Stealth is a crucial method for completing certain tasks in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, and it's essential for navigating the "Storm" quest effectively. If you're aiming to complete "Storm," stealth becomes not just a strategy, but a necessity.

How To Start 'Storm' in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

The "Storm" quest serves as a pivotal point, wrapping up the main quests in the Trosky Region and setting the stage for your journey into the Kuttenberg Region. Much like "For Whom the Bell Tolls," you'll find yourself in a challenging situation at the outset. You won't have access to your usual armor, weapons, or essential items like Saviour Schnapps, and your health will be compromised due to prior torture, which also affects your stamina.

Your first move should be to equip yourself with gear from the guards that Katherine dispatched while rescuing you from prison. Though not top-tier, this gear is better than none. Katherine also provides you with her dagger, enabling stealth kills. Your next objective is to reach the top of the Crone in Trosky, carefully avoiding or incapacitating the guards along the way through stealth or distractions.

At the summit, you'll confront Istvan Toth. This encounter won't affect the quest's ultimate outcome, so if direct combat feels risky given your low health, consider taking a less honorable approach. After dealing with Toth, scour the room for everyone's belongings and crucial documents.

After neutralizing Toth and retrieving your gear, head back to the dungeon where you left your companions. They'll gear up, and you'll learn about the escape tunnels. Simply follow them to make this part of the quest straightforward.

The next phase of "Storm" can be particularly challenging. You need to minimize your conspicuousness to evade the guards, who are quick to alert others if they spot you. With your stats weakened from torture, stealth attacks are more difficult.

Begin by taking the right path uphill. This leads to a larger path frequented by patrolling guards, but it's the way to reach Mika, who's been captured. Stealthily approach from behind to deal with the guard and free Mika, who will then guide you to your next objective.

Now, prepare for a prolonged stealth segment. Follow the markers on your map as per Mika's instructions, heading towards the edge of the region. Travel east and southeast to reach the main road in Apollonia, then move south while sticking to the sides and using bushes for cover. You'll only need to traverse about halfway through the marked area to trigger the concluding cutscene. Use stones to distract guards as necessary. Once the cutscene starts, your part in "Storm" ends, leading you to the Kuttenberg Region.

"Storm" is unique in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2* as it mandates stealth rather than offering it as an option. Prioritizing stealth skill development before this quest can significantly aid in remaining undetected.
