What a story...trying to make it to a million - legally: starts off with cheating at gambling with sided dice, tries out poaching (outside of quest), then dips into the legal ventures of archery contests and lawenforcement only to find out that this is very cumbersome to do and earns little money for the required effort. Finally ends up cooking drugs...guess things havent really changed in the past centuries :D
Came here to say the same thing 🤣🤣 "let's make a million legally!! My first act of business in this legal journey to fame and fortune? Breaking and entering, assault, theft, and cheating!"
Something that happened to me 2 days ago: Grind alchemy to level 10 for 5 irl hours Go sell the potions Game crashes immediately when i talk to the vendor Lose 7 hours of gameplay
Not on hardcore. I started a new hardcore save and didn't save my game at all as i was used to the autosave. Got all the way to rattay and got killed by a group of cumans on my way to uzhitz (so i could learn to read again) and got sent all the way back to the main menu as i didn't have any aaved games
@Just_a_Piano_ not as severe, but it happened to me. Was leaving Talmberg to revisit skahlitz. Got killed by the cagey green fuck bc I forgot I can pull my sword to scare him, back to the beginning for me
And then you lift all their money from their chest and they don't go out of business or comment on it really. The game flip flops between immersion and utter insanity all the time and you need to stop yourself from completely braking it.
I love sneaking valuable Armor I took off bandits into the Talberg Tavern keeper's chest. He sells it overnight and suddenly has 17 thousand Groschen. Obviously, I get a share too. 100% of it as I leave more Armor and book it.
@@Totallynotkyubey LOL i never thought about that. just give them all your stuff for free, they turn it into money, and you take said money from their chest hahahaha im gonna try that
That one is really nice, hunting isn't as profitable as alchemy but usually when I go out to collect herbs I tend to shoot down a few animals too as to get my mind with atleast doing something fun and to get extra money from the butcher
@@Fushurururu i do believe you can hunt for hare and sell the meat with impunity permanently. but for the fun hunting (as in pieces of game you can actually hit) you do need the appointment to what must be called something like Master Hunter of Talmberg in the english version (it's actually Jägermeister in the german version)
Important note with alchemy. When you have the trial and error perk you can generally just throw all of the ingredients into the pot finish it. No need to grind them up or heat up the water.
@@sweatyvetter I just checked. The marigold decotion can be done without the perk. With the perk you get 3 potions. So that probably makes leveling alchemy 3x as fast.
@@et71179for the merhojed quest I had to do the steps 100% accurate... I brewed like 3 or 4 pots and all of them were "no name potion" On my 5th try i finally realized, I threw in the coal to soon I'm not really patient. So yea the game is weird, maybe at a certain alchemy level you can have more errors, I was only 2 or 3 at alchemy.
8:01 Uhm, if you auto-brew and quickly turn the page of the book, you stay focussed on it. Saves about second each time. Since we're all typically brewing a couple dozen to a couple hundred potions for money, that saves minutes.
You can actually do one better. If you are quick enough at hitting the auto brew button when you're reading the alchemy book you will craft 6 instead of 3 potions (in the case of the marigold one at least). Doing this also significantly shortens the animation. It makes crafting stupidly fast!
Discovered this channel while looking for KCD2 news and wasn't disappointed. Awesome and entertaining video, I ended up watching all the way through. I'm surprised you don't have more subscribers. I subbed.
Legal way I made 1,000,000 for fun was riding between Pribyslavitz and Skalitz, selling the bandit loot. I did took guard armor which wasn't mark stolen after a minute and I stole 600,000 from the armorer to get to the mil faster, but without that last 2 it's definitely possible and fast to make legally Edit after Watching the entirety: took only about 3-4 hours at most. Other tip: few good Belladona spots I know grant 1500 Belladonas and nettles are everywhere. You can also hold F to autobrew twice which makes autobrewing even faster. Then selling the more expensive saviour schnapps. Definitely a great video and I love this channel, keep up the good work❤
@@shukthy when you look at the map east of Rovna, there is a pathway that separates in two and connects back together on the way to Talmberg. It makes sort of an Island, it's in that Island and around it
@@fasteddyuk Skalitz has well armored "knights" 10/10 times and riding to Prib to sell that loot couldn't be more convenient, as it takes just a minute or two
I made my million by farming silver bandit in Skalitz...you can knock down the nest outside of town or use the dig hole bags to store the loot...save in the bed in Skalitz and just ride up the north road to reset the bandit/guard/cumans spawn point in Skalitz. Then I rinsed repeated trips to the inn in Talmberg which will also buy anything and will increase the money the have each time. 😊 good to have options. I once stole 47 horses and had several farms set up so I share your unconventional play style. Nice video ..I enjoy it bunches!!!
I'm interested in how the 47 horses worked out. Do they not despawn or run away at some point? Can you actually keep them all in one place and where did you keep them? Pretty cool stuff.
@@valveguy4598 I don't think you can keep them (maybe with some mod?), in my experience they always disappear at a certain distance, I parked one close to the boar hunting spot NE of Sasau, was overloaded and walked to the butcher when I came back to get the horse it was gone and that isn't far at all.
If you hace the Ashes DLC, the northern village which you rebuild (and I refuse to pronounce it) can literally give you free momey with each passing day if you complete the reconstruction
This is a great way to do a video like this. You ask a question that realistically only takes a few seconds to answer, and you answer the question within the first few seconds. I cannot stand it when content creators force me to skip to the end of the video just to know the answer. Now I can enjoy watching the method for the next 12 minutes, thank you.
The archery contest level master has a trick if you have the crosshair. The sway is not random so you can place your crosshair where you know the arrow would hit the middle, and if you hold the clic to shoot, and NOT move the mouse, the crosshair will ALWAYS come back to the original place you put it. So basically you place your crosshair in the right spot, then NEVER move vyour mouse. Just hold, wait for the crosshair to come back and shoot. You'll hit the middle every single time.
yeah that kinda fucked me over early in my run lmao. i got *really* good at cheesing the archery contest (at least the one in rattay) but that didn't *actually* translate to me being good at archery in the wild lol.
The best way for me is selling bandit and cuman armor in Sasaau and Rattay, I get with every raid about 5 or 7 K per camp in weapons and armor, also the more you sell armor to a merchant the more money he makes. Master Ota in my game have like 50K everytime I go to him
Something I didnt see in the video is an interesting idea: If you are on the monk questline, you can legally take all the herbs in the chest each day you are disguised as a monk. Its a bit tedious to be a monk, but you get something like 60+ of each herb per day, with a few exceptions. Getting good at time skipping each day through your chores, you can net TONS of herbs over a few days. Break out through cellar to offload your herbs to the chest holding your stuff before you became a monk. You could get thousands of herbs with only a few hours of work.
Brother, you can double-click autobrew to get 2 sets of potions every time and it also cancels the book-closing animation. Not sure how many people know this
Did something like that while brewing Vitality potion (needs 1marigold and 2 dandelions) and selling it to everyone in market square. In few days I made 5-6 merchants rich enough to get a few thousands off them every day. Considering that bread and vegetable stalls had probably 5 or 10 groshen on day one.
Nice video.. from one kcd fan to another - good way to make money is farming equipment in Skalitz, when you enter the (I think) northeast gate, almost every time you'll see two groups fighting each other, whether it's bandits against Cumans, Cumans against guards etc. Just be careful about taking loot from guards as it's considered stealing. Often there are high level bandits in plated armor, which can be sold for a lot of money. But be careful, they're not that easily killed. When you load up your horse and yourself with all that valuable loot, head over to Peshek. You can either sell him the loot like a normal person, or do the other tactic.. which is lockpick his merchant chest, take all the money and put every piece of loot that you have in there. No matter how many items you put in there, he will "sell" it all and have all the money from it in the next couple of days. Could easily be tens of thousands. Have a good one!
Guys I found a way to improve this strat! Do everything he says, but instead of hunting everywhere for comfrey, only pick it from the bandit farm north of merjohed. Each time you pick it, you’ll get about 150 comfrey. Wait 4-5 in game days, and the comfrey will respawn. This is definitely the quickest. As an added bonus, the bandits will also respawn every 5 days and you can loot them each time after defeating them. Get all the valerian you need in just one run at neuhoff. So much fun!
With the marigold decoction you don’t even need to cook it just pour in the water add x2 marigold then add x1 nettle then pour into the vial. This method will nett you x3 marigold concoction even though you haven’t cooked it and also it’s important you add the x2 marigold first then the x1 nettle
Was just making potions and found out you can double autobrew for each animation cycle it takes to look at the book and back to normal stance, your timing has to be on point tho, not because youll miss your chance but solely because if you take too long on the second autobrew, Henry wil also flip the hour glass making it take a small bit longer
if you go hunting in Talmberg and build the huntsmans wealth and get a 4 saddlebag saddle, you can sell him 500 meat/trip and deer hunting spot is close to him
Or if you feel like being a reasonable and sane human being you can buy a horse and saddle with a good carry weight and go to a little path with a bridge on the far left of the path somewhere between sasau and rattay ride the path till you see a group of bandits cumans etc. Fighting have them cease vital functions "borrow" their equipment and sell it to the armoursmith and swordsmith and then relax at the tavern with a bottle of spirits and moonshine (alot more reasonable compared to grinding alchemy 13 since a longsword or polearm on horseback is stupid op) edit: ride back to the bridge then go back to where you saw the group fighting they respawn about 80% of the time
Haha, "borrow". I do prefer the "borrowing" of bandit's equipment to get rich. The real jazz you can do is put all the bandit's equipment into Miller Peshek's chest and wait for the NPC's inventory to reset. All those items will be gone, but their value will add to Peshek's groschen total, which you can go into the chest and pick up later on. This includes potions or anything else he would buy, so there is not multiple waiting, just one time waiting once you get the potions you need or whatever you want to flog ;)
@@helicalgoose pretty sure I remember hearing that items in your personal storage will not lose their stolen status so your best bet is just keeping them on your horse and bribing or persuading guards who bother you (reading is a worthwhile skill I swear) edit: or I can completely miss the point of your comment but whatever fun fact if you want to know
@@Raine98245 Ah the item do lose their stolen tags over awhile. I did some experiments on this awhile ago (and on the side have a video, but ill give the jist) In the game when things are stolen, every item has a value, and lets say for simplicity that an apple was stolen was worth 10 groschen, even if it was rotten or whatever. The game then looks at that item if you put in your bag and don't move it, it will start a count down timer. For every game hour that goes by, I want to say every stolen item loses 5-6 groschen off its stolen status. This means if you wait two hours the apple will no longer be consider stolen. So if something is worth 1000 groschen that is 200 game hours that would have to pass before it would lose the stolen status, which is a really long time. The kicker on that is that if you take an item out of the chest/pack and it was still consider stolen, the stolen timer restarts. Which gives the effect that stolen tag never goes away. It does, but its sooooo slow on valuable items. But as you mentioned, just bribe the guards for like what, 20-40 groschen and say screw it. That is the much better approach ;)
This works great even now on May 2024 thank you !! Is not as magic as you say but is true that giving the butcher more potions than she is able to pay (even a small quantity of potions) makes her finances to grow a lot! Every time I sell my potions to her she has more money in the next 2 days !
So you can make your own alternate ending where instead of going for revenge, Henry just says “well let bygones be bygones”, and buys his own castle full of mead, turkey legs, and twerking serf women. I like that.
I love alchemy. It's a nice and relaxing activity after many deadly combats. Also after you master it as a player and kniw it's perks, you basically get unlimited saves and never have to sleep ever again. The poisons and healing potions are nice too.
This is potion scheme is brilliant though :D It's funny that Warhorse went as far as to design the system so that a trader's wealth increases as you sell to them at a loss and they can then make a profit - but they didn't put in any market saturation. Like, to get to a million Groschen at 50 Groschen a pop, you had to sell the trader *twenty thousand* bottles of Lazarus potion 🤣 Even more actually, since in the beginning you didn't get as much cash from them, you had to buy your presentable clothes, AND you sold them more potions than they actually had cash for. So basically Rattay's butcher shop trader had to move like 30 000 Lazarus potions. Maybe they scored a contract with some royal armories around Europe or something! 😂
To make things like marigold potion, you don't need to boil the brew like it says. Just put in the ingredients and you're done. The only time you need to boil is if it calls for distilling. This should help some people get lvl 10/13 faster.
Another things that makes you lots of money is the rattay tourney you can make like 720 each tourney and you can just do time skips to get there, or if you really want you can just wait the week
Take all the busted gear to the armourer in rattay, repair it all through him, go upstairs and rob back everything you sold and his money and you’ll be rich in no time. Only problem with this game is that you actually don’t need to have money.
From over 1500 hours playing, I know the best way to make easy "leagl" money, is a Skalitz Bandit farm. 1. You can do it from the start, but a from the ashes armour smith will help. 2. Sell the first armours as cheap as possible, that makes the smith rich. 3. Farm the bandits, fight them ride to rowna crossing than ride back and they will spawn again. 4. A horse with high carry weight is good to have. If you are good in combat you will earn up to 8k groschen per run and and with a decent horse you can carry around 25k (in loot) groschen to the blacksmith. That can give you 100k groschen per hour. Depending on your play style even more.
ive found that if you steal from somewhere, (maybe steal everything from the swordsmith, and everything from the armoursmith) and then drop that into peshek's trunk where he holds his money and loot for trading, if you wait a while it turns it into straight groschen. dont have to take the long way and buy it off of him to get rid of the stolen status then sell etc etc, just turns into groschen. you have to wait a couple days for peshek to "Restock" which turns the items you dropped in his trunk into groschen. waiting that time should also restock the traders you stole from, meaning you can steal from them again. i made ~20k groschen in one run.
