Herbs - all possible combinations and their effects

Unlike it's predecessors, Resident Evil 5 only features two types of healing herb - the ever-present Red and Green herbs. The Yellow herbs from Resident Evil 4 have been removed, and both Chris and Sheva start out with their health bars maxed out. The chart below lists all possible combinations and the effects of herbs when used:

Green - Restores a small amount of health

Green + Green - Restores a large amount of health

Green + Green + Green - Fully restores health

Red - Cannot be used alone

Green + Red - Fully restores health

Note - White Chicken Eggs restore a small amount of health, Brown Chicken Eggs restore a large amount of health and Gold Chicken Eggs fully restore health. Also, First Aid Sprays fully restore health.


If you are playing a character (SHEVA) in 6-3

If you are playing SHEVA and running with Christ... You won't worry about keeping Hold button or you won't go to broken bridge (when she falls down)... Let Wesker jump to another land and see his LONG arm as his weapon)... When He will tell you shoot him from back and choose Rocket Launcher and then shoot on the floor (when he was walking and smashing blindly to your partner) then game ends...

Good luck
