[SOLVED] reset display settings from terminal pre-login KDE, SDDM

So when trying to set up multiple monitors, I managed to apply display settings via the display setting GUI in Plasma that cannot be displayed on any of my monitors. Logging into KDE-Arch displays a blank screen or not at all on all of them.
I can access a terminal with Ctrl+Alt+F2.

I have tried removing plasma and kde-applications with

sudo pacman -Rs plasma kde-applications

rebooting, and reinstalling them, but the problem persists.

and running

xrandx

errors "Can't open display"

How can I change my display settings via the terminal before login?

Look at ~/.local/share/kscreen - in doubt remove the files there.
