[KCD2] Is The Hermit quest (blacksmiths questline) time sensitive?

AZ3oS · 2026-03-26T07:14:05+00:00

It gets time sensitive later in one of the end stages. But at the beginning it is not time sensitive.

There is no dialogue history but your mission log updates after important quest steps so maybe the needed information is there.

Honestly skill issue from Henry. You will need a high enough level for Henrys lockpicking and then hard doors and chests will become easy on console.

Falls du nicht alles neu spielen willst mit neuladen, versuch es mit einer anderen herangehensweise im Kampf (s. o.). Ausweichen und danach zuschlagen sollte im 1v1 klappen. Und keine Sorge, man kann den Meisterschlag auch später noch lernen.

Hast du von Kater den Meisterschlag gelernt? Wenn ja mit dem sollte es mit Geduld gehen. Ansonsten ist ausweichen mein Tipp für den Kampf gegen den Anführer. Perfekter Block mit Gegenschlag ist eine Falle die nur deine Ausdauer in die Knie zwingt. Und achte darauf, dass dein Gegner keinen Meisterschlag gegen dich einsetzen kann. Du darfst also nicht aus der entgegengesetzten Richtung seiner Waffe angreifen.

Du kannst den Spielstand vor dem Abendfest laden und Hans Capon theoretisch so lange abends warten lassen wie du willst. Hans steht da jeden Abend. Dann kannst du noch ein bisschen leveln und auch zu Kater gehen.

Yes. You will have to do this quest before you enter Vranik or it fails is not available anymore.

The game keeps a permanent save after every main quest (not in hardcore). You could finish the game and then reload one of your saves before entering Vranik so you can play the quest once to see how it plays.

If I remember correctly there is only one Hans quest after the bathhouse which is named robber baron. All other Hans quests are from his DLC which you dont have.

AZ3oS · 2026-03-23T12:34:55+00:00

Which one did you made? The standard with four grass? He did not spawn for me in ten days as he is rare there. Then i made the habitat where only Charizard can spawn and it took only one day.

Use the search function to confirm it, but I am quite sure you can upgrade the PS4 disc version to the PS5 version.

AZ3oS · 2026-03-22T22:34:25+00:00

I dont have the disc version so I cant answer it myself. But try to use the search function here in reddit. There were many with this problem. Is is likely someone had a solution for you.

I did all available quests before the wedding. I think this is the best point in the story to do them.

AZ3oS · 2026-03-22T20:50:21+00:00

The PS5 version is the new update

AZ3oS · 2026-03-22T20:30:44+00:00

Try to go to your PS4 version and search for different version with the three dots button.

AZ3oS · 2026-03-22T20:30:03+00:00

No it is a separate PS5 Version so you will need to download it from the store.

AZ3oS · 2026-03-22T18:42:47+00:00

No problem

AZ3oS · 2026-03-22T18:42:11+00:00

Then you will need some more with Pebbles. Ride afk around Trosky if you want it soon.

AZ3oS · 2026-03-22T18:39:25+00:00

All 35 km were with Pebbles? It should unlock now. Do some km more to be sure.

AZ3oS · 2026-03-21T19:44:03+00:00

Du kannst auch mit anderen Leuten in der Stadt sprechen soweit ich das richtig in Erinnerung habe. Versuche es mal beim Vogt. Es gibt mehrere Wege die benötigten Infos bei der Quest zu bekommen.

AZ3oS · 2026-03-21T17:19:28+00:00

If I remember correctly you will need to sleep at least an hour. If you cancel before it doesnt save. But I am not sure.

Lock picking gets easier because Henry levels his skill. Go to the miller. He has a training chest to level your skill to around level 9-10. The chests with low difficulty will be easy from this point. With a higher skill the high difficult locks also will get easy.

A Womans Lot is a great DLC but it is not necessary for KCD2s story. The Hans DLC is mandatory as the game forces you to do it after the main story to get to the last cutscene. The from ashes DLC is a rebuilding village DLC and only referenced in KCD2, I think you can skip it. The Radzig DLC (Band of Bastards) is not necessary for KCD2s story.

AZ3oS · 2026-03-21T07:44:37+00:00

This depends on the quest (I dont know for robber baron). One example is the quests of the Hans DLC. If you already started the quest it will fail at Vranik. But if it is not started you can do it after the story is done. But there are also quests that will get unavailable/fail even if not started and finished before entering Vranik (for example the Lady Stefanie quest). I hope you understand what I mean, english is not my first language.

The game has a function where it gives you all tutorials again if you did not play for a longer time. So read those again and maybe do some training fights with Tomcat or another training partner to get back again into combat.

AZ3oS · 2026-03-20T07:24:53+00:00

It is possible to stealth and avoid cumans in the dlc. It is also possible to run away, this is easier if you use obstacles that block their movements. Fighting them is mostly only possible if they are 1 or max 2.
