Healing Methods in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Several methods exist for replenishing health:

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

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 an "Overfed" debuff, reducing maximum stamina. Similarly, if Henry is already satiated, he cannot consume further food, leaving you with limited healing options. Alcohol offers a healing benefit but carries the risk of intoxication. Fortunately, perks can mitigate the negative effects of drunkenness.

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.

Rest and Sleep

Resting and sleeping restores health. However, sleeping in unauthorized locations might lead to criminal charges unless you can persuade the owner otherwise. While campsites and hay beds offer some rest, a proper bed in an inn provides superior health regeneration. Early in the game, consider securing work with the miller or blacksmith to gain access to a bed.

Treating Bleeding

Significant slash damage can inflict a Bleeding debuff, rapidly depleting health and hindering combat effectiveness. Apply a Bandage from your inventory to stop the bleeding and remove the debuff.
