Surviving demanding lightsaber duels and boss encounters in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order depends heavily on Cal Kestis's healing capacity. Players begin their adventure with only two healing uses, making thorough exploration necessary to discover additional upgrade chests. Finding all eight hidden canisters across the galaxy increases your maximum healing charges to ten, drastically improving your combat endurance.
Understanding Stim Canisters on Bogano
Bogano serves as the starting world where players can secure two early-game healing upgrades. The first canister rests inside the Subterranean Refuge, accessible by taking a leap from the main landing pad area toward the left ledge. Players can drop into the circular chamber below to claim the yellow chest sitting on the platform.
The second upgrade on Bogano requires returning after learning the Force Push ability during later campaign missions. Located directly underneath the Mantis landing zone, players must solve a physics puzzle involving a sphere and a ramp. Successfully pushing the sphere into the designated socket opens the sealed gate guarding the canister.
Finding Upgrades Across Zeffo
Zeffo contains four distinct stim upgrades hidden within its massive subterranean caverns and Imperial facilities. Near the Derelict Hangar, players can enter a dark side cave near the initial Skazz encounter and navigate across a metal pipe. Another canister is found high within the Imperial Dig Site by utilizing ziplines and wall-running techniques to reach hidden ledges.
Reaching the third Zeffo upgrade requires navigating deep into the Ice Caves via an elevated Imperial line. The final canister on this planet sits within the Venator Wreckage, requiring advanced Force powers like double-jump and pull to access. Collecting these items ensures Cal remains well-prepared for tough combat challenges across the imperial occupied world.
Unlocking Hidden Stims on Kashyyyk
The wookiee homeworld of Kashyyyk holds two crucial healing upgrades tucked away inside its lush forest environments. The first canister appears in the Imperial Refinery area, where players must maneuver past dangerous machinery to discover a hidden alcove. Careful platforming along elevated pipes leads straight to the yellow crate containing the upgrade.
A second Kashyyyk canister sits deep within the Origin Lake region near the massive Great Tree. Players must utilize bouncy lung plants to launch Cal upward toward high vines along the cliff face. Navigating across the canopy platforms reveals the upgrade chest overlooking the scenic jungle view.
Reaching the Ancient Ruins of Dathomir
Dathomir contains a single stim upgrade hidden within its dangerous red cliffs and nightbrother settlements. Near the Nightmare Ruins, players must navigate around the entrance to the ancient tomb area. Climbing a massive wall covered in vines leads players directly to an elevated ledge where the yellow chest rests.
Securing this final upgrade completes Cal's healing progression, providing maximum durability for endgame encounters. Exploring every planet thoroughly allows players to overcome punishing combat encounters on higher difficulty settings.
