====== General: Healing ====== The main way of getting killed in DuneMUD, is getting your Hit Points drained. If you are not suicidal, you would probably wish to avoid that. No matter how strong you are, you will eventually get hit, and to avoid dying, you must make sure to heal your HP often. There are several ways of accomplishing this: A) The simplest way of healing, is simply doing nothing. You could always just wait for your wounds to heal by themselves, regaining a small amount of your HP every few seconds. However, due to its speed, this way of healing is utterly useless in combat. B) Another effective way of healing for newbies, which do not have the patience to wait for autohealing and have some spare solaris, is using newbie dispensers. These dispensers can be found in many newbie areas. However, they cannot be used beyond level 7. C) A healing method that often costs somewhat more solaris, is simply eating. Food can be obtained in various ways, the most common being buying it in shops. Food is very useful in combat, as it can heal instantly, quickly, and anywhere, but costs quite a bit, and has an eating limit before becoming satiated. D) Most, if not all guilds, have one or more healing skills. Vast majority of those skills are quite useful in combat. Consult your guild's help files for more information.
