Using a torch in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is essential for navigating dark areas and avoiding suspicion from guards and villagers at night. Here's how to equip and use it:

How to Obtain a Torch

• Purchase: Torches can be bought from general merchants, taverns, or traders in most settlements.
• Loot: They are commonly found on bandits, guards, or by looting chests.
• Starting Item: You may receive a torch early in the game from an NPC.

How to Equip the Torch

1. Open your inventory and locate the torch under the "Other Weapons" section.
2. Equip it by:
   • Selecting it and pressing the appropriate button (e.g., "A" on Xbox, "X" on PlayStation, or "E" on PC).
   • Dragging it to the slot below Henry's portrait.

How to Use the Torch

• On Console: Hold down the D-pad down button to light or extinguish the torch.
• On PC: Press and hold "R" to toggle the torch on or off.

Tips for Using a Torch

• Guards will demand you carry a lit torch in settlements at night. Failure to comply may result in fines or aggression.
• While lit, a torch reduces stealth, so extinguish it if sneaking is required.
• Torches do not degrade, so you only need one.

Mastering the use of a torch ensures safety and compliance during nighttime exploration in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2.
