In Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, facing enemies with various deadly abilities is a constant challenge. Naturally, they’re hell-bent on decimating you. Mastering your Special Abilities and wielding powerful weapons is essential to even the playing field.
In any fight, you’re bound to take damage. Proper health management can make all the difference and prevent you from losing progress. Luckily, there are multiple ways to go about this.
How to Heal in Space Marine 2
Before diving into the methods to heal in Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, there are a few things you should be aware of:
Medicae Stimms
The main way to regenerate health is by using Medicae Stimms. These useful medical supplies can restore 30% of your health with a single use. However, using them on missions with low difficulty will result in lower health regeneration.
Another noteworthy point about the Medicae Stimms is that they do not increase your contested health. On the flip side, they can improve it by dealing damage (or killing) to your enemies.
Lastly, they’re found throughout the Operations game mode. Hence, their abundance will not be of concern. All you have to do is keep an eye out for them while exploring.
Healing Mortal Wounds
Once you’ve used Medicae Stimms to regenerate your health, the Mortal Wound Debuff will be removed.
There are two downsides to this:
- It deems you unable to be revived.
- It delays respawn time.
This is why it is always great to use Medica Stimms when you’ve got a Mortal Wound.
Healing Contested Health
The white portion of your health bar is known as Contested Health.
There are two main strategies you should focus on to recover your contested health. Each method requires careful execution during battle to ensure you can stay in the fight longer. Here are the two ways you can retrieve contested health:
- Deal damage to your enemies.
- Execute your opponents (results in an instant (and complete) recovery.)
A key point is that the contested health will not be available forever, so you must be on your toes.
Class and Weapon Perks
Apart from dealing damage, there are a few Class and Weapon Perks that can help increase your Contested health:
- Vanguard: Unmatched Zeal (Team Perk).
- Bulwark: Invigorating Icon (Gear Perk).
- Heavy: Bonds of Brotherhood (Team Perk).
Use the following Weapon Perks:
- Rapid Health: Killing ten enemies in rapid succession will increase your health by 5%. (Only works when your health is below 30%).
- Elite Health: Eliminating a Majoris-level enemy using a melee weapon will increase your health by 5%. (Only works when your health is below 30%).
- Instant Health: Killing three enemies with a single shot increases health by 5%.(Only works when your health is below 30%).
