Master Strike Unveiled: Unleash Its Power in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2

Master the Master Strike in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 for effortless combat! This powerful move significantly simplifies combat, especially in the early game. Here's how to unlock and utilize it:

Unlocking the Master Strike:

The Master Strike isn't immediately available. After completing the initial tutorial and gaining access to the open world, locate Bara the beggar in Troskowitz. She'll direct you to Tomcat, initiating the "Combat Training" side quest.

Find Tomcat at the Nomads' Camp (near the Cumans' Camp and Bozhena's Hut). Complete "Combat Training I," then save your game before attempting "Combat Training II." This second quest is considerably harder. Victory over Tomcat in "Combat Training II" rewards you with the Master Strike technique. Consider boosting your Strength stat beforehand to increase your chances of success. Saving before each attempt is crucial to avoid dire consequences from failure.

Utilizing the Master Strike:

The Master Strike is exclusive to sword combat. During a fight, observe your opponent's weapon stance. Position your sword opposite their weapon. For example, if they attack from the left, hold your sword to the right.

As your opponent strikes, a green shield icon will briefly appear centrally on the screen. Immediately press your attack button to execute the Master Strike. This perfectly parries the incoming attack and launches an unblockable counter-attack. Timing is key – ensure your sword is correctly positioned before initiating the attack.

The Master Strike is a game-changer in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, making many combat encounters significantly easier. Check out The Escapist for more game guides and strategies, including information on the Wandering Drunk and romance options.