The fastest way I made money. During my quest to build the town I went back to skalitz. Usually I get beat up really bad or die. But this time I stood at the gate watch the battle between cumans and sometimes it was trader sometimes it was bandits. After they were done killing each other who ever was left I’d shoot arrows at them so they can chase me. I’m on horse so of course I have the upper hand. I get them away from town far enough that they just kind of stand around or disappear. I ride back into town a Loot the dead bodies. The traders don’t really have good gear to sell. But the bandits and cumins do it was the best hack ever since My Henry was still a weak. It helped me build the town fast and my income from there support my lavish lifestyle 🤴
The archery contest is actually pretty good for my tastes. I just find the center of my aim and keep a steady rhythm to my nocking and loosing. Easily outscoring the others by 20 points. I average at 60 - 65 points while they can only land enough for 40 - 46. The only hurdle is how long you can do it before having to wait for the contest to reopen if you're doing it all day. Otherwise, for me, this is as steady as it gets besides selling potions and waiting days for restock.
I think I confused the algo early on with my channel so YT is confused on who my Audience is. Haha! But thank you! I’ll have some more KCD content coming soon, so stay tuned :)
If you want to make leveling alchemy easier you can skip boiling on most recepisse and still get success. The Marigold decoction for example you just drop the herb into the water and you are done.
this game is very fun! i just bought it last week and cant stop playing it haha! btw can you do some videos on how to install mods on KCD? i want the removed animation when gathering herbs
Umm. I could… but @Sxybiscuit already has a great guide that I myself followed and the link I’ll leave here -> th-cam.com/video/fIslN5MFE94/w-d-xo.htmlsi=SSPfnKWy4yYpZ9s7 I hope that helps!
Sell a bunch of shit to them first best is the rattay blacksmith because he buys everything, sell him all the stupid gear or whatever even if he doesnt have any money to give check him in like 2 to 3 days hes going to have like 10 thousand or more when you only gave him 1000 worth of items thats when you get the REAL price for your items
i went to skalitz every morning. there was a fight everyday. rob every corpses' armors, store it to your horse (you can increase the maxd capacity. sell it to miller. But this is only worked at the early phase oh your journey.
This is so OP that I had to come up with some new house rules, so that I can't sell potions to the same person before I sell them to others traders in others towns.
Hunting is profitable. Offal/kidneys and stuff aren't worth it because they drop very little of it but the main meat, every single deer drops over a hundred of these. With a sturdy horse, heavy duty pony and a single merchant getting rich off your deliveries and having high rep, it can get you quite a lot of Groschens quickly. Don't know if it will get you a million but way enough to have the best drip in town in a short time.
SO fun fact, outlaw is a shorten phrase for outside of the law, meaning that you and others are outside of the law, and since these are medieval times and well, enforcing all over the countryside can be difficult. However this also means you shouldn't be killing every Wayfarer, you can knock them out, but they don't carry much money. As for shops, so there is something interesting in the game that a modern Bestheda game doesn't have that is, merchants can increase their wealth, infact for merchants, it is just a good idea on your back to throw in a few freebies, infact, its very beneficial long term to throw in freebies. HOWEVER, the devs decided to be realistic with the shops, meaning that a potion seller will have decent marketing ventures, the weapons and arms dealers are on the lower end since only the guards have need for them, but the highest for logical reasonings, are those that sell food, especially the meat seller. Now if you read this far then be sure be aware you are awesome and that Kingdom Come has the best merchants than a Bestheda game.
Never said I needed it. So many people miss the point… the point isn’t having the money, the point is earning that much using uncommon methods. It’s just a fun challenge.
The bandit method can work, it just requires really good gear, being in the right spot and having built the armorer in pribyslavitz. Skalitz bandits drop insane gear and every time you ride from the village to the castle you will get ambushed once outside near the edge of the woods, then when you reach Skalitz itself there will be a skirmish between either talmberg guards/merchants and the bandits. So all you gotta do is help the guards or merchants and you can collect your loot from the bandits. Depending on the gear drop rng you can walk out of there with 10-30k worth of gear. Which you can either sell right away or store in the chest for when you’re ready to cash in. After that just take a nap for an hour to save and reset everything, fix the armor or whatever is needed and rinse and repeat. This is my usual money making scheme and it’s quite good, if you’re high enough of a level and have solid gear it can make you ~100k of gear per hour of actual gameplay (discounting sleeping screens) and you can find some rather rare armor, weapons and shields. Granted it does require a hefty upfront fund as you need to upgrade the town enough to have the Rathaus and the armorer. Plus it can be a bit risky at times as about every bandit in the region will rock full plate and sometimes they will spawn with the goddamn pole arms. But headcracker and either a high level blunt weapon like the bailiff mace given to you from that quest or a really good sword like St George’s and it shouldn’t be too much of an issue as long as you can maneuver yourself well in a 4-5 person fight.
I have a even easier way my friend! Same method but A LOT less of a grind.... Some may say it's cheating but I say it's taking advantage of what the games allowed me to do..... Travel to skalitz after the epilogue... Make sure you have a bow & plenty of arrows... There is a specific Bush you can get on top with ease BUT all the enemies there can not... They swarm around you & you just kill them all & the best thing is 80% of the enemies have £8.000+ worth of stuff. Combining this with owning pribitslavitz you earn SOOOOOO much all you gotta do is make sure your horse can carry alot 🤷🏼♂️ still a grind but less mind numbing than picking plants & making potions, At least you get to slay 👌💯 (by the time you travel between rattay & skalitz enemies spawn again) (rinse repeat)
@@sweatyvetter let me know when you do & if you have Twitter or Instagram I can show you the exact bush 👌 I've considered doing a video on this before I've just never got round to it, so would be amazing seeing my master plan getting shown to the masses 💯😂
@@sweatyvetter I'll add you now, just let me know when your thinking about doing it & I'll show you 👍 I'll be playing tonight so I'll make sure to get a recording or screenshot for you bro.
@@sweatyvetter Ive also found you on TikTok I've dropped a follow 👍i may have some KCD videos uploaded in the near future, it's been a while since I've uploaded a gaming clip
Eager way to get money, just go visit skalitz several time after you have a horse. There is 100 percent have two faction (one friendly guards or traders, one foes bandits or cumans) clashing inside a village. If you lucky enough friends is win, you can take all loot and back to ratthay to sell loot. But.... If you unlucky foes more than friends... Prepare for several the high level guy running at you. Also chance of random encounter have some risk or reward in it. So grinding like that never bored for me. Even you not have horse yet, you still can do it. It always contain few loots with light weights and high price Oh, don't forget to keep haggle for every buy and sell, it not just save your money, but it raise your reputation so you can sell loot better and haggle for more better
It's ideal to have a horse for this. I saved up, got Al Buraq with a saddle + 4 bags. I've just been waiting for the fight to end then luring the remaining foes out, hopping on my horse and shooting arrows at them until they leave lol it's honestly kinda fun. And is helping me improve my abilities with mounted archery.
I make the rules in these parts, partner. Church doesn’t lord over me! 😄 Plus, I made my money fair and square making potions. Market manipulation isn’t illegal in KCD. And that’s how I made my million.
You know if you add the alchemy ingredients in the correct order but don’t boil at all it’s still a success. You don’t get as many potions but you get the same XP and once you get the perk where you can make more mistakes you’re golden.
the next best way to do it is leveling your hunting skills, then kill a lot of animals, cook the food items you get from them and sell the cooked items at a higher price using the same "investment" strategy like here. Also, I advise visiting the bathhouse and get the ... full service ... before you go sell your goods.
