    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.

    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 ,no need to wait for the fire to go off, grab a phial . voila! You get 3 Saviour schnapps for the price of 1 even with Alchemy at level 0.

    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 just started a new playthrough in anticipation of the sequel and the best early game recommendation I came across was the way to get a noble saddle with 4 saddlebags for free in the prologue. When you are rescuing Theresa from being assaulted by the Cumans, if you get on the horse with the green saddle you can get a noble saddle, you just have to un equip it after you get the cutscene where you get shot in the leg.

  • @StNicolausVI
    @StNicolausVI 5 місяців тому +6

    All around it’s a great guide. Just to add about potions; if you already did a playthrough and remember a recipe (or look them up), you can make them immediately on your new play through and Henry will write them into your book after a successful brew. Aqua Vitalis can be sold to traders, butchers, pubs, herbalists so in Rattay you have like 7 stores to sell to, and you can buy the room in the Inn by the Combat Arena to store your herbs and pots between getting flowers from the fields between you and Neuhof. No stealing needed to make all the money you need. Autobrew has two perks to get instantly 3 potions at lvl 15. If you are quick you can brew twice per look at the recipe book so 6 pots every 2 seconds or so. Also Leg Day perk raises Strength whilst gathering ingredients. I suggest making a batch of 2-300 Saviour Schnapps and then a stock of all the other potions you desire, and then mainly sell Aqua Vitalis.

    When you return the Skalitz if you look at the side of the bridge you can see an unlocked treasure chest with incredible loot in it, a semi-unique brigandine (there's only one other instance of this in the game it's right at the end on a friendly npc who's only in one scene), a bailiff mace, a necklace... I forget what's in it in hardcore mode but all of those are really good. The charisma from the necklace is probably really useful at that point if nothing else.

    You can get the best saddle in the game when Henry escapes Skalitz. Just move its saddle to your inventory. I'm kinda mad I learned about it after arriving in Rattay, but I've become rich by stealing so it doesn't really matter. My armor is very quiet and almost got lockpicking to level 15. When caught I just intimidate the guards and they ignore me. Also managed to kill Bernard and 20+ guards with bow and wounding arrows by standing on top of a sloped roof on a shed next to a staircase. Didn't save obviously, but it suprised me that you could actually kill Bernard when he tries to arrest you.

    I recently returned to kingdom come, I bought it years ago and loved the bit i saw, but I never had the time to play it until now, and I have to say, this is the best game ever created in my opinion, at least in terms of medieval. The first mision after the skalitz tutorial, were you have to flee from the kumans, feels so intense, it is so immersive and you feel the threat for your life. The skills are so well done, they benefiting each other and it really depends on your practice, it´s not about the level of your character, it´s the players experience that makes your character good, I love that concept. The game requires you to plan, to think and the game really let´s you recognize quickly, if you made a fatal mistake.

    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?

    You probably know all this but you can get a free saddle with 4 slots if you grab the first horse you see when fleeing the first city and looting it off the horse after the cut scene when you get shot in the leg. Also abusing the first combo you can learn for a longsword when doing master strikes instead of the combo he wants you to do with gain you 1 stn, 1 sword and 1 warfare until around level 10 in each skill if you just keep doing it and "failing"

    My advice is make your way to skalitz, pick up the expensive armours of the dead soldiers/bandits/cumans, take them back to sasau and sell, you won’t carry much at first but repeat it a few times until you can afford the cheapest horse, and a saddle with 4 carry bags….then return to skalitz and carry 500% more, you only need to do 4-5 trips on horseback with 4 saddlebags and you’ll have a good 10,000 groschen right at the start….or you can do it as many times as you need….. easy levelling up tricks:
    Herbal- pick flowers constantly, pick the strength perk as soon as it appears and strength will level up too, stealth/pickpocket…use padfoot potion and knock out sleeping victims, combat- max out your weapon quickly killing the cows/pigs at sasau…you’ll also level up hunting at the same time.
    When making potions you don’t need to boil anything ever, just add the right ingredients in any order, grind and distil where necessary, marigold decoction is the fastest way to level up.
    Best armour to get is house of zoul armour on the DLC with band of bandits, best sword is St George, found in a hidden treasure map location. Stock up on chamomile potion, Lazarus, bucks, bijou rage, antimisia, for combat….and keep a few hair of the dog potions to instantly stop the drunk effect after taking all the potions.

      "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.

      No, he means you'll already have the sword by the time you wake up in Pashek's house.

    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.

    I appreciate the realism they went for in this game and as much as I love this game I still had issues with it. Archery being one of the common ones. I get that a real person wouldn't see a crosshair but the main reason we need something like that is because in a videogame we don't have the same depth perception. There's also the position of the bow, the way Henry holds it he would essentially be pulling the arrow back to his neck, which you don't do. You can adapt of course and I got pretty good at archery, it's just kind of silly and creates a rather large barrier to entry, maybe that was the purpose since they can't otherwise simulate unskilled archery, perhaps higher levels could have the bow positioned better or something instead.
    The other was melee. I love the combat and the sword fighting is fun. A little annoying being constantly fighting multiple enemies in a system that doesn't support it very well but aside from some frustrations early on I enjoy it. What annoys me is enemies doing constant master strokes on you and combos being almost impossible to pull off 90% of the time. It's great when you can manage to do it but the seemingly RNG quality of master strokes giving enemies essentially a free hit on you can be a little annoying. Picking your battles is all well a good until you pick up a timed quest and inevitably have to reload to an earlier save or fail the quest because those banbits for some reason have a master level swordsman who is totally untouchable with my level 10 swordsmanship. Though there's always cheesing with the bow.
    I wish food was handled better. I liked the idea of hardcore mode but staying fed with tapeworm was tedius even with ascetic simply because I need like 5+ breadrolls or something to get my nourishment up. Each time I have to find a trader and go through the whole shop and barter interface. I don't even mind them removing the overpowered use of shared pots. If they wanted the realism and still wanted me to have to stop by shops for food I wish they'd just let me sit at the tavern and order a meal that would fill me up. Still have to manage eating and paying for food but saves me the tedium. Would be far more immersive too. You'd also still have to manage food in the wilderness because there's no taverns and it would also give you more reason to go to taverns.

      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.

    Also, you don't need all weapon skills on 5 to learn the 'Masterstrike', the one you choose has to be on 3, the rest doesn't matter.
    I'd never train all weapons to 5 in one go, that would take forever, or at least be a quite boring and annoying few hours.
