A Red Dead Redemption 2 player has discovered that panthers can be killed by being thrown at trees. Red Dead Redemption 2 provides many ways to hunt its American wildlife in its open world, but this may be among the most unique ways to defeat a panther.
Since Red Dead Redemption 2 was released, players have created impressive moments. Some have logged over 6,000 hours played, others have performed intense heists, and some have noticed incredible hunting details in Red Dead Redemption 2. There are a wide variety of animals that players will encounter in the open world. The 29 legendary animals and fish add even more challenge to the Red Dead Redemption 2 experience. Among the animals are hostile panthers that will attack nearby players. While hunting animals in a wooded area of Red Dead Redemption 2, a gamer discovered an interesting way to kill a panther.
Reddit user RazkaTaz recently shared a Red Dead Redemption 2 clip in which Arthur Morgan runs through the woods near Catfish Jackson's. Before hiding behind a tree for cover, a panther growls from the shadows, with the player slowly turning to face it. The brush of the forest conceals the animal periodically as it runs around the trees the player uses for cover. After three dodges, the player hurls throwing knives at the panther, landing two shots that injure the animal. The panther then latches onto the Red Dead Redemption 2 protagonist, who throws the panther into a nearby tree, finishing off the wildcat.
According to RazkaTaz, they were using improved throwing knives to change their hunting style. The Red Dead Redemption 2 player stated that their main regret was keeping the reticle for their aim, suggesting they were looking for ways to increase the game's difficulty. The use of these throwing knives reduces the quality of the panther's pelt, which decreases its value. With Red Dead Redemption 2 featuring legendary animals, it isn't rare for players to have interesting encounters like this one. Given that the panther was a run-of-the-mill one, this clip highlights the potential for even the more common creatures.
Many Red Dead Redemption 2 players have discovered the game's intricate collision with how their horses move around the environment. Few fans have captured hunting encounters that utilize the game's collision to their benefit like in this video. There are many aspects of Red Dead Redemption 2 that are realistic, but this may be one of the most interesting combat-related ones.

After a robbery goes badly wrong in the western town of Blackwater, Arthur Morgan and the Van der Linde gang are forced to flee. With federal agents and the best bounty hunters in the nation massing on their heels, the gang must rob, steal and fight their way across the rugged heartland of America in order to survive. As deepening internal divisions threaten to tear the gang apart, Arthur must make a choice between his own ideals and loyalty to the gang who raised him.
