Bloody Knife

Bloody Knife is a very rare melee weapon that delivers rapid, precise cuts laced with blood, applying Bleed with each stab. A fast weapon for DEX builds who want to stack hemorrhagic damage quickly, it prioritizes speed over raw power.

Knife-type weapons typically attack quickly with lower individual damage, but the Bleed application per hit more than compensates. Repeated stabs from a high-DEX cat can stack Bleed to significant levels in just a few turns, with the DoT ticking away throughout the fight. The blood coating may also lower enemy defenses through the Bleed mechanic's resistance-reducing property.

Bloody Knife is the ideal weapon for assassin-style cats with high DEX who can land multiple hits per turn. It's the single-target specialist of the Bloody weapons family, best used to overwhelm a priority target with Bleed stacks while the rest of the team handles crowd control. Pair it with abilities that deal bonus damage to Bleeding enemies for a devastating execution combo.
