Complete The Veteran missions in red dead redemption 2, including fishing with Hamish and hunting the Legendary Boar.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    The Veteran II: Travel to the Veteran’s Homestead east of O’Creagh’s Run. Join Hamish for a fishing trip. Row the boat to the designated spot and equip the Special Lake Lure. After Hamish falls into the lake, quickly help him up before he drowns. Row to the next spot and catch the fish yourself.
  2. 2
    The Veteran III: Wait another full day and return to Hamish. This time, he wants to go hunting. You can choose to track the Wolf or not. If you track it yourself, use Eagle Eye to spot tracks and control the pace. When you find the Wolf, prepare for a pack attack and dispatch them. Beware of the Alpha that attacks at the end.
  3. 3
    The Veteran IV: Wait another full day to meet Hamish for the final time. Your objective is to hunt the Legendary Boar. After splitting up, follow the trail back to Hamish. Head to the fallen Wolf marked nearby. When you hear gunshots, rush to the designated spot. During the Dead Eye sequence, aim for the head. Hamish is mortally wounded and cannot return. His final request is for you to take his horse, Buell. This action will increase your Honor and you will gain a new horse to stable.
Tips
  • If you find fishing difficult in The Veteran II, consider completing the 'A Fisher of Fish' Stranger Mission to improve your skills before returning.
  • When hunting the Wolf pack in The Veteran III, be ready for fast-moving enemies.
  • In The Veteran IV, when aiming for the Legendary Boar during the Dead Eye sequence, aim for the head for a quick kill.
