How to Start Legacy of the Forge DLC in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2
Legacy of the Forge is the second major expansion for Kingdom Come Deliverance 2, following Brushes with Death. Many players want to know how to actually begin the DLC content once they own it. Since it is tied to progression and location requirements, you cannot just jump in from the start of a new game. Here is exactly how to start the Legacy of the Forge DLC.
How to start Legacy of the Forge DLC in KCD2
To begin Legacy of the Forge, you must first reach Kuttenberg. This requires finishing the main story missions in Trosky, then completing two additional quests before Henry can travel to the city. Once in Kuttenberg, head to the eastern side of the city near the pond and Hole in the Wall tavern.
A purple quest marker will appear at an abandoned building, which triggers the start of the DLC storyline.
Steps to unlock the DLC
Finish Trosky main quests
Complete all of the following missions:
Wedding Crashers, For Whom the Bell Tolls, Back in the Saddle, Necessary Evil, For Victory, Divine Messenger, Finger of God, The Storm.
Complete Kuttenberg entry quests
After arriving, finish The Sword and the Quill and Speak of the Devil. These open the way to the DLC content.
Travel to eastern Kuttenberg
Look for the purple quest icon near the pond and Hole in the Wall tavern. Inspect the abandoned building to officially start Legacy of the Forge.
Do you need money or skills to begin
Groschen
You only need a small amount to get started. Upgrades for the forge require Groschen later, but they are also locked behind Prestige, so you can earn funds as you progress.
Blacksmithing skill
High blacksmithing is not required. Only two parts of the DLC force you into smithing sequences, including a guild trial. Henry can prepare for the test by studying a book, so low skill players will not be locked out.
Final Blurb
Starting the Legacy of the Forge DLC in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 means reaching Kuttenberg and following the purple quest icon in the eastern district. Once unlocked, the expansion opens up blacksmithing, Prestige progression, and new armor crafting tied to Henry’s family legacy.
