Does completing a legendary bounty mission with a posse member increase the amount of money?

[proper flare]

because I noticed when I solo the virgil edwards mission I get $225 max
but when I have a posse member with me it rises to $252 max

i usually do a 12 minute rule in free roam or with a telegram

but in legendary bounties just take your time.. you can see the gold bonuses go up the longer you're in the mission.

This isn’t always the case.
Different bounties have different outputs and depending on the level and the amount of people I think it does actually change.
But I normally do 20 minutes and it evens out quite well. I’ve never noticed a change in anything over 20 minutes

@proper flare

To your question, if everything else is identical, being a Posse leader yields a small bonus to you as against doing it solo. It's not a large amount for Bounties, but it's there

Do I start the timer when the mission starts or when I hogtie the bounty?

Sorry for a question in a question

[silent glen]

AFAIK After you hogtie. Somebody correct me

[proper flare]

when the cutscene is over and the game tells your first task then start the timer

[thin saffron]

Everyone does it different.
But technically the timer starts when the bounty has been “caught”.
So the true answer is WHEN you hogtie them 👍

I'll try both and compare the pay and get back to this debate

[silent glen]

Do be kind and tag me once you have the answer. I would like to know for my own education as well.

[thin saffron]

I usually do 20 minutes on them
But each bounty target has a different rate so it’ll have to be the same one twice. That’s the only difference I’ve noticed with the pay

I go with this. #1061723990613299240 message

I’ve always done 20 but from what I understand the 12 is better, why?
You get less with 12 minutes

I’ve tried different times and I’ve always had best luck with 20 so that’s really confusing
