Sekiro Shadows Die Twice Gourd Seed Locations
The Healing Gourd is your main source of healing in Sekiro. Like the Estus Flask in out From Software games, using the Healing Gourd will give you back some life upon activation. The amount of Healing Gourd you can carry can be upgraded using the Gourd Seed. This post will highlight the Gourd Seed locations in Sekiro.
What to do With a Gourd Seed?
Gourd Seeds are hidden throughout the world of Sekiro. When you collect a seed you may be wondering what to do with it. Well, Gourd Seeds can be returned to Emma the Physician at the Dilapidated Temple. When you give Emma a Gourd Seed she will increase the maximum amount of Healing Gourd you can carry.
