Hyper Light Breaker features seven crucial resources vital for acquiring gear, unlocking permanent upgrades, boosting survivability, and expanding your character roster. While their acquisition and usage might not be immediately apparent, this guide clarifies their roles. Resources are conveniently stored in the inventory's items tab, allowing for easy tracking.

How to Get & Use Bright Blood in Hyper Light Breaker

Bright Blood, the most common resource, is earned by defeating enemies, destroying objects, and opening crates in the Overgrowth. Selling gear to Hub vendors also yields Bright Blood.

Its uses include:

• Looting Blades and Rails from corpses in the Overgrowth.
• Opening Stashes and crates in the Overgrowth.
• Purchasing gear from Overgrowth and Hub vendors.
• Upgrading gear at Hub vendors.

How to Get & Use Gold Ration in Hyper Light Breaker

Gold Rations are earned by completing Cycles. Early game Cycles involve dying four times and using all Rezes. After depleting your Rezes, find the NPC at the Hub's Telepad; provide the requested materials to reset the Overgrowth and progress towards Gold Rations.

Gold Rations are key to meta-progression, enabling permanent upgrades via Pherus Bit in the Hub. They also unlock new vendor services.

How to Get & Use Abyss Stone in Hyper Light Breaker

Abyss Stones are obtained by defeating Crowns—challenging bosses found via Overgrowth gates. Note: Collecting Prisms (marked by yellow diamonds on the map) is a prerequisite for Crown battles.

Similar to Gold Rations, Abyss Stones are meta-progression resources. Use them to upgrade Sycom stats and unlock new characters during loadout confirmation before entering the Overgrowth.

How to Get & Use Key in Hyper Light Breaker

Keys are occasionally found in unmarked small containers within the Overgrowth.

Keys bypass Overgrowth barriers, granting access to Stashes and other containers. They also open Labs, subterranean areas containing enemies and loot.

How to Get & Use MediGem in Hyper Light Breaker

Extremely valuable, MediGems are earned by interacting with glowing flowers in the Overgrowth. They're exchanged for Medkits at the Hub's Telepad and Overgrowth Shrines.

Medkit capacity must be expanded to one before using MediGems. Unlock this at Pherus Bit in the Hub using one Gold Ration.

How to Get & Use Core in Hyper Light Breaker

Cores, another meta-progression resource, are found in Overgrowth Stashes (marked by chest icons) or by combining four Core Shards. Shards are obtained from enemies that award Prisms and unmarked lootable objects.

Cores upgrade your Sycom during loadout confirmation, improving Breaker stats.

How to Get & Use Material in Hyper Light Breaker

Materials are primarily gained by using Bright Blood to open small chests (often marked with gems) in the Overgrowth. Selling gear at the Hub also provides Materials.

Materials are used to purchase gear from Hub and Overgrowth vendors, functioning similarly to Bright Blood but with more limited applications.
