Mastering the Longsword in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2: A Guide to the Best Blades
Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 offers a diverse arsenal, but longswords stand out for their versatility, blending speed, power, and reach. This guide highlights the top longswords worth wielding, categorized for easier selection based on your skill level and playstyle.
Toledo Steel Sword
Forged from high-quality Toledo steel and reforged from a broken sword, this blade boasts impressive stats: 132 stab, 125 slash, and 25 blunt damage. Its relatively low Strength (12) and Agility (15) requirements make it an early-game powerhouse. High durability (159) and defense (194) ensure it endures lengthy battles. Acquired by completing "The Hermit" quest.
Balshan’s Sword
A legendary blade once owned by Sir Jan Posy of Zimburg, this weapon delivers devastating damage: 149 stab, 157 slash, and 24 blunt. However, its Strength (14) and Agility (20) requirements limit it to high-level characters. Excellent defense (225) and decent durability (120) make it a formidable choice for experienced swordsmen.
Blacksmith’s Defender
A practical, well-forged sword prioritizing combat effectiveness over flashy displays. While not the most powerful, its 75 stab, 86 slash, and 32 blunt damage make it a reliable mid-tier option. Low Strength (7) and Agility (9) requirements make it accessible early in the game. Its 126 defense and 99 durability provide solid protection.
Broad Longsword
This longsword's wider blade enhances durability (200) at the cost of swing speed. Its high damage output (166 stab, 158 slash, 32 blunt) compensates for this. Strength (16) and Agility (19) are required, making it suitable for experienced fighters. Exceptional defense (246) ensures its effectiveness in prolonged combat. Purchasable from Blacksmith Zdimir in Grund or forgeable with specific materials.
Dry Devil’s Longsword
A finely crafted weapon ideal for swift, precise strikes. It delivers 157 stab, 150 slash, and 30 blunt damage. Its Strength (15) and Agility (18) requirements make it a weapon for skilled swordsmen who value technique over raw power.
Godwin’s Longsword
Similar to the Dry Devil's Longsword, but with more balanced stats. It offers 129 stab, 123 slash, and a notably high 73.8 blunt damage. It requires Strength (16) and Agility (18) and boasts impressive defense (220) and durability (200), making it a strong contender for dueling.
Hanush’s Sword
Designed for skillful swordplay, this thin, well-balanced blade deals 166 stab, 158 slash, and 32 blunt damage. Its Strength (16) and Agility (19) requirements make it a weapon for skilled duelists. Its effectiveness can be further enhanced through a quest.
Henry’s Longsword & Henry’s Sword Reforged
A historically significant weapon, originally forged by Henry's father. The original version offers 149 stab, 142 slash, and 28 blunt damage, with Strength (14) and Agility (17) requirements. The reforged version significantly boosts these stats and durability, but demands higher Strength (20) and Agility (23).
Kuttenberg Longsword
A top-tier weapon crafted by Master Enderlin, delivering 166 stab, 158 slash, and 32 blunt damage. Its Strength (16) and Agility (19) requirements reflect its power.
Lord Capon’s Longsword
Statistically similar to Henry’s Longsword (149 stab, 142 slash, 28 blunt), this sword is better suited for skillful dueling. It requires Strength (14) and Agility (17). Its exact location remains unclear.
