Where can I find the Legendary Buck for crafting outfits?

The Legendary Buck is one of the most sought-after animals in Red Dead Redemption 2, primarily because its pelt and antlers are essential for crafting some of the best outfits and trinkets in the game. To find and hunt the Legendary Buck, you need to follow a series of steps, starting with unlocking the Legendary Animal map. This map becomes available after completing Chapter 1 and the mission ''Eastward Bound,'' which introduces you to the open world. Once unlocked, you can access the map by pressing the left D-pad button (on consoles) or the appropriate key on PC.\n\nTo locate the Legendary Buck, head to the area west of Strawberry in Big Valley, near the border of West Elizabeth and Ambarino. The exact location is marked by a buck icon on your map. When you arrive, use Eagle Eye (R3 on PlayStation, RS on Xbox) to track the animal. Look for golden clues, such as droppings, fur, or broken branches, which will guide you to the Buck. Be patient, as the Legendary Buck is elusive and may require multiple attempts to track.\n\nOnce you locate the Buck, approach it carefully. Legendary Animals are more aggressive and alert than regular animals, so stealth is key. Equip a rifle with high damage, such as the Rolling Block Rifle or Carcano Rifle, to ensure a clean kill. Aim for the head or heart to avoid damaging the pelt. If the Buck detects you, it will flee, so be prepared to chase it on horseback. Use Dead Eye to slow time and land a precise shot.\n\nAfter successfully hunting the Legendary Buck, skin it to obtain the Legendary Buck Pelt and Legendary Buck Antlers. These items are crucial for crafting the Legendary Buck Vest and the Buck Antler Trinket. To craft the vest, visit a Trapper, who can be found in various locations such as Saint Denis, Riggs Station, or near Strawberry. The Buck Antler Trinket, which improves the quality of pelts you collect, can be crafted at a Fence. Both items require additional materials, so ensure you have enough cash and resources before visiting these vendors.\n\nOne common challenge players face is losing the Legendary Buck Pelt if they die or fast travel before delivering it to the Trapper. To avoid this, always store the pelt on your horse immediately after skinning the animal. If you lose the pelt, it will automatically be sent to the Trapper, but you won''t be able to sell it for money. Another tip is to save your game before hunting the Buck, as this allows you to reload if something goes wrong.\n\nIn summary, the Legendary Buck is located west of Strawberry in Big Valley. Use Eagle Eye to track it, a high-damage rifle to kill it, and deliver the pelt to the Trapper for crafting. Be cautious of losing the pelt and save your game before the hunt. With these steps, you''ll be able to craft some of the best outfits and trinkets in Red Dead Redemption 2.
