Question about max health

[Tea ♡]

What is the cap?

We cannot stack all these things?
- wearing 3 vitality jewels so I get level 3 health boost
- eating a meal from the canteen that grants +50 health
- consuming ancient potion

because after eating +50 health meal from the canteen, sometimes consuming ancient potion didn't give me more health .. can someone enlighten about this :S

[tehRein]

max hp is 200

[Zplayer96]

max is having 3 vitality jewels equipped and eating at the canteen so the max is 200

100 basic health
50 from three vitality jewels
50 from eating at the canteen

[Hikkichaos]

3 vitality jewels stack with canteen or ancient.
100 base health
+50 from 3 vitality jewels
+50 from canteen OR ancient potion

Max potion and canteen buff can not stack, only the higher apply. I'd recommand not eating for Health, but for specific canteen buffs instead (check a guide on that), and then eating a Max potion at the start of each hunt, reasoning being that Health buff from canteen is optional since you can emulate it with an item you'll bring in your pouch anyway, whereas canteen buffs are not so easily replaced, sometimes they even can't be.

Also, bring mega-nutrients and mandragora in your pouch to craft more Max potions on the fly. It's much faster to eat than potions.

What are the buffs that Canteen food can provide?

Meat generally provide Attack buffs, e.g: 6 x meat gives Attack up (L)
Fish gives Defence buff
Vegetable gives Resistance buff

Then there are useful specifics (required Canteen voucher to give 100% activation - this is what voucher supposed to be used for).

The two I used most of the time is:

Felyne Moxie - Prevents fainting one time when the HP is above 40-50. (If you were unsure, just pick HEALTHY FOOD from the list of food options).

Felyne Black Belt - Reduce Stamina depletion by 20%. Useful for stamina required weapon such as DualBlade and Bow.

200 ancient potion and canteen work toward the same total the only thing that raises it is health boost taking it from 150 to 200

[TrueArchery]

The health boost hunting horn song also belongs to the items/cantine group. If your party already has max hp from that group that song actually still heals as much as it'd have buffed, but the buff needs to wear off before you can use it as heal again.

Yeah, as others have said, the cap is 200.

There's up to +50 from buffs like the canteen, Hunting Horn, Nutrients, Max/Ancient Potions, and up to +50 from Health Boost. It never goes higher.

[!?!]

Eating a meal and the ancient potion use the same cap of a maximum of +50.
