Siege is the 24th main quest in Kingdom Come Deliverance (KCD).This walkthrough will guide you through all optional objectives of theSiege Main Quest for the Talmberger trophy / achievement.
Siege triggers instantly after completing Night Raid Main Quest.
Completing all optional objectives in the Siege Main Quest unlocks the Talmberger 
trophy / achievement. You must do a lot of tedious tasks for it but aside from the trophy you also earn a lot of Groschen from doing the optional tasks (They give 90 –235 Groschen each).
Halfway through the “Siege” quest another main quest “Cold Steel, Hot Blood” will trigger.The “Siege” quest will be put on hold and you must complete “Cold Steel, Hot Blood” to continue.
Talk to Captain Robard
Robard is walking around the camp where the quest starts. Talk to him.
Pick these dialogues to get all optional objectives available from him:
- He seemed a bit uncertain.
- (Exhaust all other dialogue options)
- Is there anything else I can help with? –> unlocks objective “(Optional) Ask the nearby charcoal-burners if they have any pitch“.
Talk to Master Feyfar
Feyfar is walking around the same camp as Robard, marked on the map. Talk to him. Agree to help him find Konrad Kyeser, a war machine engineer who came to Sasau.
This triggers side quest “Rocketeer“. It’s recommended that you do this quest now in order to get the trebuchet built for the siege.

Talk to the Quartermaster
The quartermaster is marked on the map, go talk to him.
[Quartermaster] There’s not much meat in the camps – I could go and get some
There are two ways to do this: Either hunt animals and carve their meat or buy it from taverns. Buying it from taverns is the easiest solution. Check two taverns and pick the cheapest sorts of meat. In total it will cost you around 60 Groschen (can haggle down the price). Just stick to the cheap types of meat when buying it.
Deliver the meat to the Quartermaster. He gives you 90 Groschen for your troubles.
[Quartermaster] The camp is out of beer – I need to ask around the local taverns for some
The only tavern that can send beer is the “Inn in the Glade”. That’s the one north-west of Neuhof. However, their innkeeper needs to be persuaded first. Even though he has only 10 speech and I had 13 it would not work. So what I did was to drink a “Bard Potion”. It gives +5 speech for 10 minutes. With 18 speech I could convince him. So you need really high speech stat for this.
Bard Potions are sold by every bathhouse proprietor. For example, the bathhouse at Rattay Mill sells it.
After he agrees to send the beer, head back to the Quartermaster. When you talk to him this objective finishes and you earn 90 Groschen as a reward.
Below is the map location of the Inn you need to go to:
Talk to Sir Divish
Go talk to Sir Divish, who is marked on the map (camp near Talmberg).
[Sir Divish] Find a Medicus from the monastery to come to Talmberg
Go to the Sasau monastery and talk to brother Nicodemus, the herbalist in the black robe standing by the alchemy station. He is marked on the map. If you haven’t done Johanka’s In God’s Hands Side Quest yet,Nicodemus will tell youto go see her and triggers a new objective. Johanka is the nurse in the same house as brother Nicodemus, you have to do her side quest now. Otherwise Nicodemus cannot be convinced to help you.

[Sir Divish / Nicodemus] Persuade the sawbones from the monastery to come to Talmberg
After completing Johanka’s side quest “In God’s Hands” you can talk to Nicodemus again. Now that the sick are healed he has time to come with you to Talmberg. This completes the objective.

