by

Summary

  • Bounty of the Wild allows for more animal parts, essential for quests and profit.
  • Flower Power boosts charisma with 30 herbs, easy to maintain for a permanent bonus.
  • Heartseeker boosts ranged damage on torso hits, ideal for stealthy archer builds.

In Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, you can develop your abilities at your own pace, unbound by the need to balance them against one another. Additionally, you’ll have the freedom to allocate perk points without fretting over which skills require priority. The Survival skill set, for instance, empowers you to forage for herbs and hunt game effectively, while also offering some exclusive advantages.

As a gamer, I’ve found that a lot of the Survival skill perks synergize, gradually boosting my advantages in various aspects or introducing fresh gameplay elements that alter my strategy. While there’s no such thing as a bad Survival perk, some are definitely worth snatching up before I hit level 30.

Bounty Of The Wild

Obtaining “Bounty of the Wild” should be your initial priority among Survival perks, since it enables you to gather more animal components. This perk is vital not only for the Troubadours quest but also because the additional meat, organs, and furs can fetch a significant amount of money on their own.

To maximize this benefit, it’s recommended that you concentrate on hunting wild boars since they are easier to hunt and their hides fetch a higher price compared to most other animals. This practice can also aid you in gathering additional materials for alchemy and blacksmithing, like wolf teeth and deer antler shards, which you would otherwise need to buy separately.

The Explorer perk in the Scholarship skill will reveal the entire map, including all hunting spots.

7.

Flower Power

The “Flower Power” advantage boosts your charm significantly, yet this enhancement is active exclusively when you carry at least 30 fresh or dried herbs in your inventory. Gathering these herbs even once will result in a permanent bonus, making it quite achievable.

In certain scenarios, you might find yourself without your equipment, causing you to forfeit the bonus. However, these tasks are intentionally designed to be difficult. To avoid this, ensure that you always have 30 dried herbs in your bag while managing your personal chest or horse inventory, or even when trying to shed some weight.

6.

Lucky Find

As a dedicated herb enthusiast, my initial forays into harvesting near Bozhena’s humble abode left me somewhat disheartened by the repetitive animations and scant yields – just one herb per pick. However, with the introduction of Lucky Find, I can now reap multiple bountiful handfuls of herbs from each animation, significantly streamlining the herb-gathering process!

Additionally, it collects nearby herbs automatically, reducing the need for Henry to frequently stop and wiggle his arms. Notably, Lucky Find comes with an occasional chance of discovering minor items like boar tusks or valuable trinkets.

To avoid the risk of gaining too much weight due to this benefit, ensure that a pharmacy is nearby before stocking up on hundreds of herbs in your storage.

5.

Heartseeker

This “Heartseeker” skill enhances the power of your bow and crossbow shots when aimed at an opponent’s upper body (torso). Since it’s the largest target, this perk increases the chances of a quick kill, regardless of whether you intentionally aim for the torso or not. It’s more about precision in marksmanship than survival skills.

As a stealthy archer enthusiast like myself, this feature proves indispensable. It can be quite challenging to take down opponents with a single arrow without it. Don’t forget to acquire Heartseeker II too, as it enhances the bonus to 25 percent, complementing heavy crossbows perfectly for those seeking that elusive one-shot advantage in their archery gameplay.

4.

Leshy

Leshy offers a strong advantage all by itself, granting various benefits such as enhanced Stealth, Agility, Vitality, and even additional Stealth boosts. However, it’s crucial to note that these benefits only activate when you’re within forest territories. This aspect proves particularly beneficial for dealing with enemy camps, as they are typically tucked away in wooded areas.

To enhance this perk to be among the top advantages in the game, pairing it with Leshy II and Wild Man will amplify these benefits even more. This boost can be triggered from anywhere outside the established villages or towns. If you can choose only three perks within the Survival skill line, these should undoubtedly be your choices.

3.

Master Fletcher

Instead of boosting survival skills, Skilled Armsmith alters the characteristics of bolts and arrows, causing them to travel greater distances, faster speeds, and with improved accuracy. Additionally, it amplifies their ability to pierce armor, thereby intensifying the potency of your bowshots’ impact.

In essence, implementing this modification significantly changes the sensation of your arrows and bolts, making it nearly essential for achieving consistent high scores in specific ranged competitions. For hunting purposes, it allows you to aim at deer and wild boar from greater distances, reducing the likelihood of scaring off your target.

2.

On The Poacher’s Trail

To make the most out of Bounty of the Wild, On the Poacher’s Trail increases your rewards significantly when you sell herbs, meat, offal, hides, and trophies from animals. This valuable bonus is crucial for earning a large amount of money since you’ll accumulate a lot of wolf materials just by traveling on the roads.

Additionally, this method yields profit from pelts discovered in chests, enabling you to earn a greater number of groschens than typical during theft, merely by increasing the worth of your loot. When paired with Lucky Find, you can primarily focus on gathering numerous herbs for selling to apothecaries, should you prefer not to hunt.

1.

Master Cook

Spending a single game day solely on hunting could yield sufficient meat that lasts for several days. With Master Cook’s assistance, the smoked and cooked meat is always in top condition, extending your time to find campfires or smoking huts without worrying about spoilage.

In particular, it’s crucial to remember that offal and organs offer unique advantages when prepared at campfires because they can restore their optimal condition, maximizing their benefits. Additionally, smoking meat becomes more worthwhile since, although its effects don’t persist as long as dried meat, the bonuses are significantly greater.
