Introduction
Kingdom Come: Deliverance II is a medieval role-playing action game. So, how should beginners play? Below is a quick start guide for newcomers, brought to you by “Yesterday's Day Cannot Stay 1,” which we hope will help everyone.
Wanted System
- Sleeping Necessity: You need permission to sleep. Sneaking into someone else's bed is illegal. Many unfortunate new players have found themselves caught after sleeping on hay beds in the novice village without being jailed, showcasing a lesson learned. (Tip: near your bed, there's generally a chest, and it will prompt you to press E to sleep and save the game.)
- Stealing Consequences: If you steal something and a guard sees you nearby afterward, they're likely to assume you're the thief. Thus, avoiding guards is a must for new players.
- Nights Out: When sneaking at night, carry a torch; otherwise, guards will follow you or even yell at you, which may result in a fine.
The Severity of Crimes and Their Punishments
In Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, crimes are categorized by severity, leading to four levels of punishment. If you're caught stealing too much at once, you may be facing the second-tier punishment immediately. Don't assume that your first offense will only result in the lowest penalty of the fourth degree; for murder, the fine starts at at least 1,000 gold. The higher your status, the more severe the punishment. So, try not to slaughter peasants in the beginner village; give the local farmers a chance to survive.
Tips on Sleep Locations in the Early Game
Here are some prime spots where you can rest early on:
- Behind the Broken Cart Opposite the Tavern in the Beginner Village: Illegal sleeping spot available from 24:00 to 5:00. Be aware that you might be discovered during the day; this is a solid option for emergencies in the early game. After advancing the story, you can purchase a mattress legally.
- Empty Sleeping Space Behind the Herbalist at the Nomad Camp: Illegal sleeping spot also available from 24:00 to 5:00 (not tested during the day).
- The Blacksmith and the Miller: Both are legal spots. The Miller has a chest on the third floor, while the blacksmith's bed is just inside the back door.
Beginner Village Exit Strategy
First, have a chat with Balda (you will encounter Balda in image two, but this isn't part of the story, just take your time to find him). Make sure to complete the side quests, as the master’s retaliations can be incredibly strong.
Getting Started in Kingdom Come: Deliverance II
When you start your journey, head south to find the stables. Choose the most distant horse, and if no one is around, ride it away. It seems unrealistic that there’s no one overseeing the horses during the day. Next, make your way to the Semigallian fast travel point (for those uncertain, check the interactive map). After that, head to the nomad camp to sell the horse, and once the sale is complete, fast travel back to Semigallian to buy back your original horse.
Now, look for a mill owner or blacksmith to establish your first legitimate bedroll. I recommend the mill owner. Congratulations, you've left the beginner village!
Why recommend the mill owner? The answer is simple: he instructs you to practice stealth, assassination, and lockpicking techniques. This is how the Bohemian rogue re-enters the scene (the first game was about entering the scene for the first time).The practice lockpicks at the mill are very easy, allowing you to increase your stealing skill to 9, which is adequate for the early stages of the game.
Essential Stealth Gear in Kingdom Come: Deliverance II
In Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, you can receive a set of stealth armor. For beginners, use the set provided by NPCs in the starting village. If your stealth stats are below 30, simply replace your upper armor with a green tunic from the tailor located southeast of the gallows. I can't remember its exact name, but it's the only piece that can lower your stealth stats to 30. It's inexpensive, so just purchase it directly as gaining access to the tailor's shop can be quite challenging. It may be easier to steal the key.
The mill boss quest will reward you with a set of stealth gloves that have excellent attributes and are worth keeping.
