Where can you find the Missouri Fox Trotter in the wild?
The Missouri Fox Trotter is one of the most sought-after horses in Red Dead Redemption 2 due to its excellent speed, stamina, and temperament. However, finding this horse in the wild can be challenging, as it is not a common spawn. The Missouri Fox Trotter is typically available for purchase in the later stages of the game, but there is a way to find it in the wild during specific missions.\n\nTo find the Missouri Fox Trotter in the wild, you must progress to Chapter 2 of the game and complete the mission ''Arcadia for Amateurs III'' with Albert Mason. During this mission, you will encounter a group of wild horses, including the Missouri Fox Trotter. The key is to track and tame the horse after the mission ends, as it will not be available during the mission itself.\n\nAfter completing the mission, immediately head to the area where the horses were last seen, near Moonstone Pond in the Grizzlies East region. The Missouri Fox Trotter will spawn in this area, but you must act quickly, as it may despawn if you take too long. Use your binoculars to locate the horse and approach it carefully to avoid spooking it. Once you are close enough, use the ''Calm'' button to soothe the horse and then attempt to mount it.\n\nTaming the Missouri Fox Trotter requires patience and skill. When you mount the horse, it will buck and try to throw you off. Hold the left stick down to maintain balance and repeatedly press the ''Calm'' button to soothe the horse. Once the horse stops bucking, you will have successfully tamed it. Be sure to bond with the horse by feeding, brushing, and patting it to increase your bond level and unlock its full potential.\n\nIf you miss the opportunity to tame the Missouri Fox Trotter during this mission, you can still purchase it later in the game from the Scarlet Meadows Stable in Lemoyne. However, this option becomes available only after completing Chapter 4. The wild method is ideal for players who want to acquire the horse early in the game without spending money.\n\nOne common challenge players face is losing track of the Missouri Fox Trotter after the mission. To avoid this, mark the location on your map and use Eagle Eye to track the horse''s trail. Additionally, ensure you have a good supply of horse reviver and stamina tonics, as the taming process can be physically demanding for both you and the horse.\n\nIn summary, the Missouri Fox Trotter can be found in the wild during the ''Arcadia for Amateurs III'' mission near Moonstone Pond. Act quickly, use stealth and patience to tame the horse, and bond with it to unlock its full potential. This method allows you to acquire one of the best horses in the game early on, giving you a significant advantage in both exploration and combat.
