This is a videogame mechanic where one or more stats can exceed their imposed limit for a limited time. Usually, Stat Meters can't be restored beyond the maximum. Obviously, it's useless if you heal yourself, pick a health item while having full HP (or close to it) or pick up mana/armor/shield charges while having full meter. But sometimes, certain restoration effects can push your stats over the top and fill your stat meters over the established caps. It may be represented by Multiple Life Bars. When this is applied to health, it's usually called overhealing, with shields overshielding, and so on. The obvious benefit of the mechanic is the ability to survive more harmful stuff as well as One Hit Kills and, in the case of Mana, being able to cast more powerful spells or not-so-powerful spells more times. Another added benefit, in certain genres, is to be able to use Full Health Bonus (or Full Mana/Armor/Shield) abilities, as you can take damage and the game will still register the respective meter as being "full". Either way, it allows you to avoid wasting resources if you're already close to full on the stat that's being restored. Typically, normal restoration methods won't work while you're at 120/100 mana, for example, and the excess may even decay over time back down to the normal cap. However, if the Stat Overflow is represented by a bonus meter, you're often able to refill it, but it disappears for good if it empties completely. Note that this mechanic only lets you bypass the normal cap on your stats. If the added health/armor/shield/mana becomes permanent, it's instead a Cap Raiser applied to that stat. For other cap changers, see Rare Candy and Heart Container. Contrast Surplus Damage Bonus, where the game has a mechanic when you kill enemies beyond "dead", and Maximum HP Reduction, a temporary decrease to your maximum health. Do NOT confuse with Body Armor as Hit Points, as that trope pertains the usage of a stat to protect another (in this case, armor/shields and health); this trope, on the other hand, is about overcharging a stat for a temporary period. Sprint Shoes is a subtrope where the overflow is temporarily applied to movement speed, while Quad Damage is another subtrope where the overflow is applied to output damage. |

ZeroRanger: In GREEN ORANGE / Normal mode, destroying enemies in quick succession will raise your Score Multiplier, up to a maximum of ×6.4. Once you unlock your fighter's mech form, you can use your mech form's attacks to "Overload" your multiplier, up to ×12.8 (which is no easy feat, since your mech can only use melee attacks). However, the multiplier timer lasts shorter while in Overload, and once it empties out, you drop back to ×6.4 and below. | |

Almost all games in the series (the only exception is Unreal II: The Awakening) feature a rare, usually well-hidden item that gives the player 100 hitpoints (called Super Health Pack on the first game, and Big Keg O'Health in the Tournament and Championship games), surpassing the standard cap of 100. The player, however, won't be able to pick up other healing items until their life meter drops below 100. | |

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom: Sleeping in a soft bed will not only revitalize you but also grant you one yellow heart above your normal red hearts. Once lost, you can no longer regain it. Certain "hearty" and "enduring" food items can temporarily grant a few extra hearts and stamina wheels respectively in addition to fully restoring the respective gauges. Mipha's Grace replenishes all your hearts and gives you up to five extra hearts once you run out of hearts. |

In Quake III: Arena (as well as Quake Live) and its Spiritual Successor OpenArena, health degenerates to 100 HP if it's over this value. Players already start with an instantly-degenerating 125 HP, and the Regeneration powerup heals up to 200 max at a rate of 5 HP per second; after the powerup expires, the excess health starts degenerating. | |

The Binding of Isaac: Soul Hearts have been around since the original flash release. They're blue hearts that you can pick up even at full red health, and they protect you from losing your deal chances upon getting hit. Introduced in Wrath of the Lamb, Eternal Hearts function similarly to soul hearts at first, appearing at the end of your health bar and giving you an extra hit. However, if you find a second eternal heart or protect it until the next floor, it will permanently turn into a red heart container. The Game Mod for Rebirth, Antibirth, adds "Immortal Hearts." They function identically to Soul Hearts but will regenerate at the end of the room if they don't get destroyed. Afterbirth+, the 2nd DLC expansion for Rebirth, eventually added Bone Hearts. They function similarly to soul hearts in that they appear at the end of your health bar and protect deal chances. The difference is that Bone Hearts also function as disposable heart containers, so they can be filled with red hearts. |

