Revenge is a dish best served cold in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. Sometimes, it's also something you could dish out in the middle of a torrential downpour. Here's our guide on how to complete Storm in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. Likewise, please be reminded that this article contains major spoilers.How to complete Storm in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 - Quest guideStorm is a main quest in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. Similar to For Whom the Bell Tolls and Demons of Trosky, it also takes place in Von Bergow's fortress: Trosky Castle. The key difference is that this quest serves as the conclusion to the game's first act, and it also includes a pivotal moment involving an old rival.Note: Henry won't have access to most of his items at the start of this quest. Since you don't have Savior Schnapps, you have to rely on autosaves for a while. Part I: Sneaking around Trosky CastleAfter the cutscene, steal from the dead guard and equip the available weapons and gear. There are only a select few enemies in the castle, so you don't need to worry too much. For now, just head to the wooden walkway that takes you to the Crone Tower (i.e. western part of the fortress). If you want, you can use your Stealth and Thievery skills to silently kill or incapacitate any guards you encounter. Part II: What to do with Istvan TothThe Crone Tower has a couple of guards, but they're distracted as it's already nighttime. Proceed further to the top of the tower until you trigger an autosave. What follows next is a confrontation with Istvan Toth.You can now decide what to do with Istvan Toth in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. Naturally, you can ask him about his motivations and his mindset. Once you've exhausted all dialogue options, you can eliminate him dishonorably, or you can engage him in a fair fight.Make no mistake: Toth is ruthless, and he's also wielding Henry's sword. Henry is also in a weakened state and the gear you obtained from the guard isn't really optimal. A single lucky blow from Toth could finish you off rather quickly, so you need to be careful when blocking and counterattacking.After the cutscene where Toth falls to his doom, Henry will reacquire his old weapon: Radzig Kobyla's Longsword. Moreover, you can inspect the room on the top floor to find your belongings, as well as important documents. Part III: How to escape Trosky CastleReturn to the dungeon at the depths of the Maiden Tower and enter the cell on the left-hand side. There's a staircase here that leads further down to a hidden tunnel. At the halfway point, you should see a pool of water with a pail that's dangling from a rope. In case you missed it earlier, there's a Gold Emperor's Badge on the rock that should help you out in the Farkle dice minigame. It grants bonus points from 1+1+1 rolls. Part IV-A: Making your way through the hillsSo, you thought the Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Storm quest was gonna be a cakewalk? Well, think again. Here comes the hard part.After Henry and his pals talk about their escape, the group realizes that countless guards are patrolling the hillside area. Your goal is to make it to the center of the rocky outcroppings to reach a fellah named Mika. Here are some important tips to remember:Ideally, you should have low visibility and low noise values, which depend on the gear that you're wearing and if you're over-encumbered. Drop and unequip gear pieces that only cause a burden.Henry has just been recently tortured, too. This debilitating debuff greatly diminishes his Strength, Agility, and Vitality. At low health, you're unlikely to survive bouts against multiple guards.That's why this whole section, regardless of how you want to proceed forward, is all about stealth. You have to sneak past numerous guards without getting spotted. Mistakes can cause soldiers to call on their allies, and you could find yourself facing dozens of hostiles soon enough. Part IV-B: A meeting with MikaIn any case, we recommend turning right from the tunnel exit and following the sloping path uphill. Stay low as you move to the south, then turn east at the clearing. You should see the main road in front of you. Beyond that, past a few patrolling troops, is the spot where you need to meet up with Mika, Katherine's contact.Mika is being accosted by a guard, so go behind this foe and incapacitate/assassinate him. Mika will thank you for your help, though he says that the coachmen are further away to the south. Reaching this part triggers an autosave. Part IV-C: The hillside roadsAfter a brief chat with Mika, it's time to continue the Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Storm quest. Turn around, and you'll see a guard with his back turned. It's tempting to take him out, but we suggest heading east, down a sloping path with another guard. This takes you to the outer edge of the hilly area.Soldiers are still on patrol here, as are a few horsemen. However, they should be easy enough to avoid due to wide open spaces with a lot of bushes.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 - Storm Quest Guide

Revenge is a dish best served cold in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. Sometimes, it's also something you could dish out in the middle of a torrential downpour. Here's our guide on how to complete Storm in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. Likewise, please be reminded that this article contains major spoilers.

