How many health pack do you have?

Hello,

I'm curious to see if anyone saves health packs or if you use them as soon as you get them. When I first started I only played prologue and never did any PVP or PVE so I had a bunch saved up. Also in the beginning I never wanted to use them unless absolutely necessary as I didn't realize they refreshed. I had almost 200 saved up at one point and still have 75 stocked up. So please share how many you have, thanks!

    Im a hoarder by nature, and have gotten upwards of 40 at one point, but realized that saving them was just kind of dumb. Its been effort, but Ive talked myself into using them earlier than I might to heal up chars that arent even down. Now I typically range between 3 and 8.
  • It makes no sense to hoard as you are wasting "free" Health packs that refresh if you have less than 5...

    Yup, I had over 200 until I learned they regenerate under 5, I've rarely been above 5 since
  • I topped out at ~48, wasn't hoarding, just never needed it. Then I think it was the first Thick as Thieves PVE came out and there went my health packs. I think that was the one when scaling first got insane. Now I just have my 5. Still haven't bought any health packs though.

    An unexpected thing has started happening to me now. Something I didn't really plan for, I now play less. A lot less. Even when I do have the health packs to restore a character. I think it's because I choose to no longer be naive... I know how these guys do business and our voices and thoughts are not taken into consideration. At all. Kinda like that feeling you get before a break-up.
  • When prolouge was allowed, I rarely used health packs. Only doing so say if there was less then 10 minutes in an event when I died off. If there was ample time, i'd just heal in prolouge. As to date I currently have 177 health packs. I blew thru 5 in Juggernaut Heroic event but today's daily reward was, can you guess?, 3x health packs. Of course with recent changes I plan to use a whole lot more of them.
  • 16 currently, usually between 13-18. I used them only in the last pushes of events even there just compensating accidents. There was a period when my last pvp push obligatorily started with full wipe on some weak team (and I mean start, right the first game).

    I used prologue heal extensively, and it was not really grind but a different minigame (keep Venom alive collecting enough Y+U). And it took negligible time on the few weeks I got SM to 5 blue from 3 -- then the nerf forced me to a not-fun 3goon node and cut effectiveness to third/run while game time increased...

    My minigame consisted of collecting enough purple for mnmags to quickly stock up blue and clear countdown tiles for the maximum heal. The only time this minigame wasn't particularly fun was when I couldn't get enough purple or blue and/or took more damage from countdowns than I could heal. This happened so rarely that it was a non-issue.

    Now, I have no reason to ever use mnmags or obw. Feels like a terrible waste since I just finished my second obw a few days ago...

    As someone else commented, it feels just like I'm in the process of a breakup. Just a short matter of time.
