How do I unlock the Legend of the East satchel?

The Legend of the East satchel is one of the most valuable items in Red Dead Redemption 2, offering 99 slots for every category of items, making inventory management significantly easier. To unlock it, you must craft all other satchels available in the game, which requires gathering specific materials and completing the associated challenges. This process is tied to the Camp Upgrades system and involves working with Pearson, the camp''s cook, at your gang''s main camp.\n\nTo begin, you must first unlock the Leather Working Tools from Pearson. These tools cost $225 and are essential for crafting satchels. Once purchased, Pearson will allow you to craft satchels at his workstation. You can find Pearson at the campfire near the chuckwagon in your gang''s camp. Interact with him and select the ''Craft'' option to view the list of satchels you can create.\n\nThere are seven satchels in total, including the Legend of the East satchel. Each satchel requires specific animal pelts and other materials. For example, the Kit Satchel requires one perfect deer pelt and one perfect rabbit pelt, while the Tonics Satchel requires one perfect buck pelt and one perfect elk pelt. To obtain perfect pelts, you must hunt animals and ensure you kill them with a clean shot using the appropriate weapon. For deer and bucks, use a rifle with a headshot, and for smaller animals like rabbits, use a varmint rifle.\n\nOne of the most challenging satchels to craft is the Ingredients Satchel, which requires a perfect badger pelt. Badgers are small, elusive, and often found in wooded areas like Big Valley or near Rhodes. Use a varmint rifle and aim for a clean headshot to secure a perfect pelt. Another tricky material is the perfect panther pelt, required for the Legend of the East satchel. Panthers are rare and dangerous, found primarily in the forests south of Braithwaite Manor. Use a rifle with express ammo and Dead Eye to take them down safely.\n\nOnce you have crafted all six satchels (Kit, Tonics, Ingredients, Valuables, Provisions, and Materials), the Legend of the East satchel will become available. This satchel requires one perfect panther pelt, one perfect wolf pelt, and one perfect cougar pelt, along with $22.50. Cougars are found in the forests of Roanoke Ridge, while wolves are more common in the Grizzlies or near Cumberland Forest. Use a rifle or bow with improved arrows for clean kills.\n\nA common challenge players face is locating specific animals or obtaining perfect pelts. To improve your chances, use bait like herbivore or predator bait to lure animals out. Additionally, invest in the Buck Antler Trinket, which increases the chances of obtaining perfect pelts. This trinket is crafted by bringing a perfect buck pelt and a legendary buck antler to a Fence.\n\nFinally, prioritize upgrading your satchels early in the game. The Legend of the East satchel is a game-changer, allowing you to carry more items and reducing the need for frequent inventory management. Focus on hunting during free roam and use the Companion App or online maps to track animal spawn locations. With patience and persistence, you''ll unlock the Legend of the East satchel and enjoy its benefits throughout your journey.
