pete_95973 4,380 Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 (edited) Mostly combat jobs and races. Done a few missions. Some pay okay. $15 for a most wanted win that only took five to seven minutes was my most efficient moment so far! But winning is tough I have only won once out of five or 6 matches. If you win a race you get some decent money and the only take three or four minutes. Did unlock a treasure map that I will check out next. I am curious if hunting will be profitable. @The_Lady_A and @Sinister made some positive comments about it in the shoutbox. Definitely worth exploring.

Wulfherth 100 Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 Hunting deer and selling the carcasses for 10$. Also the livestock in towns. Easy to go back and forth from the butcher to sell. Carcasses sell more than individual pelts. Also when i can get the fishing rod i am going to fish in flat iron lake for steelhead, they sell for 4$ a pop, and you can carry 10. Will buy the lake lure for 1 gold bar to skip rank req. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banketelli 3,655 Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 Hunting, combat jobs and story missions. They pay better and better. I'm at 75% and the last mission paid more than $200. Of course, only the first time. Replayed it and got 6 bucks. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete_95973 4,380 Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 $10 for one deer carcass!? I need to get huntin! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wulfherth 100 Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 (edited) 7$ for good quality and 10$ for perfect. Skin what you can't carry like the small animals. I suggest stealing a horse and using that to carry more hides and one more carcass! Ride the stolen horse though so you can whistle for your active horse to follow.

BlackRabbit 130 Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 Been mainly doing combat missions for money. Good time, $5-12 per round + gold nuggets. Keep trying to hunt but I keep screwing up my kills (ugg). I need a bow for them deer. ....and is it bad that I don't know how to fish? Never got there in story mode (last month was super busy). Any tips (like, teach me like a noob) would be greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Lady_A 1,280 Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 Hunting isn't that time efficient really, I do suspect that grinding the jobs will be a more effective way to do it. Hunting also doesn't give you gold at all, and pretty much everything that I want to buy costs gold instead. The varment rifle is a hunting must have though as it'll preserve smaller things and birds much better while also being much better at shooting multiple creatures in short succession like flocks of birds. @BlackRabbit best way to hunt perfect deer/boar/rams is to ride them down with a lasso tbh. Unless you're the Predator I mean. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete_95973 4,380 Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 From Reddit: Money making tip: go to the ranch north of rhoades. Get close to the bull, lasso it, and press circle/b to easily kill it without ruining the pelt. Usually has a perfect pelt. Sell the pelt, meat, horns at the Rhoades butcher. Rinse and repeat. Also make sure to grab the pelts of any animals you find during your route. This can also be done with the cows at the ranch, but killing them lowers your honor. Killing the bull seems to have no honor problem. While I would sometimes get caught by the farmer while doing this in story mode, I haven’t yet seen the farmer npc in online. Edit: it’s Hill Haven Ranch. Since this kill only requires a knife and lasso, it won’t cost you any ammo. Edit: I said I’m making $10 per trip in some comments. That does not mean you’ll get $10 for the pelt. Sell the meat and horns as well. Also, if you see any low effort money sources along your route, grab them to maximize your money on each trip. Kill any boar or deer that you don’t have to chase too far. Hogtie any lone pedestrians to rob (you’ll also pass the fence on your way back). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wulfherth 100 Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 (edited) I need to find a nice peaceful lobby to do this in lol. Do you have to change sessions to get the bull to spawn again?

The_Lady_A 1,280 Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Flocks of birds, especially the ones mentioned ⬆️, are a good way to do it too. Everything stays in your satchel so you don't need to relay back and forth to your horse. I find doing small animal/bird hunting while travelling across the map is a good way of gradually building cash without it ever feeling like grinding. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instantly closing application wasn't enough to save it either. So I'm sending a furious little ticket to R* as they were never lost in story mode and there was no indication they could be here, but in the meantime be very careful if you spend gold on it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to know. How much gold is required to buy a lure. I want one but am also saving cash for my next gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sinister 2,578 Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 So you just use Gold to "unlock" an item for purchase. Then you have to use more Gold if you want another one? Wow.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidCore89 7,402 Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Lures aren't the best for smaller fish, regular baits catch them within seconds. Got a load of small fish in the satchel, hopefully worth more than 1 large fish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALL farm animals! There is an achievement for going fully outlaw! Missions will correct the honor, once you have the achievement. I've made big hauls with fully maxed meat, skins and feathers at Emerald Ranch that were almost $50. Start at around 9PM, as soon as farm hands leave. Kill and skin all the animals, go a little distance away and the animals re-spawn. You have until dawn. Hunt deer on the way to butcher in Rhodes. 1 Quote I only grow in living soil!

shortround 1,160 Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 Just explore and hunt, fuck the grind... I think GTA has set us in a mindset where we think we have to just grind for cash. We don't need that much at the mo, just enough for the right tools and ammo. Had a great time tonight up in the snow just exploring, then, on the way back killed a load of animals that i just passed by and made about 30 bucks, that'll do me. ? 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
