Overview
Hearty Fishball Soup is the Hearty (highest quality) tier of Fishball Soup, a recovery item in Crimson Desert. Hearty provisions require ten times the base ingredient quantity and provide the maximum stats for their recipe category.
Hearty Fishball Soup is the single most powerful healing item in Crimson Desert. At +700 HP, nothing else comes close to its raw health restoration. Combined with Ice Resistance Lv 4 for a full minute, it is the definitive food for late-game boss fights in ice-heavy regions. The five-ingredient recipe is expensive (16 Lentils, 4 Onions, 12 Fish Fillets, Salt, and Water), but the result is unmatched burst healing. Save these for the most demanding encounters in Chapter 7 and beyond.

Tips
At +700 HP, this is the strongest single-use healing item in the entire game.
Reserve Hearty Fishball Soup for the hardest boss fights. Use cheaper recovery items for routine exploration.
The Ice Resistance Lv 4 buff stacks well with ice-resistant armor for maximum cold protection.
Buy Lentils and Salt in bulk from merchants to reduce farming time.
If you need Fire Resistance instead of Ice, switch to Hearty Marinated Meat or Hearty Braised Ribs.
