Knocking Out Enemies in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2
Creating a trail of corpses isn't always ideal in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*. Sometimes neutralizing opponents discreetly serves better. Here's the proper technique:
Crouch by pressing Circle, then approach undetected from behind. When close enough, a Knock Out prompt appears in the bottom-right corner. Activate it, then watch for a blue sword icon - pressing R2 at this moment delivers the knockout blow. Should the target resist, a shield icon appears; quickly press L2 to subdue them.
Failing both timing prompts alerts the NPC, likely triggering combat.
Success depends on Henry's Strength versus the target's resilience. Consider these useful perks:
- Tight Grip
- Sandman
Both perks significantly improve stealth takedown success rates.
How to Stealth Kill Enemies
For permanent silent solutions, equip a dagger. The approach mirrors knockout attempts - sneak behind targets while armed, and a stealth kill prompt will appear.
