Megahealth

From QuakeWiki

In the Quake series, the Megahealth is a powerup that gives the user +100 health, regardless of what his current health is. However, the health will slowly rot away until the user's health is back to 100.

[edit] Strategies

The Megahealth is usually a hotly-contested item in multiplayer. When the match starts, try to get control of the area that has the Megahealth before your enemies do. If you can't, try to strike when there's still fighting. If there's no fighting when you get to it, but somebody is occupying it, don't try and take it unless you have a very powerful weapon and some armor. If you don't you'll usually get blown away before yo u can take off half of your target's HP.

The Megahealth is also a great companion with any type of armor, from Green Armor to Heavy Armor. If you have Megahealth and a powerful armor, you'll be able to survive many attacks, even when your armor runs out. Even with weak armor, you should be able to survive for quite a while if you combine it with a Megahealth.
