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

Consuming food and drink replenishes health gradually. However, being at full nourishment (100%) and consuming more food results in the "Overfed" debuff, reducing maximum stamina. Similarly, while alcohol can heal, it also induces the "Drunk" debuff. Fortunately, perks can mitigate the negative effects of intoxication.

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.

Sleep

Resting and sleeping restores health. The quality of sleep varies depending on the sleeping surface. A bed in an inn provides superior restoration compared to a campsite or hay bed. Early in the game, consider accepting jobs from the miller or blacksmith to gain access to a bed.

Bandages for Bleeding

Severe slash wounds inflict the "Bleeding" debuff, causing continuous health loss and hindering combat. Applying a bandage from your inventory immediately stops the bleeding and removes the debuff.
