henry the explorer

The Explorer skill has been completely revamped: discovering specific points of interest now grants temporary or permanent buffs. Explore with purpose.

henryexplorer

🌟 **Henry the Explorer** has been redesigned from the original *Explorer* skill in Kingdom Come: Deliverance II to provide rich rewards for players who stray from the usual path.

🎯 Core Concept

In the original game, the Explorer skill automatically revealed points of interest (POIs), taking away the joy of discovery. This mod not only removes the auto-reveal feature, but goes one step further:

Finding certain undiscovered locations now grants **temporary or permanent buffs**, encouraging deeper exploration and rewarding attention to detail.

🚀 Gain effect

Temporary gain

• Discovering alchemy tables, forging stations and dice tables reduce the time between when Henry needs to eat or sleep
• Discover hunting grounds and feel the adrenaline rush that will make Henry more efficient when hunting animals
• Discover various miscellaneous locations and Henry's steps will become lighter

Permanent gain

• Slightly increased the speed at which Henry gains more weight capacity at certain locations
• Slightly reduce Henry's physical consumption at specific locations
• Slightly slows the decay of herbs and food in certain locations
• Certain locations provide more luck to Henry - Why do fallen enemies have more money in their pockets?

⚙️ How it works

To capture the feeling of exploration from the start, the *Explorer* skill is activated immediately. The older version of this skill was replaced by *Explorer II*.

*Explorer II* can be obtained in the same way as the original *Explorer* skills, embodying another side of exploration - because Henry has roamed the land, he is known everywhere.

✨ New skill effects

Explorer Skills

*"The world holds hidden gifts for those who wander with open eyes and curious hearts. In ruins, glades, and forgotten paths you may find more than silence—for knowledge clings to place as surely as moss clings to stone."*

Explorer II Skills

*"One who has walked this land - you have roamed from monastery to battlefield, from village to deep forest. In every tavern and every campfire story, your name is whispered - as a saint, a sinner, or something in between. Wherever you go, your deeds will echo louder, for you are known in places where you have yet to tread."*
