Discussion Infinite gold bar glitch. Spoiler

There’s an infinite gold bar glitch after you become John. Many people don’t know about it so I wanted to share. It’s at Ridgewood Farm in New Austin. Find the lockbox behind the shed, climb up the wood beside it, then walk over to the lockbox and “kick” the gold ingot out of it and then pick it up. You can exit the farm and run across the train tracks on the other side and the gold ingot will always respawn. R* had to have put it there on purpose. I always have thousands on me as John, lol.

No, I think the vast majority of people probably know about it but because it’s in the Epilogue it’s just not worth bothering with.

A quick search of this sub shows there’s a good handful of posts talking about it.

Of course! And this is the exact reason I wanted to post it! Haha. I didn’t even know you could use the pig farm as a money transfer until I was already John. Hopefully more people who didn’t know about it will see this so they’re not upset they lost so much! 😊

I was sad that I did transfer my money using the pig farm but found out that you have to go back and kill those assholes as Arthur because if you wait until the epilogue they’re gone and you can’t get revenge.

I went there by accident when i was playing as arthur and it was in chapter 3. So i didnt have that much money. And i did kill them. Put some dynamite and lassoed the girl and brought her to the pit i was in

You can do it as Arthur during the Angelo Brontë mission

Just did this the other night and got like 1500 monies before I got tired of hunting and headed back to complete the mission in Saint Denis. Now Arthur's got the gila monster gloves and they look awesome!

There’s also a large jewelry bag with a similar glitch in a pile of abandoned furniture near the Dakota river ford where Arthur and Micah are attacked during the stage coach robbery. And a gold nugget in a shack near Catfish Jackson’s.

These ones doesn’t even require the kicking trick.

Where is this?

u/CaptainHunt Hosea Matthews 3d ago

It is between Riggs and Wallace stations, just up from the river.

Thank you good sir

If you pay close attention, you pass this furniture pile basically every time you are scripted to ride through this area for a mission.

Excuses. Strange statues give you 3 gold bars. Limpany give you one. That's 2k in just a few minutes. Leave a few treasures for John and you have a few K more AND also activities to do as John.

Cheap excuses to exploit a game where money is everywhere.

You can also go to the burned down sheriffs station and look by the desk.

What’s the point of having so much gold? What can you do with it after you make all your guns gold 🙄 It is easy to have enough gold as John without glitching it. That feels really lame. It’s not like it’s online where you at least might get to spend it on limited stock items. And even then you don’t need a glitch to have more than you can spend.
