Hey folks! I’m in a bit of a jam in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. I’ve got a hefty 8000 groschen fine for thefts in Sigismund’s camp, and my only way out seems to be through branding. Can anyone share how bad the consequences of branding are? Also, is there any chance to avoid it, even if I fail skill checks with the guards?

I had a similar issue in Semine for some wrong turns I took! I had a bounty of around 4k groschen for some misunderstandings. What I did was focus on doing quests to boost my reputation over about a week in-game. Once my rep hit 100 with everyone, the guards eased off and I wasn’t being hunted anymore. So, if you can rack up some positive rep, that might help you out here!
Branding is pretty rough. Not only does it leave a permanent mark, but it also affects your reputation, making traders hesitant to do business with you for a few days until the brand fades. Plus, it could lead to a bad ending for your character’s story, so it’s definitely worth considering your options before going down that route.
That sounds like a solid plan! I’ll try to boost my rep before making any rash decisions. Thanks for the tip!
