Maintaining a clean appearance in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 significantly impacts how NPCs perceive and interact with you, influencing quest outcomes. This guide details how to bathe and clean yourself within the game.
Why Cleanliness Matters
A dirty or bloody appearance negatively affects NPC interactions. Even with high Speech skills, grime reduces charisma and persuasion effectiveness. Cleanliness improves your chances of successful dialogue and information gathering.
Cleaning Methods
Three primary methods exist for cleaning yourself: troughs, bathing spots, and bathhouses.
Troughs
Commonly found in towns and outposts, troughs offer a basic cleaning option. Interacting with a trough cleanses Henry's face, removing some dirt and blood, but leaves clothing unaffected.
Bathing Spots
Located near larger bodies of water (rivers, ponds), bathing spots provide a more thorough clean than troughs. Submerging yourself partially cleans both Henry and his clothing, though not completely. An example is found west of the Nomads’ and Cumans’ Camps in the Trotsky region.
Bathhouses
For the most effective cleaning, visit a bathhouse (usually found in larger towns). A small Groschen fee is required. Bathhouses provide the most thorough clean, removing all dirt and blood from Henry and his clothing, ensuring a pristine appearance. Regular bathhouse visits are recommended.
