How to heal - Saros

Taking time to heal between fights makes the difference between a successful cycle or a failed one in Saros.

by · Shacknews

While the ideal situation is that you never get hit when playing Saros, sometimes you’ll get knocked about an lose health, called Armor Integrity. Lose all your health and Arjun will die, resetting the cycle. To keep the fight going, you’re going to need to know how to heal and how to increase the number of heals you can reasonably receive.

How to heal

Collecting Aether is the primary way to heal in Saros.

Collect Aether to heal your Armor Integrity in Saros. These are the green orbs that can be found as you explore the hostile world of Carcosa and are the primary means of healing yourself. At the start of the game, they are difficult to find and seem to only drop after major encounters. However, this changes after you make some progress.

By diving into the Armor Matrix, you can increase the effectiveness of Aether so that each one you collect heals you for more. You can even increase frequency at which they drop. This will make it so that enemies sometimes drop Aether, which will keep you in the fight for longer.

The one thing to keep in mind about healing is that Aether does not cure Corruption. You will need to cleanse Corruption using an entirely different method. Stop by our Saros page for more help with the game.
