How To Get To New Austin As Arthur Morgan |
The Law Abiding Route (Not Really)
Spoiler Alert: This one involves ignoring the giant invisible sniper guarding the border. There is no Law Abiding Route. Let's move on.
QuickTip: Look for patterns as you read.
The Bounty Hunter Hustle
This method is all about playing the system, well, sort of. Here's the gist:
- Nab yourself a bounty: Head to Valentine and snag a bounty from the sheriff's office. Aim for one down in New Austin, because why not?
- Hogtie and Hold: Instead of turning your bounty in, hogtie the poor fella and place them on your horse.
- New Austin, Here We Come!: With your "souvenir" in tow, gallop straight to New Austin. The bounty hunter in you might be screaming, but hey, gotta explore that desert, right?
Heads Up: This might not be the smoothest ride. Expect the law to be hot on your tail once you reach New Austin with your... "special guest".
QuickTip: Take a pause every few paragraphs.
The Scenic Wagon Ride (with a Few Bumps)
This method involves a trusty wagon and a healthy dose of "gee-up!". Here's the plan:
- Find yourself a Wagon: Any wagon will do, but a stagecoach might give you a bit more protection (from the elements, not the law).
- Full Speed Ahead!: Head straight for the border with New Austin. Aim for a natural gap, because those fancy new fences the law loves to put up won't be much help.
- Hold on Tight!: Once you breach the border, expect the law to materialize faster than a rattler in a boot. Get ready for a bumpy ride!
Pro-Tip: If your wagon gets a little worse for wear, don't fret! Just grab your trusty steed and hightail it outta there. Just remember, Arthur ain't exactly a marathon runner.
Note: Skipping ahead? Don’t miss the middle sections.
