Playing games with friends can significantly enhance the experience, but in *R.E.P.O.*, even the strongest teams can have a weak link due to the game's challenging monsters. Here's a detailed guide on how to revive teammates in *R.E.P.O.* after they've been taken down.
What To Do If a Teammate Dies in R.E.P.O.
In *R.E.P.O.*, you start each round with a full health bar at 100. You can lose health from monster attacks or even from using items like Human Grenades. To regain health, you can use Health Packs found at the Service Station, or teammates can share health by interacting with each other's health bars. This cooperative mechanic adds a unique layer to the gameplay, though that's a topic for another discussion.
Despite these health management options, the monsters in *R.E.P.O.* can sometimes overpower your squad, leading to the unfortunate demise of a teammate. When this happens, you have two main options: wait for the round to end or take immediate action. When a teammate dies, their head drops to the ground, which you can pick up. Keep an eye on where your ally falls or check the map, which marks the head's location with a small icon matching their character's color. However, retrieving the head is just the first step.
Where To Revive Teammates in R.E.P.O.
Once you have the head in your inventory, make your way to the extraction point. Place the head on the point, and if you've met the round's loot requirement (visible at the top right of your screen), your teammate will respawn with 1 HP. They can then enter the truck to gain additional health, ensuring they're not a liability to the squad. After that, it's back to business as usual. However, if you can't retrieve the head, there's another way to revive your teammates.
If you're unable to reach your squad member's head, starting a new round will also bring them back. This method is similar to *Call of Duty* Zombies, where dead players can return at the start of a new round. While this approach means you'll be at a disadvantage for the remainder of the current round, it can be beneficial, especially for newer players. It gives them a chance to observe and learn from more experienced teammates without being thrust into a difficult situation.
That's how you can revive teammates in *R.E.P.O.*. For more tips, check out what Energy Crystals do in the game and how to acquire more.
