How to heal in V Rising. All ways to restore health

 

Despite the fact that in V Rising you have to play as a powerful vampire, almost all living things want and can destroy him. In this guide, we will describe all the available ways to restore health in the game.

How to heal automatically

If you are not in a hostile environment (in the sun) and are not participating in combat, health is restored automatically. This method has an obvious disadvantage - you have to spend some time waiting.

To leave the battle and get rid of the "In battle" status, try to hide from the enemies. To do this, you can use the form of the wolf, which becomes available after absorbing the blood of the Alpha wolf. Also use the Blood Veil movement skill, which is available from the very beginning of the game. During the activation of the skill, the vampire dashes forward several meters and becomes invisible for two seconds.

How to heal with abilities

One of the easiest ways to improve health is the Blood Mend skill. It is available from the very beginning of the game, so it does not require you to spend a lot of time pumping or collecting resources. However, to activate this skill, you will have to spend blood. Press Ctrl to open the shortcut menu and select healing.

Notice the supply of red liquid at the bottom of the screen. Blood healing and other similar skills are spent exclusively on blood. You can replenish it in several ways - by sucking it out of any living creature or by eating a consumable, for example, a heart or a rat.

Different blood types give individual buffs, which means you will lose all the benefits if you drink the blood of someone new. The red liquid you consume from rats and various hearts changes your blood type to normal. Therefore, use such items with care.

During the recovery process, the character cannot attack and perform other active actions, but this is still one of the fastest and most effective ways, which will be especially useful in boss fights.

How to heal through transformations

As you progress through the game, develop your vampire and destroy the bosses, you will unlock more and more diverse abilities. One of them is the transformation into a bear. In animal form, you not only run faster but also automatically regenerate much more health.

How to heal with consumables

The number and variety of consumables directly depends on your progress in the game. In the beginning, you will most often use hearts and rats. However, over time, they will become only constituent elements for more complex recipes.

Almost at the very beginning of the game, you will learn how to craft Vermin Salve, an incredibly useful item that restores 2.5% of your maximum health every 1.5 seconds for 15 seconds. Press Tab to open the corresponding menu. Note that the action resets instantly if you take damage.

Over time, the Alchemy Table will become available, which will unlock even more recipes. Each significant building in the castle is opened only after defeating the corresponding boss. In this case, you need Clive the Pyro. Thanks to the table, you can think about consumables in a relaxed atmosphere and create them in reserve.

Do not neglect the protection against garlic. You can create an empty flask on the tanning bench and then fill it with water. This is one of the most important resources for crafting Minor Garlic Resistance Brew. The effect you get is 25 garlic resistance for 25 minutes. Thanks to the potion, the effectiveness of the treatment will increase many times over, and you will feel much safer.
