Seed of Life is an equipment in Risk of Rain 2, added in the Seekers of the Storm expansion.

Seed of Life can be actively used when there is at least one dead teammate to revive any dead players. Alternatively, it is automatically used when the player killed holds this equipment but only to revive themselves.

When used it transforms into its consumed form, which can be used to spawn a sprout on any surface the player is aiming at. The sprout spawns 10 healing orbs in 5 seconds, each healing for 2% of max health.

Tips[]

  • While an Equipment Drone can use this equipment to revive the player, it can be rather inconsistent on single player. When the player dies, it takes one more frame before the game over is registered. If the Equipment Drone is currently within 45m of a monster and is looking at it, it may activate the equipment and prevent the game over. As such, it is better if the player holds onto the equipment, which guarantees a successful revival.
    • On the other hand, the consumed version of this equipment can be quite useful as a healing source since the drone will continuously cast it every couple of seconds.

Lore[]

Thick evening mist wraps the Queen like a sentient cloak. "Children, tonight we show these wretched demons our grief. Fight and fall and fight again. Take his [blessing] and go.”
A stream of Beetles march up the dead tree’s hollow. A Beetle Guard stops to face an alcove and it’s units pause behind him, antennae twitching. The Guard crosses it’s front legs above it’s head, "Deathless are we.", it sticks a pronged seed to it’s underbelly.
On the surface, Beetles pour from lifeless stumps in neat lines. A thousand forms shrink into the Eastern horizon in a golden thread.

Version History[]

Patch v1.3.6
  • Now works as expected when given to an equipment drone, and the consumed version can no longer teleport players out of bounds.
Seekers of the Storm
  • Added New Items: Seed of Life, Seed of Life (Consumed)

Trivia[]

  • There is an unused buff called HealAndReviveRegenBuff which increases regen by 50%. The most likely point the buff was supposed to have been used is when activating Seed of Life. If this buff were to have been given to any currently alive players, it would have had some benefit both for dead and alive players, while if it were to have been given to any revived players, it would have benefited them in Eclipse due the decreased starting health.
