I consider wiping our melee weapon with Dollmaker Potion absolutely critical. Without it, 1 v 4 fights would be a disorienting nightmare because enemies have a habit of running around,made worse by the realistic emulation of head movement when Henry gets hit. You don't want to run into the "Heavy Armor" gang without atleast doing this.
Exactly mate, I more prefer Bane Potions to laced my weapons with and always brings Mutt to help you distracting the bandit when you getting surrounded.
I recently got into a situation where I was doing the Raiders quest and aggro'd another nearby camp. While I was back peddling to keep space, I triggered an ambush on the road. Luckily, I took a few out of the first group and downed another couple in my retreat before the last group joined, but it was pretty hairy. The fight took so long, Mutt ran away at the beginning but came back while I was fighting off the last few.
@@showusjustice523 It does mate, adding poisons on your weapons can make very significant difference in your survival. For example the Dollmaker poison can slowdown your enemy movements, they will stop rushing when you make tactical backwards you can even change to bow and shoot them with arrows while doing that. Bane poison are the most effective poison i've ever know in KCD once administered into your enemy body it will start to drain their HP in high amounts for every second. But that's all can work faster and the chance for the poison to enter your enemy body if you take these following perks: - Heavy Swing (Strength) - Blood Rush (Vitality) - Firm Grip (Defence) - Bloodletter (Warfare) - Rusty Edge (Warfare) - Sadist (Warfare) - Chain strike (Warfare) - Serrated Edge (Maintenance) - Tin Opener (Maintenance) - Blacksmith's Son (Maintenance) The only weapon that can work effectively with poison are Longsword, Short-Sword, Axe, and Arrows (*Better Wounding Arrow and Better Piercing Arrow*) only Mace that's not work well.
@@showusjustice523 they definitely work better on arrows because they pierce armor. Hand weapons need to actually break skin for the potion to work. If they have heavy armor, that may be harder to do.
1. Archers can be dealt with by blocking their line of fire with one of their allies. They will shoot each other. 2. An enemy breaking combat stance and running towards you will try to attack when in range again. By attacking just before they enter combat stance again, they will run into your blade. 3. Pick the most heavily armored foe of an ambush group. Take them out before entering combat. 4. Certain foes with heavy polearms and maces have blunt force damage. They will ignore armor. Take them out first. 5. Guards will help you when you get attacked 6. On horseback your blunt force damage is so severe that a fully armored foe can be dealt with in 1 blow.
when i first went back to skalitz (so very early game) and there were like 7 bandits, i couldn't take "defeat" as an answer and started running around. eventually found a spot in the camp where you have to jump over a wooden barracade and started shooting from there with my hunting arrows. it took forever lol
Thanks for the video. I love this game, but I've yet to finish it because I get tired of cheesing fights with multiple enemies. These tips are all largely immersive. I'll give them a try.
I was overcumbered and did the vipers nest for fun, 7 men at once vs slowpoke me, just backpeddling and perfect block counters, I didn't even level much at that point. The combat gets frustratingly easy once you learn a couple of tricks
The first things you must understand when playing this game are the combat mechanics (this is not hack and slash type of game). The second is always take advantage of anything that can make you survive (environment, horse, dog, potions, poison, perks, plate armour, weapons choice) The third is a lot of patience to level up your character, remember... the stronger your character the easier to get through all the difficulty in your journey.
Just toggle between enemies during combat, use a shield and a shortsword, and make sure to master strike. So when you perfectly block, you want to immediately carry a stab attack. Keep doing that, they'll get low and eventually one of them will die and sooner or later, all of them will die. That's what i do, and it sure as hell helped me.
8:50 Lullaby potion has the effect of potentially instantly Ko a opponent when applied to weapons. Personally I found it better to use stinger and stab enemies in rhe face while using Lullaby or bane. If I recall stinger has the strongest pierce damage out of swords and against enemies whos face is mainly open, its perfect to apply poison that way. Its about a 85% success rate when ambused. You still need to practice combat and up your skills but the method I use makes things much easier. Also the end game goal is to survive. So using a mace with head cracker perfect to do instant Ko is fine as well.
This game is amazing once you understand the combat mechanics...I have been playing this game 4 days and I have not even s scratch the surface yet...but I love it it amazing game.... Thank you warhorse studio.
The fundamental missundestanding that ppl have about fighting multiple oponents is that you shoudnt do it if you are not very good with the mechanics, the game has very few mandatory group fights and optional ones are on your term always. And realisticly speaking,is almost imposible to fight groups irl if the skill difference is not huge.
Thanks man! I followed a really nice detailed guide through the game and did a toooon of cheesing. I honestly forgot about Bernard. So master striking and all that never came to my mind. I’m ready to get my sword play right now!
There is a tactical advantage to wearing light armor. Besides dodging, it also lets you run faster and farther than men in full plate, who will quickly run out of stamina in a chase. Often my strategy if I'm caught without a horse but I'm wearing armor is to run away from them, get some distance, even let them give up the chase, and then turn back and take them one by one.
6:30 in that mission I made deal with them, that they will watch me and not fight me and all I had to do was get on my horse ride away and it didn't even make me engage in a fight, anyways very nice video!
I use my bow on horse back, i run away a bit and let them chase me, fire the bow, retreat fire, retreat fire, retreat fire. Works very well on open ground or lightly brushed areas, so long as you dont run too far or they will loose interest. Obviously in a tightly packed forest this doesn't work so well as its more awkward to navigate on horse back.
The scene that drops you in the middle of 4 people really told me that there was a correct way to play this game and a wrong way. Apparently a horse archer would casually let 4 infantry approach him without mounting up…still, the game has no AI counter to a horse archer. Those heavy infantrymen will trot all day in the open field trying to catch you on your horse with your bow…
I never got the hang of fighting multiple enemies at once. I never know where to _look._ The reticle in the middle shows the time window for a perfect block - and the tutorials teach me to watch it closely - but keeping an eye on *that* all the time gives me no attention left to follow the _movement_ of the enemies and what swings they are preparing.
I have spent 2k on armor. That didn't help. 21hrs in and mobs take me out in 4 whacks. No time to even get off a combo. Gotta practice. Think I'll be able to take mobs on once I get this mechanic u discussed down. Great vid.
