Healing Methods in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Several methods exist to replenish health: consuming food or alcohol, using potions, sleeping, and applying bandages to bleeding wounds. However, the effectiveness of each method depends on various factors.

Food and Alcohol Consumption

Eating food or drinking alcohol gradually restores HP. However, consuming food when your Nourishment is already full (100%) results in the "Overfed" debuff, reducing maximum stamina. Similarly, consuming food when already full prevents further consumption, leaving you with limited health restoration options. While alcohol offers healing, it also carries the "Drunk" debuff, though this can be mitigated with specific perks.

Potion Use

Brewing and drinking a Marigold Decoction potion provides a direct health boost. Remember to gather the necessary ingredients and prepare potions beforehand.

Sleeping

Resting and sleeping restore health. However, sleeping in unauthorized locations might lead to criminal charges unless resolved through dialogue. While open-world campsites and hay beds offer some rest, inns provide superior sleep quality. Early in the game, consider accepting jobs from the miller or blacksmith to secure a bed.

Bandages for Bleeding

Significant slash damage can inflict the "Bleeding" debuff, rapidly draining HP and impairing combat abilities. Immediately apply bandages from your inventory to stop the bleeding and negate the debuff.
