all right everyone today's video is
going to be about the best perks and
skills in Kingdom Come deliverance by
category now to save a little bit of
time and also to promote the fact that
there is so much diversity possible
within the game I will not be telling
you the perfect allocation or what is it
honestly in my opinion the perfect
allocation there are definitely other
combinations out there I won't be
telling you all of the different perks
that you should be getting with your
skills I'm only gonna tell you one or
two or maximum of three within each
category that are extremely extremely
powerful that way you can put everything
else into other ones you can build your
character extremely different from mine
or extremely different from other
people's
and still have a great unique experience
while also having increased efficiency
and getting a lot of the really strong
benefits without further ado let's get
started with main level which is the
largest amount of perks available in one
single category and I do count first aid
as one single tree of perks or one
single perk upgrade even though it does
take three points it enables you to use
bandages early on then it becomes 25%
increased efficiency to bandages and it
also applies your healing skill in
dialogues and then first eighty three
just means that you only have to use one
bandage even when your limbs are
extremely damaged and you are accessing
more dialogue options so it just opens
up a tree of possibilities within the
game when talking to NPCs and also makes
it a lot more convenient so you don't
have to carry around a lot of bandages
so I think that first day it is a double
pronged talent to grab and it's very
useful
the second talent or perk that I highly
recommend is burger the reason for this
is that most of the vendors or important
NPC's in the entire game are located in
either towns or villages therefore when
you're getting a permanent +1 bonus on
strength agility vitality and speech in
those areas you will gain access to
better dialogue options you'll have
better roles against their skill checks
and you'll be able to increase you know
your your haggling and various other
areas while talking to important
characters so burger is a very very good
talent to have the third recommendation
for main level kind of goes off of your
personal play style if you are you know
typically a criminal and you found that
you have low reputation in a lot of
areas and that's the way you like to
play the game you know you're committing
a lot of crimes then infamous with a low
reputation in a given area you also get
a +1 bonus on strength speed agility and
vitality but your
mutation rises much faster than usual
and the penalties for serving jail time
are less you can't combine it with local
hero which is the second perk but if you
are committing a lot of crimes and you
want to be in the criminal storyline
path then the the negative of this won't
really affect you right you're not gonna
be gaining a lot of reputation ever so
you know you're fine to just commit more
crimes and then you'll also get this
permanent bonus which will help you get
out of sticky situations with guards etc
so if you are a criminal
then select infamous and if you're not
if you're trying to be a hero in the
land if you're trying to be a positive
moral upstanding character then select
local hero if your reputation is high in
an area you get the same bonuses
strength speech agility and vitality but
at the same time your reputation Falls
much faster and it can't be combined so
if you are a criminal select infamous
and if you are a hero select local hero
both of these have very good bonuses the
rest of your perk allocation in main
level is completely flexible there are
some that increased strength or charisma
or speech or you know various other
things but those are some bare-bones
bonuses that are extremely helpful no
matter what type of play style you're
going for and will boost your efficiency
a lot of the way next we have the
strength tree and there are only two
talents that I'm going to recommend two
perks rather but one of them does
require three same as the first aid in
the main level number one is going to be
mule mule allows you to carry more more
weight in your inventory and I think
that it is one of the best things to
have in the game for quality of life
convenience you get 15 pounds more from
mule 1 and I would recommend that mule 2
you get 20 pounds more and mule 3 you
get 25 pounds more weight this is kind
of the difference between you know
carrying a lot more items to sell and
thus netting a lot more gold or groschen
and not being able to do that having to
leave stuff behind so I have a very high
carry capacity my horse also has a very
high carry capacity and I'm very rarely
struggling to get things to vendors so I
do recommend mule one two and three for
three points and then the second talent
that I recommend is tight grip your
stamina regeneration will not slow down
in combat even on the weapon back swing
this means that you can fight and you
know pull off a lot more combos a lot
more often and it is extremely powerful
you'll notice that once you select this
perk you very rarely have any problems
in combat with stamina regeneration even
if you're injured so tight grip is
highly
depending on your fighting style you can
also get things like clinch master which
are very strong but just a general rule
of thumb and selecting towns that are
universally powerful in the game and
will be helpful no matter what you're
doing or how you're playing mule and
tight grip are probably the best two
choices outside of that of course
there's customization I'll probably say
this with every single skill or category
you can always select different ones but
these are some that are very very
helpful in my opinion moving on we have
