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
- 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
- Wolverine (Patch) and Wolverine (Astonishing X-Men): Healing Factor
- Wolverine (X-Force): Recovery
