Quick Links
Kingdom Come: Deliverance2 features one of the most sprawling, diverse open worlds in recent memory with plenty of things to keep you busy outside the main quest line. From playing dice, to hunting down treasure, to simply finding literally anything else to do besides progress onward, the options are bountiful.
10 Mini Games We Wish Were Full Games
Sonic Adventure’s Chao Garden or Yakuza 0’s Cabaret Club are more than addicting enough to be full games on their own.
Another example of something to get yourself side-tracked with is fist-fighting. There are small arenas scattered around the map to test your boxing skills, but the Melee At The Mill task that’s available very early in the game is the best place to start.
Crack those knuckles, and get ready to punch some faces.
Getting Started: Accepting Quest From Hensel
At the entrance to the Lower Semine Mill, look for the shirtless Hired Hand Hensel in a small, fenced-in arena located in the north-west portion of the village.
Hensel’s exact location will be marked on your map with a “quest tipster” icon featuring a blue exclamation point.
If you’re into fight clubs, Hensel had good news for you. The Lower Semine Mill has a league of three competitors, and all you need to join is to seek permission from Miller Kreyzl, the man in charge.
If you’ve already been to this location before as part of the “Wedding Crashers” main quest, you should have a fast-travel marker on your map, so be sure to utilize it.
Getting Kreyzl’s Blessing
Your next map marker is for Miller Kreyzl, who is okay with you joining the league of fist-fighters in town. He simply does not think you’ll be able to measure up to his champion fighter, Vira.
Still, with his blessing, you’re ready to take on Hensel.
Fight 1: Hensel
Locate Hensel again, and tell him you’re ready for your first challenge. You can choose to wager ten Groschen on this bout, and you should. Hensel shouldn’t be too much trouble for the strapping Henry.
If you’ve done any previous fist-fighting in the game, Hensel isn’t much of a threat. He can’t take very many punches at all, and you may knock him out with as few as three to five clean strikes to the head.
For total bare-hand combat newbies, your skills from any fighting with weaponry in KCD2 to this point will serve you well here, too. Watch for perfect blocks, counter appropriately, and save stamina when needed.
Hensel doesn’t go for many grabs and really struggles to get any hits on you at all.
After clobbering Hensel, you’ll earn a bonus ten Groschen if you decided to place a wager. Speak to him, and he’ll point you towards Malik, fighter number two.
Fight 2: Malik
Like Hensel, Malik simply needs to be approached, asked to fight, and wagered against. From here, you’re whisked away to the arena for fight two.
Though only fight two out of three in this lineup of foes, don’t be surprised if Malik ends up being your biggest challenge. This guy can take a punch, and you’ll need a good seven or eight strong strikes to the head to take him down.
Additionally, watch for Malik to start throwing in kicks to throw you off and break your stance. Dodge, counter, strike, repeat, and you still should be able to knock him down eventually.
Claim your wager prize, and he’ll usher you along to the village champion, Vira.
Malik is also the only one of the three fighters that can teach you new skills. You can train in unarmed combat with him before you fight Vira for additional practice. He also teaches skills in Thievery, Stealth, and Drinking. Pretty cool dude.
Fight 3: Vira
Finally, track down your final opponent, Vira.
Speak to him, challenge him, wager, and get ready.
Vira is more aggressive than the other two, but this fight is entirely winnable. Watch out for him charging in for grab attacks, as he likes to go for grappling moves often.
He has lower HP than Malik, however, so if you may fend off his attacks and sneak six or seven clean shots in, he’ll take a tumble as well.
Truth be told, if you’ve already had some other fist-fighting experience in the game, such as fighting and defeating Tibor in the Miri Fajta side quest, even Vira should be a cakewalk in comparison.
Punish his aggression and unload as many strikes as your stamina bar allows.
With your final wager won, report back in with Kreyzl.
Becoming Kreyzl’s Champion
Miller Kreyzl will be very impressed with your victories and explain to you that Vira was his fighter to send to larger competitions all the way in Zhelejov to win the village some extra cash.
With you beating him so easily, Kreyzl wonders if perhaps you’d like to take Vira’s place is the next big contest. But that’s a side quest for a later date.
More Melee At The Mill
After wrapping up Melee At The Mill, you can seek out Hensel by the fighting arena for even more action if you’d like. Speaking with him launches a follow-up task, More Melee At The Mill.
Ask Hensel for some more action, and he’ll oblige. you’re able to wager more coin, too.
Hensel Rematch
This time around, Hensel is a bit more threatening. He’ll take an extra punch to knock down, and he’s also channeled some extra aggression into his combat since last time too.
The main thing here is that he will now rush you and go for grabs and grapples as well, so keep an eye out for those.
Still, Hensel is relatively weak, and you’re able to crush him once again.
Thank him for the fight and move along.
Malik Rematch
Malik is still wandering around the mill hard at work, but he can also be sought out for a rematch.
Once again, his ability to take a punch is remarkable, and you’ll have to clock him a good ten to twelve times in this fight to finally defeat him.
This is more of an endurance test than last time, so watch that stamina bar.
Speak with him to claim your wager.
Vira Rematch
Finally, former-champion Vira is also up for another bout. His fight works almost the exact same as last time, with the caveat that he might be able to take an extra punch or two.
The same principles apply, however. Vira’s aggression will leave him open to massive counters in which you can quickly combo him into oblivion.
Once defeated, there are no more fights to be had in Lower Semine Mill, but at least you made some memories with the boys along the way.