@@sweatyvetter very true mate very true I just couldn't help myself.... it was right their i had to . Sorry only joking 😅 But u knew that comment was coming anyway 😂 And as I said nice work 👍
I just rebuild the town and hold off on the final church repair and then just wait. Technically the way I wait is illegal as it is going to jail and just hitting the guard once I leave.
An old friend from high school gave me a key for this game, so now I'm thinking I might be able to make a handsome fortune. I suppose I'll need to put this strategy to work. Make a lot of money by investing in alchemy, and going full hog into it to multiply my money. I guess I'm gonna spend time picking herbs a lot too...
@@sweatyvetter When it comes to me and gaming, running out of money is a major problem for me in the early game, so any chance of me having as close to unlimited income as possible will be a big plus for me. I usually spend it all on armor and weapon upgrades, and this would help me.
In fact, you are wrong, if you complete one mission in Talburg called *Hare Hunt* and choose the side of Lord Hare, then at the end of the mission you will become a local huntsman, you will receive your own house and the right to hunt all over the map
If you have final offer perk can haggle to the highest prize and in the second haggle just pick the prize he let to don't angry the merchant or just risk and ask a little more money 😂 is a op perk must get to trade easier without thinking
I never got a million Groschen but i make money fairly easy i love hunting random bandit encounters and selling the armor a little less boring than alchamy but i am going to have to do this simply because it is a good roleplay experience.
@@Eyeslayer exactly 😂 people ask why do it when that much money cant really go toward anything. But the point was to do it. Not worrying about the after. There is no after. lol
@@sweatyvetter you know all that matters is fun. This game inspired me to learn more about history and blacksmithing. I love everything I’ve learned so far. I wish I could visit some of the locations in real life just to see the history behind everything that is there now.
poaching is only illegal until you become the master huntsman. so, if you really want to be more "legit" you would advance the storyline to the point that you can do Hare hunt and then cherchez la femme and become the master huntsman. that being said, how the game handles "poaching" doesn't make all that much sense, because there is nobody out there in the woods to "catch" you poaching, the only way they would catch you is if you take the raw meat into town and it is still marked "stolen" and you get searched , which only happens if you have low rep or a crime recently occurred. meanwhile, you can just "launder" the meat by cooking it, Henry goes out back behind the inn, kills an entire herd of sheep. slaughters them for their meat. waltzes in to that same inn carrying 400 units of fresh raw lamb. cooks it all on the stove in front of everybody and then turns around and sells it to the innkeeper and nobody is the least bit suspicious? and then, in multiple parts of the story, Henry admonishes other characters for poaching. lecturing them on how it's "illegal" and "the law does not look kindly on poachers" and sometimes poachers get hanged. if you want a clear conscience, though, you can become the Master Huntsman and hunt to your heart's content.
Just so everyone knows, it does not work on every merchant. I tried with the Alchemist in Rattay & he never sells the potions, they will remain on display forever no matter how many days you wait. But like in this video, the butcher works perfectly for me. Idk if it’s just a bug in the game or if the merchants are set up to cash out anything that isn’t their designed product. But either way, i recommend everyone using the butcher.
Ok. Couple things. I was not aware that each individual merchant had their own price table for buying/selling items. Here is my question... if I stop selling to that same merchant, does their 'available wealth' eventually lower again? Or can you just keep jacking up their available wealth and make everyone rich? This is a system I haven't explored much of, but it seems a lot more flexible than I thought. I appreciate everyones answer :)
I think eventually it will settle back down to their regular pricing. I’ve had people comment that they can’t get it to work over time. And I think the biggest part of it is the initial sale has to be worth substantially more than they can offer. I think I gave them double the potions compared to what they could afford. The next in game day or so after that I would come back to them having like 15-20k.
@@sweatyvetter Man if this is the case, then that totally opens up this games economy IMO. The life of a traveling merchant is a real 'thing'. If you plan a path of travel from town to town, you'd want to stay on schedule to take as much benefit from each traders available wealth as possible. That... is awesome.
You don't need the treasure maps to find the treasure, just a spade and some lockpicks. I got 6 lucky playing die without any thievery or spending on maps.
I actually made it with the bandits since some wear really expensive armour i simply level up combat which i love in this game and then slaugther entire prybislavitz and wait for them to respawn
I hate that i just had to figure out the alchemy marigold trick to speed run to a million all on my own just this last week, and now i get your video. It is true though, i made 100k in 2 real world days of playing just by spam making lazarus potions with auto brew, then just ran around and sold to everyone who would buy
Thievery, poaching, killing and looting noble bandits of their weapons and armor (skalitz to find those type of bandits), income from privitzlavitz and relieving the millers of their groschen will get you to your 1M Grocshen without console codes
Yeah... alchemy can get you a nice income indeed! :)
Thanks! for this hidden gem of a game.

Not on hardcore. I started a new hardcore save and didn't save my game at all as i was used to the autosave. Got all the way to rattay and got killed by a group of cumans on my way to uzhitz (so i could learn to read again) and got sent all the way back to the main menu as i didn't have any aaved games
@Just_a_Piano_ not as severe, but it happened to me. Was leaving Talmberg to revisit skahlitz. Got killed by the cagey green fuck bc I forgot I can pull my sword to scare him, back to the beginning for me
Amazing that you can boost someone's business within the game. Makes the world feel much more real.
And then you lift all their money from their chest and they don't go out of business or comment on it really. The game flip flops between immersion and utter insanity all the time and you need to stop yourself from completely braking it.
I love sneaking valuable Armor I took off bandits into the Talberg Tavern keeper's chest.
He sells it overnight and suddenly has 17 thousand Groschen.
Obviously, I get a share too. 100% of it as I leave more Armor and book it.
@@Totallynotkyubey LOL i never thought about that. just give them all your stuff for free, they turn it into money, and you take said money from their chest hahahaha im gonna try that
Poachery was illegal, indeed, but Henry received a pass when he started hunting with that "kid" lmao
There’s also a quests that, after completing, grants you freedom to hunt wherever, whenever
Well, only for the time of the Hunt quest.
That one is really nice, hunting isn't as profitable as alchemy but usually when I go out to collect herbs I tend to shoot down a few animals too as to get my mind with atleast doing something fun and to get extra money from the butcher
@@Fushurururu i do believe you can hunt for hare and sell the meat with impunity permanently. but for the fun hunting (as in pieces of game you can actually hit) you do need the appointment to what must be called something like Master Hunter of Talmberg in the english version (it's actually Jägermeister in the german version)
@@miket0174it also gives you experience for the bow
Important note with alchemy. When you have the trial and error perk you can generally just throw all of the ingredients into the pot finish it. No need to grind them up or heat up the water.
Oh really? that easy? good to know thank you!
@@sweatyvetter I just checked. The marigold decotion can be done without the perk. With the perk you get 3 potions. So that probably makes leveling alchemy 3x as fast.
@@et71179 You need trial and error to get perfect recipes where you brew 3 potions at once.
@@et71179for the merhojed quest I had to do the steps 100% accurate... I brewed like 3 or 4 pots and all of them were "no name potion"
On my 5th try i finally realized, I threw in the coal to soon I'm not really patient.