the agility tree and honestly there
aren't a ton of talents here that I find
to be super powerful there really isn't
anything that jumps out at me as being
the best thing to grab if you get
perfect throws and you have a better
chance of throwing winning dice and you
can use loaded dice so it becomes a very
effective way to earn money but there
really isn't anything that jumps out as
super important if you're a light
armored wearing person if you really
prefer to have mobility and light armor
on instead of plate armor then you can
grab the light armor perk fast striker
is very nice if you're using an agility
based weapon but there are not a whole
lot of things here that are essential to
grab so I would recommend depending on
your play style fast striker if you're
using any short sort of short sword and
then light armor if you're not using
plate armor and then maybe featherweight
I guess featherweight if you have to
select one if I had to recommend one
because there will be some instances
where you are falling to get to certain
Easter egg nests or you know stuff like
that you will take some falling damage
so taking 30% less is pretty nice here
for vitality we have some very very
interesting ones number one that I
recommend is human dustbin you can
dispel hunger with anything you won't
suffer from eating poisoned or spoiled
food but neither will you have any
positive effect from it does not apply
to alcohol the thing that makes this so
appealing is that food spoils fairly
quickly unless you select a lot of
different perks food is going to spoil
in your inventory or your horses
inventory or your supply chest very fast
and it will then give you a debuff when
you consume it this allows you to eat
whatever's in your inventory regardless
of quantity or quality and not suffer
any penalties and the benefits that you
are thus avoiding are not even that
strong so human dustman to me is a super
quality of life perk to just make
progressing through the game that much
easier and make it convenient to just
keep your character nourished the second
talent that I think is the best here in
the vitality tree is blood rush after
beating your first opponent you get
50% attack bonus and your stamina will
regenerate 1/4 faster there are a ton of
fights in the game that have more than
one person there are some single you
know opponent duels against hard-hitting
opponents but they're rare they're few
and they're far between so blood rush is
gonna allow you to kill one opponent and
then have a huge advantage moving on to
the next combat in this game is not that
well balanced further on once you get
strong you feel like a jug or not
nothing can touch you and you're ripping
through opponents with ease and blood
rush is one of the ways to maximize that
and be able to tear through everyone
especially when there's a lot of
opponents the third talent that I
recommend is revenant and this will
allow your health to regenerate
gradually even if you have taken a large
amount of damage it won't be something
overpowered where it just zips back up
to full health but it will you know let
you go between fight to fight to fight
without having to sleep it won't you
know keep your health super low there
won't be an instance where you're scared
and you can't fast travel because you
might get attacked and you're super low
on health and you need to go save and
you don't have any you know Savior snaps
or however you pronounce that in your
inventory revenant will allow you to
regenerate your health without having to
do any of those things and without
having to worry it will take a little
bit of time but it's a really great
quality of life crap it does require
minimum level 12 and it's the last perk
in the tree but I do recommend grabbing
it and saving at least one point for it
there's a lot of other great perks in
this tree as well situationally but
those are the ones that I believe to be
the best overall in a Universal approach
something like balanced diet requires
you to eat a certain way for five
consecutive days that might not always
be possible so again they're all
situational and I don't feel that
they're as valuable as the three that
I've mentioned moving on we have the
speech skill and among these talents
there is one that I recommend above all
else and that is silver tongue the
reason for this is because there is a
technique where you do what I call
reverse haggling where you pay more for
an item or you sell an item for less
kind of in the opposite approach so what
you would normally want to do to
increase your own profits this will
boost your reputation with a vendor and
with an entire region and while you're
doing this since you will be doing this
over and over and over to maximize the
gain over a short period of time you
will be increasing your speech skill
because you are haggling so silver
tongue is the absolute best talent that
I can see in this
Beechtree because of its double effect
while also increasing your reputation
the other recommendation that I have is
selecting either highborn or lowborn
highborn being a skill that increases
your speech level by three when you talk
to nobles and wealthy people and then
lowborn being a skill which increases
speech by three yet again when talking
to commoners I would select either one
of these they are mutually exclusive you
can't have both but if you have lowborn
it will help with a lot of vendors and
drastically increase your speech there
and let you get out of some sticky
situations and Highborne gives access to
some really cool dialogue options with
nobles and wealthy people so that's a
really good one as well one of these two
depending on who you want to prioritize
in your playthrough moving on to the
combat tree we have defense first up and
there is only one talent in this tree
that I consider to be of specific note
