Healing Methods in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Several methods exist for health restoration:

  • Consuming food or alcohol
  • Using Marigold Decoction potions
  • Sleeping
  • Applying bandages to bleeding wounds

While seemingly straightforward, these methods have nuances:

Food and Alcohol Consumption

Eating replenishes HP over time, but overeating (when Nourishment is at 100%) results in an Overfed debuff, reducing maximum stamina. Furthermore, a full stomach prevents further food consumption. Alcohol offers a healing benefit, but can induce the Drunk debuff. However, perks can mitigate the negative effects of being drunk.

Potion Use

Brewing and consuming Marigold Decoction potions provides a direct health boost. Remember to gather ingredients and prepare potions proactively.

Rest and Sleep

Sleeping restores health. However, unauthorized sleeping can lead to criminal charges. Campsites and hay beds offer lower-quality rest compared to beds in inns. Prioritize securing a bed at an inn or through quests (e.g., the miller or blacksmith early in the game).

Treating Bleeding Wounds

Significant slash damage can inflict the Bleeding debuff, draining HP and hindering combat effectiveness. Use bandages from your inventory to stop bleeding and remove the debuff.
