Maintaining a clean appearance in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 significantly impacts NPC interactions and quest outcomes. Neglecting hygiene results in negative perceptions and reduced persuasion success. Here's how to maintain Henry's cleanliness:

Why Cleanliness Matters in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

A clean Henry garners positive reactions, improving dialogue options and quest progression. Dirt and blood negatively affect your charisma and speech skills, hindering persuasion checks, even with high skill levels.

Cleaning Methods in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

The game offers three primary cleaning methods:

Troughs:

Commonly found in towns and outposts, troughs offer a basic clean. Interact with a trough to remove some dirt and blood from Henry's person, but not his clothes.

Bathing Spots:

Located near larger bodies of water (e.g., rivers, ponds – one example is west of the Nomads’ and Cumans’ Camps in the Trotsky region), bathing spots provide a slightly more thorough clean than troughs, affecting both Henry and his clothes, though not completely.

Bathhouses:

For the most effective cleaning, visit a bathhouse (usually in larger towns). A small Groschen fee is required, but it provides the most comprehensive clean, removing all dirt and blood from Henry and his clothing. Regular bathhouse visits are recommended.
