Quick answer

Cupid's Bolt is a seasonal Valentine's Day crossbow ammunition item in DayZ. It behaves like a special variant of the standard Bolt, but instead of damaging players, it heals them on contact. When fired at a survivor, Cupid's Bolt creates a short-lived heart particle effect and restores the target to full health while removing diseases, cuts, blood regeneration, and fractures.
