Knowing how to increase Kena's maximum health is crucial for dealing with the countless enemies she faces as she guides souls to the afterlife in Kena: Bridge of Spirits. The battles against the darkness become increasingly more challenging down the road, and Kena will need all the help that she can get. Unfortunately, Kena will have to deal with her health bar being as low as it is for the first few hours of the game.
Most of the boss fights in Kena: Bridge of Spirits will occur in two phases. Additionally, there are very few opportunities to become fully healed during every boss fight, which is why it's important to increase Kena's maximum health as often as possible. Kena's maximum health can only be increased by finding meditation points.
Meditation points are scattered throughout Kena: Bridge of Spirits. Many mediation points will be found after boss fights, but some can be found in secret areas while exploring the world. Hunting down the secret spots and meditation points is difficult, however, as many of them are sealed off or require a specific power to unlock. Defeating bosses and grabbing the meditation point afterward will be the surest way to increase Kena's maximum health.
How To Find Meditation Spots In Kena: Bridge of Spirits
The first meditation point is located at the top of the mountain where Kena meets with Rusu. Meditation points are marked by glowing blue circles and can be interacted with, at which point Kena sits down to regain her health. These are points for Kena to reflect upon her journey in Bridge of Spirits, so she'll remain in the meditation point until the player makes her leave.
Another early meditation spot in Kena: Bridge of Spirits is the Forbidden Forest. Kena is tasked with restoring the four shrines here, so it's an area that can't be missed. Players can head to the southernmost river and follow it until they reach a climbable platform. Kena can shoot the torch across from the platform to ignite the crystal, a moment showcased in the Kena: Bridge of Spirits final magical trailer, which raises platforms from the water. Players should follow the platforms until Kena reaches a small grove and the meditation point within.
While finding the secret areas and meditation points can be challenging, it's still a good idea to explore and immerse Kena in every place that is accessible. There are plenty of spots like these throughout Kena: Bridge of Spirits, so players should be sure to search for them to increase Kena's maximum health over time and unlock collectibles like Spirit Mail.
Kena: Bridge of Spirits is available on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and PC.
