The camp in Red Dead Redemption 2 is an important gathering point for you and your gang. We will show you how you can upgrade the camp and what benefits it brings.
At the camp in Red Dead Redemption 2, there are many upgrades you can purchase. They will help you with ammunition, food, and also the Dead Eye system.
We will show you in this overview how the camp works and which upgrades are worthwhile for you.
The Ledger in RDR 2 – Where is it and what can it do?
The ledger is an important part of your camp. That’s where you buy the upgrades.
Where is the ledger? You can find it behind Dutch’s tent. If the ledger is not displayed to you yet, you must first complete a mission for Mr. Strauss. He wants you to collect debts.
Camp upgrades in RDR 2
At your camp by Horseshoe Overlook, you can upgrade seven things:
Medicine
For Strauss’ wagon
Supplies
For Pearson’s wagon
Weapons and ammunition
For Arthur’s wagon
Accommodation
Horse Station
Chicken Coop
Leatherworking Tool
What does upgrading bring? If you upgrade medicine, supplies, or weapons and ammunition, your camp will be stocked with various items. You won’t have to pay for them after you purchase the upgrade. Just go to the corresponding symbol on the minimap, and you can collect items for healing, ammunition, or food.
After that, you only pay for refilling the respective supplies.
Upgrading the accommodation: This is an important category that opens up many new possibilities for you. Because after you upgrade Dutch’s tent, your gang members will be more motivated to contribute a few coins to the fund. The second upgrade then allows you a special travel method. This is how you unlock fast travel in Red Dead Redemption 2.
What does upgrading the horse station bring: If you ever lose sight of your horse, you can call the horse back at the camp. Additionally, you can conveniently bring horses from the stable to you at the upgraded station.
Unlocking the rowboat: As you progress through the main story, at some point, you will unlock the option to buy the rowboat. It costs 450$. So look for a gold bar and you will easily have the price covered. You can find it under the structural upgrades. Here you can find gold bars in Red Dead Redemption 2.
What am I supposed to do with a chicken coop? Friends of the Dead Eye system cannot avoid the chicken coop. The eggs boost Pearson’s stews so much that his stew now also fills the Dead Eye meter.
Upgraded Leather Tool – What does it bring?
If you buy the upgraded leatherworking tool, you will unlock additional features at Pearson. He can then create great bags for tonics, supplies, or valuables for you.
As a result, Pearson can also build cosmetic items like deer skulls at the camp entrance or a puma fur chest for Arthur’s tent.
