Black Blood is a potion that turns the drinker's blood against vampires and necrophages. In this base tier, when one of them lands a wound, the blood injures it and returns 15% of the damage. One brew holds 3 charges, and each dose lasts 30 seconds.
Every hit they land costs them part of that damage, so the more often they strike, the more they hurt themselves.
Variants
Black Blood comes in Base, Enhanced and Superior variants. Each one is brewed from the tier below it.
