In Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, the "Wedding Crashers" quest presents a choice: side with the blacksmith or the miller. Both paths offer unique advantages and gameplay styles.
The Blacksmith (Radovan):
This path leans towards a more traditional RPG experience. Aligning with Radovan provides a blacksmithing tutorial, enabling easier recipe acquisition and crafting of weapons and armor. Access to the forge and sharpening wheel allows for convenient gear repair and durability enhancement.
The Miller:
This route emphasizes stealth, lockpicking, and thievery. Ideal for players preferring a rogue-like approach, it offers ample practice with the (admittedly challenging) lockpicking mini-game.
Which to Choose?
The optimal strategy is to experience both! Each character offers three quests. To maximize skill acquisition, complete two quests for each, learning both blacksmithing and lockpicking techniques. Then, choose one for the final quest to conclude the storyline.
Regardless of your final choice, both the blacksmith and miller provide Henry with a resting place, facilitating exploration. For further Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 guides and tips, check out The Escapist.
