Finding Barbos in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

In this guide, we will tell you how to find Barbos, Henry's faithful companion in the game Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. This side quest is activated immediately after the introductory quests and is called "Barbos". We recommend doing it as soon as possible, as Barbos will be useful in various aspects of the game.

Step 1: Starting the Quest

The "Barbos" quest will begin automatically after completing the "Troski" story mission. Do not put it off, because Barbos can be of significant help on your journey. Follow the marker to the west, to the green letter "A". Here you will find the body of a robber and a tramp. If you fail the skill check, you will have to engage in combat. In any case, after dealing with the tramp, examine the robber's body and the deer carcass nearby.

Step 2: Meeting the herbalist

Follow the herbalist Bozhena and ask her if she has seen the dog. She will give you a hint about Barbos's location. She also has an additional quest, "Bad Blood", related to the search for her missing daughter Pavlena.

Step 3: Exploring the markers

After talking to Bozhena, several markers will appear that can be explored in any order. In the south of the Apolena forest, near the fast travel point, there is a shepherd's hut. Talk to him, and he will point to the shepherd, who is north of Tahov.

Step 4: Talking to the shepherd

Follow the marker to the shepherd, who will tell you about the wolf pack and the dog that joined them. Agree to help him. The shepherd will give you a carrot. Wait for a ram named Ignatz to come out to you and move with him to the marker. Do not rush, as Ignatz may stop. When you reach the double birch tree, stand under it. When Henry finishes talking, open your inventory and throw away the carrot by holding down the X key. Ignatz should come up and start eating the carrot.

Step 5: Waiting for the Wolves

Move to the large tree surrounded by bushes. Interact with one of the bushes to hide and wait for the wolves. After a while, two wolves and one dog will appear, but it is not Barbos. If you want to save Ignatz, attack them immediately. Keep in mind that in close combat, the wolves and the dog may escape if you are injured. The shepherd asks you to destroy the entire pack, so proceed with caution. If you don't want to kill all the wolves, you can lie to the shepherd about having dealt with them (this may affect the plot in the future).

When fighting wolves, wait for one of them to attack, parry the attack with the right mouse button, step closer to the wolf and attack with a sword or other melee weapon. If you don't get closer, the wolf may be out of reach of your attack after parrying.

Step 6: Finding the Hunter

Return to the shepherd and tell him about your findings. He will advise you to interrogate the hunter at the Vidladskie ponds. There will also be a fisherman's mark at the same place. The fisherman will not give you any useful information, but you will earn some reputation. When you get to the hunter's place, he will not be there. Talk to his wife Zlata and son Vitek to get a new quest "The Worker", during which you will look for the hunter Voislav. Step 7: Completing the Quest

After completing the "Little Worker" quest, talk to Voislav, who will return home. Then head to the gypsy camp and follow the marker south until a cutscene starts. You will either have to escape from the wolves or fight them using your weapons and Barbos' help.
