Where can I find the Missouri Fox Trotter in the game?

The Missouri Fox Trotter is one of the best horses in Red Dead Redemption 2, known for its speed, stamina, and calm temperament. To find this horse, you need to know where to look and how to tame it. The Missouri Fox Trotter can be acquired in two main ways: through a specific mission or by finding it in the wild. This guide will cover both methods in detail, along with tips for taming and bonding with the horse.\n\nFirst, the Missouri Fox Trotter can be obtained during the mission ''Arcadia for Amateurs III,'' which becomes available in Chapter 4. During this mission, you will encounter a photographer named Albert Mason who is trying to photograph wild horses. One of these horses is the Missouri Fox Trotter. To secure the horse, you must follow the herd during the mission and carefully track the Fox Trotter. Once the mission ends, the horse will remain in the area, allowing you to tame it. Be patient and use calming techniques to approach the horse without spooking it.\n\nIf you miss the opportunity during the mission, you can still find the Missouri Fox Trotter in the wild. The horse spawns in specific locations, such as near Moonstone Pond in the Grizzlies East region or around the Heartlands. To increase your chances of finding it, visit these areas during clear weather and during the day. Use binoculars to scan the area for the horse, as it has a distinctive coat pattern. Once spotted, approach slowly while holding the ''Calm'' button to keep the horse from fleeing.\n\nTaming the Missouri Fox Trotter requires patience and skill. When you get close enough, press the ''Mount'' button to attempt to tame the horse. The horse will buck and try to throw you off, so you must balance Arthur by moving the left stick in the opposite direction of the horse''s movements. Keep calming the horse while maintaining your balance until it stops bucking. Once tamed, the horse will be yours to ride.\n\nBonding with the Missouri Fox Trotter is essential to unlock its full potential. Spend time grooming, feeding, and patting the horse to increase your bond level. Each bond level improves the horse''s stats, such as stamina and health, and unlocks new commands like rearing and drifting. Use high-quality horse care items, such as Hay and Carrots, to speed up the bonding process. Additionally, avoid running the horse into dangerous situations, as injuries can lower its trust in you.\n\nOne common challenge players face is the horse fleeing or becoming agitated during the taming process. To avoid this, ensure you approach the horse from the side or rear, as approaching head-on can startle it. If the horse does flee, track it using Eagle Eye and try again. Another tip is to save your game before attempting to tame the horse, so you can reload if something goes wrong.\n\nIn summary, the Missouri Fox Trotter is a valuable horse that can be found during a specific mission or in the wild. Use patience and skill to tame it, and invest time in bonding to maximize its abilities. With its speed and stamina, the Missouri Fox Trotter is an excellent companion for both new players and experienced gamers.
