Medical Set

The Medical Set converts the typically negative disorder system into a regen engine — each disorder you carry adds +1 Health Regen per turn. Characters who accumulate many disorders (which is common in extended runs) can reach substantial regen rates, potentially outpacing incoming damage. Actively pairing this with disorder-inducing items or events turns a game burden into a powerful sustain mechanic.

Medical Set pieces use hospital and first-aid-themed gear across head, neck, and face slots. The 3-piece bonus grants +1 Health Regen per turn for each disorder the character currently has. Disorders are debilitating conditions that accumulate from certain enemy attacks, events, or environmental hazards. Rather than curing them, this set incentivizes keeping them — a character with 5 disorders and Medical Set active regens 5 HP per turn.

Medical Set is a long-run snowball set that improves the more chaotic your playthrough gets. Stack with the Guts Set's base +1 Health Regen for an even higher regen floor, and maximize Constitution with Fatty or Guts to increase effective HP. Deliberately seeking out events or encounters that apply disorders becomes a priority rather than something to avoid. Note that some disorders have severe mechanical downsides — prioritize disorders that penalize stats you don't use rather than core combat stats. The set is significantly stronger in later stages when disorders have accumulated naturally.
