Red Dead Redemption Multiplayer Tips, Leveling On Easy-Mode

You may find that leveling up in multiplayer games can be time consuming/tedious, so here are some red dead redemption multiplayer tips to go about leveling up, the easy way.

Now, there are 7 Gang hideouts in Red Dead Redemption. Visiting them can net you a decent amount of XP. (By visiting I don’t mean having a tea party and singing songs while sitting around the fire. I mean going there and shooting stuff up!)

Here is a list of the hideouts, along with the maximum XP in which can be obtained by visiting them. In this list, the hideouts are listed from highest to lowest XP obtained, along with what weapons can be found (if applicable):

Pike’s Basin: 2200 XP, Weapon: Evans Repeater

Gaptooth Breach: 1655 XP

Fort Mercer: 1489 XP, Weapon: Le Mat Revolver

Tumble Weed: 1424 XP, Weapon: Bolt Action Rifle

Tesoro Azul: 1096 XP, Weapon: High Power Pistol

Nosalida: 708 XP, Weapon: Carcano Rifle

Twin Rocks: 500 XP, Weapon: Mauser Pistol

Here are some other general Red Dead Redemption Multiplayer Tips, provided by Convivium from NextGenUpdate:

*Weapons earned by XP are added to your Free Roam loadout and persist across play sessions.
*In Free Roam, weapons you’ve collected while you are alive are still in your inventory when you respawn.
*In Free Roam, voice chat is limited to those around you.
*Rack up massive experience by chaining together NPC kills.
*Starting a game type via a gateway will invite everyone in your Free Roam session to join you.
*Transporter gateways are conveniently located in most major towns.
*Lawmen are not as lenient as they are in Single player. There are no witnesses, just justice.
*Complete Weapon Challenges to earn golden weaponry.
*Press and hold D-pad Up to broadcast your voice to everyone in the session.
*Stay on trails while on horseback to travel faster.
*Each map has different weapon pickups. Be sure to use them to complete weapon challenges.
*Hang back and be methodical- just running out into the open will get you killed.
*Try attacking well defended enemies from different directions.
*The straight in approach is almost never the best tactic.
*Be sure to collect ammo multiple times from a single ammo box so you don’t run out.
*Dead Eye increases accuracy, as well as, distance.
*While fighting in enclosed spaces, be sure to use dynamite and fire bottle to help clear hallways and rooms before entering.
*For enemies on Gatling guns, aim above the head or below the turret at their legs to bring them down.
*Having trouble with enemies staying behind cover? You can draw their fire by running out in the open, giving your team the open shots they need.
*Flanking is your friend. If you notice a enemy is particularly interested in you, draw his interest so a teammate can line up a better shot.
*Enemies do throw dynamite, split up and keep your eyes on the sky. Since dynamite is thrown with a high arc, you may be able to spot the enemy.
*You can use explosive crates and barrels against the enemy. However, sometimes it’s a better idea to destroy them beforehand, just in case you’re standing by one.
*Having a hard time seeing enemies in dense brush? Look for muzzle flashes and puffs of smoke to help you take aim on your targets.
*Cavalry on horseback can be hard to bring down. It may be easier to take down the horse first, allowing you to target the rider more easily.
*Always fall back behind cover to recoup health.
