The Flagellant also deals out the strongest Bleed damage of any hero, ranging from four to nine points of Bleed damage. They have three skills that inflict Bleed damage on opponents, two of which also reduce the foe's Bleed resistance, while the third is heals them. In fact, the Flagellant is incredibly effective when it comes to inflicting maximum Bleed damage. The Highwayman and the Flagellant each come with moves that reduce a foe's Bleed resistance, making it easier to pile on the pain. It's not very effective in places such as the Cove and the Ruins, but that's where Bleed debuffs come into play. Bleed stacks and can combine with Blight damage while bypassing Protection stats, making it crucial to felling some dangerous foes. While Bleed is annoying when used against you, when you use it against someone else, it is a different story.

Not only does she heal someone else's Bleed damage, but she can also heal herself at the same time if she's afflicted. Much like with Blight, your best bet for healing Bleed is the Plague Doctor's Battlefield Medicine. The Graverobber's Toxic Trickery heals Bleed as well, but it's only good for one use per battle. The Hellion's Adrenaline Rush clears both Bleed and Blight, while the Flagellant's Suffer transfers someone else's Bleed to himself. Where Bleed becomes a real problem is on the battlefield, but your heroes can save the day if you're inflicted in combat. The Arbalest can also cure Bleed with her camping skill Field Dressing, and the Plague Doctor and the Flagellant can heal themselves of Bleed damage as well.

Bandages can heal your afflicted hero at the start of their turn, and nearly every hero has the Wound Care camping skill. Cultists, Brigands and Ghouls roam all dungeons, and once you open the Crimson Courtyard, you'll have a chance to encounter Sycophants and Chevaliers, who also inflict massive Bleed damage as well as risking infecting your hero with the Crimson Curse.įortunately, you don't have to deal with Bleed damage for long if you get it. Places like the Warrens and the Crimson Courtyard are where you'll most likely encounter foes that can inflict this status effect, but you can encounter foes that can inflict Bleed anywhere. Bleed damage can be inflicted through traps or ill-investigated curios, although you'll most likely get Bleed damage from enemies.
