Health

Health (also known as health points, hit points, or HP) is one of three Vitals in Outward, represented by the red circular bar in the bottom left corner of screen.

Description
Starting with a base maximum of 100, Health represents the amount of damage one can take before receiving a defeat scenario. Characters can regain health in number of ways, including consuming certain food, potions, and resting. Health does not regenerate over time naturally. Maximum health can be decreased and increased permanently on any characters through the Leyline found in Conflux Chambers and a variety of Skills.

Healing
Health does not regenerate on its own. Health can be restored from:

Direct Heal
 * Life Potion, Great Life Potion, Gep's Drink and Ragoût du Marais (as well as Miasmapod and Boiled Miasmapod)
 * Runic Heal (Restores additional health over time if the player has Runic Prefix)
 * Resting
 * Bloodlust
 * Vampiric weapons
 * Infuse Blood

Health over time

The different effects can be stacked.
 * Bandages
 * Health Recovery. Health Recovery can be obtained from many sources, mainly Food.
 * Wolf Medic Set
 * Healing Water
 * Calygrey Bone Cage

Burnt Health
Through receiving damage, passing out and other means, a portion of maximum Health can become "Burnt", preventing Health from fully regenerating through Healing.

Burnt Health is indicated by the dark-red portion of the health bar. It can be recovered with resting, and from:

Food Potions
 * Mineral Tea
 * Dry Mushroom Bar
 * Pungent Paste
 * Great Life Potion
 * Horror’s Potion

Equipment
 * Vampiric weapons
