Red Dead Online’s second heist dropped two days ago, on Tuesday. We’ve broken down the official Rockstar Newswire post here.
Ember of the East Heist
Let’s begin with the premise of the heist:
“Sources hear tell of a beguiling, flawless ruby known as The Ember of The East, tucked away for safe keeping somewhere in Annesburg. Rumors are aswirl that tensions are high between the Senator’s liaison and the foreman of the local mine. Keeping your cool may help reveal additional information, though you’re free to approach and engage as you see fit.”
Finding the Ember and successfully submitting it to your employers by August 2, you’ll get a variety of rewards. One of these is a free Off-Hand Holster. Finishing it on Ruthless difficulty will unlock the Annesburg Cap from Madam Nazar.
Crime Contract, New Weapons, Discounts
A new crime contract, called “The Dockside Contract” has also arrived. It contains three new missions from your local Blood Money contact. They involve tying up loose ends at a local shipping business in Saint Denis.
Additionally, a new variant of the Cattleman Revolver has come in with this wave of content. The Whitchurch Cattleman Revolver Variant, alongside 25 ranks of other rewards can be unlocked. This requires progressing through The Quick Draw Club No. 1. Once you purchase this, all items up to your current Wheeler, Rawson & Co. Club Rank will instantly unlock. If you purchase all four installments of the Quick Draw Club, you will get a reward for the Halloween Pass 2 for free.
Lastly, Camp Setup Fees are also waived this week. This allows players to pack up and move around their camp at no cost. There are also various discounts, such as 40% off all Non-Standard (Non-Role) Outfits. Gunsmiths are also offering 30% off all Repeaters.