and that is well-worn you're able to put
on your armor so cleverly that it's real
weight is one-third lighter than its
actual weight in the inventory the
reason for this is because like a lot of
other talents it will reduce the amount
of weight that you're carrying and give
you more space in your inventory for
loot and that is a great quality of life
boost throughout the entirety of the
game so well-worn will actually have a
huge impact and a huge effect because
there are so many different armor pieces
in the layered armor system so well worn
in my opinion is the best talent in the
defense tree but it does require minimum
level 12 takes a long time to get there
I'm sure that there will be people that
state that other talents are better in
better in different situations but
that's the only one that I think is
universally applicable to everyone's
playthrough and the other ones feel free
at your discretion to select them but
that's the one that I wanted to
highlight now we have the warfare tree
which is one of the better trees in the
game for combat go figure obviously due
to the name but it also has a lot of
really good talents in it number one
that I recommend is furious the lesser
maximum stamina the greater injury you
caused this can have a really positive
effect in fights where you are getting
injured and you know taking a lot of
health damage and your stamina is
getting lowered in tandem to that so
furious is a very effective talent for
making sure that you are never at a
severe disadvantage even when you are
taking a lot of damage so I highly
recommend furious though it may be a
little bit more situational if you do
have a really good armor then you're
gonna have decreased efficiency from
this talent next is sadist when you draw
an opponent's blood it gives you a Plus
Ones
bonus it's very easy to do that against
anything other than a fully heavily
armored plate armor Knight plate male
night then you are going to be able to
draw blood very easily with either the
first or the second stroke so satus will
give you a plus 1 strength bonus in the
majority of fights even if they do have
a helmet on you can sometimes draw blood
from the face area or various other you
know situations so say this is very
strong then change strike each blow in
an uninterrupted chain will hurt your
opponent more than the previous one any
interruption will cancel the bonus this
makes your combos the ultimate damage
machine even half of a combo will be
able to drop even the strongest opponent
for some reason this is highly effective
and even then they have some balancing
problems now with combat wear when you
finally get fully decked out and you get
a really good weapon nothing can stand
up to you anymore anyways but change
strike again emphasizes that and then
the final talent that I would recommend
is against all odds again there very few
you know hard or difficult fights where
you're only fighting one opponent you'll
have 20% greater strength agility
warfare and defense in a fight where
you're outnumbered now 20% is a lot
that's 1/5 greater and if you do have
any you know high amount of stat points
in any one of those categories in my
case I have 18 strengths right now I'll
have 20% more which is a significant
boost it's not just one point or two
points it's quite a few points there so
against all odds I don't have it here it
is a minimum level 12 attribute but I
highly recommend that one as well for
the axe tree there's only three and it
doesn't really matter they're just
combos so pick whatever ones you like or
grab all three for the mace same deal
they're just combos and for the sword
all gloss over all of them I've picked
quite a few but again you can pick
whichever ones you feel fit your weapon
type better or your playstyle better
they're just combos so pick them
memorize them train with them and then
use them now we move on to general
skills and we can start with alchemy as
you can see I have level 1 alchemy I
haven't brewed anything on this
character in particular but there are a
couple of things towards the end of the
tree that I highly recommend in the
beginning here before we get to that in
the beginning I would recommend trial
and error
it does require minimum level 5 but when
you're brewing you can make one extra
mistake without affecting the result
which just means that you're more likely
to get the potion that you want which
will help with leveling and get you up
to those higher tiers where the real
useful trades are up in the higher tiers
at rank 10
I highly recommend routine one you can
now auto brew potions you have brewed
once before but you can only brew one
this means you can just simply select
the potion from the recipe book and then
pop one out boom done perfect you can
sell those items there very easy to
construct they require you know minimal
amounts of herbs and it's really
convenient and then the cats to cap it
all off and be the most amazing talent
in the tree you have Auto brewing will
produce three potions for the price of
one this means that you can now pump out
potions at triple the pace you can sell
two of them keep one or just use all of
them and you can auto brew them from the
recipe book so routine one and two are
by far the best things that you can get
here but they do require minimum level
10 and then 13 so until that point you
should grab trial and error to make
things easier there are some other
really cool talents in this tree like
venomous blade poison applied to a
weapon will remain on the blade longer
if you're trying to go for some kind of
stealth agility build with light armor
and a poison weapon there are some
really cool talents and I'm not trying
to say that they're bad or that you
shouldn't use them I'm just trying to
recommend some of the ones that I feel
are the best and that's why I'm only
