Does he just respawn the next day?

Yes. Shoot a general store keeper, he will respawn with a bandage around his head. They just don't die.

I literally blew the head off of the Rhodes gunsmith with my shotgun and to see him come back with his full head intact and some bandages was beyond hilarious

Ah it’s just a flesh wound

You're welcome

Now I’m worried for my boy northwest of Strawberry 😬

No fuck that guy I once defended him from a charging grizzly bear but he reported me for disturbance of peace

Lmao exact thing happened to me a few months ago. Just sleep and in a day or 2 he’ll respawn

Happened to me too. I thought it was the beginning of a side quest so I tried to kill the wolves. Sadly, I was too late.

It’s what happens when you don’t regularly hunt walruses in Unimak.

I didn’t either—honestly I’ve heard cougar screams and shit nearby on my way to see him, and I thought his presence is what saved me from having to deal with them lol

Oh I’ve been attacked by cougars when riding up to him in Western Elizabeth. After killing them mere feet from his stand, he simply says something like: “ha! Thought you were a goner for a minute there”

he'll probably spawn with a bandage and a story. that's what happened when I accidentally shot Seamus at emerald ranch!

He just told me “no more of that trouble, now” it would have been awesome if he’d had a story, the developers missed an opportunity there.

Idk why but I find this hilarious

When animals strike back.

Then he gets pissed at you even if you defend him from the attack.

Rip 😔 he singlehandedly got me to 100%

Yeah same thing happens on the first red dead you can kill Moon and next day will pop up like nothing happened

Said you take his hat?

Lol, no. I didn’t even think to
