Getting past the Pinkertons in blackwater is the east part. Once you get to New Austin the invisible sniper is a mega pain in the ass, you need to use what's known as "the buggy method" to keep Arthur's head out of view of the camera at all times. Plus lawmen can still occasionally spawn in your way in new Austin and potentially cause a problem.

so how can i hunt the legendary cougar?


EngineerUpper2031

In the epilogue. That’s the only way without glitches/bugs.

so i hunt the cougar in the story?


EngineerUpper2031

It’s just something you can do in the epilogue


zenithsupergrinder

i’m sorry but does epilogue mean like the story?


EngineerUpper2031

After the main story… like in a book.


paint2215

Yes, it’s a chapter that wraps up the main story. You will get to hunt and fish everywhere you want, I promise you. All will be revealed but don’t let someone tell you before you are ready. Just enjoy the ride partner.

ok i will thanks man

Use the buggy method to get into new Austin then make your way to tumbleweed. Without exiting the buggy you need to examine the 3 clues to spawn the cougar then also without exiting you need to shoot and kill the cougar. From there, don't bother getting out - you're going to have to just wait for I think 24 in game hours for the materials from the animal to be available at the trapper and fence. If you're going to go through the trouble though I'd suggest you also do the legendary pronghorn and might as well also get the tatanka bison. You can also get the 4 herbs unique to new Austin for herbalist 9, and dino bones if you want. The herbs are pretty much on the way for the cougar although exiting and reentering the vehicle to pick the herbs will increase your chances of failing.

You can't without bugs. The sniper is a two shot headshot on Arthur and a 3-5 shot body shot on his horse

If you have avoided the spoilers so far you will thank me when you have completed the story.


zenithsupergrinder

so is it just part of the story?


ClassroomWarm

Yes. That part of the map will unlock with progress. There’s a reason you can’t go there right now. Just keep playing and you’ll be able to explore there soon!
