PRO-STRATEGIES

The Fastest Farming Methods Detailed

1.

The $21.00 Camp Donation Trick

Donating to the Van der Linde gang\'s tithing box grants a massive **+10 points** per transactionโ€”the single highest ambient gain. However, **do not donate all your money at once**. The honor points do not scale up indefinitely with larger amounts.

How to do it: Donate exactly **$21.00**. Donating $20.00 or less triggers a normal chime. Donating over $20.00 triggers a larger chime indicating max honor points. Donate $21.00, exit the box menu, wait a brief moment for the icon to clear, then donate $21.00 again!

2.

Catch & Release Lagras Fishing

Every single fish caught and immediately thrown back into the water grants Arthur Morgan a boost of **+1 honor point** (along with a maximum health improvement).

How to do it: Do not hunt Legendary or massive 20lb fish. A massive catfish takes several minutes of tedious fighting but yields the exact same +1 honor point as a tiny 1lb fish. Go to the swamps of Lagras, use bread baits, hook small mackerel or bluegills, and repeatedly throw them back in seconds!

3.

The Saint Denis Greeting Grind

Greeting citizens on the street slowly builds Arthur\'s honor points. Specifically, **every 3 unique people greeted** yields **+1 honor point**.

How to do it: Go to the highly populated streets of Saint Denis. Ride your horse at a slow trot or hop onto the trolley. Lock onto every stranger you pass (men, women, beggars, stray cats, and dogs) and repeatedly tap the "Greet" prompt. You can easily pass 50 people a minute, gaining levels rapidly!

4.

Camp Chores, Disarming & Strangers

Completing manual chores in camp (chopping firewood, hauling grain, moving hay) awards **+4 points** each and can be repeated daily.

How to do it: Always disarm opponents in forced duels (gain **+10 points** by shooting their hand rather than their head). Always stop for white-blip random stranger encounters on your mapโ€”they take seconds but grant immense moral points.
