In Hyper Light Breaker, mastering the use of the seven available resources is crucial for players aiming to gear up, unlock permanent upgrades, enhance survivability, and expand their character roster. Understanding how to acquire and utilize these resources can initially be challenging, but this guide aims to clarify their purposes and methods of acquisition, ensuring you have a comprehensive understanding of Hyper Light Breaker's resource system.

Resources are conveniently stored under the items tab in the inventory menu, allowing players to easily track their collected resources.

How to Get & Use Bright Blood in Hyper Light Breaker

Bright Blood, the most abundant resource in Hyper Light Breaker, can be earned by defeating enemies, destroying objects, and opening crates within the Overgrowth. Additionally, selling gear to vendors in the Hub will also yield Bright Blood.

Players can utilize Bright Blood for several key actions:

• Loot Blades and Rails from bodies scattered across the Overgrowth.
• Unlock Stashes and other crates within the Overgrowth.
• Purchase new gear from vendors located in both the Overgrowth and the Hub.
• Upgrade existing gear at vendors in the Hub.

How to Get & Use Gold Ration in Hyper Light Breaker

Gold Rations are earned by successfully completing Cycles. Initially, players will likely complete Cycles by exhausting all four Rezes and dying. After using up all Rezes, players will encounter an NPC at the Telepad in the Hub who will request specific materials to reset the Overgrowth, aiding in the progression towards earning Gold Rations.

Gold Rations are vital for the game's meta-progression system. They are used to unlock permanent upgrades through Pherus Bit in the Hub and can also be traded to Hub vendors to access new services.

How to Get & Use Abyss Stone in Hyper Light Breaker

Abyss Stones are obtained by defeating Crowns, formidable bosses accessible through gates in the Overgrowth. To engage these bosses, players must first collect Prisms, indicated by yellow diamonds on the in-game map.

Similar to Gold Rations, Abyss Stones contribute to meta-progression. They can be used to enhance the stats of Sycoms and unlock new characters during loadout confirmation before entering the Overgrowth, providing significant advantages in future runs.

How to Get & Use Key in Hyper Light Breaker

Keys can be sporadically found in small containers within the Overgrowth. These containers are typically not marked on the map, making Keys somewhat elusive.

Keys serve to bypass barriers in the Overgrowth, granting access to Stashes and other lootable containers. They are also essential for entering Labs, underground zones filled with enemies and valuable items.

How to Get & Use MediGem in Hyper Light Breaker

MediGems, a critical resource, are obtained by interacting with glowing flowers in the Overgrowth. Their importance lies in their exchange for Medkits, which can be acquired at the Hub's Telepad and at Shrines within the Overgrowth.

Before utilizing MediGems, players must expand their Medkit capacity to one. This can be achieved 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 meta-progression resource found in the Overgrowth's Stashes, marked by chest icons on the map. Players can also combine four Core Shards to form a Core. Core Shards are obtained by defeating enemies that drop Prisms and from unmarked lootable objects like bone piles.

Cores are used to upgrade a player's Sycom during loadout confirmation, allowing for stat improvements that enhance performance in the Overgrowth.

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 map. Additional Materials can be obtained by selling gear to vendors in the Hub.

Materials are used to purchase gear from vendors in both the Hub and the Overgrowth, serving a role similar to Bright Blood, albeit with more specific applications.
