Hit Points

Hit Points (or HP) define the amount of damage your character can take before dying.

When your hit points reach 0 or below, you fall on the ground knocked down, which means you can only whisper. While knocked down you are unable to do anything. When your HP goes to -100 you will die. Your HP will regenerate every 5 seconds, allowing your character to stand back up when it reaches 1 or above.

Hit Points regeneration

You can get back your hit points in the following ways:

• Hit points regenerate every 5 seconds by the amount determined by your Healing Rate.
• Using a Stimpak, Healing Powder or Super Stimpak will regenerate hit points - take care about the drugs inconveniences first, though.
• Using the First Aid skill will heal an amount of hit points determined by your skill and your Bandaged level. First Aid is typically more effective to use on your friends, than it is on yourself.

Maximum Hit Points

The formula for the Maximum Hit Points at Level 24 is given by:

160 + Math.floor(17.65 * Math.pow(Strength, 0.509) + 2 * 17.65 * Math.pow(Endurance, 0.509));

Additionally, you will be awarded more hit points when you go up a Level. The formula for hit points per certain level is given by:

health = Math.floor(health * (75 + 25 * level / 24) / 100);

After you reached level 24, you will no longer get any HP bonus.

The Perk Lifegiver grants you a one time bonus of +20 Hit Points. It can only be taken once.
