How do I unlock the Legend of the East Satchel for more inventory space?

The Legend of the East Satchel is the ultimate inventory upgrade in Red Dead Redemption 2, allowing you to carry 99 of each item. To unlock it, you must craft all other satchels at Pearson''s crafting station in camp. This requires hunting specific animals and gathering their perfect pelts, which can be a challenging but rewarding process.\n\nFirst, you need to unlock the Leather Working Tools from Pearson. This costs $225 and becomes available after completing the mission ''Polite Society, Valentine Style'' in Chapter 2. Once you have the tools, Pearson can craft satchels, but you must provide the required materials. Each satchel requires perfect pelts from specific animals, so you''ll need to hunt carefully.\n\nTo craft the Legend of the East Satchel, you must first craft the other six satchels: Ingredients Satchel, Tonics Satchel, Kit Satchel, Provisions Satchel, Materials Satchel, and Valuables Satchel. Each satchel requires perfect pelts from different animals. For example, the Ingredients Satchel needs a perfect deer pelt, while the Valuables Satchel requires a perfect badger pelt. Use the Varmint Rifle or Bow with Small Game Arrows for smaller animals to ensure perfect pelts.\n\nHunting for perfect pelts can be tricky. Always aim for a clean kill by targeting the animal''s vital organs with the appropriate weapon. Use Dead Eye to improve accuracy. For larger animals like deer or elk, the Springfield Rifle or Bolt Action Rifle works best. For smaller animals like rabbits or raccoons, the Varmint Rifle is ideal. Study animals with your binoculars to determine their quality before hunting.\n\nSome animals are harder to find than others. For example, the perfect badger pelt required for the Valuables Satchel can be found near Bolger Glade or the Heartlands. Be patient and use bait or predator calls to lure animals out. If you''re struggling to find a specific animal, consult the in-game compendium or online guides for spawn locations.\n\nOnce you''ve gathered all the required pelts, return to Pearson at camp. Access the crafting menu at his station and select the satchel you want to craft. After crafting all six satchels, the Legend of the East Satchel will become available. Crafting it requires one perfect panther pelt, which is one of the most challenging pelts to obtain. Panthers are found in the forests south of Braithwaite Manor, but they are aggressive and dangerous. Use a powerful rifle and Dead Eye to take them down.\n\nFinally, equip the Legend of the East Satchel from your inventory to enjoy its benefits. This satchel significantly increases your carrying capacity, making it easier to stock up on supplies for long journeys. It''s especially useful for players who enjoy exploring and completing side missions.\n\nPractical tips: Always save your game before hunting rare animals like panthers. If you fail to get a perfect pelt, reload your save to try again. Use the Legendary Buck Trinket to improve the quality of pelts you obtain. This trinket is crafted by selling the Legendary Buck pelt to a Fence. Lastly, upgrade your camp''s provisions to unlock fast travel, making it easier to return to Pearson with your pelts.
