Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 - How To See In The Dark

In Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, navigating the darkness can be challenging. Many nighttime quests require extensive travel, often far from safe sleeping spots. While waiting or using the "Wait" command works, Nighthawk potions and torches offer more efficient solutions.

Torches improve immediate visibility but are breakable and offer limited range. Nighthawk potions provide superior nighttime vision.

Nighthawk Potions: Night Vision in Medieval Times

For optimal nighttime vision, Nighthawk potions are unparalleled—the game's equivalent of night vision goggles. Their effect is dramatic, transforming the night sky into a daytime-like brightness. The potion's illumination is so effective, it's easy to forget you're traveling at night.

This makes long-distance nighttime travel significantly easier, especially considering the dangers of bandits, wolves, and other hostile encounters.

However, remember that NPCs may still perceive you as suspicious if approached at night without a torch, even while under the potion's effect. Always carry a torch when interacting with guards or NPCs to avoid unwanted attention.

Avoid using Nighthawk potions during the day or near dawn. The increased sunlight can cause a blinding effect. Waiting or sleeping is recommended to time potion usage effectively.

Four Nighthawk potion variations exist, depending on herb quality: Henry's Nighthawk, Weak Nighthawk, Nighthawk, and Strong Nighthawk. Their effects differ:

Potion	Effect
Henry's Nighthawk	Night vision for 25 minutes; no energy drain.
Weak Nighthawk	Night vision for 10 minutes.
Nighthawk	Night vision for 15 minutes; 25% slower energy drain.
Strong Nighthawk	Night vision for 20 minutes; 50% slower energy drain.

Obtaining Nighthawk Potions

Three ways exist to acquire Nighthawk potions: brewing, buying, or finding them in the game world (chests, abandoned buildings).

A free potion is available early in the game within the Cottage Ruins near the initial ambush. It's located on a counter inside.

Purchasing from Alchemists is easy but expensive. Not all Alchemists stock all potions or recipes.

Brewing is efficient, requiring the recipe (available from Aranka in the Nomad Camp or purchased from Alchemists).

Nighthawk Potion Recipe

The recipe must be learned or bought. Required ingredients: Chamomile, Belladonna, and Eyebright.

Brewing steps:

1. Add water to the cauldron.
2. Grind two handfuls of Eyebright, add to the cauldron.
3. Add one Belladonna.
4. Boil for three turns (use the Sandglass).
5. Grind one handful of Chamomile, add to the cauldron.
6. Pour into a phial.

Using fresh herbs maximizes potion yield.

Torches: A Less Effective Alternative

Torches provide short-range illumination but are less effective than Nighthawk potions. They are easily

by enemies and break. Remember to use them around NPCs at night to avoid suspicion.
