Bleed Attack is a special move that was added during the Age of Shadows expansion in early 2003.

Effects

Successful use of the special move inflicts 15-31 points of Direct Damage over 10 seconds, with the rate of damage slowing as time passes. This damage is not reduced by armor and can only be avoided through healing with spells or bandages. It grants a five-second effect reduction once removed. Attempts to reapply Bleed while the player is under this effect reduction will scale the duration based on the last successful Bleed Attack.

The attacker is healed for the same amount if the move was performed with a Blood Drinker weapon.
