List of Potions

Health Potions

There are only three types of health potions in the game, but they are very important to keep on you, especially before a difficult quest. Health potions require meat harvested from animals to craft, so they are quite scarce unless you buy them off a merchant. Note that your medicine pouch should be considered your main source of healing, with potions being an emergency heal.

There are three types of trap items (not including Tripcaster ammo) that can be crafted in Horizon Zero Dawn. These items are useful for quick bursts of damage, or to stun enemies to get in a quick critical hit.

Ammo

Aside from the spear, all of Aloy's weapons require certain ammo types. Each weapon has a maximum of 3 different ammo types, so be sure you have enough ammo crafted before you plan on using a particular weapon in battle. Note you can pause to craft more ammo at any time.
