Controls & Menu

Press B to open Bag (opens in a new tab), then R → Brew Medicine to craft supplies. Equip your medicine under Develop → Quick Use (opens in a new tab) → Medicine. Press X during play to use it.

Note: These instructions use the game’s default controls. To change your button settings, go to Settings → Keyboard & Mouse → Button Settings.

Craft Your Starter Medicine

Start with Hemostatic Powder, your basic healing medicine. Each bottle needs one Herb and one Meat Scrap, gathered from plants and hunted animals.

Open Bag (opens in a new tab), select Craft at the bottom, then Brew Medicine → Hemostatic Powder. Set the quantity, check the ingredients and Stamina cost, then select Craft Medicine. If an ingredient is missing, select it to open How to Obtain.

Stronger medicines can require rarer ingredients and recipe unlocks. Select a recipe to check its requirements and healing effect before gathering materials.

Choose Hemostatic Powder in Brew Medicine, set the quantity and check the costs above Craft Medicine.

Buy Medicine Without Gathering

If you want to skip gathering, buy ready-made Hemostatic Powder from a merchant. Open the powder’s item details and find How to Obtain. Select Xiong Da, Peddler at Heaven’s Pier to locate him on the map, then choose Track and follow the marker to his stall.

The same list shows other sellers and their available stock. Use these entries to locate a merchant instead of searching for the name yourself.

How to Obtain lists Xiong Da at Heaven’s Pier first. Select the seller’s entry to locate the shop.

Equip Medicine in Quick Use

Crafting puts medicine in your inventory; you still need to equip it. Open Bag (opens in a new tab) → Develop. It starts on Gear, so switch to Quick Use (opens in a new tab), select the Medicine slot, then choose Hemostatic Powder and Equip. Return here to change your equipped medicine.

For an overview of the other slots, see Bag & Inventory (opens in a new tab).

In Develop, switch from Gear to Quick Use (opens in a new tab). The Medicine slot is on the left; choose a healing item from the list below.

Refill Your Carried Charges

Owned is your reserve stock. The carried counter, such as 4/4, shows the charges ready to use and your carrying limit. With 60 bottles in reserve and a limit of three, you can heal three times before needing a refill.

Stand beside an activated Boundary Stone (opens in a new tab) to refill from the stock of your equipped medicine. If Owned is zero, craft or buy more of that same medicine. Stock of a different medicine will not refill it.

To carry more charges between refills, upgrade your Medicine Chest below.

Owned 10 is the reserve stock. The 4/4 counter means four charges are ready to use, with a carrying limit of four.

Upgrade the Medicine Chest

Upgrade your Medicine Chest to carry more healing charges between refills. Medicinal Tales are the books you exchange for these upgrades.

Take your books to Evercare Clinic, south of Blissful Retreat. Speak to Yao Yaoyao outside the entrance and choose Submit Medicinal Tale.

Use the arrows to preview the next level and its book cost. When you have enough books, select Upgrade, then refill at a Boundary Stone (opens in a new tab) to fill the new capacity.

Find Evercare Clinic south of Blissful Retreat, then speak to Yao Yaoyao outside the entrance.
This Lv.4 → Lv.5 upgrade raises the carrying limit from two to three charges. It costs six Medicinal Tales; five are currently owned.

What’s Stopping You?

Craft Medicine Is Unavailable

Check the red cost in Brew Medicine. Gather the missing Herb or Meat Scrap. If Stamina is the shortage, open Hemostatic Powder’s How to Obtain list, select a merchant to locate the shop on the map, then Track it to buy ready-made medicine.

The Medicine Count Did Not Increase

Crafting increases Owned, your reserve stock. Refill at a Boundary Stone (opens in a new tab) to restore carried charges. If you are already at 4/4, you need a Medicine Chest upgrade to raise the limit; more crafting will not increase it. If a refill does nothing, check that you have stock of the medicine you equipped.

My Upgrade Did Not Add a Charge

Some Medicine Chest levels improve healing without adding a charge. Preview later levels to find the next capacity increase and its Medicinal Tales cost.

I Have Full HP but Still Feel Unwell

Open the red illness icon near the minimap and check Constitution. An injury or illness can remain after HP recovers. Injuries & Treatment (opens in a new tab) explains the clinic and player-healer options.
