How Many Pelts Can You Carry Rdr2
The Great Pelt Balancing Act: How Many Can Arthur Really Haul?
Ever played Red Dead Redemption 2 and wondered just how many animal skins Arthur Morgan (or John!) can possibly carry? It's a question that plagues every aspiring virtual mountain man (or woman).
The answer, surprisingly, isn’t exactly a simple number. It’s more of a “depends on the mood” kind of situation. Let's dive in!
The Mount: Your Furry Freight Train
Your trusty steed is your main beast of burden. He’s the unsung hero of the hunting expeditions. He can carry a lot of pelts, but there are rules.
You can drape one large pelt (think bear, moose, or alligator) right over your horse’s rear. Picture it flapping dramatically in the wind as you ride! It's quite the sight.
Additionally, you can stack smaller pelts (deer, wolves, coyotes) on the side of your horse. It’s like a furry saddlebag situation. Up to three of these medium sized ones is possible!
Pocket Pelts and Inventory Insights
Then there's Arthur’s personal stash. He's got a satchel and personal carry capacity, but pelts aren't really suited for that.
Small animals like squirrels, rabbits, and birds can be stashed on your person. They’re less about high value and more about practicality for crafting trinkets, arrows, and the like.
However, you wouldn't want to carry too many of them though because other items like ammo and food are important too!
The Real Limit: Sanity and Patience
While the game may technically let you hoard a certain number of pelts, the real limit is your own sanity. Trust me on this one.
Imagine skinning ten deer, only to be ambushed by a pack of wolves and lose half your haul! The frustration is real.
Besides, constantly visiting the trapper or a fence can get tedious. Hunting quickly transforms from enjoyable to a chore.
Beyond the Numbers: The Art of the Hunt
Ultimately, Red Dead Redemption 2's hunting system isn't just about accumulating the most pelts. It's about the experience.
It’s about the thrill of the chase, the satisfaction of a clean kill, and the connection to the game's wild world. Do you really want to spoil it with a numbers game?
So, instead of stressing about maximizing your pelt count, embrace the journey! Maybe try just hunting enough to craft that perfect outfit and enjoy the ride.
The Unexpected Heartbreak of a Dropped Pelt
Okay, let's be honest. We've all been there. You're galloping across the plains, feeling like a true mountain man.
Then, disaster strikes! Your horse gets spooked, you fall, and that pristine bear pelt you were so proud of tumbles off, disappearing into the digital wilderness. It stings, doesn't it?
It's a moment of virtual heartbreak that reminds us that sometimes, the most valuable things aren't the ones we possess, but the memories we make along the way.
So, How Many *Should* You Carry?
The "right" number of pelts to carry in Red Dead Redemption 2 is the number that lets you have fun. Don’t get bogged down in the details.
Hunt what you need, enjoy the process, and don't be afraid to let a few pelts go if it means avoiding a virtual breakdown. Happy hunting!
Remember, it's a game, and games are meant to be enjoyed. Find your balance, saddle up, and ride into the sunset. With or without a perfect stack of pelts!
