Should You Side With Laszlo Or Jan In Ransom In Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

In Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, there are some unexpected encounters that you might miss out on. One such encounter takes place in Kuttenberg, close to Denmark. This spontaneous meeting with the Cumans and Jan of Suchotlesky could lead to a side quest called “Ransom.

It is one of the best side missions in the game, and it also features a choice at the end that will impact the quest’s outcome. Here, we will guide you through all of Ransom’s objectives, even the optional ones, as well as the best choice that would lead to the best outcome.

How To Start The Ransom Quest

This quest can only be started after you have completed the main quest, Speak of the Devil. However, we also recommend completing The Devil’s Pack before starting Ransom to get more allies for the battle. Otherwise, it may be difficult to get the best outcome.

To embark on this journey, make your way east from the fast-travel spot in Bylany. Along the riverbank, you’ll encounter a group of Cumans assaulting a wagon and some soldiers. Overpower them first, then engage in conversation with Jan of Suchotlesky. This interaction will trigger the Ransom mission.

If he is injured, you should also help him with his injuries. For us, he was perfectly fine. Jan will then ask you to find his brother in Sigismund’s camp and negotiate on his behalf. Agree to help him and then start heading toward the camp.

Ransom can’t be triggered if you have finished the game. We tried to locate the cart in the area after completing the game, but there was nothing except blood.

How To Find Laszlo Farkas

You will be given a pretty large search radius to find Peter and Laszlo Farkas. Finding the latter is easy, so do that first. Talk to any soldier in the camp, and they will tell you to speak with three different people.

When interacting with Musa, you’ll receive the same details that Father Bohumil would share, but he can also help answer a wide variety of questions. This interaction will significantly boost your scholarship skill experience points.

1. Mark three specific individuals on your map.

2. Speak with each of them, as they will provide you with skill checks that may prove useful later on. However, it is not essential to pass these checks, as they will still guide you to Laszlo Farkas’ tent without requiring them.

His tent is near the north gate. You may notice a red tent west of the north gate on your map. If you can’t locate the tent, then simply ask one of the Cumans in the area for the information, and they will direct you to Laszlo Farkas.

Then, speak to him, and no matter what you do, he will choose his own location. There is a skill check you can pass to get Peter’s armor back; if you fail, he will keep it.

Now that you have talked to him, it is time to find Peter.

How To Find Peter Of Suchotlesky

If you pass skill checks with all three of the people you talked to before, Peter’s location will appear on your map. However, even if you don’t, you can simply head east of the quest marker. There are some white tents and a fence. What you are looking for is a white tent guarded by two soldiers.

You can’t enter it this way, so go to the back of it. There, you will notice a gap in the fence. Go through it while crouching, the tent you are looking for will be on the left. Enter and talk to the prisoner. Apparently, he isn’t Peter, but he will provide you with the necessary information for some food.

If you have anything to eat, give it to him, and he will tell you that Peter is already dead. He will also tell you where you can find the corpse. If you don’t have any food, then you can either get some or pass a skill check.

Now, head to the locations marked on your map where you’ll discover Peter’s remains. There are several carts ahead, so be sure to bypass the ones at the front. Navigate through the opening and proceed towards the rear area. In the center, you will come across a cart with Peter’s body inside.

With the truth revealed, feel free to approach Laszlo next. Head over to his tent and engage in a conversation with him. Although he may continue to refuse your choice of location, you now have the truth on your side.

Report Back To Jan

Now that all of your objectives in Sigismund’s camp are completed, head back to Jan and tell him everything. He will then ask you to gather some reinforcements. You can reject his offer to get revenge, but it will fail the quest, so agree and find some allies.

Previously mentioned, this journey begins immediately following the completion of the “Speak of the Devil” quest. Yet, if you’ve already accomplished “The Devil’s Pack”, you will gain extra companions. To clarify the number of allies available to you, we proceeded to The Lion’s Den quest.

You can recruit your allies from The Devil’s Den. Talk to Kubyenka, and he will agree to offer his assistance. Adder will also join you. While these are both enough, you can also recruit Menhard’s men, but for you that you would need to do Ars Dimicatoria first.

After that, talk to Jan and tell him you are ready. While you can still proceed with the quest even if you don’t get any allies, it will make the rest of it pretty difficult. So make sure to hire at least Kubyenka and Adder, as Jan himself won’t be of any help during the battle.

If you can’t get any allies, then you have no choice but to gear up (if you plan on choosing Jan’s side). Equip your best armor and weapon. Then, talk to Jan, and you will fast-travel to the handoff location.

Should You Side With Laszlo Or Jan

Once you have reached the decided location, you will be given an option to pick a side. You can either side with Laszlo or Jan. If you side with the latter, you would have to kill Laszlo and the Cumans.

With allies, this fight won’t be that difficult. Jan will pass out pretty quickly, but Kubyenka and Adder will hold their ground for a while. In that time, you can defeat Laszlo and a couple of other Cumans and then help your allies.

Once you have defeated your enemies, Jan will stand up and go to the cart. You can talk to him there; he will give you 150 Groschen and his brother’s sword (he won’t hand it over to you; grab it from the back of the cart). He won’t give you Peter’s armor, but you can loot Laszlo’s corpse for some excellent equipment.

If you want to choose Laszlo’s side, then you don’t have to recruit anyone before the battle. Simply tell Jan that you are ready. After traveling to the location, he gets angry when he does not see any allies. Then, you can choose Laszlo’s side and kill Jan. This fight will be over in mere seconds.

After the fight, talk to Laszlo, who will offer you Peter’s sword and armor. The sword is in the back of the cart, and the armor is in the chest. The best outcome is helping Jan, as this way, you can get even better armor from Laszlo’s dead body, along with Peter’s sword and 150 Groschen.

However, the choice totally depends on your preference, so choose whichever you prefer.
