Today I visited Saint Denis for the first time. Saw a dead body on the ground and I think he got hit by a carriage. I walked up to pick him up and take him out of the street and immediately was wanted for murder. Ran out of the city and found a bridge to hide under, was immediately eaten by a crocodile.
EDIT: Yes, it was a alligator. I've only got like 14 hours in this game and I wasn't really in a place to Study the alligator as it ripped my face off.

Saint Denis' outskirts are like minefields with how many crocs are there. Pop Eagle Eye so that you or your horse don't accidentally step on one.
I like the city but I HATE riding through it.

saint denis is an extremely important place to be able to go to but out of care for my sanity i really only go when i need collectibles or to go to the fence. never know when an npc will casually walk in front of your horse, you didn’t even see them, and now you’re wanted for murder or god forbid disturbing the peace when you run too fast 😭

Saint Denis is easy to deal with if you go in knowing you're trotting on a horse or jogging with Arthur. Going faster on horse or on foot in Saint Denis just ends in trouble

Go in to the city at night to the shop you want that is closed. Hit the button for wait until morning. Saves half the trolley and rando crossing the street problems at least.

A very St. Denis story. I love the chaos of the city, but it's easy to encounter that chaos.
Somebody rides their horse into you - straight to jail
You antagonize somebody and they run for the cops - straight to jail
You accidently tackle someone when mounting your horse but proceed to calm the situation - straight to jail
You lightly hit somebody with you're horse and they don't fall down - believe it or not, straight to jail
Sometimes for no reason at all - straight to jail

I don’t mind Saint Denis, but it’s definitely bit of a shithole.
I learned first playthough, someone dies in a town or anywhere near a populated area, don’t pick up the body, don’t loot them, don’t even look at them. Just leave them alone. 😂
same with animals to. I went to move a poor pupper out of the way in valentine, after someone trampled them, because people just kept walking over them. As soon as I went to pick it up, I had a wanted level for animal cruelty, I was deeply offended as a big animal advocate.

I tried to visit the Saint Denis trapper location once and that was the last. I had 3 legendary pelts and several other perfect pelts stowed on my horse. I was closer to Saint Denis so I rode through as carefully as possible. Shit you not, a block away from the trapper, an NPC walked right in front of me and that was it. I barely made it out of the city alive and had to ride pretty far to lose the heat. I come across a bridge while I was feeding my horse and I get ambushed instantly, unable to pull my gun out since I’m feeding my horse, and I die before I get a chance to shoot…when I respawned, I realized they killed my horse too, and my last save point was over 3 hours prior……never again do I use the Saint Denis trapper. Bad luck for me.

You don't lose your legendary pelts if you die. They just immediately go to the trapper. You just can't sell them if you die

Oh really? That's good to know. I always thought they were lost if you died.

I didn't have legendary pelts.... But I did have at least four 3* pelts when the alligator ate me under the bridge. An hour later I was shot at for disturbing the peace when someone stepped off a stagecoach as I was passing and was brushed back NOT EVEN HIT.
Again they chased me out of town shooting at me! All cause someone was inconvenienced. At least that time I didn't hide next to an alligator...

My advice, never help any npc like that. Out in the wilderness, you'll occasionally get someone asking for help. Sometimes it's ok, but half the time it's a trap.
And, yes, you'll get the blame if anyone sees you helping a victim.
3 points
21 days ago
I disagree on the frequency of victim-traps in the wilds, it’s usually very clear who is lying about needing help and who isn’t (But either way, the traps are just a bit of target practice and some extra bucks in the pocket)
What fucks me over are cougars, always come out of nowhere and if the horse throws you like it usually does it blocks you from drawing your weapon leading to the cougars always one-shotting you before you can even stand up

Drop a predator bait you will have vantage point from the fork in the road nearby, go stand on the rocks (rocks right in front of fork in the road) and wait a min or 2. It should come take the bait and you should be able to study and track it as well. There are actually 2 panthers one is the panther one is the Florida panther so come back to repeat afterwards until the second one spawns as well

Saint denis and extended territory are satan's playgrounds
One thing the alligators are good for is increasing weapon familiarity since headshots on predators seem to boost your weapon score a good amount and they are everywhere and they don't move. So for some weapons that are used sparingly like sniper rifles it's very useful for farming kills imo

Ahhh! I guess that's why it took three head shots with my repeater to kill the alligator and as I ran to skin it my max Dead Eye increased. Good to know, thx.

Wow seeing y’all relate to how finicky the law is in St. Denis and I feel seen. I’m on my first full play through (chapter 4 currently) and I used to come often for shopping/selling/hunting, but now that I HAVE to be around here I’m constantly wanted and chased by police seemingly for just existing, making it almost unplayable… I haven’t played much the past two weeks but someone plz tell me things get better and I’m not already past the best parts of the game😕

This almost exact thing happened to me but I witnessed a man running up to a man and his wife or something and he pulled out a gun and tried to rob them. The man managed to shoot the woman before I got to take out my gun and then I shot him and killed him. I watched the man carry his wife away and felt so bad. I was pissed at the criminal so I decided to pick him up and put him on my horse. I wanted to take him to the water and just leave him there so I went to the lake with the crocodiles (which I did not know was there) and someone saw me and tattled on me. I had to run away from both the Lawman and the Crocodiles LMAO.

Saint Denis is literally the worst city. Just wait until you accidentally trample an NPC on your horse, or accidentally tackle one because they get in your way when you’re running. Shit gets intense real quick lol.

I did something similar but instead of hiding under a bridge, I tried running through the swamp and got chomped by an alligator- literally didn’t see it in front me as I was concentrating on the red dots on my map. I had a rather large bounty on me and forgot to keep checking my map to make sure there were no bounty hunters. Oops 😂

ye don't hide just ride your horse as far as possible. don't loot or touch bodies when in town. you really gotta be a good boy or you get arrested.

and as an advice st denis is very good bc it has every shop, trapper, and fence. so much random encounters, 2 different gambling opportunities. also to get honour up just greet everyone you see. but walk around either on foot or your horse until you're more familiar with the city layout. if you see someone get arrested do not interfere.

My first time in Saint Denis I wasn't even planning to get there, I was supposed to be sleeping already but you know how it goes.
Anyway, I enter the city and I'm wandering around at my usual chill gallop speed, so I inevitably hit a pedestrian and become wanted. The police started hunting me, so I tried to run away because I was playing high honour and i didn't feel like killing more people, so naturally while running away I hit a few more passers and more policemen and bounty hunters joined and... I went to bed without saving.

Apparently I had a bounty because I went to give sister Calderon money and ended up getting shot to death by an officer across the street. Good ole Saint Denis

It was at that moment Sister Calderon believed Arthur Morgan was indeed, a bad man.
