Getting to each location in Death Stranding is going to come with individual and unique challenges. Sam not only has to worry about the awkward terrain he's navigating in, but also a handful of enemies. Getting away from them and protecting his cargo is his top priority. Running for so long is going to wreak havoc on his body and he's going to have to stop. It could also lose its stamina and players will want to bring it back to its full charge. Here's how to restore your stamina.
How to restore stamina in Death Stranding
The immediate restoration of endurance is all about being a little patient. Sam will gradually regain his stamina during a trip by taking a few seconds to rest and staying still. You'll see him there, take a few breaths and adjust the gear he's carrying, and then he'll be good to go. But that's to immediately restore your current stamina, not to bring back whatever you've lost pushing Sam to his limits. You can press the "Square" button while you are resting to have Sam start massaging her body and stretching, increasing her rate of rise.
When you trade in the water and are on the verge of losing your stamina bar, hold onto to restore it. To make sure you don't lose your current balance, hold the L2 and R2 buttons on hold.
Another faster way to restore some of your lost stamina is to drink at your canteen. It contains Monster Energy Drink, and it will quickly push the reader back up, much faster than he would expect. You can drink in your canteen by clicking on the left arrow on the directional pad to take a quick wank.
For those who push Sam during his deliveries, you'll need to reward your hard worker with some much-needed sleep. Players will know if Sam is exhausted by the small white outline at the start of the bar, preventing blue stamina from fully returning. The best way to restore Sam's lost stamina is to let him rest in his private room. You don't have to go back to Sam's private room, but you do have to go to a fulfillment center where Sam can rest completely.
These are the fastest and best ways for Sam to regain his stamina during a Death Stranding delivery. Good luck getting packages to your customers and be sure to watch your blue gauge. You don't want Sam to be breathless running away from his enemies, otherwise you and your cargo could pay the ultimate price.
