How do I find the Legendary Fox in RDR2?
The Legendary Fox in Red Dead Redemption 2 is one of the many legendary animals you can hunt for rare pelts and crafting materials. To find and hunt the Legendary Fox, you need to follow specific steps and understand the game mechanics involved in tracking and hunting legendary animals. This guide will walk you through the process, including location, preparation, and strategies to successfully hunt the Legendary Fox.\n\nFirst, you need to unlock the ability to hunt legendary animals. This is done by completing the mission ''Exit Pursued by a Bruised Ego'' in Chapter 2, where Hosea introduces you to hunting and gives you the Legendary Animal Map. Once you have the map, you can start tracking legendary animals, including the Legendary Fox. The Legendary Fox is located in the Scarlett Meadows region of Lemoyne, specifically near the town of Rhodes. Look for its icon on the map, which resembles a fox head with a crown.\n\nBefore heading out to hunt the Legendary Fox, ensure you are well-prepared. Equip yourself with a powerful rifle or bow, as these weapons are ideal for taking down legendary animals without damaging their pelts. The Rolling Block Rifle or the Carcano Rifle are excellent choices. Additionally, stock up on health tonics, stamina tonics, and predator bait to increase your chances of success. Wear appropriate clothing for the weather, as the Lemoyne region can be hot and humid.\n\nWhen you arrive at the location marked on the map, use Eagle Eye to search for clues. The Legendary Fox will leave three clues in the area, such as tracks, fur, or droppings. Follow these clues carefully, as they will lead you closer to the animal. Be cautious, as the Legendary Fox is fast and can easily escape if it detects you. Move slowly and stay downwind to avoid alerting it. If you lose track of the clues, use Eagle Eye again to reorient yourself.\n\nOnce you locate the Legendary Fox, approach it quietly and take your shot. Aim for a clean kill by targeting the head or heart to preserve the quality of the pelt. If the fox detects you, it will flee, and you may need to chase it down. Use Dead Eye to slow time and ensure an accurate shot. After successfully hunting the fox, skin it to collect the Legendary Fox Pelt and Legendary Fox Claw. These items can be sold to a Trapper or used for crafting unique items.\n\nCommon challenges when hunting the Legendary Fox include losing track of the clues or spooking the animal. To avoid these issues, always use Eagle Eye to stay on the trail and move cautiously. If the fox escapes, leave the area and return later, as legendary animals respawn after a short time. Additionally, avoid using explosives or low-quality weapons, as these can ruin the pelt and reduce its value.\n\nIn summary, hunting the Legendary Fox requires preparation, patience, and precision. Equip yourself with the right weapons, follow the clues carefully, and take your shot when the opportunity arises. By following these steps, you can successfully hunt the Legendary Fox and collect its valuable materials for crafting or selling. Happy hunting!
