In the story mission Civitas Pragensis in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, players face a tough choice: accept Erik's challenge to a duel or ignore him. In this material, we will analyze in detail the consequences of each decision and share tips that will help defeat the opponent.
A friend will be waiting at the exit of the inner courtyard. Just ask why he is not sitting with everyone to find out that the guy is upset about Kubenka's death.
Friends are sitting at the table in front of the kitchen entrance. You can exhaust all the answers in the dialogue and slightly increase your reputation.
Regardless of whether you had a romance with Rosa, you can say goodbye to the girl. She stands near the cart in the outer courtyard of the castle. Here you will also see Ptachek talking to Bocek. Choose "We need Ptachek" to slightly increase your reputation.
As soon as Lady Rosa leaves with her father, a soldier will ride up to the castle gates. The rider will be Kubenka, whom Erik captured and then released. He did this not out of the goodness of his heart, but so that the man would deliver a challenge to a fight for Indro.
If you tell Kubenka that you need to think or you will fight, after the dialogue, at any time, approach the soldier at the gate and say that you need to leave. This will start the additional activity "Defeat Erik!". If you refuse the duel, the quest "So it begins..." will start immediately.
Accepting the challenge, pass the skill check "Coercion". This will slightly simplify the battle. But don't expect an easy walk, as the fight with him is a real challenge for KCD2 players, as Erik is the strongest enemy in the game. Pre-use potions to increase stamina and restore health. Also equip armor with head protection.
He has a lot of health, so the fight can stretch out for a long time. We recommend following the standard tactic: parry and counterattack. Do not spam attacks; it is better to wait for the moment and counterattack to avoid taking damage.
