Mastering the Longsword in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2: A Comprehensive Guide
Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 offers a diverse arsenal, but longswords stand out for their versatility. This guide highlights the best longswords, balancing speed, power, and reach.
Toledo Steel Sword

Forged from Toledo steel and reforged from a broken sword, this blade boasts impressive stats: 132 stab damage, 125 slash damage, and 25 blunt damage. Requiring Strength 12 and Agility 15, it's accessible relatively early. High durability (159) and defense (194) make it a reliable companion in extended combat. Earn it by completing "The Hermit" quest, a path often pursued when choosing the blacksmith option during the Semine wedding storyline.
Balshan’s Sword
A legendary blade once owned by Sir Jan Posy of Zimburg, this weapon packs a punch with 149 stab damage, 157 slash damage, and 24 blunt damage. However, it demands Strength 14 and Agility 20, making it suitable for advanced players. Its high defense (225) and decent durability (120) ensure it can withstand significant punishment.
Blacksmith’s Defender

This practical longsword prioritizes functionality over flair. While not the most powerful, its 75 stab damage, 86 slash damage, and 32 blunt damage make it a valuable mid-tier option. Its low requirements (Strength 7, Agility 9) make it an excellent early-game choice. Solid defense (126) and durability (99) add to its appeal.
Broad Longsword
Its wider blade enhances durability (200) at the cost of slightly reduced swing speed. The damage output compensates, with 166 stab damage, 158 slash damage, and 32 blunt damage. Strength 16 and Agility 19 are required. Exceptional defense (246) makes it a formidable weapon in prolonged battles. It can be purchased from Blacksmith Zdimir in Grund or crafted using specific materials.
Dry Devil’s Longsword
This finely crafted weapon excels in speed and precision. It offers 157 stab damage, 150 slash damage, and 30 blunt damage. Suitable for skilled swordsmen (Strength 15, Agility 18), it prioritizes technique over raw power.
Godwin’s Longsword
Similar to the Dry Devil's Longsword, but with more balanced stats. It deals 129 stab damage, 123 slash damage, and a noteworthy 73.8 blunt damage. Requiring Strength 16 and Agility 18, it boasts 220 defense and 200 durability, making it a strong contender, particularly in duels.
Hanush’s Sword
Designed for skilled swordplay, this thin, balanced blade delivers 166 stab damage, 158 slash damage, and 32 blunt damage. Strength 16 and Agility 19 are needed. It's a superior choice for fast-paced duels.
Henry’s Longsword

A historically significant weapon, originally forged for Sir Radzig Kobyla. The base version offers 149 stab damage, 142 slash damage, and 28 blunt damage (Strength 14, Agility 17). The reforged version significantly increases these stats, demanding Strength 20 and Agility 23.
Kuttenberg Longsword
A top-tier weapon crafted by Master Enderlin, mirroring a famous guild sword. It boasts 166 stab damage, 158 slash damage, and 32 blunt damage. Strength 16 and Agility 19 are required.
Lord Capon’s Longsword
Similar stats to Henry’s Longsword (149 stab, 142 slash, 28 blunt damage), favoring skillful dueling. It requires Strength 14 and Agility 17. Its exact location remains unclear.