So yea the game is weird, maybe at a certain alchemy level you can have more errors, I was only 2 or 3 at alchemy.
without the perk you can still just throw in the ingredients and bottle it, no need for heating.
Henry and his 13,000 deer livers are why medieval Europe needed poaching laws. The guy is an ecological disaster with a sword.
8:01 Uhm, if you auto-brew and quickly turn the page of the book, you stay focussed on it. Saves about second each time. Since we're all typically brewing a couple dozen to a couple hundred potions for money, that saves minutes.
No way! 😭 thank you for this info!! ❤️🙏
You can actually do one better. If you are quick enough at hitting the auto brew button when you're reading the alchemy book you will craft 6 instead of 3 potions (in the case of the marigold one at least). Doing this also significantly shortens the animation. It makes crafting stupidly fast!
Discovered this channel while looking for KCD2 news and wasn't disappointed. Awesome and entertaining video, I ended up watching all the way through. I'm surprised you don't have more subscribers. I subbed.
Thanks! I’m anxiously waiting any news on kcd2 as well… all good things take time!
Legal way I made 1,000,000 for fun was riding between Pribyslavitz and Skalitz, selling the bandit loot. I did took guard armor which wasn't mark stolen after a minute and I stole 600,000 from the armorer to get to the mil faster, but without that last 2 it's definitely possible and fast to make legally
Edit after Watching the entirety: took only about 3-4 hours at most.
Other tip: few good Belladona spots I know grant 1500 Belladonas and nettles are everywhere. You can also hold F to autobrew twice which makes autobrewing even faster. Then selling the more expensive saviour schnapps.
Definitely a great video and I love this channel, keep up the good work❤
Good points! I never even thought to go to Prib 😅
There are much more convenient spots where bandits regularly fight others.
where can I find the spot with 1500 belladonna's?
@@shukthy when you look at the map east of Rovna, there is a pathway that separates in two and connects back together on the way to Talmberg. It makes sort of an Island, it's in that Island and around it
@@fasteddyuk Skalitz has well armored "knights" 10/10 times and riding to Prib to sell that loot couldn't be more convenient, as it takes just a minute or two
I made my million by farming silver bandit in Skalitz...you can knock down the nest outside of town or use the dig hole bags to store the loot...save in the bed in Skalitz and just ride up the north road to reset the bandit/guard/cumans spawn point in Skalitz. Then I rinsed repeated trips to the inn in Talmberg which will also buy anything and will increase the money the have each time. 😊 good to have options. I once stole 47 horses and had several farms set up so I share your unconventional play style. Nice video ..I enjoy it bunches!!!
I love "breaking" the game and coming up with new ways to play, especially after you complete all the stuff the game has to offer!
There is a bed in Skalitz? Where's that?
@@DerEchteBoldIn the building upstairs, opposite to the inn.
I'm interested in how the 47 horses worked out. Do they not despawn or run away at some point? Can you actually keep them all in one place and where did you keep them? Pretty cool stuff.
@@valveguy4598
I don't think you can keep them (maybe with some mod?), in my experience they always disappear at a certain distance, I parked one close to the boar hunting spot NE of Sasau, was overloaded and walked to the butcher when I came back to get the horse it was gone and that isn't far at all.
If you hace the Ashes DLC, the northern village which you rebuild (and I refuse to pronounce it) can literally give you free momey with each passing day if you complete the reconstruction
Oh yeah! Check out my video oh how I rebuilt Prib using only quest rewards!

This is my favorite game of all time. I love the Alchemy in the game. I don't think its boring at all.
Gotta try going it for hours on hours. You’ll grow to hate it. I loved it at first… lol
This is a great way to do a video like this. You ask a question that realistically only takes a few seconds to answer, and you answer the question within the first few seconds. I cannot stand it when content creators force me to skip to the end of the video just to know the answer. Now I can enjoy watching the method for the next 12 minutes, thank you.
I feel the same way. Which is why I try and structure my videos as such… ask, answer (without giving it away), prove! :)
Comfrey grows near the herb garden in the Sasau monastery grounds in decent enough batches, look to the left of the mint garden!
The archery contest level master has a trick if you have the crosshair. The sway is not random so you can place your crosshair where you know the arrow would hit the middle, and if you hold the clic to shoot, and NOT move the mouse, the crosshair will ALWAYS come back to the original place you put it.
So basically you place your crosshair in the right spot, then NEVER move vyour mouse. Just hold, wait for the crosshair to come back and shoot. You'll hit the middle every single time.
yeah that kinda fucked me over early in my run lmao. i got *really* good at cheesing the archery contest (at least the one in rattay) but that didn't *actually* translate to me being good at archery in the wild lol.
The best way for me is selling bandit and cuman armor in Sasaau and Rattay, I get with every raid about 5 or 7 K per camp in weapons and armor, also the more you sell armor to a merchant the more money he makes. Master Ota in my game have like 50K everytime I go to him
"Jesse, we need to brew potions"
Something I didnt see in the video is an interesting idea: If you are on the monk questline, you can legally take all the herbs in the chest each day you are disguised as a monk. Its a bit tedious to be a monk, but you get something like 60+ of each herb per day, with a few exceptions. Getting good at time skipping each day through your chores, you can net TONS of herbs over a few days. Break out through cellar to offload your herbs to the chest holding your stuff before you became a monk. You could get thousands of herbs with only a few hours of work.
Brother, you can double-click autobrew to get 2 sets of potions every time and it also cancels the book-closing animation. Not sure how many people know this
I didn’t know that at the time 😅
Yep, absolutely life changing! I brew easily like 2-300pots in less than 3-5min
Discovered this by accident, was a life changer.
Did something like that while brewing Vitality potion (needs 1marigold and 2 dandelions) and selling it to everyone in market square. In few days I made 5-6 merchants rich enough to get a few thousands off them every day. Considering that bread and vegetable stalls had probably 5 or 10 groshen on day one.
Nice video.. from one kcd fan to another - good way to make money is farming equipment in Skalitz, when you enter the (I think) northeast gate, almost every time you'll see two groups fighting each other, whether it's bandits against Cumans, Cumans against guards etc. Just be careful about taking loot from guards as it's considered stealing. Often there are high level bandits in plated armor, which can be sold for a lot of money. But be careful, they're not that easily killed.
When you load up your horse and yourself with all that valuable loot, head over to Peshek. You can either sell him the loot like a normal person, or do the other tactic.. which is lockpick his merchant chest, take all the money and put every piece of loot that you have in there. No matter how many items you put in there, he will "sell" it all and have all the money from it in the next couple of days. Could easily be tens of thousands.
Have a good one!
Guys I found a way to improve this strat! Do everything he says, but instead of hunting everywhere for comfrey, only pick it from the bandit farm north of merjohed. Each time you pick it, you’ll get about 150 comfrey. Wait 4-5 in game days, and the comfrey will respawn. This is definitely the quickest. As an added bonus, the bandits will also respawn every 5 days and you can loot them each time after defeating them. Get all the valerian you need in just one run at neuhoff. So much fun!