Pokémon GO: Having an inventory that's just under full doesn't prevent acquiring the normal number of items from a PokéStop, or from receiving items as weekly bonuses or research rewards. The new items just take up space beyond the nominal cap, and items obtained in other ways still treat the inventory as full, until the number of items falls below the cap once more. A completely full or overfull inventory still allows reward items but does prevent a PokéStop from spinning. | |

Warframe: All Warframes except for Nidus and Inaros can have overshields in addition to their regular shields, which will turn the shield bar from cyan to purple. There are a variety of ways to gain overshields, including companion precept mods like Shield Charger or Molecular Conversion as well as Warframe abilities like Hildryn's Pillage or Protea's Grenade Fan. All Warframes have a hard cap of 1200 overshields except for Harrow, whose passive is to double this cap, and Nidus and Inaros, who can't have shields at all under any circumstances. In a variant, the Health Conversion and Synth Fiber mods respectively grant armor to a Warframe or sentinel upon collecting health orbs. Enemies that have been Taken for Granite by Atlas will drop rubble when they die. Picking up the rubble will heal Atlas or give him a stacking armor buff if he's at full health. |

Dungeons & Dragons: Some spells and abilities can give a character "temporary hit points". These are layered on top of their regular HP and are always lost to damage before them, meaning that while the spell lasts (and while these temp. HP are unspent), the character effectively has more HP than their maximum. In the third edition, the duration of the temporary hit points is typically defined by the effect that grants them, while in 5e, they last until the character finishes a long rest. The Positive Energy Plane is a dangerous variant — non-native creatures recover 5 Hit Points for each round of exposure, which can cause them to exceed their normal maximum. However, each round they remain "overhealed", they risk exploding from energy buildup. The obscure ability "energy charge" allows a creature to bestow "positive levels" (the opposite of energy drain, which bestows negative levels). Each positive level grants a small stat boost and causes the target's Character Level to count as one higher. They can also be used to weaken or destroy undead in the same way that negative levels weaken or kill the living. In 5th Edition, Player Character ability scores are capped at 20. However, some magic items let the wearer exceed this cap while they're worn. For example, the various Belts of Giant Strength set the wearer's Strength score to a fixed number, starting at 21 for the Belt of Hill Giant Strength and going all the way up to 29 for the Belt of Storm Giant Strength, which is one point below the game's hard ability score cap of 30. The Belt of Dwarvenkind, meanwhile, simply grants a +2 to the wearer's Constitution score but also temporarily adds +2 to their maximum Constitution while worn. Player Characters with 20 levels in the Barbarian class also gain the Primal Champion feature which raises their cap in the Strength and Constitution scores by 4 while adding another 4 to both scores. |

Overwatch: Brigitte's ultimate, Rally, gives her and all of her allies temporary armor at a rate of 15/second, capping at 100. The armor is lost after 30 seconds. Doomfist's passive ability gives him 30 temporary shields each time he hits an enemy with an ability (or seventy-five if that ability is his ultimate). These temporary shields are capped at 150 and decay at a rate of 3/second. Lúcio's ultimate, Sound Barrier, gives him and all of his allies 750 temporary shields that decay over the course of 6 seconds. Sigma's Kinetic Grasp gives him temporary shields based on how much damage he absorbed with the ability, and the shields start to decay at a rate of 7/second three seconds after he gains them. Torbjörn's Overload gives him 100 armor that lasts for the duration of the ability, then is lost. Wrecking Ball's Adaptive Shield ability gives him 100 temporary shields, plus 100 for each enemy near him. This ability lasts for 7 seconds. |

