Should You Help the Miners in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2? (Post Scriptum Quest Guide)

Navigating the choices in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, particularly within the main and side quests, can be challenging. This guide focuses on the Post Scriptum side quest and whether assisting the miners is the optimal choice.

Initiating Post Scriptum:

The Post Scriptum quest begins in the Kuttenberg region. Locate the tavern west of Kuttenberg city and speak with Kvyertsolav to initiate the quest. You'll be tasked with writing a letter for the miners. The wording of the letter doesn't significantly impact the outcome.

The Letter and its Consequences:

After writing the letter, the miners will attempt to harm you. A successful Speech check allows you to de-escalate the situation.

Should You Betray the Miners?

You have the option to hand the miners over to the bailiff. This ends the quest immediately, yielding a paltry 100 groschen. This is not the recommended path.

Helping Markold or the Miners?

Delivering the letter to Markold presents further choices: blackmail, delivering the letter directly, or collaborating with Markold to subdue the miners. Blackmailing Markold is difficult and prematurely concludes the quest.

Aiding Markold results in killing three miners and a meager 60 groschen reward. This is the least favorable outcome.

The best approach is to deliver the letter to Markold as instructed. He'll provide seven groschen and direct you to meet miners north of the city. Assist the miners in defeating Markold. This yields a 160 groschen reward and a more satisfying resolution, improving the miners' working conditions.

In conclusion, helping the miners in the Post Scriptum quest in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 offers the most rewarding outcome, both financially and morally. For more Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 guides and strategies, including advice on other quests and romance options, consult The Escapist.
