Campfire in reverse
Campfire in reverse
I need to know why I try to use a campfire in the woods that it dont heal but take away your health. Can anyone explain why this is taking away your health instead healing you?
Hi there:
Look at your health bar before you camp. Do you see a green tear shape there? That means you have been poisoned. It can happen easily when surrounded by a mob of some kind. There are several kinds of venomous creatures in the game.
So when you camp while being poisoned it accelerates the poisoning (since time passes faster while camping), thus bringing your health down instead of back up. You can cure poison by drinking cure poison potions...availabe at apothecaries. There are also cure poison crystals available to Celestial guild members at the temple in Arindale.
*edit* Possible spoiler...highlight to read.

I tried something once. I had a ton of health potions before I attempted this, by the way...if you don't have a means to heal your character this won't work well. Say you are poisoned. You go to camp...keeping a very close eye on the health bar. When you have only about 1/4 of your total health left on the health bar, stop camping and drink a regular health potion...then camp again. Repeat the process and after a bit your poison will be cured.
Of course this really is useful in an area with no apothecary...for example a new character exploring the n00b forest is likely to get poisoned and you only start with one cure poison potion. Otherwise, it is easier (and much faster) to simply buy cure poison potions and crystals. But, if you don't have enough money to do so, or there is no place to purchase them you could try the above trick.
