Want to know how to craft the useful Cockerel Potion in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2? Look no further! Here’s the recipe and the crafting method.
If players are having trouble finding this secondary quest, here is all the information they need to know about it, from how to start it, to how to defeat all the annoying Cuman mercenaries, and where to find the stolen chest to complete this quest in a breeze.
How To Start Skeleton In The Closet In KCD2
To start Skeleton in The Closet, players should have completed Bellatores, a quest granted by Jan Posy of Zimburg in Belany. After completing this side quest and rescuing Miroslav, Jan’s brother, they need to wait a few days before Skeletons in the Closte become available. Travel to the Ruins of Zimburg and look for Jan to start the quest.
Before completing Skeleton In The Closet, Henry already knew how bold the Zimburg brothers were, especially Posy, the eldest. This time, though, Tugbone suggests a more reasonable approach, much to the discomfort of Jan Posy, who states that is the way of murderers and thieves, not of honorable knights.
How To Complete Skeleton In The Closet In Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
It is recommended to take a stealthy approach to beat this enormous camp filled with dangerous mercenaries. Use poison, long-range arrows, and all the ‘dirty tactics’ you can to ensure the Cuman camp population drops before engaging in melee. That way, players can prevent any of the brothers from dying during the assault, which will result in a failed quest.
Still, if players want to walk the honorable path, they can engage in direct combat with the mercenaries (around 9 in total) but they should prevent them from swarming the brothers at any cost. The Zimburg brothers will try to do their best to help Henry, but if they get surrounded, they will die in no time.
Now, after the battle is over, players will need to talk to Jan Posy who will tell them to search the camp for the missing chest. Players need to look for the Cuman commander named Sharkan and loot his corpse for the chest keys. Then, go to the main tent and look for the coffer near the right side, open it, and take the Reliquary Quest Item from within.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 – The Fifth Commandment Guide
To complete The Fifth Commandment Side Quest In Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, players will have to do lots of sleuthing. Here’s a full guide for them.
Go back to Zimburg and ask about the Reliquary. He will explain that they have been deprived of their inheritance, and to prove that they are following the tradition and teaching their mother a lesson, they are taking the remains of their dead father to Sedletz Monastery.
Though this Secondary Quest is quite straightforward, as with the Bellatores Secondary Quest, it will have a hidden reward. Players can go back to Zimburg Ruins and talk to Jan Posy to learn several new Sword Combos, like the False Edge (Tier IV) that bypasses the opponents’ defense. Also, once players complete Skeleton in the Closet, Jan Posy will offer to train them in the Master Grade Polearms, Swordsmanship, and Heavy Weapon skills.
This is one of the only Master Grade trainers that players will come across during the adventure, so make sure to save enough Groschen to pay for the training, and go for it. And remember to drink the Fox Potion beforehand, to improve the experience amount earned with the training.
