It causes health degen of 3, and there are a few different skills associated with it. (i.e. Gash.)

It's like a poison effect, except instead of being poisoned it's like you got stabbed and your blood is just leaking out everywhere. sorta like slitting your wrist. .....I think..

Really? When did that change? That seems like something I'd have noticed. Because that would make bleed better than Conjure Phantasm, Poison, Life Siphon/Transfer... well, better than any normal DoT in the game considering the cost.

As far as I am aware it really is still only -3. Unless it got changed last night while I was sleeping.

no it causes 3 pips of degeneration, phantasm is 5, poison is 4. But the way it works is like this; 1 pip = 2 hit points / sec...so if you have 3 pips, its -6 hit points / sec....
