Raccoon City’s native healing herbs are a series staple. Here’s how they work and how to combine them to restore your health.
When you take damage, your health decreases—thank you, Captain Obvious. You have two ways to restore it. The first is to use First Aid Sprays. These extremely scarce items instantly restore all your health. The other way to heal is by using color-coded healing herbs.
Each type of herb has its own effect, and combining them allows you to recover from almost anything. Their main advantage over First Aid Sprays is that they are, naturally, much more plentiful. They will therefore be your primary source of healing.
Herb Types and Effects
There are three types of herbs, each with a specific effect.
- Green Herb: restores health.
- Red Herb: has no effect when used on its own. When combined with a Green Herb, it fully restores your health.
- Blue Herb: cures poison—a status effect inflicted exclusively by the G-Adults in the Sewers. When combined with other herbs, it also temporarily increases your defense.
Herb Combinations and Effects
- Green + Green: restores slightly more health than a single Green Herb.
- Green + Red: fully restores your health.
- Green + Blue: restores a small amount of health and cures poison.
- Green + Green + Blue: restores a little more health and cures poison.
- Green + Red + Blue: fully restores your health, cures poison, and temporarily increases your defense.