recommending a few because there's
flexibility for everyone watching the
video to select other things besides the
ones that I that I say are quite good
next we have the drinking tree which is
really cool that they added this to the
game in my opinion but there's not a lot
here that I find to be very powerful I'm
not gonna review each and every one
there's only one that jumps out as me as
being quite strong and that is loose
tongue when drunk you get a 50% bonus on
speech and charisma
when hungover these stats drop by 50%
the thing that I found is that a lot of
people use the drinking tree or you know
beer or wine or whatever to increase
their charisma and speech before
important dialogue options because
that's one of the primary applications
of the drinking skill or function in the
game
so if you're getting a 50% bonus to
speech and charisma for that duration
for those dialogue options that's
amazing The Hangover you can just wait
the hangover out or sleep it off
whenever you want but when you are
consuming that alcohol to get that bonus
and had those better dialogue checks and
those better dialogue options a 50%
bonus does not hurt at all so loose
tongue is one of the best talents that
I've seen here for specific situations
where you have a quest where you need to
have a desired outcome loose tongue is
absolutely going to help
now we have the herbalism tree and there
are three talents that I highly
recommend
number one is resistance just pick
enough poisonous herbs that it will
increase your vitality by permanent +2
that's really easy to get and super nice
to have the next is flower power if
you've got enough fragrant herbs in your
inventory you get a plus to charisma
bonus that's quite a lot of charisma and
it's very easy to have that many herbs
in your inventory they don't weigh
hardly a thing I can just keep them on
you and then you'll have that plus 2
bonus I don't even have it active right
now but that's an easy plus 2 to
charisma and then the third one let me
get to level 10 which I'm almost added
would take me about five minutes to get
to level 10 now you can grab a leg day
herb picking activity will add
experience to your strength stat too so
that becomes a double method of training
as well as gathering money so leg day in
the herbalism tree is really good once
you're at level 10 next is the
horsemanship tree and there's not a lot
in this tree that I find to be
universally effective or very important
across the board the only thing though
is that I've seen a lot of people
recommending you know mounted combat and
they are right mounted combat is quite
effective if you have you know a bow and
arrow and you're mounted on your horse
you can run away they sprint after you
they never have enough stamina to catch
you you can just pepper them with arrows
well the night perk here you get a 15%
damage bonus in mounted combat with both
range and melee weapons will boost that
efficiency so Knight is the only thing
that I would recommend in the
horsemanship tree outside of that you
can get whatever you want but I don't
view this tree as being super effective
because you're just using the horse for
transit in most situations unless you
really like mounted combat but I think
it's a little bit janky some people have
said that the combat in general is a
little bit messed up which I don't agree
with but I think mounted combat it's a
little bit harder seems like an
afterthought honestly in the game but
Knight will increase your power from
horseback especially with the bow so
Knight is the recommendation here next
is the hunting tree and there's a lot of
really good things to grab here and a
lot of these things increase the amount
of coin yield per kill while you are
hunting antlers butcher 10 or huntsman
all of them tanner I guess would be my
recommendation you're able to skin any
animal that you kill it's not you know
confined to just deer or just boar or
just rabbits tanner is going to give you
a skin from every hunted animal which
increases the amount
golde you're getting in a lot of
situations so tanner is quite good and
then down here is steak tartare
you can now eat raw meat this may not
seem like much but when you're out in
the wilderness you don't really want to
be travelling back and forth and if you
do get hungry then it results in you
having to fast travel as soon as you can
eat any raw meat it makes it a lot
easier to stay topped up on your
nourishment so steak tartare is a good
perk to get at minimum level 13 it is
the last one in the tree and there are
other good ones out there but I
recommend tanner and steak tartare next
we have lock-picking which a lot of
people dislike the current system and
they are working on changing the system
and improving it but once you have these
two perks it really doesn't matter
anyways even on console people disagree
with the controller stick way that it
works but once you have these it won't
matter
lasting lock picks your lock picks will
be more durable and lasts twice as long
and it only requires minimum level three
since I got this talent I have never
once broken a lock pick I don't know if
that's a glitch I don't know what the
reasoning behind that is but this does
not this is not double the amount of
time that they last this I've literally
never broken a lockpick since I got this
so this is absolutely the highest
recommend recommended talent in lock
picking in my opinion and then deft grip
the starting position when lock picking
will be closer to the end of the lock
making it easier to open this just
decreases the amount of time that you're
gonna spend lock picking it just makes
it easier to pick every single lock and
if you combine that with lasting picks
you'll really be able to just tear
through I was level a four or five and I
was picking you know very hard and
master level locks even though the