IMHO trying to do combos against mobs is a bad idea. Just because you're comboing one guy doesn't mean his buddy can't whack you from behind at the same time. Try to get perfect blocks when you can, otherwise just hit and move never stop moving. There's a lot of good advice in this thread. But the best advice I can give is use any advantage you have and don't be afraid to run. This game can be punishing and there's no shame in making it easier on yourself instead of getting frustrated and quitting.
Using combos against an opponent while fighting an entire group will not work,because they'll surround Henry and take turns hitting him. They'll most likely interrupt you before you land your 2nd hit,that is if the one you're facing doesn't perfect block or counter. Master strikes+follow up is the only way.
combos are pretty useless at high level, enemy will perfect block most of your hit (even feint), the combat system is pretty bad because of this, you just end up doing a masterstrikes battle and it takes a lot of time
Thx for the Vid =) Your always so informative im glad i found you. if its ok i would ask to make a video about guards and their behavior because i wanted to max my speach skill by talking to the guard but they dont bother me as often as they did before =(
You can boost Speech from the guards by intentionally getting caught pickpocketing someone or picking a lock. Surrender,then pass the speech check for xp. Drink bard potion to be safe before doing it.
6:50 Are you sure? Because I tried it with Bernard and when compared with heavy armour, light or no armour made strikes significantly faster, making combos much easier. At least it felt like it
guide: i still can solo privaslavit but i have to change the way i play the game. for those who haven't played the game in years, nah the enemy definitely got stronger and i love it. the game changed. back then i can easily rush in and solo privaslavit camp by myself i think the game patched, enemy are now capable of easily breaking ur combo and counter you. sword or longsword with high stab are important against all enemy type. mace are great at endgame. shield in this game is a great nerf so don't carry one. it's a pity i love shieldsss most repostle/counter without a shield are pain/deadly, with a shield they give you alot of lame repostle that does no dmg. so guys to fight multipkle enemy if you can't use bow for some reason to thin their numbers. you really must create a small distance force them to attack then you repostle/counter them and follow up by a hammer bonk/high stab to the face. take them out 1by1
i am very bad at hitting enemies from horseback, so i just ride the enemies over. even with bad horse (sorry pebbles) the enemies often dont survive getting hit by horse twice. I was able to wipe out whole prebyslavitz (or even rattay) this way killing every enemy by just taunting them and ride back and forth. Horses are just OP
I am ignorant of the various "layers" of clothing and armor that make up an entire "set." I have snooped around for insight, but haven't found much to help. Does anyone know of a good discussion or video on this? Right know I just hover over items and see what slot it lights up and make sure I put a better piece on as I gather them.
Easy if you’re not good at combat go spend one two hours with captain Bernard OR just ride to skalitz there is usually a party of talmberg soldiers fighting bandits just look their armor and you’ll make around 15k best to invest in a better sadle though
Peacock-Farrell is awful, I feel like the next big purchase should be a top tier keeper who can play sweeper and work as an option for the team to keep possession. PF is always a worry. when he receives the ball I am always worried and on Saturday that first goal was an example of why he doesn't give me confidence. Also the second goal and the Wrexham goal shows that he isn't dominant enough in his own area. The next buy in should be a goalie. perhaps we hit up Butland for a return
just started playin the game a couple days ago in prep for 2 coming out and I enjoy the combat but it feels like its almost never correct to attack but instead just block/master strike. I have tried doing combos and such but the enemies just parry or master strike back and hit you so it just seems wrong to ever engage. Is this something that changes or am i missing something major? If this is the case that seems very unfortunate. For example, I ended up going back to skalitz at level 6 and there were some big boys in full gear and i tried fighting them straight up 3 times and they just parried me to death but then I went at it and never attacked and they died fairly easy. and the same with the first time I ran into the bandits on the Ginger quest. Fight and die, block and win.
I like this games combat system until I have to fight more than one enemy at a time. Easily the biggest draw back of this whole game was the surprisingly unfun multi enemy combat system.
I'm in my first playtrough on the Nintendo Switch. Earlygame i got Mut, the buchersdog, he realy helped out esecialy when my sword mastery and strenght was low and he could attack enemies.
What games economy? U visit ur old village after kuman killed all then u kill them-->take loot-->leave village for a moment-->go in again--> kumans respawn :) PROFIT
They need to get rid of the one on one combat for Kingdom Come Two. It's not a good implementation especially when you're expected to fight multiple NPC's at the same time. Say what you want about "getting good or having skill". That's a bullshit argument. There's no fighting multiple targets simultaneously when you're forced to lock onto your target and the NPCs are constantly running behind you to get a cheap shot.
I think thats the whole point. In real life absolutely nobody can fight multiple cutthroats by yourself. KCD is aiming for a little bit of realism after all. Thats the whole campaign behind the game. So im sure even in KCD 2 they will also make it just as tough. Rather than "git gud" the dev defo want to make sure players have to think twice about such situation.
Fast traveling, get ambushed, 3 cumans, 2 guys one with a shield, regular with a longsword, another one with a bow and a dog. I'm at the point of believing it's just completely impossible to deal with that. Can't run because the dog will catch up and pretty much take away all of your stamina, can't get on a horse because they run too fast or bowmen shoots you. You literally can't do anything about it other than just reload a save and go somewhere else
The problems with being outnumbered in KCD isnt even the same problem uou have with fors in other games. The problem is, as soon as you are dealing with more than 2 enemies they suddenly gain the ability to ohase through you, your horse, uour dog, and eachother. This means you can be standing in an alleyway and still get flanked. And if you are running, they instantly teleport b ehind you and tackle you. Same thing haooens on horsback, they suddenly gain the ability to teleport 40 meters. If only there was a mod that enforced a collision in a cerrain radius around entities engaged in combat. By the way this video is mostly useless, if bandits are camping you can run around the camp with stinger and stab them all to death before they can even stand up. Getting rid of archers first makes jo sense, as when they are behind an enemy they will actually shoot them. Nothing in this video helps with failing to avoid an ambush while traveling, you will get knocked off your horse in the dark and killed before you can stand up, get your torch up, or do much of anything at all. I love this game but God do I hope they fix large encounters in the sequel

