Using Medicine / Healing in Assassin's Creed II (Xbox 360): Auto-Regen Only

You don't "use medicine" manually in Assassin's Creed II. Health regenerates automatically.

Health System

• Auto-regen: Health (sync bar) refills quickly when not in combat.
• No consumable items: No potions, bandages, or food in inventory.

Ways to Restore / Increase Health

• Collect Health Squares (Glyphs): 100 Glyphs (20 per Subject 16 cluster) → each cluster increases max health by 1 block. Total +5 blocks.
• Armor: Purchase better armor (Missaglias, Venetian, etc.) at shops — increases damage reduction, effectively more survivability.
• Dodge / Counter: B (Circle) to dodge; X (Square) to counter-kill. Avoiding damage > healing.
• Medicine? — Only in later games: AC Origins/Odyssey/Valhalla have healing items. AC2 does not.

If you're low on health mid-fight: disengage, break line of sight, wait 3–5 seconds. Sync bar refills.
