Put simply, duelling in Red Dead Redemption is a timed event. The gunslinger with the larger bar (more filled meter) at the end of the time limit wins the duel.. Every gunslinger needs to learn how to duel if they want to survive in Red Dead Redemption 2.Every classic western has a showdown. For a gunslinger, it's the ultimate test of skill, often in a battle to the death.
Get into a duel. The West is a dangerous place, and conflicts are often settled by who has the fastest hand. There are a few ways that you may find yourself in a duel during your adventures: Several story missions feature a duel, as well as a few of the Stranger quests.. You can disarm the enemy instead of killing them for +100 honour instead of the default +50 honour you get for winning a duel. To do this, place a shot on the enemies gun/hand and as long as you time it right the duel will end right away and you will have won and spared the enemy NPC.
