Synergies
- Best paired with other bleeding items and abilities such as
Throwing Knife or 
Open Wounds, which can help stack bleed effects more quickly for more bleed explosions. - Works well with the weapon
Sadist's Stiletto, enabling the player to attack once with Blood Sword to inflict bleeding for the long duration of 12s, allowing Sadist's Stiletto to crit. - It pairs well with the "+60% damage to a bleeding target" affix on another weapon due to its long effect duration.
Notes
- Affixes such as "+80% damage on poisoned targets" apply to the weapon's attacks as well as the inflicted bleed status.
- This weapon deals less damage than the
Rusty Sword, and has an unusual two-swing combo, but is effective at stacking bleed on enemies. This weapon thus benefits from skills that carry the bleed damage affix. - It pairs well with the "+60% damage to a bleeding target" affix on another weapon.
