Red Dead Online is not a simple game and earning Experience Points could prove to be quite a challenge for some. We therefore propose the best way (so far) to earn a lot of XP, without excessive effort. You will have to make some preparations, sure, but nothing too expensive.

Let's see immediately what are the prerequisites to be able to approach this tactic:
- You must have completed the mission "Kill them all, from first to last".
- A two-person Posse: Three or four people can use this method, but the more people there, the less XP you earn; two is the perfect number, then.
- Your teammates must have completed at least the first online mission.
- Special Bullets: Special Bullet kills grant more experience.
When you have everything you need, you need to create the gang and select the mission from the progress menu: the exact moment you enter the lobby, you have to exit. If you don't, you will be forced to team up with random players.
After exiting the lobby, a yellow marker will appear in New Austin, showing you the mission. Join it with your partner to start it. It is important not to matchmaking, but to select "Start Mission".

Your goal is not to complete the mission, but to execute kills: they are the ones that will give you experience points. Then take out the enemies inside the fort. But you have to avoid the ones in the final section so as not to start the fight with the boss. At that point, all you have to do is get filled with lead. After dying enough times, you can repeat the entire mission instead of starting from the checkpoint. Each time you reload, the mission will give you back 50 special bullets
As already mentioned, kills with special bullets are worth more points, also, if you succeed, make kills in execution, so as to earn a good 30 XP. Another benefit of this mission is that it makes you wear armor: you will be very resistant and you will be able to try a more aggressive approach. So try to perform as many eliminations as possible: dying is secondary, since you will still have to start again at some point.
