While active, killing an enemy with Blood Loss will cause a bloody explosion that deals Physical Attack damage to surrounding enemies. This damage is not based on your Weapon, but is partially based on their accumulated Blood Loss. The explosion destroys their Corpse if the enemy was Normal or Magic, and has a chance to Aggravate Bleeding.
