Enhancing Relationships in Kingdom Come: Deliverance II - A Guide to Dating and Romantic Encounters
Enhancing Relationships in Kingdom Come: Deliverance II
In Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, players can increase the favor of various NPCs, triggering dating events or romantic relationships. This guide aims to help you navigate the dating and romantic encounter events effectively. It is essential for players to understand the dynamics of relationships in the game, as this can significantly influence their journey and character development.
At the conclusion of each romantic event, whether a fleeting romance or a long-term bond, Henry receives the "Beautiful Time" buff, enhancing his strength, agility, and vitality for several hours. There are numerous fleeting romances available for Henry that can provide this beneficial buff.

The simplest way to gain the "Beautiful Time" buff is by visiting the baths. Here, players can pay Groschen for top-tier services, and after a brief wait, enjoy a fresh set of clothing along with the buff. Pricing may vary depending on the bathhouse, but a great and cost-effective method is to reach Kuttenberg, assist the bathhouse owner, and enjoy free service upon completion of the task.
During main and side quests, it is also possible to encounter NPCs suitable for developing fleeting romances. However, players should be cautious as many of these events automatically transition to the next day after being triggered. Therefore, it is advisable to sort out other tasks before initiating these events to avoid missing crucial content.
An example occurs during the main quest "The Host's Path," where engaging with an older lady at the party provides information about her daughter, Dubravka. Compliment her dancing skills after a dance, and subsequent conversations may lead to a confession, allowing for a quick romantic encounter before the wedding ends.
Similarly, during the quest "For Victory!", at the banquet preceding the fight in Nebakov, players should approach Johanka, the widow of Zhenov, seated next to the priest. The initial skill check might fail, but retrying with the highest persuasion option is key. For instance, saying "It’s a perfect day for a bath," then choosing a humorous option will eventually allow players to persuade her after brief chatter.
Additionally, players may trigger certain romantic scenes by conversing with NPCs like "Cursed Mary" while searching for a character known as Goat Skin in the main quest "Deep Underground." Agreeing to join her for a drink will also net the "Beautiful Time" buff.
For longer-term relationships, certain NPCs in the game require players to complete specific tasks to initiate romantic encounters. Notable characters include Rosa Ruzhed, Clara from Nebakov, and Catherine and Hans in the main story, as well as Margaret in side quests.
To successfully pursue Rosa, players should choose dialogue options that increase her affection and complete her side quest "Rosa's Book." After rescuing her from Otto von Borel, players can date her during main quest 24, "The Prayer." Specific steps for this can be found in dedicated Rosa mechanics guides.
Clara's romantic encounter can only be triggered during main quest 11, "God's Messenger," where players must treat three injured soldiers. Directions for this can be found in Clara's relevant guides.
To initiate Catherine’s romance, completing two key side quests is recommended: uncovering a murder case in Kuttenberg and one occurring during the main quest "The King's Gamble." A strong relationship with Catherine during the later parts of the game, when Henry is besieged in the castle, can lead to a romantic storyline.
Moreover, Hans's romantic event indicators appear with heart icons, showcasing choices that lead to significant romantic encounters throughout several designated quests.
