Hemopumps increase the amount of Hemogen a [[Genes#Hemogenic|Hemogenic]] pawn can store, allowing more uses of their [[Genes#Hemogen|abilities]] before needing to [[Genes#Bloodfeeder|bloodfeed]] or consume a [[hemogen pack]]. Most of these abilities are related to combat.

How useful this is will depend on playstyle, but the boost is modest either way. Getting a few more uses of abilities like Coagulate may be useful, but pawns already have a high capacity for Hemogen. The starting capacity is 100, and the most expensive ability is only 20 Hemogen, so a pawn must be using 80 Hemogen between refills to warrant using hemopumps. Usually, [[glucosoid pump|increasing move speed]] or [[deathrest accelerator|decreasing deathrest time]] are stronger buffs and thus the priority. Once those options at capacity, then an extra coagulate or five extra longjumps can be a useful addition, allowing sanguophages to rapidly traverse even large maps with long jump and still have sufficient hemogen to expend at the destination.

The starting capacity is 100, and the most expensive ability is only 20 Hemogen, so a pawn must be using 80 Hemogen between refills. Even if you are using 80 Hemogen (e.g. 4 Coagulates in a row), each hemopump only adds a few uses of Longjump, or 1 use of the other abilities.
  
 
Hemopumps are one of [[hemogen amplifier|two]] deathrest buildings without a connection cap. If a pawn has a high building capacity, and the other buildings have reached their maximum, you might as well use one. It has a small niche for long [[caravan]]s, extending the time where [[conceited noble]]{{RoyaltyIcon}} pawns with [[Genes#Hemogen drain|Hemogen Drain]] can last without bloodfeeding or facing penalties from eating [[hemogen pack]]s.
