In the heat of battle in *Dynasty Warriors: Origins*, taking damage is inevitable, especially for newcomers or those tackling higher difficulty settings. But don't worry, replenishing your health is surprisingly simple. You'll need to use a special item: the humble meat bun!
The game even offers a handy auto-healing feature for those who prefer not to micromanage their health constantly. Let's dive into the details.
How to Heal in Dynasty Warriors: Origins

Just like in previous *Dynasty Warriors* titles, meat buns are your key to recovery. These can be found by smashing pots near enemy bases. Defeated enemy officers might also drop them, but only on Historian and Wayfarer difficulty levels. Hero and Ultimate Warrior difficulties remove this drop.

To use a meat bun, simply press Up on the D-Pad—provided you have one in your inventory, of course! If your inventory is full when you collect a meat bun, it will be automatically consumed unless you're already at full health. Initially, you can only carry three, but the "Meat Bun Glutton" skill increases your carrying capacity if you find yourself needing more.

Prefer a hands-off approach? Enable the "Auto-Use Meat Buns" option in the Configuration menu. This automatically uses meat buns when your health drops below a certain threshold. Rest assured, you can still manually use meat buns even with auto-use enabled—it's a great safety net!
