Root Network

#Overview

Root Network makes Tibo regenerate HP over time. Each level adds 0.25 HP per second: 0.25 HP/s (15 HP per minute) at level 1 and 1.25 HP/s (75 HP per minute) at level 5. Healing stops at max HP.

It is the catalyst for Pressure Cooker (from Steam Vent) and Spud Grid (from Potato Battery). At level 5 it also evolves Static Tot into Storm Tot.

#How it works

Recovery is applied every tick as recovery × elapsed time, capped at max HP.^[1] It is a flat amount, so it does not scale with max HP, difficulty or the run clock.

Other recovery sources are Pickle Jar (+0.1) and the auras of the dogs Link, Barrel and Zelda & Link.

#Tips

• Enemy damage grows over the run (see Enemy scaling) while recovery stays the same, so Root Network matters most early. Late in a run, armor or dodge is likely to do more for survival.
• Pressure Cooker also heals (“Each enemy it burns heals Tibo.”), which suits a sustain build built around Root Network.

#Levels

Totals are added to Tibo's stat sum. How each stat turns into a multiplier (caps and diminishing returns) is on Stats.
