How do I unlock the "A Better World, A New Friend" trophy by completing all camp upgrades?
To unlock the ''A Better World, A New Friend'' trophy in Red Dead Redemption 2, you must complete all camp upgrades available in the game. This achievement requires you to contribute to and improve the living conditions of your gang''s camp by purchasing and installing various upgrades. These upgrades are divided into categories such as Lodging, Provisions, and Miscellaneous, and each requires specific materials, money, and sometimes unique items.\n\nFirst, you need to unlock the Ledger, which is the in-game system used to purchase camp upgrades. The Ledger becomes available after completing the mission ''Money Lending and Other Sins II'' in Chapter 2. Once unlocked, you can access the Ledger by interacting with the donation box near Dutch''s tent. From here, you can view and purchase upgrades for the camp. Each upgrade has a cost, and some require specific materials like animal pelts or herbs.\n\nTo complete all upgrades, you will need a significant amount of money. Early in the game, focus on earning cash by completing missions, hunting, and looting enemies. Selling valuables to fences or completing treasure hunts can also provide a quick influx of funds. For example, the ''Jack Hall Gang Treasure Map'' and ''High Stakes Treasure Map'' quests can yield thousands of dollars if completed early.\n\nSome upgrades require specific animal pelts or plants. For instance, the ''Deer Antler Trinket'' upgrade requires a perfect deer pelt, which can be obtained by hunting deer with a rifle or bow using a clean headshot. To ensure you get perfect pelts, study animals with your binoculars to determine their quality and use the appropriate weapon. Legendary animals, which always yield perfect pelts, are another excellent source for rare materials.\n\nOne of the most challenging upgrades is the ''Chicken Coop,'' which requires a perfect chicken carcass. Chickens are commonly found in towns like Valentine or Rhodes, but killing them in plain sight will alert the law. To avoid trouble, use a bow with small game arrows or wait until nightfall to stealthily take down a chicken. Similarly, the ''Medicine Wagon'' upgrade requires specific herbs like Yarrow and Ginseng, which can be found in the wild or purchased from herbalists.\n\nA common challenge players face is gathering enough funds for the more expensive upgrades, such as the ''Leather Working Tools'' or ''Dutch''s Lodging.'' To save money, prioritize hunting and gathering materials yourself instead of purchasing them from the Ledger. Additionally, avoid spending money on unnecessary items like clothing or weapons until all camp upgrades are complete.\n\nFinally, ensure you complete all upgrades before the end of Chapter 6, as the camp becomes unavailable afterward. Keep track of your progress by regularly checking the Ledger and consulting the camp upgrade menu. Once all upgrades are purchased and installed, the ''A Better World, A New Friend'' trophy will unlock.\n\nPractical tips: Always carry a bow and rifle for hunting, study animals before killing them, and save your game frequently to avoid losing progress. Use the in-game map to locate herbs and animals efficiently, and consider using online guides for specific material locations. With patience and careful planning, this trophy is entirely achievable.
