How to Start the Absolver Quest
To begin the Absolver quest in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2, speak with Thomas of Kolin at Sigismund’s Camp.
Absolver Walkthrough
Sigismund’s soldiers are not exactly loving each other. One of them, Thomas of Kolin, would like to discreetly get his hands on a sword belonging to a cuman called Basan.
Steal Basan’s sword
Instead of stealing the sword, you can speak with Basan near the combat arena and warn him that his sword might get stolen. Basan will then run to challenge Thomas in a duel. Wait for them to finish their fight to see who emerges victorious! Spoilers… Basan will kill Thomas! Speak with Basan afterwards. You’ll receive no reward.
If you choose to steal the sword, loot the chest (medium) in the white tent behind the combat arena to find the Longsword “Absolver”.
Next, you must go to a smithy and forge a replica of Basan’s sword. You’ll need the following materials:
- Deer skin x1
- Eight-sided sword pommel x1
- Horned sword guard x1
- Frankfurt steel x2
- Iron x2
You can purchase the deer skin and Frankfurt steel from the Armoursmith in Sigismund’s Camp. The eight-sided sword pommel, Frankfurt steel, horned sword guard and iron can be purchased from the Blacksmith in Sigismund’s Camp.
After you’ve forged the sword, you’ll have several options for what to do next!
- Give Thomas the sword without putting anything in the chest
- Put replica in chest and give Thomas original
- Put original in chest and give Thomas replica
- Put replica in chest and give Thomas replica
No matter your choice, you’ll receive 607.9 groschen and the Absolver quest will end.
