I think bleeds are a little unfair....

Why should a Nobushi, or a PK have bleed attacks and others, not?

I'm pretty sure the raiders axe smashing you, or a Wardens sword for example would cause significant bleeding.....

Why doesn't every character have a bleed?

They should either all have bleeds, or none should have bleeds outside of feats, and everyone should have it as an option.

Getting a bit fed up with PK and Nobushi applying a bleed and running away.... then doing their best to repeat it, over and over.

What you guys think?

All, none... or feat only?

EDIT... I forgot to add an option for " its fine as it is"

Using realism isn't exactly a good argument.

Also your poll is skewed beyond all usefulness.

Bleeds are balanced ...

... But only, because I main warden.

How so?

Going this thought we can say that each class should have everything that other classes have. Like for example - why only Orochi, PK and Valkyrie should have deflect?
Your idea just makes no sense. Bleed is unique to Nobushi, PK and a little to Valkyrie - yes she does bleeding attack too although it's not as easy to pull off.

Given that you've not put in an option for 'as is' it is not an entirely fair poll as answering it at all means we agree it should be taken away from the characters that have it. The premise of all would cause cuts, or cuts to that level, is also somewhat inaccurate. If you look at the people who have bleed, and you can include the Valkyrie's limited option in this, the surface area of the weapon that causes it is much smaller at the point that it hits, the dagger and the naginata, rather than being slashing weapons, are piercing weapons and rather than a long shallow cut would do a smaller deeper one. Getting away from the 'realism' aspect, you also have this, if you don't give them bleed, you are going to see a lot more spammy peacekeepers and nobushi as this becomes their only option. On the pc it will cripple those characters, on the console it will be a nightmare for everyone else.

Valk has deflect?

You mean Zerker?

Nope, Valk, it is just rarely used because trip spam, and it is harder than peacekeeper's.

It's an interesting mechanic, and I have a feeling that we will
Be seeing more of it with the DLC characters.

Very biased poll, you are only giving options that support your opinion, one side of the argument.

As someone with a PK, a Nobushi and a Warden, all at a decent Rep level, I couldn't care less that the Warden doesn't have bleed and the other two do. Each character has strengths and weaknesses. My PK can't turtle behind a shield like Warlord and Conqueror ... there are pros and cons to everything.
