Pathologic 3 Prototype Refill Guide
The Prototype is an essential tool that guarantees Daniil’s safety in dangerous locations. This gadget clears plague tornadoes and stuns menacing creatures, such as Shabnak. It’s a reliable tool, as long as you keep it charged at all times.
How to Recharge the Prototype
The Pathologic 3 Prototype Refill depends on three resource categories: Stimulants, Anaesthetics, and Toxins. The early game provides you with Ox Bile as a Stimulant, Novocaine as an Anaesthetic, and Belladonna as a Toxin. These are the most commonly used resources to recharge the Prototype in Pathologic 3.

You will come across a variety of resources when exploring, however, the only reliable way of obtaining it is to buy them from Khorkhoy. You unlock the merchant on Day 3. Interact with the odongh outside Stillwater. He will move into the room with the Prototype recharge machine. You can always find him in the same room. Khorkhoy’s stock refreshes on a daily basis, so you will have a steady supply of Pathologic 3 Prototype Refill resources.

To recharge the Prototype, go to Stillwater and enter the room with the desks on the ground floor. That’s where you can find the recharge device. Make sure to use Concentration Mode if you are having troubles spotting the machine. Refresh the Prototype each time you are in Stillwater. The device in Stillwater is the only way to recharge the Prototype, you cannot recharge in any other location. Don’t forget that a full Prototype has 20 charges. Do not waste these charges unless necessary.

Each time you consume a charge, a notification tells you how many you have left. A full Prototype is generally enough for short tasks or exploration. When you are adventuring into infested districts or working on complex story-driven missions, you might have to recharge two or three times.
