Knowing how to heal in Enshrouded is, as you would expect, pretty important. Unfortunately, as the game doesn’t explain how to restore HP, you may find yourself in a dangerous situation. But, once you figure out how to heal, your journey through the shroud will become a lot easier.
Here’s how to heal in Enshrouded, plus the best healing methods for new players.
How do you heal in Enshrouded?
There’s no passive healing in Enshrouded, which means you don’t automatically regenerate health outside of combat. To restore HP, you’ll need to consume healing foods and potions or use magic. Here’s an overview of the various different ways to heal in Enshrouded:
Beware that food in Enshrouded works with three food slots and timers: you may consume up to three different foods, but then you’ll have to wait until their effect timers run out before you can consume another one. So, if all three food slots are currently filled, you can’t use a healing food to restore HP - bandages and potions are therefore more reliable!
At the start of the game, there are a few recipes you can use to get some healing healing options so here are the best options:
If you’d rather restore health using a healing spell, the first thing you’ll need is a staff. Luckily, you can already craft a basic staff at the start of the game; open your manual crafting menu and scroll down to ‘magical weapons’, where you’ll find it next to the wand. Here’s the crafting recipe for the staff:
Now that you’ve got the staff, it’s time to craft some healing spells.
Unlike the wand, the staff requires spell charges. It basically works like ammunition; casting a spell with the staff will consume a spell stack in your inventory, unless it’s an ‘Eternal’ spell. To get more spell charges, you either need to loot them from chests or craft them at the Alchemist’s station. Here’s an overview of healing spells in Enshrouded:
If you plan on getting the mortar as well to enhance your alchemy then I can help you find the 10Enshrouded clayyou’ll need for that as well.
And that’s how to heal in Enshrouded. If you’d like to become an even better healer, consider using your skill points in the ‘healer’ class’s skill tree. Good luck!
