At the beginning of your turn, you gain 1 health.
The healing occurs at the start of your turn, before any other actions can be taken.
The healing does not exceed the character’s maximum health limit.
Gaining health is mandatory and not optional while it is equipped.
Works Well with Self-Harming Abilities:
Characters such as Zhou Tai and Huang Gai, who rely on sacrificing health to trigger their abilities, can use the Green Vesicle Book to mitigate the costs of their actions.
Complements Defensive Characters:
Defensive characters like Cao Ren or Lu Meng benefit from the book's passive healing, allowing them to maintain their focus on supporting allies or enduring long battles.
Enhances Endurance Characters:
Characters with high health, such as Dong Zhuo, gain added resilience by consistently recovering from the damage they take.
The Green Vesicle Book is an excellent treasure for players who value consistent recovery and resilience. While it does not provide immediate or aggressive advantages, its passive healing effect allows characters to recover over time, making it a strong choice for endurance-based strategies. However, its lack of offensive or disruptive capabilities means it is most effective when paired with defensive or health-dependent characters.
The Green Vesicle Book references Hua Tuo's legendary medical expertise, symbolizing his unparalleled ability to restore health. In Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Hua Tuo's Green Vesicle Book was said to contain advanced medical techniques. He famously treated Guan Yu by scraping poison from his bones, demonstrating his surgical brilliance and courage.
Hua Tuo’s skills ultimately led to his downfall when Cao Cao summoned him to treat his persistent headaches. Hua Tuo proposed a radical procedure involving opening Cao Cao’s skull, but this suggestion sparked suspicion. Believing Hua Tuo intended to harm him, Cao Cao imprisoned and tortured him. Despite Jia Xu’s pleas to spare Hua Tuo, Cao Cao remained unconvinced, and the physician eventually died in prison.
Before his death, Hua Tuo entrusted his medical knowledge to a prison guard, Wu the Gaoler, who safeguarded the treatise. Tragically, most of the text was lost when Wu’s wife burned it out of fear. The story underscores the immense loss to the medical field and serves as a cautionary tale about mistrust and fear suppressing progress. The Green Vesicle Book embodies the enduring legacy of Hua Tuo’s healing art, granting steady recovery to those who wield it, much like his teachings might have done had they survived.
