KCD - Top 5 Best Longswords Location Guide

[@Reaper-J129]

Got the game yesterday, I am very pleased that people are still making video's on it. Shows that this game is great even after 4 years

[@micahk99]

Dude same, having a blast cant wait for the next one to drop

[@Mao-bb8hk]

And just you wait, KCD 2 is coming out February 2025 and it's gonna be at least twice as good as this one. It looks amazing

[@thctycoon1944]

It’s been 6 years since it came out

[@Reaper-J129]

​@@thctycoon1944 really? I thought it came out in 2020? It's been since 2018?

Still posting vids about kcd ? Wow your a legend fr

[@Dare_To_Game]

I love this game. Can't wait for #2.

[@Ffxxxx332]

​@@Dare_To_Game same. KCD is probabaly the best game ive ever played.

[@DrunkFentonCallahan]

KCD never dies

[@AustinSmith-qt2ud]

@@Ffxxxx332I thought I was growing out of games. Thankfully just needed devs that cared about their product and their customers experience. Watch monoposoft buy them up after the 2nd drops, I’d love to see the versatility of the team with other projects aswell🤌

[@Gregzilla83]

​@Dare_To_Game I can't believe I passed on this when it came out, and then I just never got around to it. I grabbed the royal edition for 3.99 and it was worth every cent. Pumped for the second now

[@joejones1991]

Just bought this game and dlc for 4 dollars. First time playing and im loving it

[@DazHotep6EQUJ5]

Me too, absolute bargain. Its the most fun I've had gaming in ages.

[@MealBoi]

I said the same thing 6 months ago and I put 1000 hours in since

[@Lexi-vl5eh]

This is a really well done video. Makes finding the best longswords in the game ridiculously easy.

[@Dare_To_Game]

Thank you very much. I am glad you enjoy it.

[@Tyler_durden2.78]

And now that i finished watching the video its a really well made vid please continue

[@Dare_To_Game]

Thank you very much. I am glad you liked it.

[@Dover78]

There's another way to get Saint George's Sword. During the quest where you go to the bathhouse with Hans Capon, you can steal his Saint George's Sword from the chest he puts his gear into. That's how I got mine during my first playthrough way back when the game first came out.

[@jackjohnson8305]

That was patched a long time ago, he now has a merchant sword instead.

[@Dover78]

@@jackjohnson8305 Ahh, what a bitch. Probably for the best, though. I did that quest pretty early and it kinda diminished the fun getting the best longsword so early.

[@sakerminter]

Love the piercer, i "accidentally" got it from the executioner as my first quest after the prologue and it lasted me most of the game until i got st George's sword.

[@whenyoudownrng]

same here, i didn't use anything else until i got queen sheba's

[@carinasmirnoff1780]

I love the way longinus' sword looks. It will probably always be my favorite.😊

[@Dare_To_Game]

I also love it. Simplistic, yet elegant.

[@josephmeeks3395]

I can't believe the Magdeburg didn't make your list

[@Dare_To_Game]

I love that sword, but it did not make the cut this time.

[@forests.9597]

​@Dare_To_Game Magdeburg is better than the Duellist bro, it does just a little less damage, but it has the highest defense stat in the game

[@josephmeeks3395]

@@Dare_To_Game it's the best all around long sword best durability and best defense

[@whenyoudownrng]

@@josephmeeks3395 durability doesn't matter with swords because they're literally free to repair, defense doesn't matter in general because all defense does is lower the stamina cost of normally blocking attacks, which you're not doing unless you suck, and st. george's does damn near 40% more damage. there is an objectively best longsword that is available from the very beginning, you should not be using anything but st. george's if you're going the longsword route lmao

[@whenyoudownrng]

@@forests.9597 defense is a useless stat so

[@stargatefan10]

Really excellent video. Love the style of these, very easy to follow.

[@Dare_To_Game]

Thank you very much. I am glad you enjoyed it.

[@CarlosSilvaGomes82]

Secound place must be the Queen of Sheba's sword with 65 stab and 65 slash

[@karlwittenburg5868]

Yeah I was surprised to see it didn’t make the list. After I got it forged I pretty much used it exclusively for the last act of the game

[@theheartofgaming2180]

Heyoo! Thanks for the well made video!

