Beyond just unlocking new skills that can further expand Eve's combos and capabilities, a key upgrade is to increase her maximum health, leaving more room for error and, hopefully, a chance to turn the tables. For players seeking out the way how to increase Eve's max health in Stellar Blade, read on.
Increasing Eve's Max Health in Stellar Blade
When it comes to Eve's health, as well as her Beta energy capacity, it is not a straightforward affair like defeating more enemies to gain more SP and level her up that way in Stellar Blade. Instead, players will have to be more adventurous and keep a keen eye out while exploring the different areas on Earth in order to upgrade their ability to take more damage.
The core item that needs to be found is Body Cores, which can only be obtained from fallen Airborne Squad members who have come before Eve. They are recognizable by their skin-tight white outfits, similar to what Eve would wear as her default costume. Often hidden away in secret paths or easy-to-miss areas, be sure to make full use of the drone's scanning ability every time you are in a new area so as not to miss out on finding one of the bodies.
Depending on the location, players interacting with a fallen Angel will obtain either a Body or Beta Core. By collecting sets of three of such cores, only then will Eve be able to increase her maximum health or Beta energy capacity. Needless to say, it is imperative that players seek out the cores as soon as they can so that the fight against the Naytiba can be made a little easier.
The first Body Core players will likely encounter on Eidos 7 will be in the parking complex, just behind the first flight of stairs heading up to the camp. The next will be in a shop after defeating the Corruptor, and the third can be found in the sewers. Just keep scanning, and it will be hard to miss. The game has more Body Cores to be found than is needed to max out Eve's health, so even if you miss one or two, you will still be on track.
