11Overview22Bounty Notice: Salvatore is a key item and bounty quest in Crimson Desert, posted by House Celeste on notice boards throughout the Hernand region. Salvatore is an outlaw wanted for murder, making him one of the more dangerous bounty targets available in the area. His bounty notice can be picked up from notice boards and poles starting in Chapter 2: Golden Greed.88Unlike bounty targets who resist with weapons, Salvatore attempts to flee when confronted. Players must chase him down, tackle him, and subdue him with their fists before tying him up and transporting him back to the Hernand Constabulary. Capturing Salvatore alive yields the full 12 Silver reward, while killing him cuts that reward in half.1010Like all bounty notices, this item cannot be sold. It is stored in the Key Items section of the player's inventory and is used to track progress through the bounty hunting quest line.1212Item Details1414PropertyDetailTypeKey Item (Bounty Notice)TargetSalvatoreCrimeMurderLocationSunset Valley (southern Hernand)RegionHernandIssued ByHouse CelesteAvailabilityChapter 2: Golden Greed onwardReward (Alive)12 SilverReward (Dead)6 Silver (half)SellableNo1616How to Start1717Bounty notices become available starting in Chapter 2: Golden Greed. To pick up Salvatore's bounty, look for notice boards and poles scattered around Hernand. These are marked with a purple letter icon on the minimap. Interact with a board, then select the Bounty Notice for Salvatore from the available listings.1919Reading the bounty notice with L1 (PlayStation) or LB (Xbox) displays Salvatore's details, including his name, bounty price, and the crime he committed. Once accepted, his last known location is marked on your world map.2121Location2323Salvatore is hiding in Sunset Valley, located in the southernmost part of the Hernand region. After accepting the bounty, a marker appears on your map pointing to this area.2525When you arrive at Sunset Valley, head into the settlement and look for the windmill at the back of the town. Salvatore is found inside the windmill. Access it through the doorway to trigger the encounter.2727Walkthrough2929Completing the Salvatore bounty follows the standard bounty hunting capture procedure, though Salvatore is classified as a murderer, so players should approach with some preparation.3131Step 1: Travel to Sunset Valley3333Open your map and follow the bounty marker south through the Hernand region to Sunset Valley. You can ride your horse to cover the distance quickly. The settlement is fairly remote, so stock up on supplies before heading out.3535Step 2: Find the Windmill3737Once you arrive in Sunset Valley, head toward the back of the settlement. The windmill is the tallest structure in the area and should be easy to spot. Go through the doorway to enter.3939Step 3: Chase and Tackle4141When you locate Salvatore, he will try to flee. Chase after him and wait for the tackle prompt to appear. Press the action button (Cross on PlayStation, A on Xbox) to tackle him to the ground when you are close enough.4343Step 4: Subdue and Tie Up4545After tackling Salvatore, punch him repeatedly until the "Tie Up" prompt appears. This usually takes three or more hits. Once the prompt shows, press the button to bind him. Be careful not to hit him too many times after the prompt appears, as excessive damage can kill the target and reduce your reward by half.4747Step 5: Transport to the Constabulary4949Pick up the bound Salvatore and carry him to your horse. Load him onto the horse's back, then ride to the Hernand Constabulary. The guard station is located just outside the Hernand town walls along the western edge of the city. Note that you cannot fast travel while transporting a bounty target.5151During the ride, avoid enemy-heavy areas. If your horse takes too much damage or gets spooked, both Kliff and the prisoner will fall off, and you will need to pick Salvatore up again and remount.5353Step 6: Collect the Reward5555At the constabulary, dismount and pull the prisoner off your horse. Approach the guards and deliver Salvatore to complete the bounty and receive your reward.5757Rewards5959RewardAmountSilver (Alive)12 SilverSilver (Dead)6 SilverHernandian Contribution EXP+3006161Always aim to capture Salvatore alive. Killing a bounty target, whether accidentally or intentionally, cuts the Silver reward in half. The Contribution EXP boost is awarded regardless of whether the target is alive or dead, making bounties a reliable way to build your standing in the Hernand region early in the game.6262Trivia6464Players have noted that Salvatore's appearance on the bounty poster bears a strong resemblance to "Let Me Solo Her," the famous community figure from Elden Ring. This is widely considered an easter egg and a nod by the developers at Pearl Abyss to the Elden Ring community.Salvatore's crime of murder makes him one of the highest-tier bounty targets in Hernand, alongside other violent offenders.6666Tips6868If you are new to the bounty system, consider completing easier bounties first. Jeffrey (pickpocketing) and Simon de Montfort (honey theft) are less dangerous targets that let you practice the capture and transport mechanics.Stock up on healing items before heading to Sunset Valley. Even though Salvatore runs rather than fights, the area around the settlement may have hostile enemies along the route.When punching a tackled bounty target, watch for the "Tie Up" prompt and press it immediately. Continuing to punch after the prompt can kill the target and halve your reward.Plan your return route to the Hernand Constabulary before setting out. Since you cannot fast travel while carrying a prisoner, a shorter path saves time and reduces the chance of running into trouble.If Salvatore does not appear at the marked location, rest at a nearby bonfire and wait several in-game hours for him to respawn.Completing bounties is one of the best ways to earn Silver and Contribution EXP early in the game, which can be spent at the Contribution Shop.If a bounty target escapes during a contract mission, they may reappear in the same location later, so do not worry about permanent failure.7070Reward7272Hernandian +3007474Completion7676The outlaw Salvatore has been handed over to the guards.7878Related Articles8080Key ItemsBounty HuntingBounty Notice: AlessioBounty Notice: JeffreyBounty Notice: Simon de MontfortBounty Notice: WarrenHouse CelesteHernandSunset ValleyContribution81+Key ItemsBounty HuntingBounty Notice: AlessioBounty Notice: JeffreyBounty Notice: Simon De MontfortBounty Notice: WarrenHouse CelesteHernandSunset ValleyContribution
