Abyssus Blood Blessings Guide

Aug 12

Blood Blessings in Abyssus focus on scaling damage with your health and inflicting Hemorrhage, a status effect that deals damage based on your max health. This aspect is best for tanky builds that can stay in the fight longer while dishing out heavy hits.

The Aspect of Blood causes you to deal Hemorrhage damage equal to a portion of your max health. Each additional Blood Blessing you pick increases your max health by 10, letting you hit harder while also becoming tougher.
