In the heat of battle in *Dynasty Warriors: Origins*, taking damage is inevitable, especially for newcomers or those tackling higher difficulty settings. But don't worry, replenishing your health is a simple process. You'll quickly learn how to stay in the fight!
Healing in *Dynasty Warriors: Origins* is achieved by using a readily available item: the meat bun. These aren't just delicious; they're essential for survival. You can find them by smashing pots near enemy bases, and sometimes even as loot dropped by defeated enemy officers (on Historian and Wayfarer difficulty only). Officers on Hero and Ultimate Warrior difficulty will not drop meat buns.
How to Heal in Dynasty Warriors: Origins

To use a meat bun, simply press Up on the D-Pad. But be warned: if your inventory is full when you collect a meat bun, and you aren't at full health, it will be automatically consumed. Initially, you can only carry three meat buns, but the "Meat Bun Glutton" skill lets you increase your carrying capacity if needed.

Prefer a hands-off approach? Head to the Configuration menu and enable "Auto-Use Meat Buns." This handy feature automatically consumes meat buns when your health drops below a certain threshold. Even with auto-use enabled, you can still manually use meat buns whenever you want, making it a worthwhile option regardless of your play style.
