I platinumed DS3 while the servers were down so clearly I have some tolerance for pointless grinding but this is one item in a FromSoft game where I'm just like "No, I have better things to do with my life"
Kinda reminds me of that healing touch spell from Demon's Souls - the one that completely sucked ***. The healing spell on this sucks ***, too, but at least you can beat people to death with this one.
considering that Bloodborne and the vanilla version of DS2 were being developed at the same time by different teams, probably not. one of the devs for the DS2 DLCs might have seen the Blades of Mercy at some point and been inspired to make an homage, though
Would infusing this with bleed stone be a good idea? I’ve heard that bleed damage scales with Faith and Dexterity, and I’m thinking of making a Dex-Faith build soon.
bleed damage does not scale in ds2, it is always a flat 200. the bleed BNS stat only effects how much bleed *buildup* your bleed attacks inflict, letting you inflict bleeding quicker and thus more often
