Best Badges in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, Ranked
10. Badge of Defense
For those who encounter opponents relying on powerful badges, the Badge of Defense is a game-changer. It neutralizes the effects of your opponent's badges, rendering their perks ineffective. Available in Tin, Silver, and Gold, each version counters badges of the same quality. It's the perfect countermeasure against players using Warlord or Doppelganger badges. You can purchase it from Karl von Unterbruck at Under the Bridge in Trosky or from Minstrel Roxanne at random roadside camps.
9. Badge of Fortune
When the dice aren't rolling in your favor, the Badge of Fortune can be your savior. It allows you to reroll selected dice once per game, helping you avoid a bust. The Tin version lets you reroll one die, Silver two, and Gold three. You can obtain this badge by pickpocketing or looting Vauquelin Brabant in Raborsch.
8. Badge of Transmutation
The Badge of Transmutation offers the ability to change a die after rolling. The Gold version transforms any die into a 1, the Silver into a 5, and the Tin into a 3. Since 1 and 5 can score independently, this badge is crucial for maintaining your scoring streak. It's available for purchase from Henslin Schaber at roadside camps.
7. Badge of Might
If you're aiming to land high-scoring combos, the Badge of Might is essential. It adds an extra die to your roll, increasing your chances of hitting valuable sets. The Gold version can be used three times per game, while Silver and Tin have more limited uses. You can find it by looting a hard lockpicking chest in Bathhouse Owner Adam's office in Kuttenberg.
6. Warlord’s Badge
The Warlord’s Badge can turn the tide in a single round by boosting your points. The Tin version increases your points by 25%, Silver by 50%, and Gold doubles them. You can buy it from Innkeeper Weighman in Kuttenberg or from tavern staff.
