Getting Mutt with you when you go hunting is a must. Plus you can brew Saviour schnapps without even knowing how to read . There's plenty of belladona 200m past the Inn by the training arena in Rattay if you follow the path on the left until you reach a wall that separates 2 fields. Add wine and 1 nettle to the cauldron. Pull the bellow 5 times,grind 2 belladona and add it to the cauldron when stops boiling ,no need to wait for the fire to go off,then pull the bellow twice, count to 10 and grab a phial . voila! You get 3 Saviour schnapps for the price of 1 even with Alchemy at level 0.

i bought kcd in 2020 and im really glad people are discovering it now, its honestly the best game i ever played and i even feel like i learned some things thanks to it, which is probably exactly the goal of it. i just hope kcd2 wont dissapoint.

If you are playing the Royal edition, be sure to talk to Theresa at the Rattay Mill to pick up Mutt, the companion dog. Hunting, Fighting and Searching. Your canine friend would help you in your journey. Once you learn the "Seek" perk, you dog would Bark whenever an interesting site or buried treasure is nearby and he will lead you there. Be sure to have lockpicks and spade on hand

Seek never seemed to work well for me, but Mutt was always helpful with hunting rabbits.

3:38 It's not true that Captain Bernard does not train you any further unless you've done the patrol with Nightingale. He only sends you to the Rathaus where you are told to meet up with Nightingale in the afternoon and grab some kit from the armoury. Once you've spoken to the Bailiff, you can go back to Bernard for further training and then go back to meet Nightingale afterwards. That way you can learn Combos and Master strikes before going on patrol. That helps a lot in the fight against the Cumans after the hunting trip.

Just started my second playthtough of KCD on hardcore mode and it is such an immersive joy to play! I'll be using these tips, sound man!

I always walk next to Capon. It is more natural, more lore-friendly, and in my mind it might push thoughts like "if he had a horse I wouldn't get captured" into Capon's mind as well. Strengthens the bon afterwards. The whole point of this game is to overcome your humble beginning so being a bright talented peasant at the start is just perfect. And it is also an important lesson and punishment for Henry too, a lesson about knowing boundaries and proper behavior toward nobles.

I think before you go to captain bernard, just when you reach rattay, its a excelent opportunitty to be a thief and a poacher, explore all the world , avoiding fights (except wayfarers), doing millers quests only, just leveling pickpocket, stealth ,lockpick, archery, and only after this thief phase, you then go to captain bernard to go for knighthood.

I feel it's a bit cheesy to use the Talmberg armor. I cannot help but feel they would have had him return it, considering how expensive armor was and the fact that he straight up stole it. I use this to give Henry a makeshift excuse to head to Talmberg and start Lady Stephanie's quest. Something along the lines of, "You can get kitted up at the armory, but first take back those arms you stole from Talmberg." Once you start Stephanie's quest, you can get several other side quests done along the way in Uzhitz, Rattay, Ledetchko, and Sasau as well as a quest from Divish in Talmberg. You don't really need a horse, especially if you are using regular mode with the fast travel options, but if you want one, the roan from Stephanie's Quest can be used to get around while doing all the side quests. Then, you can get Pebbles once you progress along the main campaign. To be honest, too, I feel that the scene where Henry has to walk along while Hans rides adds to the feel of the storyline. I feel the same way about carrying multiple weapons, armors, etc. I have found that immersion is better preserved when you do not allow Henry to carry more than a real person would be able to carry at any given moment, which is really going to be whatever he can wear, one melee weapon and maybe a bow (that is already pushing it, realistically), and things that would fit in a pouch and/or belt holster like coins, keys, and lockpicks. I don't allow him to carry food around with him aside from maybe a single rabbit or fish that he can carry to the nearest fire pit. Otherwise, he just eats whenever he buys or finds it. Then, once he gets a horse, I might have him store some things in the saddlebags, but there is still a realistic limit to that. Some books, maybe some clothing, a single weapon or so, perhaps some food. Not multiple suits of armor, etc. though. These are just how I play, but keeping things more realistic does make the game more enjoyable in my experience.

