How do you unlock the Horse Reviver recipe at the Fence?

To unlock the Horse Reviver recipe at the Fence in Red Dead Redemption 2, you must first progress through the game''s story and meet specific requirements. The Horse Reviver is a crucial item for any player who wants to keep their horse alive during intense battles or accidents. Without it, your horse can die permanently, which can be devastating if you''ve invested time and money into bonding with it. The Fence is a special vendor who sells unique items and recipes, but you must unlock their services first.\n\nTo unlock the Fence, you need to complete the mission ''The Spines of America'' in Chapter 2. This mission is given by Hosea Matthews, one of the members of the Van der Linde gang. During this mission, Hosea will introduce you to the Fence in Emerald Ranch. After completing the mission, the Fence will become available for business, allowing you to purchase recipes, including the Horse Reviver recipe.\n\nOnce the Fence is unlocked, you can visit any Fence location, such as Emerald Ranch, Rhodes, or Saint Denis. The Horse Reviver recipe costs $35, which is a reasonable price considering its importance. To purchase the recipe, interact with the Fence and navigate to the ''Recipes & Pamphlets'' section. Scroll through the list until you find the Horse Reviver recipe, then purchase it. After buying the recipe, it will be added to your inventory, and you can craft Horse Reviver at any time.\n\nCrafting Horse Reviver requires specific ingredients: one Ginseng and one Yarrow. Ginseng can be found in the forests of Ambarino and the Heartlands, while Yarrow is commonly found in grassy areas like the Great Plains and Lemoyne. Both plants are relatively easy to locate if you know where to look. Once you have the ingredients, open your Satchel, go to the ''Crafting'' tab, and select the Horse Reviver recipe to craft it.\n\nA common challenge players face is running out of Horse Reviver during critical moments. To avoid this, always carry at least two or three Horse Revivers in your inventory. Additionally, stock up on Ginseng and Yarrow whenever you come across them during your travels. This ensures you can craft more Horse Reviver on the go if needed. Another tip is to use the Eagle Eye ability to spot plants more easily, as it highlights them in the environment.\n\nFor new players, it''s important to prioritize unlocking the Fence early in the game. This not only gives you access to the Horse Reviver recipe but also other useful items like improved weapon parts and trinkets. Experienced players should consider setting up a routine to gather Ginseng and Yarrow regularly, especially if they frequently engage in combat or exploration. By following these steps and tips, you can ensure your horse stays healthy and ready for any adventure in Red Dead Redemption 2.
