Equipping the Torch in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2
To equip and use the torch in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, follow these simple steps. First, open your inventory and equip a pouch. Next, select the torch and equip it. After exiting the inventory, hold down on the d-pad to have Henry bring out the torch. For PC players, press the R key to equip it.
You'll recognize that the torch is equipped when you see a red shield icon next to it in your inventory. Remember, torch flames will eventually extinguish, so always keep additional torches on hand to ensure you're never left in the dark.
Additionally, while you can equip a weapon and a torch simultaneously, this is limited to one-handed weapons. You cannot use a two-handed weapon or a shield along with the torch.
Why Do You Need a Torch?
Torches are essential in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2* for more than just lighting up dark paths. They are a necessity when moving through settlements and towns at night. Without a torch, guards may chase you down for interrogation, demanding Groschen as a bribe or taking you into custody.
Moreover, locals are more likely to engage with you if you carry a torch, enhancing your interactions and potentially opening up more dialogue options.
How to Get Torches
Acquiring torches is straightforward. You can purchase them from general traders in towns or loot them from corpses and chests. Keeping a good supply ensures you're prepared for any nocturnal adventures.
And that's all you need to know about using the torch in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*. For more tips and in-depth information on the game, including the best perks to unlock first and all romance options, be sure to check out The Escapist.
