Healing in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

There are several methods to heal and restore health in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*. Each method has its own set of conditions and benefits, which I'll detail below:

Eating Food and Drinking Alcohol

One way to regenerate your health over time is by consuming fresh food or drinking alcohol. However, be cautious as overeating when your Nourishment is already at 100 will result in the Overfed debuff, reducing your maximum stamina. Additionally, if Henry's already full, you won't be able to eat more, leaving you with low health unless you have an alternative healing method.

Drinking alcohol can also heal you, but it comes with the risk of getting Drunk. On the positive side, you can unlock perks that provide benefits even when intoxicated.

Using a Potion

Similar to the first game, brewing and drinking a Marigold Decoction potion is another effective way to heal. You'll need to gather the necessary materials and keep some potions on hand for emergencies.

Sleeping

Resting and sleeping can also restore your health. However, finding a safe place to sleep can be tricky. Sleeping in someone else's bed without permission can be considered a crime unless you can persuade them otherwise. Look for campsites or hay beds in the open world, though they won't provide as restful a sleep as a proper bed.

For a better night's sleep, consider paying for a bed at an inn. If you're early in the game and heading to the wedding, you can visit the miller or blacksmith as part of the main quest to secure a job and a bed.

Using Bandages for Bleeding

In *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, severe slash damage can cause bleeding, leading to a Bleeding debuff that drains your health and hampers your combat abilities. To stop the bleeding, use a Bandage from your inventory to wrap up Henry and remove the debuff.

That's how you can heal up and restore health in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*. For more tips and detailed information on the game, be sure to check out The Escapist.
