Lucerne Hammer Found. Also Dark Combat Jacket

Gameplay
#1

There are a lot of new random battles in Skalitz now. I saw Cumans vs. Bandits and Bandits vs. Guards. All in top tier gear.

One guard had a sword, and I failed to choke him out. He dropped the sword and immediately pulls out the hammer. The guard despawns once the bandits die. He leaves the hammer.

One bandit also had a dark combat jacket. Black outer jacket with dark red trim.

So it is possible to get the hammer legit, and it is possible for NPCs to store polearms in their inventory.

Edit: I have also seen a bandit that was tied up with the hammer on the floor next to him, and a random encounter reasonably high tier bandit in plate and klappvisor with the hammer too. He was actually using the hammer.

Yup, I too get the random battles popping up. Very nice touch! A couple of guards saved my butt when I was getting pummeled by three full plate mail bandits, two of which caught me off guard as I was finishing off the first guy. Then brought down my battle axe right through the middle of a bandits head. Just felt right!

I’ll have to keep my eyes open for the Lucerne Hammer though. Thanks for the tip!

Good day!

They appeared before. I guess they’re appearing in new places?

More like more often. I noticed today that ambushes have some high tier bandits as well wearing the brigandine armor sets Just like the wayfairing knight

I was exploring the fringes of the map today, areas towards the edges I’ve not been yet, so not sure if in the same spots yet. Although, on my way north out of Talmberg, I ran into a group of bandits vs guards vs Cumans in the typical location.

The random encounters just need to be in more random locations, then it will be spot on, imo.

what’s it called? there’s the raven’s beak, the warhammer, and the something else, they all resemble the lucern hammer. is this one two handed?

#7

@DutchC0mmand0 @DrDetroit sounds like a nice change. wish some of the spawned groups were too much for you to take on alone. gotta hit and run or attack with guards

#8

Yes, it’s a 2H polearm. It is in some of the cutscenes, but you almost never saw it before this. Even this time, the guard didn’t use it, even though he had it, until I choked him and made him drop his sword.

It doesn’t look “like” a Lucerne hammer, that’s what it’s called. It’s in the game files. It’s in the wiki.

i used spearmans delight for 1 day before the 1.4 patch came out i think they were in the game then . im pretty sure i was able to buy them from the black smiths. theres also another polearm called a hunting spear that i never seen b4 i used the mod …i think i have every polearm in the game ,i still use the mod in 1.41 https://www.nexusmods.com/kingdomcomedeliverance/mods/404?tab=description

Yes, we could mod/cheat them in on PC. Someone also mentioned once that they found one on a corpse, but couldn’t loot it.

What I am saying is that this is the first time NPCs have used one, and it should also work on console.

Another interesting thing is that the NPC pulled the polearm out of his inventory.

I have looted the Bohemian Earspoon (lugged spear) off a bandit corpse. It can be stored in your inventory but not equipped. You have to drop it and pick it up to use it. I just looted the Lucerne hammer after killing a bandit who was wielding it. Seems like it was added as a usable item with 1.4.3 patch. Loving the buffed end game difficulty and that bandits carry unique colors of high end armor now. Just wish polearms were a real part of the game and not a gimmick

#12

I can confirm they now drop special gear from bandits. I killed a bandit man-at-arms in full plate armor with a freaking glaive who dropped a green-dyed brigandine coat.

look out for that Lucerne hammer! A few good hits from that and your hurt’n.
Stay close in when fighting a bandit with poles arms! Don’t give him any space!
