How to Make Fever Tonic in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2

In the main quest "For Whom the Bell Tolls" in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, Hans needs your assistance once again, this time at Trosky Castle. Your initial task is to harness the power of alchemy to save someone by crafting Fever Tonic. Here's a comprehensive guide on how to make this essential potion.

Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 Fever Tonic Recipe Location

The recipe for Fever Tonic can be found in the Surgeon's Workshop within Trosky's Castle. There are two main ways to access this workshop. The first method involves sneaking in discreetly. The second method is more diplomatic: you can persuade the chamberlain by offering to make him a digestive potion to ease his stomach troubles, which will grant you access to the workshop.

If you prefer not to sneak, proceed with the "For Whom the Bell Tolls" quest by delivering the horseshoe. After that, head back to the forge and speak with Cook Fanka. If you offer to help her with her locked chest, she'll guide you to the noble's kitchen. Upon entering the kitchen, you'll find the chamberlain in distress. Engage him in conversation about his health and successfully pass skill checks to convince him of your ability to help. This will not only allow you access to the Surgeon's Workshop but also, if you craft and bring him a digestive potion along with the Fever Tonic, earn you an introduction to Thomas.

If your skill checks fail, you'll need to resort to thievery. Steal some food, exit the kitchen, and make your way to the opposite side of the courtyard. There, you'll find a staircase leading to a door on your right. This door leads to another kitchen where a guard is posted. Offer him the stolen food, and he'll leave, allowing you to sneak upstairs to the Surgeon's Workshop. Inside, locate the physician's journal on the bookshelf, read it, and use the station in the room to brew your potions.

How to Brew Fever Tonic

Brewing the Fever Tonic is straightforward as the necessary herbs are already laid out on the surgeon's station. Open your book to the page on Fever Tonicum and follow these steps:

• Pour wine into the cauldron.
• Add 3 handfuls of Feverfew.
• Lower the cauldron and boil for 2 turns of the sandglass.
• Grind a handful of Elderberry Leaves with the mortar and pestle.
• Add the ground Elderberry Leaves.
• Add 2 handfuls of Ginger.
• Retrieve a phial from the bottom left shelf of the station, under the wine.
• Distill the tonic using the Still.

Don't worry if your first attempt fails; you have ample herbs at your disposal, and more can be found in the chest in the room. Given your prior experience with potion-making, crafting the Fever Tonic should be manageable.

Once you've successfully brewed the Fever Tonic, your next step is to reach Thomas. If you've earned the chamberlain's trust by also crafting a digestive potion for him, return to him with both potions. If not, use the noble's kitchen to sneak up to the chapel where you'll find Thomas and his sister, Adele. Converse with Adele to complete the quest.
