Unlock the Dogwood Village Bow in KCD 2: Easy Guide

Secure a Free Bow Early in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Early-game combat in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 can be challenging. This guide shows you how to acquire the Dogwood Village Bow early and without spending a single groat.

After parting ways with Hans, your path to the wedding involves either working for a blacksmith or a miller. Regardless of your chosen profession, the blacksmith's location conveniently marks the bow's whereabouts.

The blacksmith's shop is situated in Tachov, north of Troskowitz. Leave Troskowitz heading west, then follow the path as it curves north. At the fork where a smaller road branches west, veer right towards a cluster of trees. A small training area is hidden within.

You'll find a target with arrows – grab these for free ammunition. The Dogwood Village Bow rests against a tree trunk to the right of the target. There are also herbs and mushrooms nearby for gathering.

Alternative Acquisition:

While you can purchase the Dogwood Village Bow from Huntsman's Son Vitek in Tachov, it's not the most powerful ranged weapon and is less efficient than obtaining it for free. Vitek does, however, offer other, superior weapons, and you can supplement your income through alchemy.

Regardless of your chosen method, having a ranged weapon significantly eases combat, particularly for players who prefer ranged combat over melee.

After acquiring the bow, resume your questline. If you chose the blacksmith path, remember to save after successfully forging a sword. Otherwise, proceed to the miller's.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is available now on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
