Temporary Healing vs. True Healing

Temporary healing abilities only add a temporary buffer to character health, and characters will always exit battle with their true health levels instead. True healing powers can affect true health levels however, and are thus very useful for keeping characters in fighting form across multiple battles.

A common tactic is to send wounded characters with true healing powers into the Prologue Chapters so they can heal themselves up through easy battles.

The following abilities are considered temporary healing:
- Black Widow (Original): Anti-Gravity Device - This ability uses gravitic fields that lets heroes fight more easily despite injuries. It doesn't heal them of these injuries however.
- Spider-Man (Classic): Web Bandages - These bandages help heroes fight through pain but do not provide actual healing.
- Kamala Khan (Ms. Marvel): Bring Out the Best
- Beast (Classic): Medical Marvel
- Ragnarok (Dark Avengers Thor): Lightning Rod

The following abilities are considered true healing:
- Ares (Dark Avengers): Sunder - This ability is more a moment of weakness than actual damage, so Ares gains health back when the weakness passes. The true healing will be applied even if Ares is already affected by temporary healing.
- Daken (Classic) and Daken (Dark Avengers Wolverine): Healing & Heat
- Deadpool (It's Me, Deadpool!): Life of the Party
- Rocket & Groot (Most Wanted): I am Groot
- Wolverine (Patch) and Wolverine (Astonishing X-Men): Healing Factor
- Wolverine (X-Force): Recovery

Healing Rates

Characters will naturally regenerate health over time when out of battle at the following rates:

Common: 12 health per minute.
Uncommon: 18 health per minute.
Rare and Gold: 24 health per minute.
Legendary: 30 health per minute.

Some characters recover even faster from wounds to reflect the regenerative powers they possess in their comic origins, and they will heal at double the rate listed above. A (currently incomplete) list of such characters follows below:
