Equipping the Torch in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
To equip your torch, access your inventory. Ensure you have a pouch equipped; then, select the torch and equip it. Exiting the inventory, press and hold the down directional button (d-pad) to activate the torch (consoles). PC players should press the 'R' key.
A red shield icon next to the torch in your inventory confirms it's equipped. Remember, torch flames extinguish over time, so carry spares. Note that dual-wielding a torch is only possible with one-handed weapons. Two-handed weapons and shields are incompatible with torch use.
Why Use a Torch?
Beyond enhanced visibility in darkness, carrying a torch at night within settlements is mandatory. Failure to do so will attract the attention of guards, leading to interrogation and potential fines or imprisonment. Furthermore, locals might be less cooperative in the dark if you lack a torch.
Obtaining Torches
Torches are readily available from general merchants in towns or can be looted from fallen enemies and chests.
