For Whom The Bell Tolls is one of the trickiest missions in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2. If you’ve gotten around 10 – 12 hours into the game (depending on your playstyle), you might be stuck on this quest. Fear not – I’m here to provide a full For Whom The Bell Tolls guide, showing you the fastest way to get it done.
Be warned – there are major story spoilers ahead. If you’ve not attended the wedding in Semine, do not read any further.
For Whom The Bell Tolls starts with Henry down on his luck in Trosky Castle, tasked with becoming a forced worker of sorts as a repentance for his misdeeds at the wedding in Semine. Immediately, players are plunged into a dire set of circumstances, having all their items stripped from them – including clothing, food items, and even precious Saviour Schnapps potions.
You’re also against the clock in this mission, and you’re in a location that’s riddled with guards, trespass zones, and other dangers.
It’s not impossible to complete the mission, though – this is my full For Whom The Bell Tolls guide, step-by-step. It’s the fastest and safest way to complete the quest.
This is where you’ll be tasked with hefting sacks of coal, but if you dismiss that job straight away, you can get to work. It’s worthwhile completing some of the side missions and extra tasks littered around the castle for skill point gains, but you don’t need to.
Head inside the courtyard and make for the second gate, heading deeper into the castle grounds.
On the opposite side of the courtyard to where you enter, you’ll see this blacksmith area – there will be a box on this shelf with a lockpick inside. You’ll need this for later.
It’s time to get sneaky. Head through this archway and along the path until you come to two doors – take the one on the right.
From this point, you’ll want to start sneaking.
He’s not here in the image above, but this is exactly where you’ll see a guard as you come up the stairs. You need to go this way, so crouch and throw a rock against the window to distract him away from the staircase before proceeding up.
There are no restrictions here and you should be free to run up the many steps to the top of the tower. It’s here that you’ll meet Captain Thomas again. He can help you with your all-important task – but he has fallen ill and you’re tasked with securing a potion to help him out.
Fortunately, I can help you figure out how to do that.
Once you’ve pushed past that guard, it’s almost plain sailing back into the courtyard.
You’ll now want to head up this staircase on the opposite side of the courtyard. Again, this section will require active stealth.
Once you reach this room, you’ll want to keep heading up, up, up.
Go through this door – you shouldn’t encounter any guards here.
Katherine is back again, but aside from a light conversation, she offers almost nothing. You’ll need to solve this task by yourself.
On the shelf here sits a Physician’s Book, which you’ll need to learn about the Fever Tonic, the thing you need to complete For Whom The Bell Tolls in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2.
This chest holds everything you need to make Fever Tonic in For Whom The Bell Tolls. If you’ve never performed any Alchemy before, it’s not all that tough. The game will walk you through it, so don’t fear.
While you’re here, don’t forget to check other Alchemy guides, such as where to find Belladonna in KCD2.
Once you’ve brewed the potion, it’s time to get moving.
You’ll want to repeat steps 4 – 7 to get back to Captain Thomas and give him the potion, easing his malady and completing For Whom The Bell Tolls.
That’s the fastest quest guide for For Whom The Bell Tolls that you’ll find online. Best of luck!
