Set on a gritty, wind-swept frontier, a seasoned fighter chases a blade steeped in legend. In Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, the Redeemer quest threads through campfires, bustling markets, and shadowed tents, testing skill, nerve, and the weight of every choice. This guide follows a perilous journey to seize the coveted sword and navigate the moral twists that come with the path.
How to start the Quest “Redeemer”
To begin Redeemer, the hunter of the blade travels to the village of MySkovitsy in the Kuttenberg region and seeks a craftsman with a steady hand and a wary eye. The blacksmith recalls a nameless fighter who pressed him to forge a blade for a steep price, but the request was refused. He warns that the path lies beyond the town walls and hints that a nearby military camp may shelter the elusive swordsman. The smith’s guidance points toward that encampment, where the pursuit continues in earnest.
Blacksmith
Within the Sigismund encampment, a soldier named Tomash is found in Colin’s quarters. He explains that he seeks a “savior” sword crafted from a blade once owned by a Polovty member. The plan calls for lifting the original weapon, forging a convincing counterfeit, and offering the fake for half its value, a risky scheme that hinges on timing, secrecy, and the right moment to strike.
Steal the Bazaanzwaard
The target sits at the Bazan tent on the camp’s edge, just to the left of Restres. Move with speed and stay vigilant for guards who march with purpose. Enter only the designated space, avoid triggering alarms, seize the Bazan blade, and vanish before being spotted. A misstep could bring a swarm of eyes on the pursuer, so patience and precise timing matter as the night air tightens around the camp.
Bazan
Forge a fake sword from Bazan
With the Bazan blade in hand, the next step is to take it to a nearby blacksmith for forging a convincing copy. The craft demands a specific set of materials, gathered through careful effort and stealth.
- Deer skin, one piece
- Octagonal top, one unit
- Garda, one piece
- Frankfurt Steel, two units
- Iron, two units
When the forging finishes, the wielder holds both the original blade and a perfect copy, ready for the next phase of Redeemer. The process is meticulous but essential, requiring a balance of speed and care to avoid leaving traces behind.
Throw a fake “Savior” in the Bazan Chest
Back at the Bazan camp tent, slip into the private space without drawing attention and drop the counterfeit sword into the Bazan Chest. The chest can hold both the real blade and the replica, if the player chooses, creating a subtle trail of possibilities that can influence the outcome.
Give the “Savior” to Tomash
Returning to the smith, Tomash sits nearby, ready to inspect the blade. He takes the Savior sword and recognizes its value, offering a reward for the feat. The quest allows handing over both the original and the fake, or presenting the real or the copy while suggesting a counterfeit remains in the chest to nudge Tomash toward a decision. The choice can ripple through the camp and affect future encounters with other characters tied to the blade.
Alternative path in the search
An alternate course starts by finding Bazan, typically near the ristel. He is told about Tomash’s plan, and the tale unfolds from there. A caution: removing the Polovty sword from its box may close off future interactions with that character and the weapon. The route opens a different sequence of meetings, negotiations, and risks, but it can yield a powerful outcome when played with care.
Two possible outcomes follow depending on choices:
- You convince Bazan to stand with the cause against Tomash. If he joins, Bazan fights, is defeated, and the original sword can be handed to Tomash.
- You propose a split of the spoils. The division hinges on your persuasion. The warrior reveals the original sword, and the counterfeit is given to Tomash. The loot can then be shared with the Polovty.
This path adds drama and the chance to secure a strong weapon. If a companion has not yet grown in skill, this may yield a solid blade with little cost. Be mindful that taking this route can limit later choices in the game world.
