Navigating the choices in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 can be tricky, especially during side quests. This guide focuses on the Post Scriptum quest and whether you should aid the miners.
Initiating Post Scriptum:
This side quest becomes available upon reaching Kuttenberg. Find Kvyertsolav at the tavern west of the city and initiate the quest by speaking with him. You'll be tasked with writing a letter for the miners. The phrasing of the letter doesn't significantly impact the outcome.
The Letter and its Consequences:
After writing the letter, the miners will attempt to harm you. A successful Speech check allows you to de-escalate the situation.
Choosing Your Path:
After surviving the miner's attack, you face a crucial decision:
-
Turning in the Miners: You can hand the miners over to the baliff, ending the quest and receiving a paltry 100 groschen. This is not the ideal outcome.
-
Delivering the Letter to Markold: This is the recommended path. Speak with Markold's bodyguard to gain access to Markold. Avoid blackmailing Markold; the Speech check is difficult and results in a premature quest end.
Aiding Markold or the Miners:
-
Helping Markold: This involves killing three miners, yielding a meager 60 groschen – the least rewarding option.
-
Supporting the Miners: Give Markold the letter as instructed. He'll provide a small sum (seven groschen) and direct you to meet miners north of the city. Assist the miners in defeating Markold. This results in a reward of 160 groschen and a more satisfying conclusion, improving the miners' working conditions.
In summary, helping the miners offers the best reward and a more morally sound resolution to the Post Scriptum quest in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. For further game insights, including advice on other quests and romance options, consult additional resources.
