Buffs and Debuffs Overview in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

As I, Henry, traverse through this virtual world, different Buffs and Debuffs come into play under varying situations. These effects show up at the screen’s bottom next to my Health and Stamina gauges. The Buffs are the beneficial outcomes that I receive when I use specific potions or trigger certain abilities. For instance, if I desire a boost in my Stamina, I can opt for Buck’s Blood potion. This magical elixir significantly amplifies my Stamina, granting me an edge during battles.

Debuffs can occur under various situations, such as receiving numerous blows on particular body areas or acquiring a bleeding state, among others. Not getting enough rest or remaining hungry for an extended period may also cause certain debuffs, which will make Henry less agile and powerful. Similar to Buffs, these Debuffs are short-term but may persist until addressed. Each Debuff necessitates a distinct solution, so it is advisable to familiarize yourself with them. Additionally, players should check the “Buffs” section in the player interface to view their active debuffs and buffs at any given moment.
