Maintaining a clean appearance is crucial in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. Your hygiene directly impacts NPC interactions and quest outcomes. A dirty or bloodied appearance hinders persuasion, even with high Speech skills. Here's how to achieve cleanliness in the game:
Why Cleanliness Matters in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
Cleanliness significantly influences how NPCs perceive and react to you. A soiled appearance makes conversations difficult and reduces your chances of success in persuasion checks.
How to Clean Yourself in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
The game offers three primary methods for cleaning: troughs, bathing spots, and bathhouses.
Troughs
Commonly found in towns and outposts, troughs provide a basic clean. Interact with a trough to wash away some dirt and blood, but this method doesn't clean your clothing.
Bathing Spots
Located near larger bodies of water (rivers, ponds), bathing spots offer a slightly more thorough clean than troughs. Submerging yourself partially cleans both your skin and clothing, though not completely.
Bathhouses
Bathhouses, usually found in larger towns, provide the most effective cleaning. For a small fee (Groschen), you'll receive a complete clean, removing all dirt and blood from both your character and your clothes. Regular visits to a bathhouse are recommended for optimal cleanliness.
