• "Nyssra the archer says to you, 'Hey! If you're heading out into the badlands, make sure you're healed up first! A good place to rest or sleep is by a fire like this one! Sleeping by a nice warm fire will keep you feeling sharp and ready for anything! Also, look out for potions you can drink and food. A lot of potions have healing effects, and food will help restore your health and stamina. Take this potion and drink it if your health gets low!'"
• "FYI: The warmth of the fire will help you recover more quickly from battle. Resting or sleeping near fires will give you a boost to regeneration. If you sleep long enough, you will become sharp. While sharp, your base regeneration is boosted, and you will gain slightly more experience, in addition to other benefits. You do not need a fire to become sharp, but one will help you become sharp more quickly."

It will give you information about their resistances and vulnerabilities. There are also help pages for damage types and creature types, see 'help creature type' and 'help basic damage' for more information.
