Equipping the Torch in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
To use your torch, access your inventory, equip a pouch, then select and equip the torch. Exiting the inventory, hold down the directional pad (d-pad) to activate it (R key on PC). A red shield icon next to the torch in your inventory confirms it's equipped. Remember, torches have a limited burn time, so carry spares.
Note: Torch use is compatible with one-handed weapons only. Two-handed weapons or shields cannot be used simultaneously with a torch.
Why Use a Torch?
Beyond improved visibility in darkness, torches are mandatory in settlements and towns after nightfall. Being caught without one will result in a guard interrogation, potentially leading to a fine or arrest. Furthermore, locals may be less cooperative in the dark if you're unlit.
Obtaining Torches
Torches are readily available from general merchants in towns or can be looted from fallen enemies and chests.
