Kingdom Come Deliverance 2: Choose Your Ally - Prochek or Olbram!

In Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, early side quests in Tachov and Zhelejov offer a choice between aiding Prochek or Olbram. This guide clarifies whether you can help both and which choice is preferable.

Can You Help Both?

While Tachov and Zhelejov are at odds, completing most quests for both Prochek and Olbram is feasible. This provides comprehensive backstory, though a completely favorable outcome for both isn't possible. It does, however, unlock more of the game's content.

Prochek vs. Olbram: Which to Choose?

Ultimately, choosing between Prochek and Olbram has little impact on the overall narrative. Both aim to sabotage the other; the selection boils down to personal preference.

Olbram's task involves stealing Zhelejov's maypole, requiring nighttime stealth and potentially charming a guard. Prochek's quest involves painting Olbram's bull blue, demanding dye from the tailor (Bartoshek in Troskowitz) and a lullaby potion (requiring a recipe from Radovan, plus oil, poppy, and thistle).

Prochek's task presents a slightly higher difficulty, particularly early in the game. Resource limitations (groschen) and Speech skill may hinder progress, making Olbram's quest potentially easier.

Prochek's "Mice" Quest:

Speak to Prochek in Tachov (or the innkeeper if he's unavailable). This initiates the "Mice" quest.

• Dye and Lullaby Potion: Purchase dye from Bartoshek in Troskowitz. Obtain the lullaby potion recipe from Radovan (either work for him or charm him). Gather poppy and thistle from the apothecary garden in Troskowitz. Brew the potion, then proceed to Zhelejov, administer it to the bull, paint the bull, and report back to Prochek.

Olbram's "Frogs" Quest:

Find Olbram near the Zhelejov meadow to begin the "Frogs" quest.

• Steal the Maypole: Go to Tachov at night. Either knock out or charm Henrik (the guard). If charming, initiate a conversation about Manka, arrange a date, and return to Henrik. After he leaves, acquire the maypole. Report to Olbram. He will then request chasing sheep from a Tachov pasture and delivering a digestive potion to Alshik. You can complete this or inform Prochek, concluding both quests.

This concludes the guide on Prochek, Olbram, and their respective quests in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. Further game tips and strategies can be found elsewhere online.