[@MindlessNoteGridCRTRWRTR]

I have an armour set request I call the "Stargazing Noble's Form" It's a suit I really like looks wise and came as inspiration after Henry's talk with Martin after Radzig gets an Uber. Culmination of my Henry's stealth military achievements and bravery in confrontations with heavily armored bandits, hence the dark colors but heavy armour. Cloth layer: Black Padded Coif, Dark Saxon Gamb., Tight black Hose, Dark Noble Shoes Padding layer: Noble's mail coif, Dec. Bavarian(non gold trim), Padded Chausses(darker variant) Plate armour: Hounskull, Dark Milanese Brigandine, Riveted Pauldrons(black leather), Saxon Composite Chausses(black leather) And finally, a black scarf for the outer garment slot Weapons: Longinus' Sword or Fearnot (engraved pommel or cross guard being a visual reminder of what he lost and aim to reclaim). My henry did not use much archery but he did hold onto a novice's decorated dagger.

[@Dare_To_Game]

Ill have to take a look at that. i love a detailed armor request.

[@stever4128]

I found St. Michael's sword and Magdeburg sword. Both are really high stat.

[@ParryThis]

I also really like the Tusk. I just wish it looked a little more unique.

[@Dare_To_Game]

Yeah, it should be way more unique, appearance wise. It being the sword that comes out of the Town Henry manages.

[@douggiles7647]

Just a heads-up that you can also just get Piercer out of the exact same chest in Rattay Upper Castle that Duellist is in. May as well just kill 2 birds with 1 stone lol.

[@Hadras7094]

The sequel we have all been waiting for

[@Dare_To_Game]

I'm glad it was anticipated.

[@DazHotep6EQUJ5]

Herods Sword is my go to. It's my favourite lookimg sword so far.

[@BluejayGamingVR]

I’d have to argue swapping #2 & #3. I have a lot of kills with the duelist and I’ve recently switched to Longinus’ Sword, I think LS is much more combat effective. Great video tho🎉

[@DurianDragonStew]

Legendary man

[@Dare_To_Game]

Thank you very much.

[@Strengthinevidence]

Has anyone done a video about who the single strongest enemy is in the game? Not character but someone you’d actually fight?

[@Hadras7094]

I don't have a perfect answer, but I am fairly certain that the enemies that spawn in skalitz are maxed out

[@Dare_To_Game]

The hardest fights are the high level bandits that spawn in Skalitz. Runt is also quite strong, and some of the bandits in Vranik are pretty high level as well.

[@Strengthinevidence]

@@Dare_To_Game ok thanks. I was wondering because at this point I have all the best gear and maxed all combat stats so most fights are really easy with some patience

[@snepping1885]

i hope kcd2 is better optimized and not as janky

[@Dare_To_Game]

I believe it will be. They have a lot more funding this time around.

[@Ilposeidonll]

KCD 2 revealed so you're probably hyped! :D

[@Dare_To_Game]

Very hyped. I cannot wait to get to try it.

[@tomassadil324]

great vid! But according to you, Queen Sheeba's sword doesn't deserve to be in top 5 or did it just slip your mind?

[@Dare_To_Game]

I've reconsidered the importance of durability in relation to longswords. I find that i only use longswords in one on one duels, or against lightly armored opponents, and so it factors in far less than i had initially believed.

[@DeutzFarmer96]

I'll always be more of an axe man, but the longswords are pretty iconic.

[@Dare_To_Game]

In my current playthrough, i'm forcing myself to stick to longswords as much as possible.

[@alexanderpeguero9467]

What do you think about st michaels sword, i love its look and description

[@HenryKobyla1407]

St George's sword is legendary. FFels so iconic equipping that bad boy. Might be the only sword in the province better made than Sir Radzig's/

[@Dare_To_Game]

That's true. Stat wise it's definitely better. I hope in the second game, Sir Radzig's sword has better stats.

[@Just_a_Piano_]

@@Dare_To_Game Honestly the stats on Sir Radzigs sword kinda suck lol, only 45 damage and just about every other longsword in the game was more than that

[@Uss_liberty_]

Discovered this game December 2024 and can’t believe I missed out

[@dakaodo]

But you found it, so you haven't missed out now! Also, whatever bugs the game had at launch have been mostly ironed out. I've played for 77 hours in my current playthrough, with only one crash and no quest-ending bugs. Just minor character teleport glitches through walls sometimes in really tight spaces.