I love that there’s still content coming out on this great game
My best fighting strategy is finding the high ground. Like a rock then start throwing piercing arrows like a machinegun.

Use environment and buildings, if you stand in a corner you can have them in your view and just masterstrike.

i think the game patched, enemy are now capable of easily breaking ur combo and counter you.
sword or longsword with high stab are important against all enemy type.
mace are great at endgame.
shield in this game is a great nerf so don't carry one. it's a pity i love shieldsss
most repostle/counter without a shield are pain/deadly, with a shield they give you alot of lame repostle that does no dmg.
so guys
to fight multipkle enemy if you can't use bow for some reason to thin their numbers. you really must create a small distance force them to attack then you repostle/counter them and follow up by a hammer bonk/high stab to the face.
take them out 1by1

Fight and die, block and win.

Instead of poison use poison drinking water
Yeah, finally downloaded a mod that nerfed their blocking and parrying. Really helped a lot became the combat system in this game sucks.
For camps attacking at night is simple because they are all unarmed. The downside is that you can't loot those gears directly off their body...

Getting rid of archers first makes jo sense, as when they are behind an enemy they will actually shoot them.
Nothing in this video helps with failing to avoid an ambush while traveling, you will get knocked off your horse in the dark and killed before you can stand up, get your torch up, or do much of anything at all.
I love this game but God do I hope they fix large encounters in the sequel
