There are different ways to restore health and status to your character and your party members. How you choose to heal your team will depend on what other necessities you have at the moment. This guide will break down the best ways to heal yourself and your party members.

Rest At Camp

The main way to restore life to your team is by utilizing your camp.You are able to take a Long Rest or a Short Rest. Both willrestore your team’s health and remove any negative effects(granted they aren’t permanent debuffs).

Both types of Rest can be initiated anywhere as long as you are not in combat or in a dangerous area (such as the Hag’s Lair or the Githyanki Creche). There is a campfire icon on the bottom right of your HUD. Clicking this icon will showcase a crescent moon for a Long Rest and a closed eye for a Short Rest.

A Long Rest willalso restore Spell SlotsandActions. Some Actions and specifically a Warlock’s spell slots, however, only require a Short Rest.

A Short Rest will only repair some health based on your hit dice and levels, not all of your health, and can be done instantly at the click of a button. A Long Rest willfully restore your party’s health, but will require you to use Camp Supplies and leave your current location to retire to camp.

Potion Of Healing

Healing potions are the obvious way to heal in any video game, but they can be hard to find or hard to afford, especially at the beginning of the game when you scarcely have Gold to your name.

There are three grades of healing potions, a regular Potion of Healing, a Potion of Greater Healing, and a Potion of Superior Healing. You should be able to purchase potions from most merchants.

If you or your party members are support-based spellcasters, you should have ahealing spellavailable to Prepare. Using these spells will use up Spell Slots that will need to be replenished by resting.

Reviving Party Members

If worst comes to worst, you or a party member may just flat-out die. If theyfail all their Saving Throws, it’s death. Not forever, though. You can revive teammates. Your team starts off with a few Scrolls of Revivify. This can be used to revive party members.

Alternatively, theRevivifyspell can be learned by various spellcasters. It’s a level three spell, so you’ll have to be at least level five to prepare it, though!
