Healing Methods in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Several methods exist for health restoration:

  • Consuming food or alcohol.
  • Using a Marigold Decoction potion.
  • Sleeping.

While seemingly straightforward, these methods have nuances.

Food and Alcohol Consumption

Eating food replenishes HP over time. However, consuming food when your Nourishment is already full results in an "Overfed" debuff, reducing maximum stamina. Furthermore, attempting to eat while already full is impossible. Alcohol offers a similar healing effect but risks intoxication. While intoxication has drawbacks, certain perks mitigate its negative impacts.

Potion Use

Brewing and drinking a Marigold Decoction potion provides a direct health boost. Remember to gather the necessary ingredients and keep a supply on hand.

Resting and Sleeping

Sleeping restores health. However, sleeping in unauthorized locations may lead to accusations of trespassing. While open-world campsites and hay beds offer rest, the quality of sleep (and thus health restoration) is inferior to a proper bed in an inn. Prioritize paying for a bed, especially at night. Early-game quests may provide access to beds at a miller's or blacksmith's.

Treating Bleeding Wounds

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