ferrari32 0 Posted February 8, 2019 (edited) Hi! I'm not exactly a new player but I'm new to 1.0, so maybe there's some feature I've missed, can't seem to find anything about it online. I was looting Pavlovo base when I noticed my water bar going red, not much food/drink items there so I scroll to my inventory and see the saline bag. Item description says it helps fight dehydration and raises blood level. So I use it with an IV start kit (both the bag and kit were pristine) and all of a sudden my health drops to half. Blood's full, temperature's normal, yet I start losing health until I die, and water bar doesn't fill up, falls down even more (but not completely) and I die. Anyone have an idea what happened? I died through the course of like 2 minutes or so. Edited February 8, 2019 by ferrari32 Mistype Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How is this not obvious to someone who isn't a new player? In fact, don't rely on saline bags to stay hydrated. You need to drink water, eat food, drink soda. This is pretty obvious. If you run for several kilometers in real life wouldn't you expect to get thirsty? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know you need more saline bags, but it should give you a boost either way iirc. Also since when does dehydration take 2 minutes?

Pro tip: Don't run straight to a military base from the coast without managing hydration / food. I'm not sure if saline ever actually combated thirst though the way it's worded in the wiki it's misleading... I remember it contributed to blood volume but at a different rate than blood bags. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This, it just filled blood volume last time I checked no mater what in game tip or wiki said. The bit I've played recently hydration goes form red to dead in a hurry especially if you panic and sprint around trying to fix it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
