A story and a question.

Hey folks, so today I was walking around the houses near the NEAF. I was on low blood from nearly dying of dehydration because of the new hot weather that came with .50. I walked up the road, still low on water and a few minutes away from dehydrating again. I come to a small village with a trio of guys, all armed. I immediately put my mosin on my back and saluted and put my hands up. They came over and talked to me. I dropped my mosin which disappeared, and spent 2 minutes looking for the water bottle they dropped in a effort to save me. I moved away 50m to resync with the area and I came back to the sound of mosins. I had cleverly concealed my cr75 up to this point and ran into a house where I found soda to save me. I followed one of the survivors into the house, and found a dead body as well as him giving the death shot to someone else. I aimed my pistol, and fired all 8 shots in my mag into his shoulders. He died. I had now had 3 bodies all to myself. I gained much ammo, a PU scope, and many more little things. I am now at very low blood and gray screen and want to regenerate without having to track down some freshspawn to give me an IV(I play solo)

How much food and water do I need to naturally regenerate? I'm at hydrated for water and no effect for food.

Also how long will it take to get to mostly full blood?

Thanks.

you dont need that much, i dont know how much exactly but the food from 3 bodies or if they didnt have anything, the food of a small village should give you the energized status (especially now that loot spawns in almost every building, even the ones that did not spawn loot in the previous patches like the log cabins).

and to regenerate to full blood it will take about half an hour if i remember correctly

 

edit: oh and definetely pick up canned peaches, they give about 3-4 times the amount of energy than the other stuff, such as beans etc.

You'll need to get "energized" bright green from food, then you'll start to heal and it'll take between 10 and 30 mins depending on how low on blood you are. Get rice, or 5-6 cans of peaches or beans, and you'll be good. Only 1 bag of rice is enough though.

 

You can also ask for medical assistance on the forum.

Ok guys, thanks.

Maybe I'll help out on the medics thread since I acquired a morphine auto-injector :D

If you're still at NEAF and dehydrated, there's a pond directly behind where the ATC building used to be, roughly behind where the new building is now. I've also noticed that eating many foods such as fruit and vegetables restores some water, though I don't know exactly how much. I know there's a chart on a site somewhere that lists exactly how much energy/water certain foods will give you but I can't remember where I saw it.
