How to Craft the Bull’s Sleeping Potion in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

by

Following an unexpected attack by bandits, Henry and his fellow soldiers find themselves penniless and disguised as beggars in the town of Troskowitz. With minimal possessions, gamers are invited to delve into the game’s expansive environment, scouring forests and deserted camps for weapons, armor, and items to barter. The initial phase of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 presents a grueling yet engaging survival test, compelling players to forage for resources.

In the Trosky Region, gamers will stumble upon several optional missions, one of these being the Mice quest situated in Tachov. Finishing this mission is essential because it triggers a subsequent quest that bestows players with the “Truce“ Trophy/Achievement. Here’s how to accomplish it:

1. First, make your way to Tachov.
2. Once there, seek out the quest giver who will assign the Mice quest.
3. Follow the instructions provided by the quest giver to complete the mission.
4. Upon completion, you’ll unlock the follow-up quest that rewards the “Truce“ Trophy/Achievement.

How To Start The Mice Quest

As a gamer, I’d say: “Head over to the town of Tachov and drop by the local tavern. There, you’ll meet Innkeeper Prochek who’s got a bone to pick with the folks from Zhelejov. They’ve been pulling some tricks on the Tachov people for quite some time now, and he wants revenge. He suggests that Olbram, a landowner in Zhelejov, has a white bull that Prochek wants you to paint – but since the bull is rather lively, we’re talking about quite a challenge here!

To make things easier, I should craft a special potion to knock the bull out. Once that’s done, I can take my time painting without any trouble. Just remember, this is all in good fun, so be careful not to get caught while I’m in Zhelejov.

Ensure you don’t reveal to the residents of Zhelejov that they’re part of a joke, since doing so would sabotage the mission.

Initially, make your way to ‘Blacksmith Radovan’. Inform him that you require a solution to tranquilize an agitated animal. Should you have accomplished the initial task of his questline titled ‘The Blacksmith’s Son‘, he will share the necessary information with you.

Acquiring Paint For The Bull

To obtain what is needed, head over to Tailor Bartoshek in Troskowitz. Request it from him and he may inform you that some remains. He’ll sell it to you for 60 Groschen if you have the funds readily available, allowing you to expedite the transaction.

As an alternative, you could articulate that the paint is beyond your budget by making a successful attempt at a Speech check. This task is relatively simple, and if accomplished, it allows you to express your rationale. Opt to tell him the truth, then continue to listen as he discusses the topic of paint. After listening for a while, he might eventually offer you the paint without charge. The tailor, in addition to selling clothing, can mend your worn garments in exchange for coins known as Groschen.

Using the paint you have, head over to Apothecary Emmerich’s place to concoct the sleep-inducing potion instead.

Crafting The Bull’s Sleeping Potion

Emmerich the Apothecary resides right in the heart of Troskowitz. To concoct the Soothing Sleep Elixir, you’ll need a few essential ingredients, most of which are conveniently nearby. You can purchase Herb Paris directly from Emmerich, whereas Thistle and Poppy can be picked from his garden. Keep in mind that Poppy is slightly further away on the other side of the fence, while Thistle is close to the stone fences.

After collecting all your needed items, make your way to the designated workstation, known as the Alchemy Station, and follow these instructions to concoct the Soothing Melody Elixir.

  • Add all ingredients to the right of the cauldron for easy access.
  • Add Oil, then add the Poppy to the cauldron.
  • Boil for one hourglass duration, then raise the cauldron.
  • Add the Thistle to the cauldron and boil for one hourglass duration.
  • Grind the Herb Paris using a Pestle.
  • Add the Herb Paris to the Cauldron.
  • Pour the potion into a Phial.

To put the big bull to sleep, you’ll require three soothing sleep elixirs, given its massive size. If your concoction ends up being a faint lullaby potion, you might have to collect additional components and go through the process again to brew a more potent variant.

Painting The Bull In Mice Quest

With the concoction and paintbrush clutched tightly, quickly teleport to Zhelejov. Make your way into the barn to engage with the watering trough, carefully pouring the sleeping draught into it so the bull may drink its contents. Bide your time until nightfall when the bull retires to slumber within the barn. If necessary, a Hired Hand may be guarding the premises, so you can hurl a stone to divert his attention before stealthily entering.

Upon entering, engage with the bull to select among various painting choices. Regardless of your decision, it won’t impact the mission’s end result. After you’re done, head back to Tachov and share the news with Prochek. He will pay you 85 Groschen and initiate a new side quest called ““The Battle of Frogs and Mice.”