system is quite difficult to master at
first so lasting lock picks and deft
grip next we have the maintenance tree
and there are a ton of things in this
tree that are very cool to have things
like serrated edge tin-opener blacksmith
son I'll let you guys figure out all the
different individual ones for yourselves
but the one that I wanted to highlight
and talk about specifically is stuffing
if you read when you repair your own
armor you're able to Pat it so it
doesn't jangle as much and lower your
stealth ability as you can see over on
the right hand side of the screen I'm in
full plate armor and my noise is only 41
and that's still quite high I could
lower this yet again if I continued to
repair my own armor and repair every
piece I can get my noise rating down to
about zero that means I'm walking
is a fully armored plate armored Knight
and I have zero noise I mean I don't
know if this is a glitch yet again there
are some problems with the game it's a
fantastic experience but there are some
you know technical issues I don't know
if that's a glitch I don't think that
you should be able to walk around in
full plate Armour and have zero noise
but you can with the stuffing perk so
just go buy some of the armor kits from
from an Armour vendor and then repair
your own armor and you'll be able to
have zero noise with full heavy armor
next up is pickpocketing and this is
honestly one of the most difficult
things that I have yet been able to
master as you can see it's level 2 and I
can't even claim that I have my other
character with a higher pickpocketing
skill in fact I think my other character
is lower pickpocketing is extremely
difficult for me to do I always get
caught but secret pockets at minimum
level 2 will give you increased money
when looting and looting is something
that I do all the time so secret pockets
is really nice I would recommend that
but outside of that a lot of these
things you have to get very high in the
in the pocket pickpocket skill tree to
even see or to unlock immediately
reveals three of the items in a
pickpocket victims inventory or three
which is all of them you have a lot of
these talents which are which are good
they're good for pickpockets and you can
make some money but it just doesn't seem
very viable or reasonable or fun to me
so pickpocketing if that's your cup of
tea I respect you a lot but personally
secret pockets is the only thing that I
would recommend getting or caring about
from this tree now we have the reading
tree and there are a lot of really
useful things here towards the end of
the tree you have stuff like
cartographer the whole map is revealed
to you showing all settlements hunting
spots and caves I am actually working
towards that right now on my other
character so that I can you know show
the secret locations of like every
single chest in caves etc but I'm not
there yet and on this one I have very
low reading skill but in the flow when
reading you get tired and hungry twice
as slowly as normal I don't know why
they set it that way or freeze it that
way I feel like they should have just
said half as fast instead of twice as
slowly but whatever in the flow is
pretty good
I will decrease the amount of
nourishment loss that you have and make
it so you can read more in one sitting
so that's another one that's really good
for training and then there are the
magistrate ones you have magistrate one
which is being well learned you make a
better impression when people get a
plus-one speech bonus when trying to
persuade a guard this means if you
commit a crime and a guard catches you
then you have a better chance of your
speech bonus being high enough to get
away from that encounter and to not pay
anything and also not go to jail and
then if you bring that up to magistrate
two and then three you'll have a plus
three bonus which makes it almost
guarantee that you will be able to out I
guess linguistically trick you'll be out
you'll be able to out talk the guard and
get away from that scot-free so
magistrate one two and three recommend
it I guess cartographer it's really nice
if you get all the way to the end of the
tree and then in the flow to help with
training last up we have the stealth
tree and the only thing that I consider
worth note here is stealth kill allows
you to kill from stealth you have to
have a dagger in your inventory I think
that's one step above takedown though
you don't want to be using this all the
time because sometimes you can end up
killing a valuable NPC so use takedown
sometimes self kill other times you can
get more loot from this you know you can
take out NPCs from camps bandit camps
etc that you don't want their spell kill
is useful and there are a lot of other
useful talents in the tree they're just
more situational so if you want to make
a case for any other perk in the stealth
tree or any other skill tree or / tree
in the game whether it be herbalism or
alchemy or horsemanship or whatever
leave a comment down below and if it's
good information I will pin it to the
top and I would love for more people to
see it you don't have to jump at the
chance to try and argue or prove me
wrong I tried to leave this open-ended
and I would love to have contributing
you know gamers out there add to it and
give their information to help others so
please leave a comment if you have any
other suggestions thank you for that
stell kill the only thing that I
recommend from the stealth tree that's
gonna wrap it up for my complete guide
to the best perks in the game there are
other things that will be useful if
you're trying to go for a different play
style approach if you have different
goals if you just have a different sense
of immersion in the game and you want to
be different and play different
absolutely that's why I left it
open-ended best of luck to you let me
