Health Item Types 
     
       There are several types of health items that can be collected to regain lost health or increase your maximum health points.  These are: 
      Stim Pack 
      First Aid 
      Medkit 
      Mega Health 
      Adrenaline 
       


    Stim Pack 
       
      Health Points per Pack 
      Maximum Health Points
                                                      2
      Unlimited
         The Stim Pack always provides a two point upgrade to your health point total. Often, Stim Packs are found in groups of three or more and should not be overlooked in deathmatch.  Collecting just one Stim Pack, for example, makes the difference between death and survival after being struck with a blast from the Railgun.

    First Aid 
       
      Health Points Per Box 
      Maximum Health Points 
                                                   10

         First Aid can be collected to recover lost health points.  First Aid will not be gathered when health points are already at their maximum.  Maximum Health can be increased by getting the Adrenaline.

      Maximum Health Points
                                                    25

    Mega Health 
       
      Health Points Per Item 
      Maximum Health Points
                                                  100
      250
         The Mega Health is one of the most useful items in Quake 2 Deathmatch.  Survival is the most important factor in deathmatch and collecting Mega Health at least doubles your chances of living through combat. 

         Each Mega Health item will add a whopping 100 points of health to your total up to a maximum of 250 health points.  Every second after you've grabbed the Mega Health, your health point total is diminished by one point until you've reached your regular maxium health value (usually 100 points). 

        Collecting Adrenaline and Stim Packs can increase the current health value your points will be dimished to as the Mega Health deteriorates.

    Adrenaline 
       
      Health Points Per Dose 
      Maximum Health Points
                                                  100
      Current Max +1
         The Adrenaline will always bring your health total back to its current maximum and permanently add one to your health point total.  

         In deathmatch, the Adrenaline is most useful when health is exremely low to bring you back up to your maximum value.

         In single play, it makes sense to always collect any Adrenaline you find to slowly increase your maximum health points.  There are enough Adrenaline packs in the single player game of Quake2 to bring your maximum health point total over 120 points by the end of the game.
