How do I acquire the Rare Legendary Ram Horn?
The Rare Legendary Ram Horn is one of the most sought-after items in Red Dead Redemption 2, primarily used for crafting unique trinkets and talismans at the Fence. To acquire it, you must hunt the Legendary Ram, a special animal found in the game''s vast open world. This guide will walk you through the process step-by-step, including preparation, hunting, and crafting.\n\nFirst, you need to unlock the Legendary Animal hunting mechanic. This becomes available after completing Chapter 2 and the mission ''Exit Pursued by a Bruised Ego,'' where Hosea introduces you to hunting legendary animals. Once unlocked, you can track and hunt the Legendary Ram, which is located in the Cattail Pond region of West Elizabeth, northwest of Valentine. Look for the ram icon on your map to identify its exact location.\n\nBefore heading out, prepare adequately. Equip yourself with a high-powered rifle, such as the Rolling Block Rifle or Carcano Rifle, to ensure a clean kill. The Legendary Ram is a tough animal, and using weaker weapons may result in a damaged pelt. Additionally, stock up on health tonics, stamina tonics, and predator bait to make the hunt easier. Wear warm clothing, as the Cattail Pond area can be cold, especially at night.\n\nWhen you arrive at the location, use Eagle Eye to track the Legendary Ram. Look for golden clues, such as fur, droppings, or scratches on trees, which will lead you to the animal. Be patient, as the ram may not appear immediately. If you''re having trouble finding it, try setting up predator bait near the pond or using cover scent lotion to mask your presence.\n\nOnce you spot the Legendary Ram, aim for a clean headshot to avoid damaging the pelt. A single well-placed shot should bring it down. After the kill, skin the ram to collect the Legendary Ram Pelt and the Rare Legendary Ram Horn. Be cautious, as predators like wolves or cougars may be attracted to the carcass. Store the pelt on your horse and take it to the Trapper to craft unique clothing items.\n\nThe Rare Legendary Ram Horn is used to craft the Ram Horn Trinket at the Fence. This trinket increases the quality of pelts you collect, making it easier to obtain perfect pelts from animals. To craft it, visit any Fence location, such as the one in Emerald Ranch or Saint Denis, and select the trinket under the crafting menu. You will need the horn, $45, and one piece of jewelry, which can be looted from enemies or found in treasure chests.\n\nCommon challenges during this hunt include losing track of the ram or being attacked by predators. To avoid losing the ram, stay focused on the golden clues and use Eagle Eye frequently. If predators attack, use Dead Eye to quickly eliminate them. Additionally, save your game before starting the hunt to avoid losing progress if something goes wrong.\n\nIn summary, acquiring the Rare Legendary Ram Horn involves hunting the Legendary Ram near Cattail Pond, preparing with the right weapons and supplies, and crafting the Ram Horn Trinket at the Fence. This item is invaluable for improving your hunting efficiency and is a must-have for completionists and serious hunters alike.
