West Wood Medallions
H-key accessories and the Participation Trophy badge.
Medallions are the H-key utility accessories referenced in the Medallions and Accessories overview, and they are tied to one of the badge milestones in the official Remake badge API. The Participation Trophy badge is awarded for buying a medallion from the dealer, and three purchase-style badges (shop item, dealer item, medallion purchase) sit alongside the risk and night-delivery badges on the 23-badge list. This page consolidates what is publicly known about medallion types and the order in which to acquire them.
What medallions do in-game
Medallions are activated with H on PC (or D-Pad Down on console). Community reports describe each medallion as a temporary utility boost — for example, a brief flash of invulnerability, a sprint-extension, a stamina restore, or a noise-reducing accessory. The exact effect per medallion type is not first-party published; treat each medallion as a temporary consumable rather than a permanent stat increase.
The H-key utility description is confirmed by the official game description and by the Controls hub. What H actually does each press is determined by which medallion you currently have equipped.
The Participation Trophy badge
The badge API confirms Participation Trophy as a medal-tier badge awarded for buying a medallion from the dealer. This is the simplest of the three shop-purchase badges:
- Buy any item from the General Store.
- Buy an item from the Soul Coins Dealer.
- Buy a medallion from the Soul Coins Dealer.
Each is a separate badge trigger, so a single shopping trip can earn all three if the player has the soul coin balance. Cross-link Shop Progression for the right order.
Known medallion types
The wiki counter list (west-wood-remake.fandom.com/wiki/Wendigo) places medallions alongside bear traps, flamethrowers, radars, copes, and coffees as part of the survival kit. Community trackers and Discord screenshots describe a small set of medallion types — for example, a flash medallion that blinds the creature briefly, a noise-reducing medallion that masks sprinting, a stamina medallion that gives a temporary boost, and a heat medallion that briefly hides the player’s thermal signature.
These types are community-tracked, not first-party published. Verify which medallion is currently in the dealer rotation before planning a badge run.
Acquisition order
For a fresh player who wants all three shop badges:
- Save 100 soul coins — the minimum for the first General Store visit. Cross-link Soul Coins.
- Open the General Store — buy any item (food, water, bandages, or a small utility). This earns the “Buy any item” badge.
- Save another 200–500 soul coins — the dealer requires more coin than the store.
- Visit the Soul Coins Dealer — buy a non-medallion item if rotation offers one, otherwise buy a medallion directly. This earns the “Buy from dealer” badge and the Participation Trophy badge together.
This sequence keeps the cost under 1000 soul coins total and earns three badges in two trips.
When to use a medallion
Save medallions for:
- A confirmed creature chase.
- A Blood Moon window where the Wendigo Jerry damage jumps to 40–50.
- A Night Delivery route where the carrier needs a temporary safety window.
Do not waste a medallion during daylight prep — the effects are short and most useful in night phases.
