Legendary Sapa Cougar Help (Online)

[Kris]

I've been trying to hunt a legendary Sapa cougar, the black one, for a few days now, since I switched from PS4 to PC. I've managed to find a white cougar before, and succesfully killed it, but just as I finished skinning, some asshat came along, and blew me and my horse up just as I got up from the animation, and stole the pelt before running off. I really want the jacket from the black cougar specifically for my character, since I'm going for a "black cat" theme, but at this rate, logging on and then off after two hours of searching for it every day is starting to be draining at best, and depression-inducing at worst. I was wondering if anyone had a quest from Harriet for that specific creature, and if they'd be willing to do it with me so I can sell the hide to Gus. I'm not sure how I'd be able to repay the favour, but if there's anything I can do in return, please let me know. I would be incredibly grateful for this.

theres a 72 hr cooldown for each legendary type to spawn for you ie cats/gators etc
a quest does appear, gl with it

I know there's a cooldown, but it took me ages to even get that one to spawn. I've also found out after some more research that the specific one I need to kill is ONLY from Naturalist quests... so my only option is to have someone help me, or grind the worst job in the game for days at a chance for it.

So get naturalist and do a mission.

The Sapa Cougar isn't only available on quests, I have my Camp setup in Gaptooth, and have run into that cougar about 3 times already in the last 2 weeks in free roam.

It requires level 5 in Naturalist which takes ages, and it's the most boring job in the game to me. I did it on PS4, I really don't want to do it again, but I know there's other people who do enjoy it. I mean, I like hunting Legendary Animals, but with Naturalist, I'd just be constantly tranquilising trash animals for a week before I can even start doing anything remotely interesting.

In Gaptooth you only get Maza cougar.

Which is the Sapa then? Is that the one that spawns near Braithewaite Manor?

Sapa cougar is mission only. At scarlett meadows freeroam you can get nightwalker panther. Or iwakta via another mission.

You can get to level 5 within two days tops. It's dumb easy to level up. I've been doing the missions and tranquilizing any animal I come across. I also go to Emerald Farm and sedate a bunch of farm animals there. You've been wasting days looking for a spawn when all that time you would have been past level 5 already. Use your time wisely.

For me the Sapa mission was not easy. I had to do it like 3 or 4 times to get the sample and then the pelt. It's one of those missions that has you running around in the area from north of Benedict point, Gaptooth ridge, and the settlement south of there investigating and tracking to like 3 camp sight kills and then at the end having to kill a bunch of poachers, release it from the cage, and then kill it before it kills you, but the mission isn't the same every time. Two of the times I did it, the cage would be in a messed up, or inconvenient location They change locations, and situations. It's still in the same general location though. Have fun.