Doom: The Soul Sphere adds 100% health on top of the player's current percentage: at 44% health + Soul Sphere = 144% health. The Mega Sphere, pushes both health and armor up to the fixed maximum values of 200%. The little blue water bottles add health by 1% increments that surpass 100% health. The little green helmets also gave a 1% bonus but won't exceed armor's normal maximum of 200% (unless playing v1.2 or earlier, where armor percentage was capped by integer overflow.) |

Destiny 2 has multiple examples from different sources: Certain Void fragments and abilities can cause a Void Overshield to form over the user, letting them withstand additional damage before it either is broken or the buff timer runs out. In particular, Sentinel Titans can alter their Barricade to provide a full overshield to themselves and nearby allies on cast, and staying near it while its up causes the overshield to slowly regenerate. Hunters with Gyrfalcon's Hauberk can abuse this with Invisibility and Volatile, blowing up enemies and constantly staying out of sight while charging overshields they and their allies can use by deploying their class ability. Warlock Rifts can slowly heal past full health to form an overshield, but it immediately fades if the person inside steps out. The Well of Radiance super used to do this for a long while, but got changed to instead just heal to full and apply damage resistance instead. |

Far Cry 3 was the first game in the series that allowed players to craft health-restoring syringes from local plants. The final version of these syringes fully restores Jason's health and gives him additional health bars up to a maximum of 10 despite his health normally maxing out at 6 bars. Later games, using the same engine and general gameplay loop, also incorporated this feature in one way or another. | |

Super Mario Bros.: Super Mario Galaxy and its sequel feature Life Mushrooms. When collected, they will increase Mario's HP to 6, wearing off once it drops back to 3 or less. They're typically uncommon, but some boss fights let you buy one for coins beforehand. Super Mario Odyssey's Life-Up Hearts function similarly, increasing your max HP to 6 until it drops back down to 3. They're uncommon in the field, but any Crazy Cap store will have them for sale. |

The Void Rains Upon Her Heart: Energy Zest lets you start each fight with a full Charged Attack gauge, and four bonus charges on top of that. The bonus charges are used first and can't regenerate. Reserve Health gives you health that regenerates during battles. If you don't need it, it'll remain in stock until you take damage, effectively giving you health beyond the limit of your health bar. However, note that the regeneration is not instant, so several hits in rapid succession or one particularly powerful blow can still kill you even if the total damage is less than the sum of your health and Reserve Health. |

Fate/Grand Order has Fou cards that can be obtained from the Friend Point Gacha or Da'Vinchi-Chan's shop that can permanently increase a Servant's Attack and HP stats. However, Attack Fou cards cannot alter class-based Attack modifiers. On the other hand, Max HP buffs can temporarily raise a Servant's HP above their normal caps in combat. | |

All games in the series sans Enemy Territory: Quake Wars and the single-player mode of Quake IV have the Stimpack and Megahealth items. Stimpacks add +5 HP, Megahealth adds a degenerating +100 HP and both items can overheal to a maximum of 200. | |

The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel II and IV, as well as The Legend of Heroes: Trails into Reverie, have the Lost Arts, powerful Arts (Magic from Technology) which use up all of the character's EP and can only be used once per battle, but provide powerful effects. One of these is Grail Thelas (Artemis' Tears in Cold Steel II), which overheals the whole party to 200% of their max HP. The description in Cold Steel II even states that "Moon Goddess' power allows recovery beyond the body's limits." | |

SINoALICE had a "Purification" system whereby, instead of waiting for your SP to fill up over time, you could manually refill it by playing a minigame. Purification easily gave you more than enough SP to go over the cap, and you could do it even if you were already at or above the cap. There was, however, a hard cap (about 3x of the visible soft cap) beyond which you couldn't earn any more SP, no matter what. | |

