Question about healing items

    Can someone tell me what is better for healing the maximum amount of HP.

    Med Kids (large)
    or
    Bottled Healing Water

    Thanks!

    Want to know whether to focus on crafting med packs or bottles of healing water.

    I'd rather keep the healing water for a healthy moat-bath around my soon to be made base, so thanks in advance to anyone who answers.

    Why must the fight against childhood obesity extend to even the outer reaches of the Starbound universe!? Why can't we just let children be children and adults eat children to heal back to full? Do we really need to talk about exercise and proper nutrition with a fantasy sci-fi game? (joke)

    Attempts at humor aside, I'd also like to know, especially if both are available at similar tiers. Additionally, do beds heal percentages of hp now, or do they still do static healing?

    Some beds seem to heal +1 and some +2

    On the floran party mission one of the beds healed +2, but I haven't found any with higher healing capacity yet.

    They heal differently. The healing water is more of a long term slow heal, similar to food and a stimpack. The med kit is for a quick heal.

    Whats the best medical (as in quick heal) healing item?

    Nano bandages? Red stims? Medkits?

    Nano Bandages are the best for quick healing. Unlike Med Kits that heal up to 60 health, Nano Bandages goes up to 100. However, they can be difficult to get since you'll have to randomly find them in chests, likely only on level 6 planets. I think level 6 NPCs can also drop them, but otherwise, you can't easily stockpile them.

    Hmm? In yesterdays nightly you could get the portable pixel printer from the research station in your upgraded ship. Using said item allowed you to make nano-bandages. Im assuming its not removed again.

    Thanks for the answers. Haven't reached level 6 gear yet. Will probably start again with a new toon when the stable update downloads.

    I haven't played the newest Nightly so perhaps that is the case, but I remember from playing the unstable some time ago that Nano Bandages wasn't craftable. Hopefully with Stable coming all of this mix match of what's is and isn't a part of the game will die down.
