In 99 Nights in the Forest, bandages can be obtained in several ways:
- Medic Class: The easiest and most reliable method is to choose the Medic class, which instantly provides two bandages at the start of each run. Upgrading the Medic class to level 3 gives you an additional medkit. The Medic class can be purchased for 40 diamonds (about 199 Robux) and is ideal for solo or team play.
- Finding Bandages in Chests: Bandages are rare loot items found in hidden chests scattered throughout the map. These chests can be in inconspicuous places like tree stumps, water towers, tree houses, ruined structures, and sometimes partially buried. This method is RNG-heavy, meaning it depends heavily on luck.
- Exploring Clinics and Hospitals: Randomly spawning clinics and hospitals on the map may contain bandages and medkits inside cabinets and chests. Access to hospitals requires leveling up your campfire to level 5.
- Crafting Bandages: If you find and rebuild an anvil (found in a building that you may need to clear of enemies), you can craft bandages using 2 bunny feet and 2 wolf pelts. This crafting option offers a consistent way to get bandages without relying on drops.
In summary, the quickest guaranteed method is using the Medic class. Otherwise, explore the map thoroughly for chests, clinics, and hospitals, or craft bandages if you've unlocked the anvil and have the animal materials to craft them.
