Quick Answer

Gourd upgrades affect uses, drinks shape recovery and bonus effects, and soaks fine-tune the build. If a boss walls you, check whether your healing setup answers the way you are dying.

Setup Logic

Death pattern	Adjustment
Always one heal short	Prioritize recovery and safety
Status pressure hurts	Consider resistance or pressure relief
Damage windows are tiny	Use effects that support burst or consistency
You get hit while drinking	Practice safer healing windows first

Beginner Advice

Stage	Approach
First route	Use stable recovery
Boss wall	Change soaks based on death pattern
Secret bosses	Try safety first, then damage
NG+	Optimize more aggressive combinations
