Repairing Clothes, Weapons and Armor

Keep your gear in top shape! Learn how durability and quality affect your equipment in Kingdom Come: Deliverance II and discover the best ways to repair clothes, weapons, and armor.

Alright, so you've been out there fighting, adventuring, and probably taking a few hits, right? That means your gear is probably looking a bit rough. In Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, pretty much everything you wear and wield has a durability stat. As you use it, especially in combat or just tromping around, it degrades. Think of it like this: torn clothes might make you more noticeable and less charismatic, dented armor won't protect you as well, and a blunted sword just won't hit as hard. It’s a core survival mechanic, so keeping your stuff in good nick is pretty important.

Now, your gear also has a quality level – Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Henry's own special tier. Higher quality items are just better, plain and simple. But here's the kicker: if an item takes too much damage, it can actually degrade to a lower quality seal, even after you repair it! And if an item loses all its durability? It's broken, permanently useless. You'll see little icons next to your health bar if something's in really bad shape, so pay attention to those!

Repairing Your Kit

Here’s where things get a little more involved than just hitting a 'repair' button. Kingdom Come: Deliverance II likes to keep things realistic, so you can't just walk up to any old merchant. Blacksmiths fix your weapons and armor, tailors handle your clothes, and so on. You'll need to find the right specialist for the job. It can be a bit of a scavenger hunt, but thankfully, most clothes don't need constant attention. Your armor and weapons, however, will likely see a lot of action, so you'll be visiting blacksmiths pretty often. Shoes are another thing that wear out from just walking around, so keep an eye on those too.

But who has time to track down the right merchant all the time? That's where repair kits come in handy. They let you fix your gear on the go. There are different kits for different items: an Armourer's Kit, Blacksmith's Kit, Cobbler's Kit (for shoes!), and a Tailor's Kit. It's a really good idea to keep an Armourer's Kit, Blacksmith's Kit, and Cobbler's Kit with you, as those are the items most likely to need fixing. These kits are pretty cheap, usually around 30 groschen, and you can buy them from most merchants. Just remember, the repair kits themselves have durability, and using them up to fix your gear will decrease their own effectiveness over time. The more damaged your gear is, the more durability it'll chew through.