Team Fortress 2: The Medic can use his Medigun to heal other characters to 150% of their maximum HP. When the Medic stops using the Medigun, their health will slowly degenerate to its default max value over the course of 15 seconds. The Pyro's Powerjack can give overheal upon a successful kill. The Spy's Conniver's Kunai steals the enemy's health on a successful backstab, allowing the Spy to get up to 210 points of overhealing. In Mann vs Machine mode, Scout can gain overheal upon collecting credits. In Mann vs Machine mode, weapons can be upgraded to give the user health on kills, potentially overhealing depending on their HP. |

The Diablo series has some gear pieces that allow your character to increase one or more stats; the effect is lost when said piece is removed (either by replacement, selling or just dropping). This also has the side effect of freeing stat points for other stats. Higher stats also allow you to use better gear or (in the case of magic) learn more powerful spells or increase your spell levels beyond what your character can usually learn. | |

In Dota 2, movement speed for all units is capped at a fixed value, but Bloodseeker's Thirst ability removes this cap for himself. Thirst also grants Bloodseeker bonus movement speed based on how much HP enemy heroes are missing, which means he can potentially reach movement speeds much higher than the cap allows. | |

Quake: Quake has a megahealth which boosts health above 100, but slowly decays until it gets back to 100. This decay is specifically provided by the megahealth, not from being above the maximum. All games in the series sans Enemy Territory: Quake Wars and the single-player mode of Quake IV have the Stimpack and Megahealth items. Stimpacks add +5 HP, Megahealth adds a degenerating +100 HP and both items can overheal to a maximum of 200. Quake II Mission Pack: The Reckoning and the 2023 remastered edition's Call of the Machine expansion have the Trap item. It turns any monster or player into health cubes. It has the ability to turn the user themself into one. However, managed correctly, these cubes overheal past [[BeyondTheImpossible even the 200HP maximum cap, the health doesn't degenerate unlike the Megahealth (unless the Megahealth itself is picked up, in whose case it does degenerate until the maximum cap at that moment) and, since it counts as a weapon rather than an item, the user can carry several at the same time. In Quake III: Arena (as well as Quake Live) and its Spiritual Successor OpenArena, health degenerates to 100 HP if it's over this value. Players already start with an instantly-degenerating 125 HP, and the Regeneration powerup heals up to 200 max at a rate of 5 HP per second; after the powerup expires, the excess health starts degenerating. |

League of Legends: The Bloodthirster item used to grant lifesteal on-hit to the user. Any health gained that goes over the user's maximum health was converted into a shield up to 50-350 damage depending on level. The runes Lethal Tempo and Hail of Blades allows their users to go past the normal attack speed cap of 2.5 per second. Bel'vath's Death in Lavender passive inherently removes the attack speed cap for herself. Jinx can exceed the cap while she's affected by her passive Get Excited! Kennen's Lightning Rush ability also allows him to exceed the cap while it is active. |

Nexuiz and Xonotic's health doesn't really have a cap, so players could pick up plenty of health items and reach big HP numbers, at the catch that the bigger the number is, the faster the health degenerates to the default 100 HP after some seconds passed without picking up items or being attacked. The reverse is also true, as health regenerates if it's below 100 (but players will still be fragged the moment it reaches zero or less) and some seconds pass without picking up items or being attacked. | |

Unreal series: Almost all games in the series (the only exception is Unreal II: The Awakening) feature a rare, usually well-hidden item that gives the player 100 hitpoints (called Super Health Pack on the first game, and Big Keg O'Health in the Tournament and Championship games), surpassing the standard cap of 100. The player, however, won't be able to pick up other healing items until their life meter drops below 100. In the Tournament and Championship games, the Health Vials can also overheal at a rate of 5HP. |

Honkai: Star Rail: Patch 1.3 not only upped the cap of the amount of stamina that all players can hold, but it also added a system in which stamina is 'stored' when it regenerates over the cap (though at a slower rate) that can be redeemed at any time, up to a maximum of 2000, which is enough to fill up the stamina almost ten times over. | |