[@Uss_liberty_]

@@dakaodo black peter disappeared and being stuck in the monastery is aids. other than that 10/10 game

[@jamesplunkett8912]

List of cool longswords: 1. The Piercer. 2. Herod's sword. 3. Longinus' sword. 4. The Duelist. 5. Saint George's sword.

[@qwert4461]

With a couple buffs, i get 97 dmg for St George's LS 🎉 im loving this game, just came across it bout a month ago and already have 180+ hours on it 😂

[@ChrisSteezOfficial]

backwards on stab and slash when refereeing to st herods sword the whole time it had higher slash not stab

[@BeamRider100]

Long swords are cool because you can belt bandits and cumans from horseback.

[@HurriShane00]

You know it's funny I've never actually looked up the durability or the defense of the swords I always just look at the stab and Slash stats. There's another way you can get St Michael's sword. And that is from Hans capon himself. During the bathhouse mission all his belongings are in that chest in the bath house. When he tells you to go get the wine, you can go into the chest and grab all of this stuff including the sword I'd like to add the Executioner sword as an honorable mention . Not THE executioner. But that scab they bring in to execute those three men. It doesn't have a great stab but has the highest slash start in the game at 79 almost every slash causes the opponent to bleed and it is the rarest sword in the game if you don't count the Queen of Sheba sword which technically is harder to get since you have to find all the pieces

[@edgonzales5411]

I'm surprised that you didn't have st. Michaels sword on the list although it was on ur last one i'm sure

[@stick1851]

I fought the Executioner in a fist fight for the Piercer sword at the beginning of the game lol

[@AjaxII]

Magdeburg must to be in the Top five on second or third place, because it has the highest defence of all longswords

[@jucalebre7540]

Nice

[@TheMostBanned]

How do you get that armor you have im new to this game

[@Kitchdmn3]

I just found the St Michael’s by accident trying to take down a Cuman camp.

[@Standingsole]

where would you put st michael sword

[@SocialStudies831]

Did you use a mod for mill guy to have thst much gold?

[@Dare_To_Game]

No, just keep selling him more stuff than he has money for. When his store refreshes, his money will go up.

[@garrettgill7458]

I’ve been sitting on the Herod sword for like a week maybe week and half in game and the item is still hot not gonna use it I’m too scared to lose it (ik there’s saves but still)

[@garrettgill7458]

Is there anyway to speed up the process like skipping through days and sleeping right away?

[@MMHKC]

what about Magdeburg Sword?

[@noodle_nz]

Think it’s a chance to drop

[@MMHKC]

@@noodle_nz what?

For me the best long sword is executioner sword.

Get the bowman's brew (+5 bow). I then head to the woods to hunt hares. try the apothecary or hunt master in Rattay.

Ye can jack st George's sword from capon when he takeing a bath

[@Hadras7094]

Not anymore. In the last update they changed it to a merchant sword

[@Flavius-Timasius]

Best way to get herod sword as on me is just still it, and pay hundred or so grushen after hiding it into the chest

[@Just_a_Piano_]

I just go to the front door of the rattay shop, wait until night with the door open, and just watch the owner walk back up too the second floor, go in and steal whatever I want before he get's into bed. The moment he get's into bed all items in there despawn and get put into a very hard chest. Same thing with pretty much all stores I believe.. Then I just put it in my chest at the mill and wait until the stolen tag is gone

[@Flavius-Timasius]

@@Just_a_Piano_ this is good way

[@Just_a_Piano_]

@@Flavius-Timasius Yes, it's the absolute easiest way if you have contemplative Perk as you can just wait inf amount of time without getting tired or hungry and get everything right at the start. But if you're on hardcore then unless you got a lot of food that doesn't spoil then you might as well just leave them in the chest while you play, and occasionally check whether their stolen or not. All other youtube tutorials just tell you to sell it to the miller and buy it back to rid the stolen tag, but if you even have the money to do that just go ahead and buy the freakin thing what would be the point in stealing it if either way cost just as much
