New Social Club Challenge: Legendary Marksman
Beat the Legendary Marksman challenge and you’ll gain access to the Beastmaster cheat, which gives you the ability to call the animals of the wild to your side. Pretty cool, eh?
The Legendary Marksman challenge is a bit different from previous Social Club challenges, though. Instead of completing certain tasks in a gang hideout setting, Legendary Marksman requires you to take your shots (in Expert Mode, no less) while riding a moving train.
The requirements:
- Sharpshooter Rank 4 Ambient Challenge has been completed.
- Kill 20 animals and/or humans while on a moving train. (aka SHOOT ANYTHING THAT MOVES.)
- Get 5 kills in one Dead Eye burst while on a moving train.
- Set Targeting Mode to “Expert” for the entire challenge.
The reward:
Access to the Beastmaster cheat, which (according to Rockstar) is “great in situations where you want animals to become allies“.