With the marigold decoction you don’t even need to cook it just pour in the water add x2 marigold then add x1 nettle then pour into the vial.
This method will nett you x3 marigold concoction even though you haven’t cooked it and also it’s important you add the x2 marigold first then the x1 nettle
been doing this for a few hours, the grind that went into this video is real
did you also knock down people?
Was just making potions and found out you can double autobrew for each animation cycle it takes to look at the book and back to normal stance, your timing has to be on point tho, not because youll miss your chance but solely because if you take too long on the second autobrew, Henry wil also flip the hour glass making it take a small bit longer
if you go hunting in Talmberg and build the huntsmans wealth and get a 4 saddlebag saddle, you can sell him 500 meat/trip and deer hunting spot is close to him
Or if you feel like being a reasonable and sane human being you can buy a horse and saddle with a good carry weight and go to a little path with a bridge on the far left of the path somewhere between sasau and rattay ride the path till you see a group of bandits cumans etc. Fighting have them cease vital functions "borrow" their equipment and sell it to the armoursmith and swordsmith and then relax at the tavern with a bottle of spirits and moonshine (alot more reasonable compared to grinding alchemy 13 since a longsword or polearm on horseback is stupid op) edit: ride back to the bridge then go back to where you saw the group fighting they respawn about 80% of the time
I didn’t spend much time trying to find a reliable spawn of Cumans and couldn’t find much on it. :/ this woulda been more fun.
Haha, "borrow".
I do prefer the "borrowing" of bandit's equipment to get rich.
The real jazz you can do is put all the bandit's equipment into Miller Peshek's chest and wait for the NPC's inventory to reset. All those items will be gone, but their value will add to Peshek's groschen total, which you can go into the chest and pick up later on. This includes potions or anything else he would buy, so there is not multiple waiting, just one time waiting once you get the potions you need or whatever you want to flog ;)
I just didn’t wanna commit any monetary gaining crimes 👀😂
@@helicalgoose pretty sure I remember hearing that items in your personal storage will not lose their stolen status so your best bet is just keeping them on your horse and bribing or persuading guards who bother you (reading is a worthwhile skill I swear) edit: or I can completely miss the point of your comment but whatever fun fact if you want to know
@@Raine98245 Ah the item do lose their stolen tags over awhile. I did some experiments on this awhile ago (and on the side have a video, but ill give the jist)
In the game when things are stolen, every item has a value, and lets say for simplicity that an apple was stolen was worth 10 groschen, even if it was rotten or whatever.
The game then looks at that item if you put in your bag and don't move it, it will start a count down timer. For every game hour that goes by, I want to say every stolen item loses 5-6 groschen off its stolen status. This means if you wait two hours the apple will no longer be consider stolen.
So if something is worth 1000 groschen that is 200 game hours that would have to pass before it would lose the stolen status, which is a really long time.
The kicker on that is that if you take an item out of the chest/pack and it was still consider stolen, the stolen timer restarts.
Which gives the effect that stolen tag never goes away. It does, but its sooooo slow on valuable items.
But as you mentioned, just bribe the guards for like what, 20-40 groschen and say screw it. That is the much better approach ;)
Dude you're completely underrated, would love to see more content like this. Earned a sub! :)
Thanks! 😊 and don’t worry. More is on its way!!!
The sequel to this video is my “rise and fall of Henry” video
This works great even now on May 2024 thank you !! Is not as magic as you say but is true that giving the butcher more potions than she is able to pay (even a small quantity of potions) makes her finances to grow a lot! Every time I sell my potions to her she has more money in the next 2 days !
So you can make your own alternate ending where instead of going for revenge, Henry just says “well let bygones be bygones”, and buys his own castle full of mead, turkey legs, and twerking serf women. I like that.
Did you know if you watch gamble then wait until the game is over...usually the last guy left at the table is the winner and has some good gold :)
I didn’t!
I love alchemy. It's a nice and relaxing activity after many deadly combats. Also after you master it as a player and kniw it's perks, you basically get unlimited saves and never have to sleep ever again. The poisons and healing potions are nice too.
This is potion scheme is brilliant though :D It's funny that Warhorse went as far as to design the system so that a trader's wealth increases as you sell to them at a loss and they can then make a profit - but they didn't put in any market saturation. Like, to get to a million Groschen at 50 Groschen a pop, you had to sell the trader *twenty thousand* bottles of Lazarus potion 🤣 Even more actually, since in the beginning you didn't get as much cash from them, you had to buy your presentable clothes, AND you sold them more potions than they actually had cash for.
So basically Rattay's butcher shop trader had to move like 30 000 Lazarus potions. Maybe they scored a contract with some royal armories around Europe or something! 😂
Its good to know that choking someone out in their sleep and stealing from them wasnt illegal back in the day.
I know. Right. 😅
Only if you get caught
It’s not even how I made my million, so I feel justified
To make things like marigold potion, you don't need to boil the brew like it says. Just put in the ingredients and you're done. The only time you need to boil is if it calls for distilling.
This should help some people get lvl 10/13 faster.
Another things that makes you lots of money is the rattay tourney you can make like 720 each tourney and you can just do time skips to get there, or if you really want you can just wait the week
Take all the busted gear to the armourer in rattay, repair it all through him, go upstairs and rob back everything you sold and his money and you’ll be rich in no time. Only problem with this game is that you actually don’t need to have money.
That’s the easy route. My plan was to do all this legally :)
From over 1500 hours playing, I know the best way to make easy "leagl" money, is a Skalitz Bandit farm.
1. You can do it from the start, but a from the ashes armour smith will help.
2. Sell the first armours as cheap as possible, that makes the smith rich.
3. Farm the bandits, fight them ride to rowna crossing than ride back and they will spawn again.
4. A horse with high carry weight is good to have.
If you are good in combat you will earn up to 8k groschen per run and and with a decent horse you can carry around 25k (in loot) groschen to the blacksmith. That can give you 100k groschen per hour. Depending on your play style even more.
Now that's dedication, amazing job. I can't spend an hour on here before im throwing up from motion sickness 😩.
Thank you 🙏
ive found that if you steal from somewhere, (maybe steal everything from the swordsmith, and everything from the armoursmith) and then drop that into peshek's trunk where he holds his money and loot for trading, if you wait a while it turns it into straight groschen. dont have to take the long way and buy it off of him to get rid of the stolen status then sell etc etc, just turns into groschen. you have to wait a couple days for peshek to "Restock" which turns the items you dropped in his trunk into groschen. waiting that time should also restock the traders you stole from, meaning you can steal from them again. i made ~20k groschen in one run.
