Tracking down five poacher groups during the challenging "Bird of Prey" quest in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 requires a keen eye and some detective work, as the game doesn't pinpoint their exact locations. This guide provides detailed locations and strategies for finding each poacher.

Where to Find Poachers in "Bird of Prey"

Poacher #1

The first poacher is relatively easy to find. After initiating the quest, head north of the pond, enter the forest, and navigate through the tall shrubs. Their camp is nearby. While you can engage them, a peaceful resolution is recommended to avoid reputation penalties. This poacher is easily persuaded to surrender; you can then release them or send them to the bailiff. Remember to collect a piece of their equipment as proof.

Poacher #2

Poacher #2 is arguably the most difficult to locate. Speaking to quest-related NPCs might narrow your search, but the image above shows a direct route. This poacher is more resistant to persuasion; peaceful resolution may require high persuasion skills.

Poacher #3

Located in Slatego Forest (information from Gravedigger Ignatius near Apollonia helps), this search involves two locations. The first camp is empty, but searchable. Head west to the second location, where you’ll find wolves guarding a corpse—the poacher. Collect their equipment as proof.

Poacher #4

This encounter involves three poachers deep in the woods. Instead of direct confrontation, examine three key pieces of evidence: a deer corpse, a deer skin, and a hanging deer carcass. This provides the necessary proof to report back to the gamekeeper.

Poacher #5

The final poacher, Hans, is located near rocks on the western side of the marked area. Since apprehending an old friend is impossible, collect his poaching kit as evidence.

This concludes the guide on locating all poachers for the "Bird of Prey" quest in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. Remember, peaceful resolutions are preferred to maintain your reputation.
