Blades Of Fire: Health Gem Locations & Interactive Tracking Guide

Eighty green gems stand between Aran de Lira and his maximum health bar. Health Gems are the only way to permanently expand the Aegis of Life — collect 4, and the medallion consumes them, adding a permanent segment to the health bar.


With 80 Health Gems hidden across every region from Besacarr Hamlet to The Royal Palace, the hunt spans the entire campaign. All 80 are included on our Blades of Fire interactive regional maps.


Health can be restored at any point by resting at a Forger's Anvil, but the Aegis of Life only grows through gems — no other mechanic raises the maximum.


4 Gems Per Health Bar Increase


The Aegis of Life holds up to four slots. Each Health Gem collected fills one slot; once all four are filled, the gems are automatically consumed, and the health bar expands permanently.


This is entirely separate from Stamina Gems, which feed the parallel Aegis of Stamina via the same four-gem mechanic.


Prioritise Aecides' Domain Early


Collecting Health Gems throughout the first Domain — Doyen Graves and The Crimson Fort are the richest early regions — before advancing into Tok's Kingdom is the most reliable way to survive its bosses.


Thalmudak and several other Tok's Kingdom encounters deal enough damage to one-shot a base-level health bar, making the early gem sweep essential rather than optional on harder difficulties.


One Gem Requires NPC Dialogue


Most Health Gems sit in chests or require environmental navigation — but one in Winter's Wall is obtained purely by speaking to a villager inside a house and exhausting all available dialogue options.


No chest, no platforming, no combat. This is consistently the last gem players realise they've missed, since nothing in the environment signals its presence.


Rune-Gated Gems


Several gems only become accessible after obtaining specific Runes — the Light Rune gates four separate gems in The Iron Castle alone, and additional ones in Kar-Lethel Swamp, Northern Hiss City, and The Roggs Mountains.


Rather than backtracking immediately, marking these on the map and returning after the Rune is unlocked later in the story is more efficient than waiting in those areas.


Nothing Is Permanently Missable


Every Health Gem in the game remains collectible after the credits roll.


Activating the Forger's Totem in each region post-story reveals any missing gems as Silver Secret markers on the map — making the post-game cleanup straightforward even without a note of which specific gems were skipped during the campaign.
