Bleed Rounds adds independently stacking bleed to direct weapon hits.

Status: Current. Availability: Source-defined; acquisition is build-dependent.

Evidence: statically inspected repository definitions. No new automated gameplay, Editor, network or human acceptance is claimed. See the evidence guide.

Identity: core:9 · Aliases: Serrated Payload, SerratedPayload

Behaviour and interactions

Each accepted weapon trigger/target adds 15% + 5% × (rank − 1) of direct damage as bleed over 3 seconds. Pellets are aggregated per target/trigger. Bleed remains owned secondary damage and does not recursively launch offensive procs. Enables Bleed Burst.

Tier: Uncommon · Categories: Weapons

Restriction: One contribution per accepted trigger/target; contributions add; no offensive chains.

Rank scaling from source

n = rank, q = rank − 1, l = log2(1 + rank), h = log2(rank), for rank ≥ 1. The excerpt below is copied as text, not executed. Primary/secondary meaning is defined in the resolver description and behaviour notes.

v.Primary=.15+.05*q;v.Duration=3;break; // direct shot fraction

Acquisition ranks have no authored balance cap; integer/float representation and bounded runtime effect rules still apply. Spare Charge is ranked per selected normal active. Run upgrades survive stage travel and downing, and clear at final run end.
