Heart

Hearts (or Candy Apples during Halloween and Candy Canes during Christmas) are common powerups that can be dropped by slain enemies (8.3% if you are below max health), broken pots, or as a bonus drop from Slimes. It is not an inventory item, but is instead instantly consumed and restores 20 Health. Enemies will only drop Hearts if the closest player is not at maximum health. Boss enemies will drop several Hearts after being defeated. They are easy to find as they emit a faint red light.

It is also possible to spawn Hearts with a Heart Statue.

They can be collected within range of 2 blocks, which can be increased with Heartreach Potion.

Trivia

 * Although Hearts are instantly consumed on pickup, it is possible to hack in Hearts into your inventory through the use of editors. The hacked-in hearts still act like normal hearts, and will still be consumed on pickup, after dropping them in front of you.
