When to Use Recovery Items

To Restore MP/HP

HP and MP are both important resources to manage even against normal encounters. Approaching enemies while being low on HP can spell a quick gameover while suddenly facing a strong foe without any MP will likely spell defeat. Manage your items and make sure you can up your HP or MP during crucial moments.

To Remove Status Ailments

Ailments gives nasty effects such as preventing proper movement to slowly depleting your HP. Make sure that your party isn't suffering from status ailments especially during tough challenges!

Use in Boss Fights

Recovery items are almost always best saved for boss fights, especially when it comes to MP recovery items. Most regular enemies you face won't put too much of a strain on your party before you have a chance to rest up. Bosses, however, have a lot more HP, meaning you'll need more MP to both heal and attack the boss' weakness.

Demon Negotiations

Recovery items can be used as a bargaining chip in Demon Negotiations. Demons will demand certain recovery items or Macca for a chance to recruit them, however even after investing resources there is no guarantee that they will join your team. If the Demon is demanding a particularly valuable item, it might be best to turn them down.