Actually Barnard will train you in masterstikes immediately after talking to the bailiff. No need to complete the patrol quest. And you can do the first tourney without worrying about unlocking them before it fails.

When you get the guard outfit in the beginning instead of getting the shard, theres a reliable blade in the basket up the latter

I got it when it was first released and it was a bit buggy but never as bad as people said. They fixed it fairly quickly, I'm very pleased with Warhorse. The game has it's flaws but overall it's a work of genius. There's no need to get a 'perfect' start at all, I recommend that you try to roleplay it as much as possible to get the most from it. When it comes to combat, it really helps to train with Bernard and 'masterstrikes' are a game changer, you should learn how to do them.

You can get some experience fighting before meeting with Bernard by fighting Kunesh as a way to get him to give you the "Scavenger" quest and by completing the "Do Me A Favour - Punch Me!" quest with the Skalitz refugees. It won't give you sword skills, but it can help with warfare, agility, and defense.

The one benefit of not having a horse by the time you do the Hans Capon hunting quest is the difference in how the Cuman camp is handled. With a horse, Henry rushes in after Hans and you're in the middle of a melee fight from then on. Without it, Henry starts further out and can stalk upon the camp and use whatever meager stealth and archery skills he has to improve the odds.

"Wait, what Talmberg quest wants you to steal stuff from guards?" When you are at Talmberg and want to leave to go bury your parents. If you talk to the gate guard and pass an easy speech check, he'll suggest you disguise yourself as a guard so he can pretend he didn't notice and let you go. You are then prompted to go and steal a Talmberg guard kit from the armoury. "Also, at what point did you pick up that sword at the 1:18 mark?" Right after leaving Talmberg and find your way to Skalitz. You'll see the Skalitz bailiff's body near the entrance. "After you woke up at Pesheks? Isn't that sword in Skalitz?" No, he means you'll already have the sword by the time you wake up in Pashek's house.

Ай бұрын

Around 8 in the morning til evening he will be at the training yard right outside the upper castle. You can talk to him about more advanced training and by the end he will teach you master strokes. You can also spar with him early on with training weapons. Sense you don't lose health, you will be able to train for hours on end. Good way to boost your stats and skills and lets you practice new combos, much better than paying for individual lessons for sure, only one I'd recommend is defense, the higher it is the quicker you can block and give you more of a gap for master strokes.

How much does Boxer cost?

2:15 you don't only have to beat Hans in the duel in order to win his bow, you must also beat him in archery. I have no problem defeating him in combat but as this is the first mission post Prologue how the hell are you supposed to win at archery when this is probably the first time you've ever held a bow? also the controls kak. especially on console and with no target icon. This is a serious question how am I supposed to beat him archery is there somewhere I can go and practice and level up the skill before I'm forced enter into this duel?

It's powergaming, which is a bit cheesy. If you gamble the money away that was supposed to be used for charcoal, you can kinda justify picking a bunch of nettles to sell, but that's about as far as you can get without throwing off realism. I always thought there should be a "Flowers for Bianca" quest or something like that to introduce herbalism in the intro part, but it is what it is. The game has several areas where I feel a few more side quests could have been added in. Training before meeting Nightingale can be done without exploits by fighting Kunesh upon seeing him in Rattay and fighting the Skalitz refugees in the "Do Me a Favor - Punch Me!" quest. Won't give you sword skill, but it will potentially improve warfare, defense, and agility.

Seem interesting but i've always have the impression that main quest are limited in time, and i know that some of them are. Also, It didn't feel right to stop for a week to train when your lord urge to do stuff.

I wish I hadn't accidentally started "a woman's lot" DLC upon waking after the Prologue. I thought it was a cut scene in a discussion. Also hugely disappointed as nothing collected in items or Gold are gifted to the player upon completion. So DON'T DO THIS FIRST. Don't be tricked into it. This is the first time I've ever played the game.
