Whether you’re engaging in intense gunfights or staying stealthy, this guide will help you tackle the mission and bring Montez to justice.

Highly Illegal and Highly Moral Mission Start Location

Highly Illegal and Highly Moral map location.
You will find Marshal Davies waiting for you north of Van Horn.

Location: North of Van Horn Trading Post.

Once you’ve completed the previous mission, Marshal Davies will inform you that you’ve got the wrong man. He will relocate to a house just north of Van Horn Trading Post and give you your next task: to find and apprehend Alfredo Montez. This mission has a required player count of 2-4.

The mission includes the following player objectives:

  • Complete the mission in under 8 minutes and 30 seconds.
  • Kill enemies (regular and stealth).
  • Headshot enemies.
  • Avoid any player deaths during the mission.
  • Avoid taking damage where possible.

Step 1: Choose Your First Destination – Van Horn or the Camp

Deciding to go to Van Horn or the Camp.
When you start the mission you can go to either Van Horn or the camp.

When the mission starts, you’re given the option to visit one of two locations: Van Horn or a camp northwest of Marshal Davies’ location. While you will eventually need to visit both, you can start at either location.

Tip: In my playthrough, we split up—one person went to the camp, while the others went to Van Horn. This approach worked well, but you can experiment with how your group wants to divide the tasks.

Step 2: Van Horn or Camp – Take Out Montez’s Lieutenant

Entering Van Horn, you’ll encounter numerous members of Montez’s gang. You can choose to engage them directly or opt for a stealthier approach. Your primary goal is to track down Montez’s lieutenant, who may be located within the town or coordinating reinforcements from the camp. Eliminating the lieutenant will provide further clues about Montez’s whereabouts.

Camp

If you choose to investigate the camp, be prepared for a confrontation with additional gang members. Clearing the area and eliminating the lieutenant will yield information leading you back to Marshal Davies.

Step 4: Catch Montez

Once you’ve taken out the Lieutenant and cleared the camp, return to Marshal Davies. He will join you on horseback, and you’ll need to chase down Montez and his gang. They’re escaping in a convoy, and your job is to stop them before they make it too far.

  • Tip: When you catch up to Montez’s convoy, you’ll need to engage in a fight. Once you’ve cleared the gang, lasso Montez and bring him back to the designated drop-off point to complete the mission.