How to complete Storm in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 - Quest guide

Storm is a main quest in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. Similar to For Whom the Bell Tolls and Demons of Trosky, it also takes place in Von Bergow's fortress: Trosky Castle. The key difference is that this quest serves as the conclusion to the game's first act, and it also includes a pivotal moment involving an old rival.

Note: Henry won't have access to most of his items at the start of this quest. Since you don't have Savior Schnapps, you have to rely on autosaves for a while.

Part I: Sneaking around Trosky Castle

After the cutscene, steal from the dead guard and equip the available weapons and gear. There are only a select few enemies in the castle, so you don't need to worry too much. For now, just head to the wooden walkway that takes you to the Crone Tower (i.e. western part of the fortress). If you want, you can use your Stealth and Thievery skills to silently kill or incapacitate any guards you encounter.

Part II: What to do with Istvan Toth

The Crone Tower has a couple of guards, but they're distracted as it's already nighttime. Proceed further to the top of the tower until you trigger an autosave. What follows next is a confrontation with Istvan Toth.

You can now decide what to do with Istvan Toth in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. Naturally, you can ask him about his motivations and his mindset. Once you've exhausted all dialogue options, you can eliminate him dishonorably, or you can engage him in a fair fight.

Make no mistake: Toth is ruthless, and he's also wielding Henry's sword. Henry is also in a weakened state and the gear you obtained from the guard isn't really optimal. A single lucky blow from Toth could finish you off rather quickly, so you need to be careful when blocking and counterattacking.

After the cutscene where Toth falls to his doom, Henry will reacquire his old weapon: Radzig Kobyla's Longsword. Moreover, you can inspect the room on the top floor to find your belongings, as well as important documents.

Part III: How to escape Trosky Castle

Return to the dungeon at the depths of the Maiden Tower and enter the cell on the left-hand side. There's a staircase here that leads further down to a hidden tunnel. At the halfway point, you should see a pool of water with a pail that's dangling from a rope. In case you missed it earlier, there's a Gold Emperor's Badge on the rock that should help you out in the Farkle dice minigame. It grants bonus points from 1+1+1 rolls.

Part IV-A: Making your way through the hills

So, you thought the Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Storm quest was gonna be a cakewalk? Well, think again. Here comes the hard part.

After Henry and his pals talk about their escape, the group realizes that countless guards are patrolling the hillside area. Your goal is to make it to the center of the rocky outcroppings to reach a fellah named Mika. Here are some important tips to remember:

Ideally, you should have low visibility and low noise values, which depend on the gear that you're wearing and if you're over-encumbered. Drop and unequip gear pieces that only cause a burden.
Henry has just been recently tortured, too. This debilitating debuff greatly diminishes his Strength, Agility, and Vitality. At low health, you're unlikely to survive bouts against multiple guards.
That's why this whole section, regardless of how you want to proceed forward, is all about stealth. You have to sneak past numerous guards without getting spotted. Mistakes can cause soldiers to call on their allies, and you could find yourself facing dozens of hostiles soon enough.

Part IV-B: A meeting with Mika

In any case, we recommend turning right from the tunnel exit and following the sloping path uphill. Stay low as you move to the south, then turn east at the clearing. You should see the main road in front of you. Beyond that, past a few patrolling troops, is the spot where you need to meet up with Mika, Katherine's contact.

Mika is being accosted by a guard, so go behind this foe and incapacitate/assassinate him. Mika will thank you for your help, though he says that the coachmen are further away to the south. Reaching this part triggers an autosave.

Part IV-C: The hillside roads

After a brief chat with Mika, it's time to continue the Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Storm quest. Turn around, and you'll see a guard with his back turned. It's tempting to take him out, but we suggest heading east, down a sloping path with another guard. This takes you to the outer edge of the hilly area.

Soldiers are still on patrol here, as are a few horsemen. However, they should be easy enough to avoid due to wide open spaces with a lot of bushes. Continue going south-southeast along the edge of the road until you see another path that leads back uphill.

Past this point are ruins, which trigger an autosave when you approach. However, this place is also crawling with guards.

Storm quest conclusion

From the last autosave, we recommend following the path along the right-hand side, while using the bushes as hiding spots. As you reach the crest of the hill, keep going south while checking if there are any troops nearby. Eventually, you should reach the marked location halfway to the "Apollonia" part of the map. This leads to a cutscene. The coachmen here will rescue your friends back in the tunnel.

That does it for the Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Storm quest. After the cutscene is done, Henry and co. will find themselves in Suchdol-Kuttenberg for the game's second major arc. Don't worry since you could still fast travel between regions.