The fastest way I made money. During my quest to build the town I went back to skalitz. Usually I get beat up really bad or die. But this time I stood at the gate watch the battle between cumans and sometimes it was trader sometimes it was bandits. After they were done killing each other who ever was left I’d shoot arrows at them so they can chase me. I’m on horse so of course I have the upper hand. I get them away from town far enough that they just kind of stand around or disappear. I ride back into town a Loot the dead bodies. The traders don’t really have good gear to sell. But the bandits and cumins do it was the best hack ever since My Henry was still a weak. It helped me build the town fast and my income from there support my lavish lifestyle 🤴
You are SAVAGE! And thanks for the tips ✌🏻
The archery contest is actually pretty good for my tastes. I just find the center of my aim and keep a steady rhythm to my nocking and loosing. Easily outscoring the others by 20 points. I average at 60 - 65 points while they can only land enough for 40 - 46. The only hurdle is how long you can do it before having to wait for the contest to reopen if you're doing it all day. Otherwise, for me, this is as steady as it gets besides selling potions and waiting days for restock.
how do you not have more subscribers this deserves thousands of subscribers you did good keep it up
I think I confused the algo early on with my channel so YT is confused on who my Audience is. Haha! But thank you! I’ll have some more KCD content coming soon, so stay tuned :)
If you want to make leveling alchemy easier you can skip boiling on most recepisse and still get success. The Marigold decoction for example you just drop the herb into the water and you are done.
when i played thru the first time i couldnt figureouthow to make money to rebuild pribeslavitz, now i shall become a purveyor of potion.s
You can essentially do this with any item to inflate and “invest” in a merchant
this game is very fun! i just bought it last week and cant stop playing it haha! btw can you do some videos on how to install mods on KCD? i want the removed animation when gathering herbs
Umm. I could… but @Sxybiscuit already has a great guide that I myself followed and the link I’ll leave here

I’m sure there’s a Breaking Bad joke somewhere….
I legally "borrow" the money from the merchants locked chests.
Sell a bunch of shit to them first best is the rattay blacksmith because he buys everything, sell him all the stupid gear or whatever even if he doesnt have any money to give check him in like 2 to 3 days hes going to have like 10 thousand or more when you only gave him 1000 worth of items thats when you get the REAL price for your items
this is the most interesting piece of useless information I've ever seen, send more please.
I do have more useless KCD facts lol
i stood away from alchemy after the monastery quest when you get to be a monk but after this video im def giving it a try
Good luck :)
If you become the master hunstman of Talmberg (That's a thing you can do, BeeTeeDubs), you can hunt legally anywhere in the game.
i went to skalitz every morning. there was a fight everyday. rob every corpses' armors, store it to your horse (you can increase the maxd capacity. sell it to miller. But this is only worked at the early phase oh your journey.
This is so OP that I had to come up with some new house rules, so that I can't sell potions to the same person before I sell them to others traders in others towns.
amazing video you earned yourself a new sub keep up the amazing work ill be looking forward to your future videos
Right on! I’ve got some future ideas! 😄
„Stealing is off limits.“
Goes immediately out to rob three people. Not only stealing, but knocking them out..
“…for monetary gain” was the end of that sentence that you forgot to include ;)
@@sweatyvetter that’s true. You should go into politics.
@@t00nfish Well he didn't end up making much money off that method anyway so it's all good in the end.
Hunting is profitable. Offal/kidneys and stuff aren't worth it because they drop very little of it but the main meat, every single deer drops over a hundred of these. With a sturdy horse, heavy duty pony and a single merchant getting rich off your deliveries and having high rep, it can get you quite a lot of Groschens quickly. Don't know if it will get you a million but way enough to have the best drip in town in a short time.
SO fun fact, outlaw is a shorten phrase for outside of the law, meaning that you and others are outside of the law, and since these are medieval times and well, enforcing all over the countryside can be difficult.
However this also means you shouldn't be killing every Wayfarer, you can knock them out, but they don't carry much money.
As for shops, so there is something interesting in the game that a modern Bestheda game doesn't have that is, merchants can increase their wealth, infact for merchants, it is just a good idea on your back to throw in a few freebies, infact, its very beneficial long term to throw in freebies.
HOWEVER, the devs decided to be realistic with the shops, meaning that a potion seller will have decent marketing ventures, the weapons and arms dealers are on the lower end since only the guards have need for them, but the highest for logical reasonings, are those that sell food, especially the meat seller.
Now if you read this far then be sure be aware you are awesome and that Kingdom Come has the best merchants than a Bestheda game.
go to skalitz, defeat bandits, loot, sell to rattay, around 12k run everytime, dont need 1M
Never said I needed it.
So many people miss the point… the point isn’t having the money, the point is earning that much using uncommon methods. It’s just a fun challenge.
The bandit method can work, it just requires really good gear, being in the right spot and having built the armorer in pribyslavitz.
Skalitz bandits drop insane gear and every time you ride from the village to the castle you will get ambushed once outside near the edge of the woods, then when you reach Skalitz itself there will be a skirmish between either talmberg guards/merchants and the bandits.
So all you gotta do is help the guards or merchants and you can collect your loot from the bandits.
Depending on the gear drop rng you can walk out of there with 10-30k worth of gear. Which you can either sell right away or store in the chest for when you’re ready to cash in.
After that just take a nap for an hour to save and reset everything, fix the armor or whatever is needed and rinse and repeat.
This is my usual money making scheme and it’s quite good, if you’re high enough of a level and have solid gear it can make you ~100k of gear per hour of actual gameplay (discounting sleeping screens) and you can find some rather rare armor, weapons and shields.
Granted it does require a hefty upfront fund as you need to upgrade the town enough to have the Rathaus and the armorer. Plus it can be a bit risky at times as about every bandit in the region will rock full plate and sometimes they will spawn with the goddamn pole arms.
But headcracker and either a high level blunt weapon like the bailiff mace given to you from that quest or a really good sword like St George’s and it shouldn’t be too much of an issue as long as you can maneuver yourself well in a 4-5 person fight.
I have a even easier way my friend! Same method but A LOT less of a grind....
Some may say it's cheating but I say it's taking advantage of what the games allowed me to do.....
Travel to skalitz after the epilogue...
Make sure you have a bow & plenty of arrows...
There is a specific Bush you can get on top with ease BUT all the enemies there can not...
They swarm around you & you just kill them all & the best thing is 80% of the enemies have £8.000+ worth of stuff.
Combining this with owning pribitslavitz you earn SOOOOOO much all you gotta do is make sure your horse can carry alot 🤷🏼♂️ still a grind but less mind numbing than picking plants & making potions, At least you get to slay 👌💯 (by the time you travel between rattay & skalitz enemies spawn again) (rinse repeat)
Ahhhh! I may use this tactic for future videos! Thanks!
@@sweatyvetter let me know when you do & if you have Twitter or Instagram I can show you the exact bush 👌 I've considered doing a video on this before I've just never got round to it, so would be amazing seeing my master plan getting shown to the masses 💯😂

@@sweatyvetter Ive also found you on TikTok I've dropped a follow 👍i may have some KCD videos uploaded in the near future, it's been a while since I've uploaded a gaming clip
Eager way to get money, just go visit skalitz several time after you have a horse. There is 100 percent have two faction (one friendly guards or traders, one foes bandits or cumans) clashing inside a village. If you lucky enough friends is win, you can take all loot and back to ratthay to sell loot. But.... If you unlucky foes more than friends... Prepare for several the high level guy running at you. Also chance of random encounter have some risk or reward in it. So grinding like that never bored for me.
