How to upgrade Phantom Blade Zero medicine
Developing story first seen 3 hours ago
New guidance highlights that medicine upgrades become available around halfway through *Phantom Blade Zero*, while exploring Pangzhen, and advises players to choose upgrades carefully because they cannot be reversed. The system improves healing items and can increase their number of uses.
To unlock it, speak to Xie Xiaorong at the Green Serpent House counter in Pangzhen’s Backstreets; afterwards, upgrades are available through the “Upgrade Equipment” menu at any Bell. Each level costs Remnant Dust and one Healer’s Memory, with higher levels requiring more dust and rarer memories. Memories can be found throughout the game or bought in limited quantities at Bell shops, so saving some for a change of medicine may be useful.

Explained simply
Phantom Blade Zero is an action game in which players fight enemies and use medicine to restore health. As they progress, they can improve their medicine, including making it more effective or increasing how many times it can be used.
The upgrade system is tied to Xie Xiaorong, a character at the Green Serpent House in Pangzhen. Upgrades use Remnant Dust and Healer’s Memories, items found during play or sometimes available from Bell shops. Because an upgrade cannot be undone and the memories are limited, players may want to consider which medicine they use most before spending them.
