The most effective way to heal your character in Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodhunt is to drink the blood of humans, repeatedly feeding on mortals with the same type of blood will bestow your character buffs that are permanent. Don't shoot humans or let them see your true nature otherwise you will trigger the Bloodhunt and become visible on the map to all players for one minute, during which time you will be an easy target. Take a look at our Feeding Guide to find how to get permanent buffs for your character and how to get more Resonance Slots.
Scan your Surroundings

Doing this is extremely useful when you are searching for a particular blood resonance buff.
