In *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, navigating the harsh medieval world means dealing with threats like food poisoning, which can turn your gaming experience into a nightmare. Here's your guide to curing and avoiding this common ailment.
Curing Food Poisoning in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*
To cure food poisoning in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, your character, Henry, must take a digestive potion. It's the only effective remedy; attempting to wait it out will lead to Henry's demise.
You have two options to obtain a digestive potion: purchase it from an apothecary or brew it yourself. Conveniently, digestive potions are available at most apothecaries in the game. You can find them at NPCs in Troskowitz, Trosky Castle, and the Nomads’ Camp, typically selling for a few groschen.
For a more sustainable solution, consider buying the recipe and brewing the potion yourself. This approach ensures you have a steady supply of digestive potions for any future mishaps. To brew the potion, you'll need two thistles, two nettles, water, and one piece of charcoal. Follow these steps:
- Add both thistles to a cauldron of water and boil for two turns.
- Grind the nettles with a pestle and mortar, then add them to the cauldron and boil for one turn.
- Grind the charcoal and add it to the cauldron.
- Pour the completed potion into a vial.
The best place to brew your potion undisturbed is at Bozhena’s hut, as using alchemy stations at other apothecaries may upset the shopkeepers.
What Causes Food Poisoning in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*?
Understanding what leads to food poisoning is crucial for prevention. The primary cause is consuming food that's past its freshness. Always check the Freshness meter in your inventory; a red number indicates a risk of food poisoning, while a white number means the food is safe to eat.
To minimize the risk, opt for fresh food, and consider acquiring perks that slow down spoilage. Additionally, cooking or drying your food can extend its freshness, helping you avoid this unpleasant condition.
