Handling the Wandering Drunk in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2: Tips and Strategies

In *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, you'll encounter a diverse array of NPCs, ranging from friendly to hostile. Among these, the Wandering Drunk can be a puzzling figure. Here's a guide on what to do when you encounter this character.

Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 Wandering Drunk Location

The Wandering Drunk is located in an abandoned barn just north of Semine, off the beaten path from the main roads. As you travel north, you'll encounter a herdsman who will warn you about a dangerous vagabond lurking nearby. Proceed to the barn, and you'll spot a Beggar NPC sitting outside. This character becomes hostile if you approach too closely. Unfortunately, there's no way to interact with him peacefully; you'll need to engage in combat, either killing or knocking him out.

After defeating him, you can loot his body to find a gemstone ring, some keys, and 2.7 groschen. Additionally, exploring the barn itself will yield other items that you can sell or use later in your journey.

What to Do With the Door and Chest Keys?

The game provides no explicit information about the identity of the Wandering Drunk. He may be a reference to a similar Beggar NPC from the original game, who also lost everything and became a vagabond without further quest involvement. It's probable that the Wandering Drunk is someone who has lost his home and family, and the keys found on his body are likely remnants of his past life, serving as atmospheric detail rather than functional items.

Many other NPCs in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2* carry keys that have no clear purpose, suggesting that the Wandering Drunk's keys fall into this category as well.
