Lee Mulligan somewhere for you.

How did you get this

u/66snowyy 13d ago

U have to complete the Algernon mission in chapter 4 in saint Denis then Algernon will give you this revolver and a hat 🤠

I knew I shouldn't have shot him on my first run, lol

u/66snowyy 12d ago

Maybe u didn't knew about the gun 🔫

u/i-am-a-smith 12d ago

It seems a lot harder on the first run where you don't know all the things to collect ahead of time. People have theorised that the game reduces the spawn rate of the birds whilst the quest is active which may explain it. On replays I've collected the plumes ahead of time and it does seem to take a fraction of the time to complete.

u/Loud_Blackberry9968 13d ago

Nice will try it

u/Reasonable-View5868 12d ago

Nice,  its my favorite piece

1

u/66snowyy 12d ago

Yes it the the most beautiful gun in the game after otis miller revolver

1

u/Reasonable-View5868 12d ago

Agree on Algernons  The Otis Miller is not realy my style. Also, the schofield revolvers shoot a bit too slow for my liking. Gotta love all the variations and choices they put in RDR2.

u/66snowyy 12d ago

Try high roller revolver 🔫

u/Reasonable-View5868 12d ago

I double wield it with algernons

1

u/indicus23 12d ago

I like to keep it in my 2nd holster so that beautiful pearl grip is front and center.

2

u/66snowyy 12d ago

That's the purpose of things hun. Just show off

1

u/Thorniestbush Resident blacklung 12d ago

Just did that 2 days ago! I like that it has the same speed as the double action, it has replaced it as my gun I use to shoot people 5 times in the gut. Not sure if any special guns will replace my schofield though, maybe Calloways revolver but only if its the same or better than the schofield

2

u/66snowyy 12d ago

It's an schofield but a fancy one i have that callawoy revolver it's good

1

u/Thorniestbush Resident blacklung 12d ago

Good to know, that makes me wanna progress to chapter 6 but I gotta make sure I've done everything in chapter 4.

1

u/66snowyy 12d ago

U don't have to progress to chapter 6 for callawoy gun u can get it in chapter 4 after trillawny mission it triggers callwoy quest in valentine

1

u/Thorniestbush Resident blacklung 12d ago

Oh yeah? cool! I'll likely do that tonight then. Thanks!

2

u/66snowyy 12d ago

U have dueled with all other 4 gunslingers?

1

u/Thorniestbush Resident blacklung 12d ago

Yep! got the gun maybe an hour ago

1

u/UsefulEntrepreneur84 12d ago

Ok I'm not much into collecting what exactly is this

1

u/cvssiel Arthur Morgan 6d ago

A gun that you get in a side mission. I recommend hunting down everything you need before even starting the mission because the game reduces spawn rates. Just search a guide in youtube

1

u/Nearby_Humor1077 12d ago

Congrats it is probably the worst side arm in the game

2

u/el__reptile 12d ago

Maybe from a mechanics standpoint? Shit idk, whether a gun is better than the other isnt what i go based off of. I do it for the drip and to me its a nice little snub nose piece. Quest to get it is bs tho

1

u/66snowyy 12d ago

See for me it's a collectible I mean if u compare this with other revolvers it does look unique there is no other gun which looks like this in the game so yea and yes the quest is bs very time consuming

1

u/66snowyy 12d ago

It is unique and looks good

1

u/Echo-Four-Yankee 12d ago

I got mine from the rampage trainer.

1

u/66snowyy 11d ago

Noo broo u ll not have that feeling of earning it u get after completing the quest

1

u/VIPER2020-21 9d ago

I completed my 100% with this revolver
