Creatures Of Ava: How To Heal & Get Healing Brews

Victoria will encounter infected and untamed creatures or hostile characters during her expedition on the planet Ava. While she may suffer some attacks from these infected and untamed creatures, the latter can be tamed using a Flute, which we'll explain in a separate guide; this will cause her to lose some HP, which she will need to heal herself.

Healing will be imperative to their survival, and there are a few healing items to find through exploration, but they can also be crafted with the required resources and a Campfire. This guide discusses how players can heal themselves and how to get and craft Healing Brews in creatures of Ava.

How To Heal Your Character In Creatures Of Ava?

It's important for players to know when's the right time to heal or when to dash and jump away, but having some Healing Brews on hand may be of great value. Healing Brews are the first unique healing items players can obtain and consume to restore some HP to Victoria, and we'll discuss how to acquire them later.

To heal Victoria with a healing item, like Healing Brews, they must first access their Inventory by hitting the Menu button or TAB key and selecting the Inventory tab, where they can find all her collected items. Select the healing item they want to consume, highlight it in the Inventory, right-click the mouse or press the A button, and choose the Use option to heal Victoria.

Alternatively, to do this while in-game, they can bind to the Quick Access tab by heading into their Inventory and right-click the mouse or press the A button to bring up the item options. Choose any of the Quick Access options to bind the healing item before exiting the Inventory, and when in-game, press the Up Directional button or the 1 or 2 number key to consume as many healing items as needed.

How To Get And Craft Healing Brews In Creatures Of Ava?

Healing Brews can be found throughout Ava, with the earliest located at the start of the "Welcome to Ava" quest near the wreckage site. They can collect three Healing Brews by pressing the Y button or the F key to add it to the Inventory and can be bound to the Quick Access tab as explained earlier.

But, if they can't find more Healing Brews in the open world, they can also craft them with the recipe located under the Recipes option within the Databank tab when hitting the Menu button or TAB key. To craft one Healing Brew, they'll need six Green Essences, which only two items thus far contain: Rosearem Petal, which can be easily foraged in the first few hours, and Palia's Finger, which can be found a little later in-game.

However, they won't be able to craft Healing Brews just yet as they will need to unlock the Crafting mechanic, which requires completing the "A Warm Invitation" quest. This quest will grant them access to Campfires, which functions as crafting stations across Ava, and interacting with one allows them to craft any items as long as they have the resources required and unlock the recipes.
