Maintaining a clean appearance in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 significantly impacts NPC interactions and quest outcomes. Dirt and blood negatively affect your charisma and persuasion abilities. Here's how to stay squeaky clean:
Why Cleanliness Matters in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
A clean appearance improves NPC interactions. Looking dirty or poorly dressed hinders conversations and information gathering. Even with high Speech skills, dirt reduces charisma, making persuasion checks significantly harder.
How to Clean Yourself in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
The game offers three cleaning methods: troughs, bathing spots, and bathhouses.
Troughs
Commonly found in towns and outposts, troughs provide a basic clean. Interact with them to wash away some dirt and blood, but this method doesn't clean your clothes.
Bathing Spots
Located near larger bodies of water (e.g., rivers, ponds – one is west of the Nomads’ and Cumans’ Camps in the Trotsky region), bathing spots offer a slightly better clean than troughs, partially cleaning both you and your clothes. However, it won't achieve perfect cleanliness.
Bathhouses
For the most thorough clean, visit a bathhouse (usually found in larger towns). While requiring a small Groschen fee, bathhouses completely remove dirt and blood from both Henry and his clothes, providing the highest level of cleanliness. Regular visits are recommended.
