Set in a post-apocalyptic environment, The Last of Us 2 needs your protagonist Ellie to be healthy both physically and mentally. The habitat on Earth after the apocalypse is hostile, and you need to be high on health all the time if you wish to survive in these harsh conditions. Shamblers will always be looking for a chance to attack you. So how do you boost up your health in Last of Us 2? There are a few ways to do it, and we will look into it all in this article.
You never know when and where you will end up taking damage in The Last of Us 2. So you need to know how to keep up your health. The best way is for you to use a Health kit. Now you can even craft one for yourself if you have the necessary ingredients. So let’s find out how to use a Medikit and how you can craft one for yourself in Last of Us 2.
How to heal yourself in The Last of Us 2?
The good thing about HealthKits is that you can find them almost anywhere in the game. When you do, just get close to it until you see an animation for it. When you see the animation, just press the d-pad on your console to equip it, and then you can hold the R2 button to start the healing process. This process can take a while, so make a note of your surroundings. Ensure that there is no danger lurking around. When you feel it is safe, only then go for the heal.
Now, if you can’t find a Healthkit and you need one to continue, then you can just craft it. The ingredients required to craft a HealthKit are one rag and one alcohol bottle. These can also be used to craft a Molotov. So depending on your situation, you can use these couple of ingredients to your advantage. If you are low on health, use them to craft a Healthkit. If you are in a tight spot and you need to fend off enemies, then use them for a Molotov. Find as many rags and alcohol bottles to have both MediKits and Molotovs for your defence in this post-apocalyptic scenario. Now for crafting a MediKit from these two ingredients, select the Medikit and then press the X button to craft it.
MediKits boost your health quite a lot, and its a necessity to have if you want to survive in The Last of Us 2. Now there is another way to boost your health up by a bit. When you explore around, look for restaurants, vending machines, and even local grocery stores for food. Eating food in The Last of Us 2 does help with your health a bit. It does not improve your health as much as a MediKit does, but in certain situations, even this could be your savior.
