Guide: Completing Storm in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2

Stealth plays a crucial role in completing tasks within *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, and it's particularly essential for the quest "Storm." This mission marks the transition from the Trosky Region to the Kuttenberg Region and is a critical part of wrapping up the main quests. Much like "For Whom the Bell Tolls," "Storm" begins under challenging conditions, with your character lacking armor, weapons, and essential items like Saviour Schnapps, and suffering from reduced health and stamina due to torture.

How To Start ‘Storm’ in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Your journey begins by scavenging gear from guards neutralized by Katherine during your prison break. Although the armor and weapons aren't top-notch, they're better than nothing. Katherine also provides you with her dagger, enabling stealth kills. Your next step is to ascend the Crone in Trosky. The guards along the route are spaced out enough to allow you to either knock them out or use distractions to sneak past them.

At the summit of the Crone, you'll confront Istvan Toth. Since this encounter doesn't affect the quest's ending, opting for a less honorable approach might be wise if you're unsure about your combat abilities, especially given your compromised health. After dealing with Toth, search the room to recover everyone's belongings and gather important documents.

How To Escape Trosky in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

After managing Toth and reclaiming your gear, head back to the dungeon where you left your allies. They will equip their belongings and guide you through the tunnels to escape, making this part of the quest straightforward.

How To Sneak Through the Hills in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

The hills present a challenging segment of "Storm." Keeping your conspicuousness as low as possible is vital to avoid detection by guards, who can quickly summon reinforcements. Your lowered stats from torture make stealth kills and knockouts more difficult.

Begin by taking the right path and ascend when it turns uphill. This leads to a larger, guard-patrolled path that eventually takes you to Mika, who has been captured. Stealthily approach the guard from behind, neutralize him, and free Mika. This action saves your progress and provides you with directions to your next objective.

How To Finish ‘Storm’ in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Your final stretch involves a long bout of stealth. Follow the locations marked on your map according to Mika's instructions. Head east and southeast to reach the main road in Apollonia, then proceed south, sticking to the sides and using bushes for cover. Although the marked area is large, you only need to reach about halfway to trigger the concluding cutscene. Use stones to distract guards and slip past them. Once the cutscene plays, your part in "Storm" concludes, and you move on to the Kuttenberg Region.

"Storm" stands out as one of the few quests in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2* where stealth is not just an option but a necessity. Prioritizing your stealth skills and perks before tackling this mission can greatly enhance your chances of success.
