Dirty — Bloodborne

Dirty — Blood gems, Bloodborne. Read the status buildup, then choose a target whose resistance allows it to trigger.

Dirty

What the number measures

The value adds poison buildup; it is neither a damage percentage nor an amount of HP removed per hit. The status must reach the target's resistance threshold to trigger.

Before dedicating slots to poison

  • Check resistance to the correct poison, slow or rapid, on the boss page for the selected context.
  • Immunity makes the setup useless against that target. High resistance may require too many hits to justify losing direct damage.
  • Compare buildup speed with the weapon and moves you actually use.

Gem effects and acquisition

Adds rapid poison buildup. The number is neither a damage percentage nor HP removed per hit.

Buildup must reach the target's resistance. Immunity prevents the status from triggering.

Buildup speed depends on the weapon, moves and target. Compare the triggered status without treating the value as a fixed number of hits.
