A Frontera raider waiting by the narrow water channels to ambush anyone who comes to refill their canteen.
What you are walking into
Frontera Raider is level 4, carries 50 health, and is classed Vulture. That makes it an early-game threat, reachable in your first sessions. It has no trick to it beyond persistence, so the fight comes down to your draws and your gear. Every exchange resolves through the Destiny Deck: you draw five cards, choose what to hold, and the resulting poker hand decides how the action lands. Suit matches amplify the result, so the same fight against Frontera Raider plays out differently each time you take it on.
Where to find Frontera Raider
Frontera Raider is encountered at Badlands Canyon - Southern Gorge. You will need to have discovered and travelled to that location before it can appear as a target, and travel between regions carries its own risks — routes are rolled for interception, and a bad roll puts an encounter between you and your destination. The full entry for Badlands Canyon - Southern Gorge covers what else is there.
What it drops
A kill pays 70 experience and between $3 and $6. Its loot table can yield Stolen Goods and Contraband. Drops are rolled per kill, so a full set takes repeat hunting. The first time you kill any species it is also recorded in your Field Guide, which pays a large one-off experience bonus and counts toward the Guide's completion milestones.
