Health is the value that represents how much damage a knight can withstand before being defeated.
Health Displays
While in the Clockworks, your knight's current and maximum health can be monitored at the upper left and bottom of the user interface.
- Party Health: The health bars of all the party members are shown in the upper left and are organized in rows of 10, showing a maximum of the first 20 bars of health. Current health is shown in the knight's personal color and unfilled health bars are outlined in white.
- Personal Health: The health bars shown at the bottom will stretch and shrink according to your maximum and current health. Your current health is shown in red and unfilled health bars are outlined in white.
While in Haven, your knight's health is not shown, and is theoretically always full.
Losing and Gaining Health Bars
Taking damage from monsters and hazards will result in a loss of health; shown in your health meter as bars turning purple, then empty with a white outline. The knight on the screen will also blink a few times, during which you will not take additional damage.
If your knight's health reaches zero, the knight will be defeated and fall to the floor with bits of heat spilling out of the knight and landing nearby. Reviving yourself will always cost energy and will return you to full health, but other players may revive you by sharing half of their health. It is possible to have/lose health in fractions less than a half, but only half and full bars of health will be shown.
Regaining lost health is achievable by walking over hearts, or by using health capsule pickups. Your health is also restored when reaching Moorcroft Manor or Emberlight.
Increasing Maximum Health
You are able to raise your maximum health in several ways.
- 2 star and higher armor and helmets may come with health bonuses. The Scarlet Shield comes with a +2 health bonus, and a few trinkets also carry health bonuses. Equipment health bonuses may be reduced depending on what tier you are on and what star level the equipment is.
- While in the Clockworks, you will be able to find vitapodss which increase your knight's maximum health by the amount indicated. Only one may be equipped at a time, and they are lost upon returning to Haven.
