Poison arrows in RDR 2 are one of several arrow types you can get. Crafting Red Dead Redemption 2 poison arrows is relatively simple, and the ingredients for the arrows are fairly easy to find. The problem is that, even if you have what you need, you still can’t craft RDR2 poison arrows without the recipe. That being the case, our Red Dead Redemption 2 Poison Arrows guide will show you both how to craft them and how to get the pamphlet recipe to make them for free, where to find oleander plants, etc.

How to Craft Poison Arrows in RDR2?

To craft poison arrows in Red Dead Redemption 2, you’re going to need three ingredients: an arrow, a feather, and Oleander Plant. Arrows are available at basically any general store, so they’re the easiest ingredient to acquire. As for the flight feathers, basically any bird will do. Crows, eagles, turkeys, ducks, your choice; every one of them will drop a few feathers. The easiest way to find birds is near bushes or small ponds. Shoot in the air to scare them. When they fly up, use auto-aim to pluck them out of the sky. Then, just skin them and you’ll get the flight feathers. As for the Oleander Plant, you’ll have to scour the land in search for it. This is the most difficult ingredient to get. We’re going to explain them in more detail now.

Where to Find RDR2 Oleander Plant Locations for Poison Arrows?

To find the Oleander Plant for poison arrows in Red Dead Redemption 2, you’ll have to search the area called Bayou Nwa, northeast of the town of Rhodes. You’ll be able to find small groups of usually three oleander plants near the river banks of the Kansas River, which encircles Bayou Nwa. We’ve marked three locations where you can find oleander on the map below. The oleander plant look similar to milkweed. You can find them really close to the water; use your special vision to find where they are more easily. Side note: avoid eating animals you’ve killed with poison arrows.

Even if you know exactly which ingredients you need, you won’t be able to craft them until you get a poison arrows recipe, or pamphlet, as it were.
