Used items

Is there a reason to hang onto stuff like medkits and toolkits after they're used? I mean you get to take them with you if you escape but can you 'refill' or something during the game?

  • The Felix Ricther perk Built to Last will grant 50% of the items charges after it's used. That's the only way to refill.

  • Until about a year ago items would disappear when you used all their charges. Players would just use 99% of their item's charges so they could keep it. The devs changed items to their current state to make them easier to keep.

    Other than Felix's perk there's no way to recharge items, and this is for the best. Items are supposed to be a finite resource. If you could use the same toolbox on all 5 gens or heal 6 times with a medkit it would throw off the game's balance.

  • You can refill them with a perk - as NomiNomad has said. And of course it can be worth hanging onto the item to use in the next game - it depends on the item, I wouldn't bother keeping a brown toolbox for example, but I'd definitely hang on to a purple medkit.