Principles of Bohemian Thievery in Kingdom Come: Deliverance II
| 原則 | 描述 |
|---|---|
| 1 | After being wanted, if you can afford the fine, lure a guard into the wilderness where no one is watching, first pay the fine, then eliminate them (violently resolving is also an option). |
| 2 | If you can't afford it, avoid the area until you meet the first condition. |
| 3 | I pay the money and the merchant provides the goods. However, during the day, the merchant collects my money, and at night, it should end up in my pocket. |
Stealing and Selling Horses
While engaging in theft and selling horses (find horses northwest of the nomadic camp; the starting camp is located at a bandit camp where you can kill the bandits and steal a horse to sell), don't neglect the blacksmith. Practice your skills until they reach level 16, and be sure to unlock Martin's secret talent. This is crucial—equip yourself with crafted gear as it makes you nearly invincible; just swing your axe and you'll quickly reach level 16.
How to Obtain Equipment
The method of obtaining is very simple: After completing the blacksmith's first quest, go to Sázava and find the person with the most luxurious gear in the image below. It's recommended to steal the key at night to access the chest for the equipment. This person usually sleeps on the second floor in the northeastern part of Sázava, either at the entrance to the left or right. After stealing, it's best to avoid Sázava for a while (until your gear has been cleaned through the passage of time).
Shortsword Blueprint
The Basileade Shortsword can be found at the location mentioned in the map. At Crafting level 16, if you achieve level 4, this will yield the best shortsword in the game (it is the best and strongest weapon, with no substitute).
Equipment Acquisition Method
| 物品 | 獲取方式 |
|---|---|
| 巴塞拉德短劍 | 工藝16，打出4級 |
| 裝備 | 在塞米獲得，晚上偷鑰匙開箱 |
Master Counter-attack Mission
An Unerring Method
The best equipment guide from the previous floor is the most powerful gear in image one. Remember to press Z to lower your visor (this somewhat obstructs your view in group battles, but has no effect in one-on-one fights). Equip the sturdy plate armor and purchase a weak-effect poison from the nearby shop to apply on your sword. You only need to hit the bobcat once; after hitting it, focus on defense until the bobcat surrenders. (It’s advisable to save your Savior's Schnapps just in case, and buy the poison together with it.)
After following the steps mentioned, with plate armor on, a level four short sword in hand, and stealth capabilities below 30, congratulations! You can roam freely in image one. However, be cautious when roaming around in image one, as it may cause issues with the storyline.
The Three Principles of the Bohemian Thief
Items in the game are divided into three categories:
| 類別 | 內容 |
|---|---|
| 錢 | 這是硬通貨，偷了也不是認爲贓款會沒收，一切行動圍繞它 |
Strategies for Selling and Acquiring Gear in Kingdom Come: Deliverance II
When it comes to selling, whether through theft or legitimate means, remember that expensive items, such as large plate armor, are challenging to sell. It’s recommended to trade your loot for items valued below 1000, making it easier to dispose of. (See Image 2 - The armor merchant has about 800 coins.)
For personal use, prioritize acquiring armor; crafting your own weapons is ideal, as our protagonist comes from a blacksmith background. Purchasing a complete set of late-game plate armor requires around 20,000 coins. However, borrowing it overnight and spending a long time laundering it may not be suitable, so direct purchase is recommended.
Key Points:
For example, if you have 5,000 coins and aim to buy a complete set that costs 20,000, what’s the strategy?
First, buy armor for 5,000 coins, then sell the loot from Image 1 (yes, that plate armor you borrowed from Semi), along with some extras, to make over 5,000 coins. This way, you regain those 5,000 coins and can buy another 5,000 worth of items (by the first day, you’ve already purchased 10,000 worth of gear, achieving half a set).
Take out the 5,000 coins again overnight; stealing the key is easier than picking locks (especially difficult locks).
Return the next day to buy again, and repeat this process.
Within three days at most, you can acquire a full suit of end-game plate armor for free, allowing you to soar with confidence!
Congratulations on Your Journey to Becoming a True Knight
Congratulations on graduating with all your gear and achieving economic freedom! Now, you can sweep through Bohemia and reclaim your true self.
Dice Game Strategy
The dice game is quite simple. Head to the tavern in the novice village at 8 AM. You'll find a guy sitting in a chair. Just knock him out directly and take the Trinity dice from his pocket. Repeat this process six times. This way, you can roll a total of six threes; you’ll see him shaking his head...
