HP Potion
HP Potions are a mechanic in the combat of Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and Torna ~ The Golden Country. They are green-glowing capsules that are thrown onto the ground during combat. When a Driver or Vanguard character walks over a HP potion, it is consumed, healing all party members.
There are three types of HP potions: small, medium, and large. Small HP potions are spawned by certain Driver Arts/Vanguard Arts and Specials. They primarily come from weapons and Blades with HLR roles, but not exclusively. A medium HP potion is spawned when a party member topples or launches an enemy (not if it topples or launches itself), and a large HP potion is spawned when a party member smashes an enemy.
The amount a character heals from an HP potion is proportional to their maximum HP:
Size | HP restored (XC2) | HP restored (TTGC) |
---|---|---|
Small | 10% | 8% |
Medium | 25% | 20% |
Large | 40% | 32% |
This value is increased by using Classes with HLR-type Blades. It can also be increased with Driver Skills such as Herb Synthesis, as well as effects such as that of the Activity Amulet.
The average distance from an enemy that the HP potion will be thrown is proportional to the enemy's size. With big enemies, it's much more likely that the player will have to run significant distances to pick up a potion. In main-game Xenoblade Chronicles 2, using Specials heavily mitigates this issue, as Drivers run much more quickly during Specials.
