Overview
Vitality I is a standard passive Abyss Core in Crimson Desert. The regeneration is continuous and provides a slow but steady health recovery over time.

While the 0.2 HP/sec rate is lower than Breath of Life I's 1 HP/sec, Vitality I may be acquired earlier in the game and serves the same basic purpose of reducing reliance on healing items during exploration. Over the course of a 5-minute dungeon run, it passively restores 60 HP, which can cover several light hits worth of damage.

How to Obtain
Purchased from Witch merchants. Commonly available from early vendors and found in basic supply chests.
Standard Abyss Cores like Vitality I can be acquired from Witches who serve as merchants at various camps and settlements across the world. Check with any Witch merchant when you visit a new area, as their inventory may include this core.
Usage and Strategy
Socket Vitality I into any compatible equipment piece (Armor) to gain its Health +0.2 every 1 sec bonus. The effect is always active as long as the core remains socketed and the equipment is worn.
Tips
Vitality I is a good starter healing core, but plan to upgrade to Breath of Life I when it becomes available for five times the regeneration rate.
Even the modest 0.2 HP/sec can keep you topped off between encounters during early-game exploration.
