In Hyper Light Breaker, mastering the game involves collecting seven crucial resources. These resources are essential for acquiring gear, unlocking permanent upgrades, enhancing survivability, and expanding your character roster. However, figuring out how to obtain and utilize these resources can be challenging. This comprehensive guide aims to clarify the process, ensuring players have a thorough understanding of each resource's role in Hyper Light Breaker.
Resources are neatly stored under the items tab in the inventory menu, allowing players to easily track their collection at any time.
How to Get & Use Bright Blood in Hyper Light Breaker
Bright Blood is the most abundant resource in Hyper Light Breaker. Players can acquire it by defeating enemies, smashing destructible objects, and opening crates within the Overgrowth. Additionally, selling gear to vendors in the Hub provides another avenue for earning Bright Blood.
With Bright Blood, players can perform several key actions:
- Loot Blades and Rails from fallen enemies in the Overgrowth.
- Unlock Stashes and other containers in the Overgrowth.
- Purchase new gear from vendors in both the Overgrowth and the Hub.
- Upgrade existing gear at the Hub's vendors.
How to Get & Use Gold Ration in Hyper Light Breaker
Gold Rations are earned by completing Cycles in Hyper Light Breaker. In the game's early stages, players typically complete Cycles after exhausting four Rezes. After using all Rezes, players will encounter an NPC at the Telepad in the Hub, who requests materials to reset the Overgrowth. This process contributes to earning Gold Rations.
Gold Rations are vital for the game's meta-progression system. Players can use them to unlock permanent upgrades through Pherus Bit in the Hub. Additionally, offering Gold Rations to Hub vendors unlocks new services, enhancing the gameplay experience.
How to Get & Use Abyss Stone in Hyper Light Breaker
Abyss Stones are obtained by defeating challenging Crowns, which are found behind gates in the Overgrowth. To face Crowns, players must first collect Prism, marked by yellow diamonds on the in-game map.
Like Gold Rations, Abyss Stones contribute to meta-progression. They are used to upgrade Sycom stats and unlock new characters during loadout confirmation before entering the Overgrowth, providing strategic advantages for future adventures.
How to Get & Use Key in Hyper Light Breaker
Keys are occasionally found by opening small containers in the Overgrowth. These containers are not typically marked on the in-game map, making Keys a bit elusive.
Keys serve as a means to bypass barriers in the Overgrowth, granting access to Stashes and other lootable containers. They also unlock Labs, underground areas filled with enemies and collectibles.
How to Get & Use MediGem in Hyper Light Breaker
MediGems are crucial for survival in Hyper Light Breaker. Players can collect them from small glowing flowers in the Overgrowth. MediGems are exchanged for Medkits at the Hub's Telepad or at Shrines in the Overgrowth.
Before using MediGems, players must expand their Medkit capacity to one by visiting Pherus Bit in the Hub and spending one Gold Ration to unlock the Medkit Capacity node.
How to Get & Use Core in Hyper Light Breaker
Cores are another resource vital for meta-progression. They can be found in Stashes in the Overgrowth, marked by chest icons on the map. Alternatively, players can combine four Core Shards to form a Core. Core Shards are obtained by defeating Prism-awarding enemies, marked by yellow diamonds, and from unmarked lootable objects like bone piles.
Cores are used to upgrade Sycoms during loadout confirmation before entering the Overgrowth, allowing players to enhance their Breakers' stats.
How to Get & Use Material in Hyper Light Breaker
Materials are primarily acquired by using Bright Blood to open small chests in the Overgrowth, often marked by gems on the in-game map. Players can also gain additional Materials by selling gear to vendors in the Hub.
Materials are used to purchase gear from vendors in both the Hub and the Overgrowth. While similar to Bright Blood, Materials have more specific applications, making them a valuable resource in their own right.
