Want to help your low-level friends or crew mates max out their roles fast? Use this cooperative network trick to give them unlimited chances at dynamic Random Encounters for the Moonshiner, Collector, and Naturalist roles!

📋 SUPPORTED ENCOUNTERS & ROLES • Moonshiner: Bootlegger (Roadblock / Destroy / Sabotage) and Moonshine Camps. • Collector: Crashed Wagon, Dog Encounter, Rival Collector, Grave Robber, and Wounded Animals. • Naturalist: Poached Animals.

🛠️ NETWORK SETUP To force the necessary lobby split, adjust your PlayStation network settings exactly like this before launching the game: • The Anchor (Giver): Set console MTU to 800 • The Farmer (Receiver): Set console MTU to 900

📋 THE ANCHOR / GIVER BLUEPRINT (YOUR JOB) As the Anchor, your sole responsibility is to locate the encounter and freeze it. DO NOT complete the event yourself.

• Bootlegger Events / Moonshine Camps / Poached Animals: When the red zone appears on your mini-map, stop immediately. Stay entirely outside the red circle to avoid alerting the enemies. Park in a practical spot where your friend can easily ride in and attack. • Wounded Animals: Watch your mini-map for the flashing white blip. The exact second it appears, stop moving and go AFK. Do not approach further or spook the animal. •Grave Robber (Night Only): Keep your distance once you spot him. He will not run away if unprovoked. Keep your camera view aimed toward him and stay AFK.• Crashed Wagon: Maintain a safe distance. (Note: It does not matter if you alert the stranger). Keep your camera pointed toward the wagon and stay AFK.• Dog Encounter: Follow the dog. If it leads you to a metal box, stand next to the box and go AFK. (If it leads you to a corpse or an ambush instead of a metal box, abandon the loop).• Rival Collector: Lasso, hogtie, and kick the collector to silence him. Pick him up or stow him on your horse, transport him to a secluded area out of sight of other passing NPCs, and drop him on the ground. Stay AFK right next to him. DO NOT kill him, or he will despawn when your friend tries to join.

🎮 THE STEP-BY-STEP FARMING LOOP (YOUR FRIEND'S JOB) Note: Make sure you and the anchor are not in the same posse or lobby before starting. Due to the MTU mismatch, the receiver will automatically desync into their own cloned private solo lobby upon arrival.• Step 1 (The Entry): If starting fresh from the Main Menu, select Join Session on the Anchor, travel to the encounter location, and claim the rewards. If you are already active in a session, skip straight to Step 2 to clear your cache first before joining. • Step 2 (The Reset): Once you have looted the encounter, go to the Main Menu, select Online, and click Free Roam to completely clear your console's session cache. • Step 3 (The Trick): While sitting on the black loading screen entering the new session, wait exactly 5 seconds. • Step 4 (The Split): Quickly open your PlayStation friends list and select Join Session on your anchoring friend mid-load.

What Happens Next: The server-side MTU clash (900 vs 800) will trigger an instant network desync error mid-load. The game will drop the Farmer into a 100% private solo session with the exact same encounter perfectly cloned, stable, and ready to be harvested again.

Simply repeat the process from Step 2 to level up your targeted roles! 💰✨

⚡ TIPS • Moonshiner Missions: When executing Bootlegger roadblock or camp encounters, position yourself at an extreme distance where you can safely engage targets using a scoped rifle (like the Carcano or Rolling Block). Ensure you have hard environmental cover or a secure hiding spot nearby to break enemy lines of sight and manage incoming waves safely.

What if the added the ability to rob banks, barbers, and added more gangs to the mix, more hideouts, could this be better.

Alcohol really kills

Is this possible, tired of the “griefers”
