Hyper Light Breaker: A Comprehensive Guide to All Seven Resources

Hyper Light Breaker features seven crucial resources vital for acquiring gear, unlocking permanent upgrades, enhancing survivability, and expanding your character roster. This guide clarifies how to obtain and utilize each resource effectively. Resources are conveniently stored in the inventory's "items" tab for easy tracking.

1. Bright Blood:

This common resource is earned by defeating enemies, destroying objects, and opening crates in the Overgrowth. Selling gear to vendors also yields Bright Blood. Its uses include:

• Looting Blades and Rails.
• Opening Stashes and crates.
• Purchasing gear from Overgrowth and Hub vendors.
• Upgrading gear at Hub vendors.

2. Gold Ration:

Acquired by completing Cycles (typically by using all four Rezes). After depleting your Rezes, an NPC at the Hub Telepad will require materials to reset the Overgrowth, progressing toward Gold Ration acquisition.

Gold Rations are key to meta-progression:

• Unlock permanent upgrades via Pherus Bit in the Hub.
• Access new vendor services in the Hub.

3. Abyss Stone:

Obtained by defeating Crowns (difficult bosses found via Overgrowth gates). Requires collecting Prisms beforehand (locations marked with yellow diamonds on the map).

Like Gold Rations, Abyss Stones are for meta-progression:

• Upgrade Sycom stats.
• Unlock new characters (during loadout confirmation before entering the Overgrowth).

4. Key:

Occasionally found in unmarked small containers within the Overgrowth. Keys are used to:

• Bypass barriers to access Stashes and other containers.
• Enter Labs (subterranean areas with enemies and loot).

5. MediGem:

Earned by interacting with glowing flowers in the Overgrowth. Crucial for obtaining Medkits:

• Exchanged for Medkits at the Hub Telepad and Overgrowth Shrines.
• Requires Medkit capacity expansion (using one Gold Ration at Pherus Bit).

6. Core:

A meta-progression resource, found in Stashes (marked with chest icons) or by combining four Core Shards. Shards are obtained by:

• Defeating Prism-rewarding enemies.
• Finding unmarked lootable objects (e.g., bone piles).

Cores are used to:

• Upgrade Sycom stats (during loadout confirmation).

7. Material:

Primarily earned by using Bright Blood to open gem-marked chests in the Overgrowth. Selling gear in the Hub also provides Materials. Used to:

• Purchase gear from Hub and Overgrowth vendors.

Mastering these resources is key to conquering Hyper Light Breaker. Happy hunting!
