The Provisions Satchel in Red Dead Redemption 2 increases the amount of food and provisions Arthur can carry, making it useful for longer trips away from camp.
To upgrade the Provisions Satchel in RDR2, you’ll need to unlock Pearson’s Leather Working Tools and collect a Perfect Deer Pelt, Perfect Bison Pelt and Perfect Raccoon Pelt.
Here’s how to unlock the upgrade and find everything you need.
Unlock Requirements
Firstly, you’ll need to complete the requirements below:
- Leather Working Tools
- Upgrade Provisions Wagon Twice
Fulfill the two requirements by accessing the Camp Upgrades through Ledger. Purchase the upgrades mentioned above.
What Do You Need
Like all satchels in RDR2, you’re going to need a couple of perfect pelts to craft said satchel upgrades.
To find out what you need to craft the upgrade, visit Mr. Pearson, The Cook of the camp and select the Crafting Upgrades option.
So, we’ve identified what sort of pelts we’ll be needing for the Provisions Satchel upgrade. The pelts are:
- 1 x Perfect Deer Pelt
- 1 x Perfect Bison Pelt
- 1 x Perfect Raccoon Pelt
This satchel upgrade requires you to cover a larger area of the map to find these animals in their natural habitat. However, it’s not hard to fulfill the task of finding the required pelts.
Where to Find Deer in RDR2
Generally, you can find deer scattered across the map. However, if you’re looking for specific locations for deer and a higher chances of encountering them, you can head over to the Animal Compendium and check out their location. Remember to always check the quality of their pelt before taking your shot.
Where to Find Raccoon in RDR2
Similarly, the racoon can be found widely roaming in the map. If you’re having a hard time locating one, refer to the Animal Compendium to get a much accurate location. Before shooting, check if raccoon has a three-star quality.
Where to Find Bison in RDR2
According to the Animal Compendium, Bison are native to the plains of New Hanover and West Elizabeth. Quickly pull out your map and look for the bison symbol:
If you’re still having trouble looking for bison herds, which apparently is a problem for a lot of RDR2 players, you can check out either Twin Stack Pass or Heartland Overflow. Your best bet is to check out Heartland Overflow. Use your binoculars to help spot them as the area is quite big.
Once you’ve come across a herd of bison, use your scope to survey which one has the perfect pelt. Then, choose your mark and make sure you have the kill shot. Remember, use Dead Eye for guaranteed success. Check out this detailed guide on how to get a perfect bison pelt.
Craft the Provisions Satchel at Pearson’s Wagon
Finally, head back to Mr. Pearson, and select the Provisions Satchel in the Crafting Upgrades menu. Check if all the pelts are there. Remember to Donate them first before going into the Crafting Upgrades menu.
Craft and voila! You’re now rocking an upgraded version of the Provisions Satchel. Double the amount of provisions you can carry with you and never worry about never having enough food, ever!
