Health is a value determining the hit points of a dwarf, creature or amount restored/lost.
There's currently three hit point types:
- Health - main hit points of a dwarf or creature, once this is depleted the dwarf will be incapacitated or the creature killed.
- Shield - protective hit points for the dwarves which can fully regenerate passively, shield protects health points until depleted.
- Armor - protective hit points for creatures which ignore any bonus weak point damage, armor protects health points until depleted.
Dwarves
Each class currently shares the same health and shield count.

Note: Each level of armor mastery adds 5 . Health added by armor mastery isn’t affected by Red Rock Blaster.
The Healthy upgrade adds 20 . Health added by Healthy isn’t affected by Red Rock Blaster.
Incapacitation
Once a dwarf's health reaches zero, they will become incapacitated.
Incapacitated dwarves are unable to move or use any of their equipment. They will remain in the same location they were originally incapacitated. An incapacitated dwarf must be rescued by either a teammate or Bosco depending on the mode they are playing. When playing in a team of players, the game will end immediately after all the players have been incapacitated. If a player has the Iron Will perk, then a ten-second grace period is granted after all dwarves have been knocked out, offering the player a final opportunity to activate the perk.
To revive an incapacitated teammate, a player must walk up to them and hold the Activate button. After a short duration (six seconds without changes from perks), the incapacitated dwarf will be revived with a fraction of their overall health pool, with the percentage depending on the hazard level. The revive can only be interrupted by the savior becoming incapacitated themselves, or being forced away from the downed player.
Downed players can press the Shout button to call for help. They can also view their teammates in a third person perspective.
Creatures
Creatures have their own individual hit points, although their damage resistance may change depending on the Hazard Level. Below creature base health values will be displayed with no damage resistances applied.
Healing Sources
There's a few ways the dwarves can restore any of their missing health and/or shield.
| Method | Health | Shield |
|---|---|---|
Mining Red Sugar 
|
+1-60 | - |
| Claiming a Resupply Rack from a Resupply Pod | +50% | - |
| Claiming a Resupply Rack from a Resupply Pod, with the Resupplier Perk | +60-75% | - |
| Inside a Shield Generator's bubble | - | +10/s |
| Mining Red Sugar with Sweet Tooth perk equipped | +1-72 | - |
| Melee killing a medium-sized creature with Vampire perk equipped | +2-5 | - |
Regenerative
These are meant to regenerate a certain amount of missing health or shield passively (or upon revival).
Note that the Equipment Terminal erroneously shows Shield Regeneration delays that are 1.5s longer than the actual values; the actual values are shown in the table.
| Upon | Effect |
|---|---|
| Dropping below 15% health, then avoiding damage for 10 seconds | Health regenerates at a rate of 1 health every 0.5 seconds, up to 15% of maximum health when the hazard level is below 5 (1-4). It regenerates up to 10% of maximum health when the hazard level is 5. |
| Receiving damage, then avoiding damage for 5.5 seconds. (4.5s with Improved Generator / 7.5s with Boosted Converter) |
The player regenerates 3 shield per second (6 shield with Boosted Converter). |
| Being revived by another player | Health is restored to 60 / 50 / 40 / 20 / 10 % of maximum for Hazard 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5, respectively. |
| Being revived by Bosco | Health is restored to 40% of maximum regardless of Hazard Level. |