Even you not have horse yet, you still can do it. It always contain few loots with light weights and high price
Oh, don't forget to keep haggle for every buy and sell, it not just save your money, but it raise your reputation so you can sell loot better and haggle for more better
It's ideal to have a horse for this. I saved up, got Al Buraq with a saddle + 4 bags. I've just been waiting for the fight to end then luring the remaining foes out, hopping on my horse and shooting arrows at them until they leave lol it's honestly kinda fun. And is helping me improve my abilities with mounted archery.
When u get the perk to make one more mistake u can make the marigol without even pumping the flames u can just out nettle marigold and put in vial
So, stealing is Verboten, Poaching is Verboten, Gambling is Verboten according to the Church
Legally? Nien, ALZ VERBOTEN!
I make the rules in these parts, partner. Church doesn’t lord over me! 😄
Plus, I made my money fair and square making potions. Market manipulation isn’t illegal in KCD. And that’s how I made my million.
You know if you add the alchemy ingredients in the correct order but don’t boil at all it’s still a success. You don’t get as many potions but you get the same XP and once you get the perk where you can make more mistakes you’re golden.
the next best way to do it is leveling your hunting skills, then kill a lot of animals, cook the food items you get from them and sell the cooked items at a higher price using the same "investment" strategy like here. Also, I advise visiting the bathhouse and get the ... full service ... before you go sell your goods.

An old friend from high school gave me a key for this game, so now I'm thinking I might be able to make a handsome fortune. I suppose I'll need to put this strategy to work. Make a lot of money by investing in alchemy, and going full hog into it to multiply my money.
I guess I'm gonna spend time picking herbs a lot too...
@@RAPTOR948 honestly, this much money is so unnecessary and will kinda ruin the experience for a first time.
@@sweatyvetter When it comes to me and gaming, running out of money is a major problem for me in the early game, so any chance of me having as close to unlimited income as possible will be a big plus for me.
I usually spend it all on armor and weapon upgrades, and this would help me.
In fact, you are wrong, if you complete one mission in Talburg called *Hare Hunt* and choose the side of Lord Hare, then at the end of the mission you will become a local huntsman, you will receive your own house and the right to hunt all over the map
Luckily my family plays farkle while drinking “we don’t call it farkle”
you can get hunting permission from doing the robin hood-esque quest.
If you have final offer perk can haggle to the highest prize and in the second haggle just pick the prize he let to don't angry the merchant or just risk and ask a little more money 😂 is a op perk must get to trade easier without thinking
Very good video thank you! Barely started this game this month
Thank you, i need some groschens for my town that sir hanush assigned me to
Good luck rebuilding! Check out my other videos on how to build it for maximum profit!
I’m going to throw this casually into my current playthrough I just started to see if it’s still that overpowered if you spread it out.
I never got a million Groschen but i make money fairly easy i love hunting random bandit encounters and selling the armor a little less boring than alchamy but i am going to have to do this simply because it is a good roleplay experience.
@@Eyeslayer exactly 😂 people ask why do it when that much money cant really go toward anything. But the point was to do it. Not worrying about the after. There is no after. lol
@@sweatyvetter you know all that matters is fun. This game inspired me to learn more about history and blacksmithing. I love everything I’ve learned so far. I wish I could visit some of the locations in real life just to see the history behind everything that is there now.
poaching is only illegal until you become the master huntsman. so, if you really want to be more "legit" you would advance the storyline to the point that you can do Hare hunt and then cherchez la femme and become the master huntsman.
that being said, how the game handles "poaching" doesn't make all that much sense, because there is nobody out there in the woods to "catch" you poaching, the only way they would catch you is if you take the raw meat into town and it is still marked "stolen" and you get searched , which only happens if you have low rep or a crime recently occurred.
meanwhile, you can just "launder" the meat by cooking it,
Henry goes out back behind the inn, kills an entire herd of sheep. slaughters them for their meat. waltzes in to that same inn carrying 400 units of fresh raw lamb. cooks it all on the stove in front of everybody and then turns around and sells it to the innkeeper and nobody is the least bit suspicious?
and then, in multiple parts of the story, Henry admonishes other characters for poaching. lecturing them on how it's "illegal" and "the law does not look kindly on poachers" and sometimes poachers get hanged.
if you want a clear conscience, though, you can become the Master Huntsman and hunt to your heart's content.
Right when I think there can’t possibly be more to the game there’s trick dice!
Never knew this
Just so everyone knows, it does not work on every merchant. I tried with the Alchemist in Rattay & he never sells the potions, they will remain on display forever no matter how many days you wait. But like in this video, the butcher works perfectly for me. Idk if it’s just a bug in the game or if the merchants are set up to cash out anything that isn’t their designed product. But either way, i recommend everyone using the butcher.
Oh snap! I had no idea! Thank you! 🙏
Ok.
Couple things.
I was not aware that each individual merchant had their own price table for buying/selling items. Here is my question... if I stop selling to that same merchant, does their 'available wealth' eventually lower again? Or can you just keep jacking up their available wealth and make everyone rich? This is a system I haven't explored much of, but it seems a lot more flexible than I thought. I appreciate everyones answer :)
I think eventually it will settle back down to their regular pricing. I’ve had people comment that they can’t get it to work over time. And I think the biggest part of it is the initial sale has to be worth substantially more than they can offer. I think I gave them double the potions compared to what they could afford. The next in game day or so after that I would come back to them having like 15-20k.
@@sweatyvetter Man if this is the case, then that totally opens up this games economy IMO. The life of a traveling merchant is a real 'thing'. If you plan a path of travel from town to town, you'd want to stay on schedule to take as much benefit from each traders available wealth as possible. That... is awesome.
You don't need the treasure maps to find the treasure, just a spade and some lockpicks. I got 6 lucky playing die without any thievery or spending on maps.
I actually made it with the bandits since some wear really expensive armour i simply level up combat which i love in this game and then slaugther entire prybislavitz and wait for them to respawn
I just wish LCD gave you more stuff to do with extreme wealth. It would be cool if you could basically buy titles, mercenary bands etc.
Truth.
Ever since Morrowind, in RPGs, my profession has been alchemy.
But the alchemy in KCD is soooo boring until auto brew.
I hate that i just had to figure out the alchemy marigold trick to speed run to a million all on my own just this last week, and now i get your video. It is true though, i made 100k in 2 real world days of playing just by spam making lazarus potions with auto brew, then just ran around and sold to everyone who would buy
Haha it’s all good! You cracked the code on your own!
The alchemy was my favourite part of the game lmfao 😂 its the most immersive alchemy system in any game
It was one of my favorite things in KCD...until this video...it ruined it for me
I was laughing hysterically by the end of your video lol
The odds of ANY die landing on 1 or 5 is already 33%>
Uhm… reviving Pribyslavitz is perfectly legal, too 😂
What you mean?
@@sweatyvetterthe dlc city you can make
Thievery, poaching, killing and looting noble bandits of their weapons and armor (skalitz to find those type of bandits), income from privitzlavitz and relieving the millers of their groschen will get you to your 1M Grocshen without console codes
This type of grinding change my gamestyle thief to buisnessman :) Dzięki bardzo
Dude, just let the bow sway itself to the target, you just need to aim on the vertical axis.
No way we've got salesman Hungreh Henreh before KCD 2 😭😭
