Your possible roles in the overview

The bounty hunter

To start as a bounty hunter, you must meet the bounty hunter in Rhodes and acquire the bounty hunter license there. The standard price is 15 gold bars.

As a bounty hunter, you can start work on poster boards near sheriff offices, post offices and train stations. Your target persons vary in difficulty, from individual petty criminals to infamous outlaws. The hunt for bounty can also be done in a squad. Each squad member earns a share of the bounty. If you capture the target persons alive, you will receive a bigger reward.

Rank 12 bounty hunters can hunt other players with a high bounty of at least RDO $ 20. The wanted player has to escape or give up within the given time.
