The player's character in RuneScape Dragonwilds has a fixed health bar of 100 points and can become quite squishy when entering areas with higher-level enemies. One of the first armor sets available to craft, called "Apprentice Armor," grants an additional bar of armor, increasing defense a little. However, this bar can easily deplete after receiving damage, and the game does not explain how to refill it. Well, here are all the ways to replenish the armor bar in RuneScape Dragonwilds.

Use Wardstones to Refill Armor Bar in RuneScape Dragonwilds

One of the best ways to refill your armor bar is by using Small Wardstones that can be crafted using the Rune Altar in RuneScape Dragonwilds. These are extremely easy to craft and will instantly fill your complete armor bar within seconds. Here's how you can start crafting Wardstones in the game.

First, you'll need to make a Rune Altar inside your base. It's unlocked during the tutorial of RuneScape Dragonwilds, so you won't have to worry about finding its blueprints. Players will require 12 stones and four Rune Essence to build a Rune Altar. You can easily collect the broken stones lying on the ground or mine big boulders. On the other hand, Rune Essence can be obtained by mining the floating purple stones found all around the valley.

Once you've crafted a Rune Altar inside your base, you'll require one rock and five Rune Essence to craft a Small Wardstone. Once you progress through the game, you'll be able to craft more potent Wardstones that will restore additional armor HP.

Combine Ingredients & Meat to Make Meals That Restore Armor Bar

There's another way to replenish your armor bar, and it's through eating various meals. To make meals in RuneScape Dragonwilds, you'll need to build a Cooking Pot outside your base and combine meat and other commonly found ingredients like Cabbage or Redberries.

You'll craft various meals that will not only provide moderate sustenance but also restore one-third of your armor HP. Although it's not as effective as using a Wardstone, they're good as a backup to keep your armor HP up during fights when you run out of Wardstones. However, you shouldn't rely too much on armor HP as it will deplete even faster than your health.
