Healing Methods in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
Several methods exist to replenish health:
- Consuming food or alcohol
- Using Marigold Decoction potions
- Resting or sleeping
- Applying bandages to bleeding wounds
While seemingly straightforward, these methods have nuances:
Food and Alcohol Consumption
Eating food or drinking alcohol gradually restores health. However, consuming food when your Nourishment is already full results in the "Overfed" debuff, reducing maximum stamina. Similarly, if Henry is already satiated, he cannot eat, leaving you with limited health restoration options. Alcohol provides healing but carries the risk of intoxication. Fortunately, perks can mitigate the negative effects of drunkenness.
Potion Use
Brewing and consuming Marigold Decoction potions offers a direct health boost. Remember to gather the necessary ingredients and keep a supply on hand.
Resting and Sleeping
Resting and sleeping restore health. However, sleeping in unauthorized locations might be considered a crime. Campsites and hay beds offer less restorative sleep than a proper bed at an inn. Consider paying for lodging at an inn, or, early in the game, utilize the opportunities provided by main quests (like working for the miller or blacksmith) to secure a bed.
Treating Bleeding Wounds
Significant slash damage can inflict the "Bleeding" debuff, rapidly draining health and impairing combat effectiveness. Immediately apply bandages from your inventory to stop the bleeding and remove the debuff.
