Sadly, most of us aren’t immortal. We are each made from squishy bags of flesh, that don’t do well when stabbed, sliced or otherwise turned into a pincushion. In Dragonwilds, we represent the stability of our squishy fleshy bits by our Hitpoints.
When we’re injured, our Hitpoints go down. If they reach zero, why I’m afraid that’s rather it. Well, until you resurrect of course – handy thing that. You can recover Hitpoints with certain potions, or by making sure you’re well fed.
Stamina, is the measure of how tired we are. The lower your stamina, the less energy you have and you need a little bit of energy to handle most tasks. Attacking, dodging and skilling all use stamina when you engage in them. If your stamina is at zero, you won’t be able to perform the action you are attempting to do.
Fortunately, stamina recovers over time, especially if you keep yourself well hydrated.
