Stealth is a key strategy for completing certain quests in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, and it's essential for successfully navigating the "Storm" quest. This mission is crucial as it concludes the main quests in the Trosky Region and transitions you into the Kuttenberg Region. Starting "Storm" places you in a challenging scenario similar to "For Whom the Bell Tolls," where you're stripped of your armor, weapons, and even Saviour Schnapps, all while suffering from reduced health and stamina due to prior torture.
Upon beginning "Storm," your first step is to gather gear from the guards that Katherine neutralized during your prison break. While the armor and weapons aren't top-notch, they're a vital upgrade from nothing. Katherine also hands you her dagger, which is perfect for executing stealth kills. Your next move is to ascend the Crone in Trosky, where you'll encounter guards. However, their spacing allows you to either knock them out or use distractions to sneak past them unnoticed.
With Toth defeated and your gear recovered, head back to the dungeon to reunite with your companions. They'll gear up, and together, you'll navigate the escape tunnels, making this part of the quest relatively straightforward.

The hills section of "Storm" is where stealth becomes truly challenging. Keeping your conspicuousness to a minimum is crucial to avoid detection by guards, who will alert each other if you're spotted, leading to confrontations with multiple enemies. Your compromised stats from the torture make stealth kills and knockouts more difficult.
"Storm" is one of the few quests in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2* that mandates stealth, making prior investment in stealth skills and perks highly beneficial for remaining undetected.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is available now on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
