Toxic Bullets is a Tier 3 Weapon Item that grants Bonus Health. Its passive causes bullets fired to build up a Bleed on enemies, and applies Healing Reduction to the target.

It can be purchased from the Shop for 3,000 Souls.

Buildup Per Shot

The item has a different buildup per shot depending on which hero purchased the item. The bleed only triggers on an enemy once the buildup reaches 100%, and the buildup decays back to 0 if the enemy hasn't been shot for some time. Subsequent shots on a bleeding enemy (bullets or melee) refreshes the duration of the bleed.

Notes

The % Buildup per shot is different per Hero. For example Abrams has 47% buildup per shot and only needs to shoot a target 3 times to cause them to Bleed, while Ivy has 8.2% buildup per shot so 12 shots are needed to cause a bleed.

The buildup per shot is also affected by weapon falloff, requiring more shots for the bleed to occur at further distances. The bleed damage itself is unaffected by distance.
Headshots do not affect the buildup per shot.
Light and Heavy Melee attacks count as 1 shot each
