Healing food and auto-feed: keep your Overworld party ready
Find usable cooked food, understand the auto-feed trigger, and troubleshoot food that is in storage but unavailable during a fight.
How do I heal with food?
Catch or obtain ingredients, cook an available recipe at a suitable station, and carry the finished food in the Overworld bag. Read each food's healing amount, affected heroes and cooldown. Raw ingredients, decorative goods and an item merely named like food are not automatically usable healing supplies.
Fishing and Cooking are a practical starting route. Check the local fishing node, your rod, available storage and the recipe's Cooking requirement. Buy a finished supply when an appropriate market listing is available if you would rather spend time on another skill.
When does auto-feed activate?
When enabled, auto-feed considers a living active hero after a fresh damaging hit if the hero is below 60% of maximum HP. It needs eligible cooked food in the bag, an available cooldown and an active, ready scene. Low HP alone while idle is not the same trigger. It does not revive a defeated hero or guarantee survival against every attack.
Which food is used first?
A valid preferred food is used when stocked. Otherwise the system chooses eligible basic food before stronger options according to its food priority. If a preferred stack runs out, the preference can remain saved while another usable food is selected. You can still use food manually when its conditions and cooldown permit it.
Why is my food not being used?
- Check the Overworld bag, not only the bank or a recipe ingredient list.
- Confirm auto-feed is enabled and the active hero is alive.
- Check whether the food cooldown is ready.
- Confirm the food is a usable cooked healing supply.
- Remember that the automatic trigger needs fresh damage below the threshold; it is not continuous idle regeneration.
Keep enough basic food for routine travel. Save stronger party meals for situations where their actual effects help. When checking an older guide, use the current food tooltip and Cooking recipes to resolve differences.
