11 hours ago 22

Like real life, money makes the world go round in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. Acquiring coins will be challenging initially, but there are a few ways to quicken the process. Here’s what you need to do to make Groschen fast in KCD2.

Best methods to make money fast in KCD2

The start of your KCD2 adventures can be pretty rough, especially since you’re left with little to no money. At the beginning of my journey, I made many mistakes when attempting to earn coins, often leaving me with a hot ball of nothing through certain techniques. But, after a while, I finally started to find my groove using a few handy methods. For a quick overview, you can utilize the following techniques to make money fast in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2:

  • Go on a stealing spree
  • Complete the Cabbage Thief quest
  • Win in fistfighting competitions
  • Play and win dice games
  • Find treasure maps and uncover valuables
  • Complete side quests
  • Unlock Perks

Since the methods above are slightly challenging, I’ll break them all down to help you understand them better.

Go on a stealing spree

Stealing and robbing is the quickest way to make Groschen fast, but it’s not without risks. If you’re caught, you’ll likely need to spend money to get out of trouble. Or, go the violent route and attack the guard who’s got ahold of you. However, you can always save and quit before attempting a robbery, allowing you to try again if things go wrong.

It’s also a good idea to choose the Scout playstyle, as it will help with sneaky maneuvers. Plus, you can boost your stealth skill by exchanging the Perk Points you’ll earn throughout your playthrough. Another tactic I like to do is to wait for nighttime and rob someone while they’re sleeping. That way, you don’t have to worry about any watchful eyes.

Complete the Cabbage Thief quest

If you want to make a lot of money early on in the game, you can talk to Bailiff Thrush at the starter town, Troskowitz. He’ll tell you about a cabbage thief who’s been robbing a Grocer (to the left of Semine). All you need to do is follow the trail of cabbages and turn in the thief to claim the money. You don’t even need to initiate any combat since the robber doesn’t put up a fight.

Win in fistfight competitions

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 has its own version of a fight club in Lower Semine Mill. Speak to Miller Kreyzl about it to unlock this unique feature.

Talk to Hensel to begin the fistfighting competition, where you’ll have to wager 10 Groschen each time. It’s a small price you have to pay to earn more money later on. Defeat Hensel, Malik, and Vira for a total of 60 Groschen.   

Return to Miller Kreyzl to unlock the Zhelejov fistfights. Fortunately, Miller will pay the entry fee this time, giving you 150 Groschen. You can take this money and be on your way or use it to participate in the Zhelejov fights.

If you want to make extra money, go to Zhelejov Wagoners’ Inn  (to the left of Troskowitz). Talk to the Innkeeper Lawrence to begin the Wine, Women, and Blood quest for 100 Groschen. You’ll also need to speak to Bathhouse Owner Dorothy and convince her to let Fiala fight. Additionally, you can talk to Bathwench Anna near Dorothy to get an extra reward after knocking out Bohunek.

Now, it’s time to defeat Hannes, Bohunek, and Fiala to earn 60 Groschen in total (exchange 10 Groschen to begin each one). Remember to talk to Bathwench Anna to replenish your health and sew your clothing for free. Then, talk to the Innkeeper Lawrence to get 200 Groschen. You’ll unlock the last fighter, the Trosky Grandmaster, who will be above Trosky Castle. Although this mission doesn’t provide you with Groschen, you can go there to pick up a new skill teacher.

Play and win dice games

You can discover dice tables in almost every major Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 settlement. The goal here is to earn plenty of dice combinations, whether with multiples of the same number or a straight (like poker). Similar to the robbing technique, you can save beforehand to keep your money intact if things don’t go as planned. This method is heavily luck-based, but it can give you a lot of money when you come out victorious.

Find treasure maps

Speak to various NPCs, like Innkeepers or merchants, to get hints about the game’s many treasure maps. Enemies can carry these maps, too, but you’ll need to take them down to loot them from their bodies. Sometimes, the treasure maps can lead to valuable gear, including the Lion’s Crest Bonus Quest. While missions like these don’t give you too much money, you can at least save yourself from spending Groschen on equipment.

Complete side quests

Considering that Main Quests usually take up a lot of your time, opt for the Side Quests to get more bang for your buck. Objectives like the Jaunt and Bad Blood provide Groschen, which you can complete early on in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. I recommend just exploring around the map to see what side adventures you unlock. Depending on your luck, you may find one that gives you a significant amount of Groschen.

Unlock Perks

Specific Perks increase how much money you’ll make when selling items to a merchant. For instance, the Alchemy Skill’s Potion Seller offers a 30 percent sell boost when exchanging the potions you’ve brewed. You can also use the On the Poacher’s Trail Survival Skill to sell herbs, game, hides, and trophies for double the price.
