How to unlock the Picked to Perfection achievement in Red Dead Redemption 2 - Definitive Guide

I started picking herbs outside St Denis during the first online tutorial mission, herbs grow abundantly near the river. I realized I had picked more than 25 and the achievement didnt pop. I still had the tutorial quest active of returning to camp, so I completed this mission then went back to picking herbs and sure enough it popped.

In summary, this only seems to count when in freeroam. So dont waste your time while you have a mission active. I cannot confirm if this achievement will pop before doing the tutorial, so to save on time, attempt this after the tutorial (when you have your own camp). Cheers.

Does this also have to be done in one session?

You can get them from looting enemies as well

Clicking LS and RS help make them easier to see too, made it easier for me at least.

So I encountered a glitch where all my award progress was reset. This meant this stopped tracking. However, continuing to pick the herbs did get it to unlock, but I did have to pick about 30 in total - luckily I hadn’t got very far!

Yep, pretty easy. You can get to the general area wetwork M indicates by selecting Free Roam, Lemoyne when you enter Online.

Just a personal comment, pick herbs is much better at night. Because of contrast between the dark of night with shinning effect from herbs. During the daylight is a little more difficult to see the contrast, anyway, the vibration of controller help a lot when you are over some herb that you don't saw.

Move your camp to Bayou Nwa and here you can find plentiful herbs to pick. Just find and pick 25 herbs and you will gain the Picked to Perfection Achievement. You can see me grab the achievement at 4.27 on the video below.

I unlocked this in around 10 minutes, I did this in the blackwater area but i recommend going to the side of rivers and streams and activate your Eagle Eye by pressing cn_LSc and cn_RSc i have a video provided to show what you're looking for. when you activate the eagle eye the scent of the herbs will come off the plant and will attract your attention. stay away from towns and stay in the areas with no much activity and stay by streams!

for visual learners there’s a video attached.
happy huntin

To pick up a Herb simply press when you are near it. Some plants are easier to see than other but you can use Eagle Eye by pressing + to make it easier to spot them, this will make the plants highlighted in white as well as show some white particles above their location.

A good place to pick up herbs it in the area of the map called "The Heartlands" South Wast of Valentine and north of Rhodes. It's an open area so you don't have to worry about herbs behind trees or anything.

When you reach Blackwater in the story, to the northwest of it there are endless fields with many plants. Collect any and the trophy will fall out.

Nothing complicated. The main thing is to find plants. We play freely and collect. True, some say that we need different types. But the trophy fell when I collected identical plants.

When searching for plants, don’t forget to turn on your eagle vision to make your search easier. A lot of plants grow along rivers.
