In *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, mastering the dice game isn't just about luck; it's about strategic play, and badges play a crucial role in giving you the edge. Here's a curated list of the top 10 badges you should aim to acquire to tilt the odds in your favor.
Best Badges in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, Ranked
10. Badge of Defense
For those who encounter opponents relying on powerful badges, the Badge of Defense is your countermeasure. This badge neutralizes the effects of your opponent's badges, rendering their perks ineffective. Available in Tin, Silver, and Gold, each version cancels out badges of corresponding quality. It's particularly useful against players using Warlord or Doppelganger badges. You can purchase it from Karl von Unterbruck at Under the Bridge in Trosky or from Minstrel Roxanne at random roadside camps.
9. Badge of Fortune
When the dice aren't rolling in your favor, the Badge of Fortune can turn things around. It allows you to reroll selected dice once per game, helping you avoid a bust. The Tin version lets you reroll one die, Silver two, and Gold three. You can obtain this badge by pickpocketing or looting Vauquelin Brabant in Raborsch.
8. Badge of Transmutation
The Badge of Transmutation offers the ability to change a die after rolling. The Gold version transforms any die into a 1, Silver into a 5, and Tin into a 3. Since 1 and 5 can score independently, this badge is invaluable for maintaining your scoring streak. It's available for purchase from Henslin Schaber at roadside camps.
7. Badge of Might
To boost your chances of landing high-scoring combinations, the Badge of Might adds an extra die to your roll. The Gold version can be used three times per game, while Silver and Tin have more limited uses. Combine this with special dice for maximum effect. You can find it in a hard lockpicking chest in Bathhouse Owner Adam's office in Kuttenberg.
6. Warlord’s Badge
The Warlord’s Badge can be a game-changer by increasing your points for a single turn. The Tin version adds 25%, Silver 50%, and Gold doubles your points. You can buy it from Innkeeper Weighman in Kuttenberg or from tavern staff.

If you frequently use special dice that roll 1s, the Emperor’s Badge is essential. It triples the points for the 1+1+1 formation, turning a 1,000-point throw into 3,000. It can be used repeatedly, making it a powerful tool for rapid point accumulation. Available from Minstrel Roxanne at roadside camps.
2. Badge of Resurrection
