Red Dead Redemption 2 has 20 Dreamcatcher Locations. Finding all Dreamcatchers in RDR2 is needed for 100% Completion. They are a type of collectible that hang in trees and this guide shows them all.
None of them are missable. You can find them at any time after reaching chapter 2 and collect they can be collected in any order. You must walk to the trees that have Dreamcatchers hanging in them and hold press / to investigate. You can also press + (Left Stick + Right Stick) to highlight them in yellow color so they are easier to locate.
You can keep track of how many you’ve found under Pause Menu > Progress > Total Completion > Dreamcatchers. They also account for 2% overall game completion.
After finding all 20 Dreamcatchers Locations you can collect your reward at Elysian Pool to unlock a new Perk. Step through the waterfall to find a hidden cave. Use your lantern from the weapon wheel to illuminate the cave. At the end of the cave is a painting you can look at and then take the Ancient Arrowhead from it. This unlocks the Ancient Arrowhead Perk that makes your Stamina last twice as long when using a bow.

Collecting the Reward
After finding all 20 Dreamcatchers, your character will scribble something in his notebook. Head through the waterfall at Elysian Pool to find a hidden cave. It’s very dark so be sure to select the lantern from your weapon wheel (under melee weapons, bottom right of weapon wheel). Walk to the end of the cave and climb the rocks to find a painting on the wall. Interact with it and pick up the item from the wall painting. It’s the Ancient Arrowhead.
It unlocks the “Ancient Arrowhead” Perk in the player menu. It causes your Stamina to drain slower with the bow.
“An old arrowhead that seems to have never been used. Stamina lasts twice as long when using the bow.”
All done! Those are all Dreamcatcher Collectibles in Red Dead Redemption 2 (RDR2). This adds 2% to your total game completion.

All the boxes are checked on mission but it won’t clear. I accidentally sold the arrowhead to a fence. Was I supposed to inspect it first? If so any solution? (If that is the case you may want to make a note in final comments to “be sure to inspect item”)
Rob says
I completed the dreamcatcher quest (shows as complete in Compendium) but my completion percentage didn’t increase. Is this a glitch?
Dreamcatcher says
I got all 20 of them, proceeded to the waterfall and found the arrowhead. The mission log shows it as conpleted but, the mission won’t clear.
Is this a bug?
Ben Williams says
Do you need to get all these for the 100% completion trophy?
Curtis says
My question is: without such wonderful guides as this – how the hell are people supposed to find all of these?? Some of them are totally off the beaten path, and I wouldn’t have found most of them in 10 years of searching myself! Thanks for the help.
Ps- did you have a team of players work together to canvass the whole map to find these collectibles?
Patrick Whited says
I have always wondered this!
Spuds says
I agree. This is the very best guide for RDR2 that I have come across. Props to all the individuals who contributed to making the guide as clear and logical as it is. Congrats to a job well done.

the quest won’t clear from the quests log and the arrow isn’t in my inventory after I got from the cave. but the perk is shown in the player info.
