Should I get the moonshiner shack?
I don’t have any role except collector should I get moonshiner shack or should I get bounty hunter or trader role? I also got the twitch prime thing so I get polished copper still I think that’s what it’s called for free.

If I understand correctly...

I would go for full trader before which leads you to meet Magie that opens up moonshiner.
Bounty hunter role is the least interesting, imho.

Bounty Hunter will give you both Gold and Cash. Moonshine is a very slow process on making money. Before you really start making moonshine there are missions you should do to lower the cost of Mesh (from $50 to $10 a refill) Otherwise it is not worth doing moonshine. Trader role if you like to hunt and hunt a lot.

River Tam is correct.
NOTE : the more roles you have the more daily tasks become available, which in turn helps to earn gold.

You don't need to lower the cost of mash, if you do it @ full price and sell the best strong moonshine you still get just under 200 bucks profit, which I think is worth it.

If you wait for bootlegger missions and such you just slow your own progress in the name of lowering mash cost but I bet you'd make more overall if you just kept running it full price getting deliveries whenever they come up.

Instead of doing bootleggers while waiting for moonshine, trader missions are more valuable so keep those running too.

My posse basically just does deliveries together now then splits up to keep progress moving on the deliveries for trader and moonshine. That's like all we do now... getting boring.

when i explain the roles and what each role does to my friends that are new to the game, i always say that moonshiner is the "just for fun" role.............. but once you get moonshiner leveled up, it also gives some really easy dailies you can do for free gold

I find every role in this game tedious except moonshiner. all moonshine missions are short and quick.  you don't really do anything and get  $240+ every 45min.  it's like passive income..

There is bigger risk from griefing with being a moonshiner and if your delivery wagon gets damaged you lose profit or griefers will camp your moonshine shack and destroy your wagon completely.

you need trader first to get moonshiner. you will have to rank up the trader and then you will get a mission to unlock moonshiner.

So should I just get bounty hunter and trader? How many bounties completed will it take me to get like 15 gold? And what’s a good spot for hunting animals

Something to know about bounty hunting..after you successfully complete a bounty there is a cool down before you can do another. Capturing bounties alive gives more reward. I've found not killing them to be tricky so far..but I've only done two bounties.
