The Lion’s Crest DLC quest is one of the first side quests you will get after finishing the tutorial mission in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2. However, you must have access to the DLC to play this quest. The quest is quite tricky, featuring a riddle and four treasure maps. If you are having trouble figuring out the Brunswick’s Armor pieces’ locations, we have you covered. So with that, here’s a full Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 The Lion’s Crest quest guide.
Note: You will need a Spade for this quest. If you don’t have one, you can get one at the Cemetery, or buy one from the trader at Troskowitz.
The Lion’s Crest Quest Part 1: Speak with Troskowitz Scribe
After you get the Wedding Crashers quest in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2, you will also get the Lion’s Crest DLC quest marked on the map. However, that will only be if you have the expansion. First, you will have to go and speak with the Scribe at Troskowitz to get a riddle for the quest, which will take you to the first piece of Bruswick’s armor. Follow the steps below to do:
- Head to Troskowitz and speak with Scribe Gaibl.
- Select the ‘Do you know where to get armor?‘ option to start the Lion’s Crest quest. The scribe will give you a riddle and a sketch of Brunswick’s Poleaxe, which you can craft at the anvil.

The Lion’s Crest Quest Part 2: Solve the Riddle
After you get the riddle, you will need to solve it to find the first piece of Brunswick’s armor and more maps for the other pieces. Here is the riddle and its meaning:
- Take leave of crone and maiden: Head north from the two towers of Trosky Castle.
- Pass through the hall of forest kings: From the shrine at the crossroads, head further north into the forest.
- Standing tall, two guards of stone: Head into the forest until you reach a rocky hill section. Here, you will see a gap between two rocks.
- A place to give one’s heart to God: Between the rocks, there will be a Cross placed on a rock. Here, you will find the treasure.
