Characteristics
Overview
Heal yourself or others with this bandage. Left-click heals you, right-click heals a target.
Use it to stop bleeding and to top up the small damage you collect on the way: an arrow from a naked, a fall off a rock, a wolf that got one bite in. It costs four cloth and needs no workbench, so the first few come out of the hemp you pick right after you spawn.
The heal itself is small. In a real fight one bandage barely moves your health bar, and while you wrap yourself up you are not shooting. That is exactly where new players lose: they hide behind a tree and bandage while the other guy reloads in peace. Bandages belong to the quiet minute after the fight.
Tip
LMB bandages you, RMB bandages the teammate you are looking at. A friend who walks out of a roam fight bleeding is the textbook case.
Once you have a Level 1 bench and some honey, the honey bandage does the same job better. For fights you want a medical syringe. The rest of the healing ladder is on the Medical page.
