Just like the Ambient Challenges in single player, Red Dead Redemption multiplayer has challenges to complete too. Some of these such as survivalist and master hunter are essentially the same as the single player ones. If you enjoyed doing them before, you'll enjoy doing them again, and yet again when passing through each Legend status.
You can view the challenges in the pause menu under Journal. The following challenges are listed alphabetically. All challenges give experience points (XP) and also give you a new online title that other players will see with your name.
Lawbringer
Lawbringer requires you to complete all the hideouts in the given order.

250XP, Untouchable Gunslinger title
Master Hunter
Kill the animals as told. #3 and #4 should be no problem for experienced players. The best way is getting off your horse and on your feet (your horse will likely die anyway). They will not enter buildings or other covered structures so you can use doorways as a barrier if needed. Running right behind the predator is a good way to get them without getting you. A pistol is a good way to do some damage before the final kill.

Master Hunter II
More difficult animal challenges. For #1, use a gun to do damage before the final kill with a knife. For the legendary animals, each location has a structure or two for you to hide in. Keep killing the predator waves until the legendary animal appears which will take a lot of damage. Note: The wolves can enter the ruins in Barranca but the others do not. The locations are visible on your map.

Outlaw I - Bounty
These are simply to gain a certain bounty. My favorite places to accomplish these are at Ridgewood Farm and the large building with the balcony in Chapurosa. Simply fend off the enemies until you reach the required bounty. Their horses add cash too! Beware of other players coming after you when you reach $1000 and are a Public Enemy.

This set of challenges is to gain a bounty of $1000 and become a Public Enemy the required amount of times. Same tips as the previous. Once you reach $1000, you can kill yourself (jump off a building, run out to all the enemies, etc) to reset and do it again.

Sharpshooter
Some simple gun tricks to accomplish. For #4, steal a wagon (small ones are easiest) and get the horse at a gallop. Your shots won't count if the horse is walking slow. For #3 and #5, take your time and aim carefully. Disarming can be easier on enemies behind cover, who's guns stick out.

Sharpshooter II
These are more tricky. Again, be patient for the first two. Use a shotgun or another powerful weapon (sniper) for #3. I got #4 in Blackwater. Once in a while a person in a light suit with a tall hat will ride through the streets. Then I used a sniper to get his hat. Your mount needs to be at a decent gallop to get it, not walking slow. For #5 go around Manzanita Post, Great Plains, or some other area where you'll have 3 different types of animals at hand.
