Recover and help a downed player
Recover after being downed
Your character lies downed until the recovery counter ends, then gets back up automatically.
First Aid changes the wait and the health you return with:
| First Aid | Recovery time | Health on recovery |
|---|---|---|
| Not trained | 10 seconds | 25 |
| Rank 1 | 5 seconds | 50 |
| Rank 2 | 3 seconds | 75 |
| Rank 3 | 3 seconds | 100 |
Help a downed player
You need First Aid 2 or 3, and you must be alive and on your feet.
- Move within 100 units of the downed player.
- Aim at them.
- Press your Use key.
They start getting up immediately. First Aid 2 leaves their normal recovery health unchanged.
First Aid 3 raises it to at least 75, but never lowers a better recovery they already have.
Things to note
- You get 3 seconds of protection after standing. Combat can reduce you to one health during this time, but cannot kill or put you down again.
- One player can help each time you go down. Further attempts do nothing after the first assist.
