How to Bathe & Clean Yourself in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2

by Violet Feb 26,2025

Maintaining a clean appearance in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 significantly impacts NPC interactions and quest outcomes. Neglecting hygiene leads to negative perceptions and reduced persuasion success. Here's how to stay spick and span:

Why Cleanliness Matters:

A pristine appearance improves how others perceive Henry, facilitating smoother conversations and increasing the chances of successful persuasion checks. Being dirty imposes penalties on Speech and charisma, hindering dialogue options.

Cleaning Methods:

Three primary methods exist for cleansing Henry: troughs, bathing spots, and bathhouses.

Troughs:

Trough Cleaning

Commonly found near buildings in towns and outposts, troughs offer a basic clean. Interacting with a trough removes some dirt and blood, but leaves clothing unaffected.

Bathing Spots:

Bathing Spot

Located near larger bodies of water (e.g., rivers, ponds), bathing spots provide a more thorough clean than troughs. Submerging yourself partially cleans both Henry and his clothing, though not completely. An example is found west of the Nomads' and Cumans' Camps in the Trotsky region.

Bathhouses:

For the most effective cleaning, visit a bathhouse (usually in larger towns). A small Groschen fee grants a complete clean, removing all dirt and blood from Henry and his clothing, ensuring optimal social interactions. Regular bathhouse visits are recommended.