[Sir Divish] Find a priest willing to go to Talmberg
Go to Uzhitz and talk to Father Godwin. Depending on whether or not youdrank with him inMysterious Ways Main Quest this conversation will differ. If you drank with him, he’s more willing to help.
If you did not drink with him (which was needed for the Virgin trophy), you can convince him with a high enough speech stat. Unlike other persuasions, this one is not selected as a dialogue choice. When asking him for help you’ll either see a “Success” or “Fail” on screen while talking to him. Personally, I had speech level 15 and succeeded. One quick way to boost your speech is by consuming a Bard Potion. It increases speech by 5 levels for 10 minutes. Bard Potion can be bought at any Bathhouse (e.g. Rattay Mill Bathhouse). So if you fail, load the last save, drink a Bard Potion and try again.
If he refuses to help you outright, you can recruit Priest Simon in Rovna instead. However, you must have completed the Side Quest “A Man of the Cloth” to make Simon spawn in Rovna. If you followed this walkthrough in the given order, you will have done this already in the last step when you went to the monastery to heal the sick (it’s a sub-quest needed to complete “In God’s Hands“).
Talk to Captain Bernard
Go talk to Captain Bernard and exhaust all dialogue options with him to get one new objective.
[Captain Bernard] Find out if some herbalist could brew up something to fend off sleep
You get this after talking to Bernard. It will mark 3 locations of Herbalists on your map. Go to the herbalist circled in red below:
[Captain Bernard] Get 120 Mint / 60 Valerian / 12 Wormwood
Talk to the herbalist and agree to help her pick the required herbs. She won’t help you otherwise. You need at least 70 reputation with her to get this option! If you have less than 70 rep, haggle with herand pay more money than she asks for. Keep buying and things from her (or selling them) to increase rep quickly.
You need to get the following herbs:
- 120 Mint: It is rarely found in nature, but rather alongside houses and in gardens cultivated.
- 60 Valerian: To be found on forest paths, in mires and peat bogs and everywhere that ground is damp.
- 12 Wormwood: Abundant grows on roadsides and in fields.
To make it real simple, you could just go to Herbalists / Apothecaries and buy the ingredients from them. They usually carry 10 of each type of herb. You will get 325 Groschen as a reward from Bernard later on, so don’t worry, you’ll more than make back the money you have spent on herbs. Furthermore, herbalists tend to keep a herb garden. These are ripe for the picking and give you 20+ herbs in one quick swoop.
The 12 wormwood are very easy, the herbalist that gave you the task sells 10 of them. Then go to another vendor and get another 2.
The 120 Mint and 60 Valerian are a bit more tedious, although not nearly as bad as it sounds. Below are a few herb gardens that have lots of these herbs. The rest you can quickly buy from herbalists around the map.
After that just buy the rest from herbalists and loot their gardens. When you have everything, return to the herbalist woman.
[Captain Bernard] Wait until the potion is brewed / Take the potion back to the encampment
Wait 2 days for the herbalist to brew the potions. Talk to her again, then deliver the potions to Captain Bernard. You get 325 Groschen as a reward!
Ask the nearby charcoal-burners if they have any pitch
The charcoal burners are marked on the map (in woods between Talmberg & Neuhof). Go talk to them. They will be happy to help and only ask that you send someone to get the pitch. Talk to the quartermaster about it.
[Charcoal-Burners] Tell the quartermaster to send someone for pitch
Head back to the quartermaster at Talmberg. Tell him about the pitch and he will send someone to get it. Objective complete.
Those were all the optional objectives in this quest. You should now have unlocked the Talmberger trophy/achievement for completing all optional tasks in the Siege quest.
Talmberger trophy unlocked! –Complete all Optional Objectives in Siege quest
Wait until the Trebuchet is finished / Go and watch the Trebuchet Test
Ifyou went through all those objectives in order, the Trebuchet will now be ready. If you still don’t have this objective for some reason, be sure to talk to Feyfar again. The trebuchet takes a few days to be build after you bring Konrad Keyser to Talmberg. Now is the time to test it out. Head back to the main camp (marked on the map of course) and enter the central tent to let the show begin!
Cold Steel, Hot Blood Main Quest
Going to the Trebuchet test triggers the “Cold Steel, Hot Blood” main quest. However, the Siege main quest is not yet done, it’s just on hold.You must now complete a series of other main quests to finish the “Siege” main quest.
