Summary
InKingdom Come: Deliverance 2, swords are one of themost prominent and easy-to-find weaponsthat players can stumble upon almost anywhere. That said, pinpointing the best of the best out of simple rusty iron can be a little bit harder than it seems, especially because of how vast the collection of swords in the game actually is.
Here is a rundown on thebestKingdom Come: Deliverance 2swordsfor the rising knights out there trying to make a living in the lands of Bohemia, with details about their specs, where to find them, and what makes them the optimal choices for melee combat.
TheFalchionis the optimal weapon for fast skirmishes in enclosed spaces, ideal for urban combat, and deadly whencombined with the appropriate perks. Since it counts as a one-handed saber, it will benefit from the Cutting Edge Perk, which will aggravate the bleeding effects caused by these types of weapons.
It is also considered a light one-handed blade, and it is quite fast and deadly. Unfortunately, its durability isn’t all too great, and getting a good quality one won’t be possible until the late-game stages. Still, it is a magnificent weapon in the right hands.
TheAtaman’s Sabreis a long curved blade that can cause severe damage to opponents. It is a slow, heavy blade, but when wielded properly, it causes extreme damage to large groups of enemies, making them bleed profusely, since it benefits from the Cutting Edge Perk.
Finding a good quality one won’t be possible until the endgame, but if players feel comfortable with a little handicap in damage, they will find this Sabre to be a sturdy and reliable companion during most of the encounters in the game.
TheMilitary Swordis a standard blade that can befound in most Blacksmith shopsin the game and is wielded by most of the soldiers and guards found in Trosky. It is a decent weapon, boasting good speed and balance, and it does decent pierce/slash damage, too.
It has a slightly worse overall status than the Knight’s Sword, and less reach, but it is also easier to find and can be crafted early on. Henry’s version of this blade (crafted with the Martin’s Secret Perk) is an absolute beast and one of thebest weapons inKingdom Come: Deliverance 2.
TheKnight’s Swordis the improved version of the Military Sword, and it has better durability and also an improved pierce/slash/blunt damage ratio. On top of that, it can be found in better qualities than the former.
It is also possible tocraft one of these bladesand take it to Tier 4 if players are good enough with the Blacksmithing mini-game. The better this blade is in quality, the better its properties. It is a strong option for those looking to get good at one-handed dueling.
TheBattle Longswordis the Knight’s best friend, especially in timeswhen bandits prowl the forestsand plague the roads. This two-handed blade can cut through the highest grades of armor and pierce plate as if it were cardboard.
On the downside, masteringthe art of Two-Handed sword fightingcan be a little bit difficult, as the combos are slower and harder to chain. It is easy to be overwhelmed by enemies using swords and boards, axes, or spears.
TheBroadswordis one of the strongest weapons inKingdom Come: Deliverance 2, and the best part is that it can be found early on whilecompleting the search for Mutt, one of the first main quests in the game (inside the Wolves' den).
It’s strong, fast, powerful, and the best sword to pair up with the Knight’s Shield. The combination of sword and board is deadly, and with the Broadsword equipped, it becomes even more lethal. This one-handed blade is the best option for purging large bandit groups from the face of Bohemia.
TheBasilardis a Roman short blade and the fastest one-handed weapon in the game. It has a decent slashing/piercing damage ratio and lower blunt damage than most blades, since its pommel is smaller and less heavy.
It benefits frommost of the Perks in the Sword tree, and since it is a reliable option for dueling, it is also good when paired with small shields like theCuman Shield. It’s great for urban combat missions and wreaking havoc in man-versus-man duels.
With the highest reach, slashing, and piercing damage of all the bladed weapons inKingdom Come: Deliverance 2,Radzig Kobyla’s Longswordis the strongest sword Henry will wield during his adventure. Though getting his hands on it willrequire a long and treacherous journey, once it is in his hands, he will become nearly unstoppable.
This Two-Handed sword is fast, deadly, and comes with an improved version that can be crafted when Craftmanship reaches level 26. Though forging it will require lots of time and effort, it is worth it to have thebest sword in theKingdom Come: Deliverance 2.
