While Medikits naturally restore a good amount of wounds,increasing a characterMedicae skillcan further boost the effectiveness of the amount of wounds recovered.Increasing a character’s Medicae skill can alsogive them access to stronger Medikits later in the game,making it a great skill investment for a healing/support-type character.
