How do I complete the Bandit Challenge 7 without getting a bounty?

Completing Bandit Challenge 7 in Red Dead Redemption 2 requires you to rob $50 from townsfolk without getting a bounty. This can be tricky, as robbing people in towns often leads to witnesses reporting your crimes. However, with careful planning and understanding of game mechanics, you can complete this challenge efficiently.\n\nFirst, choose a location with fewer witnesses and law enforcement presence. Smaller towns like Van Horn or Butcher Creek are ideal because they have fewer NPCs and less police activity. Avoid larger towns like Saint Denis or Valentine, as they are heavily patrolled and have many witnesses. Van Horn is particularly useful because it has no law enforcement, meaning you won’t get a bounty even if someone reports you.\n\nNext, equip a bandana or mask to conceal your identity. While this won’t prevent witnesses from reporting the crime, it will delay law enforcement from identifying you. Make sure to wear clothing that doesn’t stand out, as this can help you blend in and avoid drawing attention. Additionally, avoid using your horse during the robberies, as it can be identified and linked to you.\n\nTo rob someone, approach them on foot and aim your weapon at them. Press the appropriate button to initiate the robbery (Triangle on PlayStation, Y on Xbox). Demand money, and they will usually hand over a small amount. Repeat this process until you’ve collected $50. Be mindful of your surroundings and avoid robbing people near groups or in open areas where others can see you.\n\nIf a witness does spot you, you can try to intimidate them by aiming your weapon and threatening them to stop reporting the crime. However, this doesn’t always work, so it’s best to avoid witnesses altogether. If you do get a bounty, you can pay it off at a post office or surrender to the law, but this defeats the purpose of the challenge.\n\nA practical example is to focus on isolated individuals in Van Horn. Walk around the town and look for NPCs who are alone or in less crowded areas. Rob them one by one, and quickly move to another part of town to avoid drawing attention. If you’re careful, you can complete the challenge without anyone reporting you.\n\nFinally, remember that patience is key. Take your time to scout the area and plan your robberies. Rushing increases the risk of being seen and reported. By following these steps and using the right locations, you can complete Bandit Challenge 7 without getting a bounty and progress further in the game.
