[[File:Kelvin base health 1.png|thumb|263x263px|A healthbar on [[Kelvin]].]]

Max health is calculated as follows:

<math>\text{Max HP} = (\text{Base HP} + \text{Boons Earned} \times \text{HP per Boon}) \times (1 + \text{Vitality Bonuses}) + \text{Bonus HP}</math>

 

* '''Base HP''' is the hero's starting health value.

* '''Boons Earned''' is the number of [[Boons]] the hero has earned, multiplied by the hero's hero-specific HP gained per Boon.

* '''Vitality Bonuses''' are the percentage-based health increases from [[Vitality]] items, starting at 8% and increasing with further Vitality investment.

* '''Bonus HP''' is flat health added from items, map pickups, and other sources, applied after the Vitality multiplier.

 

Note that the max health presented in-game is rounded up to the nearest integer.

To see all [[Heroes]] health scaling by [[Boon]] please visit the [[Hero Comparison Table]].

* [[Golden Statue|Golden statues]] occasionally drop small but permanent added bonus health buffs: '''+{{MiscData|hp_permanent_pickup|Modifer|ScriptValues|1|value}}''' before 10 minutes, '''+{{MiscData|hp_permanent_pickup_lv2|Modifer|ScriptValues|1|value}}''' between 10 and 30 minutes, or '''+{{MiscData|hp_permanent_pickup_lv3|Modifer|ScriptValues|1|value}}''' after 30 minutes.

* The [[Powerup|Survival Powerup]] immediately grants '''+{{MiscData|survival_powerup_pickup|Modifer|ModifierValues|1|valueMin}}''' to '''+{{MiscData|survival_powerup_pickup|Modifer|ModifierValues|1|valueMax}}''' bonus health (scales as game goes on), but only for 160 seconds or until death.

[[Kelvin]] begins the game with 600 Base HP. If Kelvin purchases two tier 1 vitality items, one of which grants 100 bonus health, his max health becomes:

<math>\text{Max HP} = 600 \times (1 + 0.10 + 0.10) + 100 = 820</math>

<math>\text{Max HP} = (600 + 50) \times (1 + 0.10 + 0.10) + 100 = 880</math>

From the start of the match, heroes will regenerate health slowly over time, typically 2 HP per second. This rate can be increased by purchasing items such as {{ItemIcon|Extra Regen}} and {{ItemIcon|Fortitude}}. Health can be regained quickly by returning to the spawn room of the team's base. Various hero abilities can heal, such as {{HeroIcon|Dynamo}}'s {{AbilityIcon|Rejuvenating Aurora}}. Sources of [[Spirit Lifesteal|spirit]] and [[Bullet Lifesteal|bullet lifesteal]] grant heroes the opportunity to regain health by dealing the respective damage type.

 

=== Command Line Alternate health bar ===

There is another experimental health bar accessible to players. Inside the <code>gameinfo.gi</code> in the game's files, under the ConVars block, adding the 2 lines <code>"citadel_unit_status_use_v2" "true"</code> and <code>"citadel_unit_status_use_v2_for_nonplayers" "true"</code> applies this health bar. When at critical health, the 'critical' text will appear above the hero.  

The healthbar scales on the heroes maximum health, with 1 segment for every 1000 health points. A segment that does not represent 1000 health will be shorter than other segments. If a hero uses stamina bar, a stamina pool appears over their head, represented by dots. A filled dot is stamina the hero can use, and an empty dot is stamina that has to be regenerated.

 

If this health bar is enabled, the health bar given by <code>citadel_unit_status_use_new true will</code> be overridden.

All [[Vitality|vitality items]] provide bonus health based on the player's total investment in the category.
