InYou can unlock a whole series of useful perks for the main character Heinrich in the course of the game. Among other things, these give him permanent advantages in combat, let him sneak better or preserve bonuses when brewing potions.
There was already a similar perk system in the predecessor and a look at Reddit has now revealed that some fans would also like a very specific skill from the first part in KCD2.
KCD1-PERK provided higher chances of a knockout during a fight
What kind of perk is that?It is the perk "headcracker" (German skull breaker), which is part of the strength skills of the role-playing game and has the following effect according to the in-game description.
"There is a 10% higher chance that your opponent will knock your opponent on your head."
Headcrackers apparently found many in fighting to be very practical. Among other things, the higher chance of knocking out someone offered opportunities to search for the width or rob it with possibly superior opponents without killing it directly.

"I think you get so strong in the game that you just don't need the perk. Heinrich level from the potion of ruin to arrows and bolts delete an entire warehouse of bandits without you having to notice it at all."
Especially in the later course of the game, the PERK might have been "senseless". Whether that was the reason that Warhorse did not implement the skill is of course pure speculation.
Even if all perks in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 have an effective benefit, the selection may be overwhelming for beginners. Below you will find Stephan's tips for the best perks at the start. In any case, it is important that you know that you have to actively unlock perks and do not get automatically - that can be overlooked.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 appeared in February 2025 for the PS5, Xbox Series X/S and the PC and is already one of the highlights of the year with its enormously detailed world and the many playful freedom. Developer Warhorse has already announced further content for this year, including several paid story extensions.
