Bleed Damage

There are some vague or non-exact figures and information on this page. Some spading is required. Sugar shank, Ceramic Grate, Prince George costume, and Rave Bleeding haven't been confirmed to generate blood during Walford's quest and may need to be moved to "Misnomer Bleed Sources"

[ Return to Game Mechanics ]

Bleed damage is a special form of passive damage that can result from the use of certain combat items, familiars, weapons, and skills. These sources are listed in game with some variant of the enhancement "Causes bleeding".

Bleed damage recurs in subsequent rounds of combat after infliction, and is (usually) calculated by taking an initial physical damage source, and re-inflicting it throughout the combat with a variance of plus or minus two points. While similar to poison damage, bleed damage does not degrade after subsequent rounds.

Bleed damage is also used when harvesting blood for Walford.

Misnomer Bleed Sources

These sources have enhancements named "bleeding" but don't appear to do bleed damage. These items still apply passive damage, but that damage appears to be calculated independently from the initial damage source. More damning however, is that these sources also won't generate blood for Walford's bucket when tasked with getting Walford some blood.

Source	Source Type	Damage	Duration	Cost	Prereq	Notes
Hedgeturtle	Combat item	5-10	Always	Item Loss	None	Deals 30-60 Physical Damage
Brass gear	Combat item	15-20	Always	Item Loss	None	Deals 20-30 Physical Damage
Sawblade fragment	combat item	20-30 5-10 less on following rounds	Always	Item Loss	None	Deals 100-150 Physical Damage Using another fragment does not stack the bleeding, but instead resets X to 20-30
