Healing Methods in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Several methods exist for health restoration:

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

Let's explore each method in detail.

Food and Drink

Eating food or drinking alcohol gradually replenishes health. However, be aware that consuming food when your nourishment is already full (100%) results in the "Overfed" debuff, reducing maximum stamina. Similarly, if Henry is already full, he can't consume any more food, leaving you with limited healing options. While alcohol offers healing, it also carries the risk of intoxication. Fortunately, perks can mitigate the negative effects of being drunk.

Potions

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

Sleeping

Resting and sleeping restore health. However, sleeping in unauthorized locations may lead to legal trouble. Campsites and hay beds offer less restorative sleep than a proper bed in an inn. Prioritize using a bed at an inn, especially at night. Early in the game, consider accepting work from the miller or blacksmith to gain access to a bed.

Treating Bleeding

Severe slash wounds can inflict the "Bleeding" debuff, draining health and hindering combat effectiveness. Apply a bandage from your inventory to stop the bleeding and remove this detrimental effect.
