So bleeding deaths give credit to the person that made them bleed xp and karma wise, but does not give credit over deathsight. Just the generic bleeding death message. I assume since it already tracks who made them bleed, it wouldn't be too hard to code a new death message that credits the person that made them bleed.
ex. Lucy has been bled dry by Ethel.
I know, it's pretty trivial, but all of us that get bleed kills fairly regularly want our credit!

Bards don't get credit for making people's head's explode.
But in truth there could be an advantage to that.

I believe that bleeding deaths were intentionally made to not give credit on deathsight because of the Serpentlord class in Achaea. They're so stealthy that they needed an option to kill their targets without giving themselves away. It's only a theory (but it's not a joke).

Bleeding deaths give credit to whoever got the last hit before they died.

You may wanna yknow... AVOID bleeding to death first of all... But either way...
NOT being exposed to the whole basin that you made so nd so die by bleeding to death is actually an up. Pretty useful if your tracking someone or if you wish to be stealthy. Also even more useful if they cant tell who they were attacked by

We're talking about deathsight here, when it says "Soandso bled to death." and doesn't mention the killer at all.

I think what he's saying is that the code doesn't work as well as Celina thinks it does, and it won't always give credit to the person who actually caused any of the bleeding. I can't verify the truth of that, but if it's true, it'll probably result in more disappointed droodles.

There are a couple of bugs lingering with bleeding, I'm sure, but that's beside the point, I think.

How is there a lingering bug with bleeding? It seems to work "as intended"-- trying to figure out which point of bleeding came from which person, and which clot removes the bleeding from which person's list, is a heck of a lot more complicated than the current way. It does not seem to be a bug...

What about when Sidd bled out that guy and it said a pot killed him or whatever?

That was some other bug with deathsight, was it not? Such as when Sojiro got judged by a cheesecake during a wildnodes.
Vathael2009-08-06 03:14:38
Well there is a simple way to test this but I am pretty sure I am right cause I remember a few times I've hit people right before they bled to death with a no bleeding attack and got the kill.
Chade2009-08-06 04:01:59
Got bleeding runes on your hammers?

no

What about crotamine? Make the person who afflicted the person with crotamine get the deathsight credit!

They do. So and so has failed to cure the fatal poison of who dee ha. Something like that.
I mean, if the code tracks who gets the kill credit for the bleeding death, I can't imagine it would be hard to translate that into a deathsight.
Maybe the correct person won't always get credit (as bleeding can come from multiple sources) but that's not really the issue. Last hit kill credit isn't always fair anyways. It's more about when you're alone and kill someone.
Ilyarin2009-08-06 09:07:49
Strangely, I was thinking about this the other day too, and just forgot to post it. I would really love it if bleeding deathsights gave credit.

The bugs with bleeding have nothing to do with the deathsight. I've heard people say they bled to death outside the arena from bleeding given inside the arena, for example.
And, I still say that bleeding deaths aren't meant to give credit (on deathsight), but I don't care much either way if it gets changed now or not.

That used to happen. A long time ago. It was, as far as I know, fixed.
