Stealth plays a crucial role in completing certain quests in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, and the "Storm" quest is a prime example where sneaking is not just an option but a necessity. If you're looking to successfully navigate through this mission, mastering the art of stealth is essential.
How To Start 'Storm' in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
The "Storm" quest serves as a pivotal point, transitioning you from the Trosky Region to the Kuttenberg Region. As you embark on this quest, you'll find yourself in a dire situation, stripped of your armor, weapons, and even Saviour Schnapps, and weakened by prior torture. However, hope isn't lost—Katherine's intervention allows you to gear up with basic equipment from defeated guards. She also provides you with her dagger, enabling stealth kills. Your journey leads you to the top of the Crone in Trosky, where you must navigate past scattered guards using stealth, distractions, or knockouts.
At the peak, you confront Istvan Toth. Given your compromised state, choosing a dishonorable path might be the safest route to proceed without risking a fatal duel. After dealing with Toth, scour the area to reclaim your belongings and gather critical documents.

After resolving matters with Toth, head back to the dungeon to reunite with your companions. They'll equip their gear and guide you through escape tunnels, simplifying this segment of the quest.

The true test of your stealth skills comes as you navigate the hills. With your visibility needing to be as low as possible to evade detection, this part can be challenging. Your weakened state due to torture makes stealth kills and knockouts more difficult. Begin by taking the right path, which leads uphill and eventually to a larger, guard-patrolled route. Your goal here is to reach Mika, who's been captured. Stealthily approach the guard, eliminate him, and rescue Mika to secure your next objective.

The final stretch involves a prolonged period of stealth. Follow Mika's directions on your map, heading east and southeast towards Apollonia's main road. Keep to the fringes and use bushes for cover to stay out of sight from patrolling guards. You'll only need to reach roughly the midpoint of the marked area to trigger the concluding cutscene. Utilize distractions like throwing stones to slip past guards undetected. Once the cutscene plays, your journey in the Trosky Region ends, and you'll soon find yourself in the Kuttenberg Region.
In *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, "Storm" stands out as a quest where stealth is not just an advantage but a requirement. Prioritizing stealth skill development before tackling this mission can significantly enhance your chances of success.
