Running fast, for example, increases your stamina, and the damage you take increases your health over time. All your abilities will improve if you take care of yourself and lead a healthy lifestyle.

Recipes

Robberies
Complete all the robberies at least once.
Always go to work with a mask or bandana on;
When robbing, do not forget to take a lot of weapons and ammunition with you. Where and how to find the best guns in the game, you can find out in our other guide;
Try to avoid unnecessary victims. If a bounty is placed on your head, each kill will only increase the total penalty you will have to pay;
Before the robbery, carefully study the place that you are going to rob. If this is a store, carefully walk around it from all sides and look in the windows. Sometimes you may discover something secret. For example, the doctor in Valentine hides contraband, so if you decide to rob him, he will take you to a secret room, in which you will receive not only bundles of money, but also a Schofield revolver;
Most of the money is stored in weapons stores. In addition, the amount of money in the cash register depends on the region in which the store is located. Try to rob stores in major cities like Saint-Denis;
If you lose at cards and can’t accept the loss, rob the winner;
Some people need a good kick to make them want to give you their money. Sometimes you can shoot in the air to scare the victim;
Do not go to work during the day. You risk setting an army of lawyers on you;
Before the robbery, order the horse to be near the place that you are going to rob. In this case, during the escape, you do not have to whistle and wait until your horse deigns to gallop.
List of possible robberies:
1. Stagecoach raids and home break-ins;
In Red Dead Redemption 2, you can rob almost any passerby. Did you see a rich couple walking in the woods? Rest assured, they have something to profit from. Did you kill a lot of people during the shootout? Don’t forget to clean their bodies. The main thing is not to overdo it with robberies, if you do not want to earn a bad reputation. Otherwise, people will avoid you.
Don’t forget about stagecoach robberies. This is the kind of carriage with cargo that you will often see during your journey. Before you commit a robbery, be sure to check if there are any boxes in the cart. If they are not there, you may be left with nothing, so do not start a robbery if you are not sure of its feasibility.
If you see a lot of cargo in the cart, kill the carrier, jump into the cart and quickly clean out all the boxes there. In most cases, valuable stagecoaches are accompanied by security, so be prepared for a shootout. In some cases, you can find a very valuable reward in the carts — $200 or more.
2. Shop robberies;
Nothing complicated. First, wait for the evening time of day, when there will be the least people on the street. Enter any shop you like and wait until dark. The seller will not throw you out on the street, so feel free to wait for the perfect moment. Put on a mask, then point the gun directly at the seller.
In the lower-right corner of the screen, a menu will appear where you need to select the phrase “Rob”. After that, the seller will give you all the money from the cash register. If he doesn’t want to pay, shoot the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ and clean out the cash register yourself. Try to act quickly, so that the lawyers do not have time to arrive at the scene of the crime.
In stores, as a rule, there are many more valuable things that you can take with you in addition to money. When you have everything you need, quickly run out into the street, call your horse and ride away. In some cases, you may be noticed by a random person who will run to tell the sheriff about what happened. In this case, it will be marked on the map as a red eye. Try to catch up with the snitch and kick his ass properly.
3. Train robberies.
There are two ways to rob a train. The first is to go to the station (look for the post office icon on the map) and wait for the train to stop, then go inside. The second is to find the railway and wait for the train to appear. When he rides, you can jump on the roof directly from your horse.
Remember that you need a passenger train. In simple words, it should have a lot of people, and therefore money. When you go inside, wait until the train leaves a sufficient distance from the populated areas. Look carefully at the map. Then ask the driver to stop the transport, and then quickly run to the car with the passengers.
Point a gun at the person so that he will give you his money. As a rule, each passenger has 3-4 dollars, but they will also give you their jewelry. For them, by the way, you can get much more. Try to do everything quickly, because the lawyers arrive mostly 3-5 minutes after the start of the robbery. When you rob a train, quickly leave the scene of the crime and make sure that you are not followed. For robbing a train, you can get $100-200. Sometimes more.
