Are medical inhalers better or worth it?

[Tipoff Giggots]

Are they more efficient and worth the cost or is it easier to just use berries, nuts, bacon's, etc?

They are better but you will encounter the issue of you are missing 5 hp and wonder is it worth it to spend an inhaler or use berries/nuts instead. Bacons are never worth eating on its own since that is the limiting resource to make the medical inhaler.

Note they have a few second delay before the heal kicks in compared to berries and nuts that take effect much quicker.

[Bobucles]

Bacons are a limited (if abundant) resource and should always be invested into inhalers. Berries and nuts are good enough for cuts and bruises. Inhalers are more for swan diving off cliffs and dealing with monsters/radiation.

I never used them, since you can pickup PLENTY of berries and mushrooms. But maybe u can keep a few in cause u are going to fight the mini-bosses, and u may need a quick full hp heal. But even in that case, just jump with jetpack and quick eat some fruits. I had plenty of fights and never died even if I never used the rifle (I love the sword!)!

The only time i used the inhalers a lot was when i was exploring the middle of the map. That is stuff hits the fan with all those radiation, poison gas and multiple spitters/ hogs. Otherwise I just carry nuts and berries.

Once you get the recipe to use organs and mycea, it is much easier to make inhalers.

[Dark Phoenix]

I prefer the organs recipe for inhalers personally. Nuts and berries for small or emergancy healing, inhalers for the big hits.

Though after a while you are swimming in organs, so i tend to not feel bad for using one for a couple of bars :)

wait since when have bacons been more restrictive than berries?
like you find almost just as many berries as you find bacons but need more of the for one inhaler?

[Squid Game Foofoo]

Liobuster, bacons are restrictive because they dont respawn.

Berrys and nuts respawn as long as you don’t cut the plant it can be picked from but for the bacons, it is the plant itself so when picked, it doesn’t respawn. The alternative recipe that uses organs have a longer use and might be self sustaining if the game bugs out and respawn the trees that drops the myesca.

Theres so many mushrooms in the game...they can be found in caves, in some areas as ground cover, as well as found when you use a chainsaw on various trees...more than enough to have a good stock of inhalers.

[Liobuster]

they definitely do respawn in the red swamp though...

ive collected them at least 3 times there already

[nfgman]

I'm hoping inhalers and power shards might be worth something to Ficsit eventually because I've got plenty.

When you're taking damage from the larger enemies it's likely that you can't heal yourself with just berries/nuts faster than they are killing you. Especially if there's many of them and you're struggling to avoid them all.

[Liobuster]

or I f you are traversing one of the gas barriers without a mask because masks suck :P

[the7thguest]

Get alternative recipies and craft em with fungus and leftovers from monsters, I got 2 stacks ready in my base just in case ^^

Personally I buy the enhalers from the ticket machine. They only cost 1 ticket for 5 enhalers. Now allot would say thats a waste of tickets. But in my opinion I can setup a factory to make tickets automatically. Where if I want to craft them I need to go out and harvest the stuff.

Granted allot of that has todo with me starting in the desert biome. So I dont gather very many paleberries. Nore do I harvest enough organs to go through the amount of enhalers I use. Although I will say I am pretty wasteful with the enhalers. I will pop one off even if I am only two hearts down. But thats the advantage of using the tickets
