| Summary | 0009916: Using a fluid as a weapon causes it to break after three hits. | ||||
| Description | While playing Adventure Mode, I attacked an elf, picked up his blood, and started beating him with it. After hitting him exactly three times, the blood broke, displaying the message "The XXZepave Clockwave's elf blood laced with elf sweatXX breaks!" Wondering if this worked with other liquids, I traveled to a village, picked up some ice, and started beating the citizens with it. The ice broke after three hits. The same thing happened when I used snow. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | 1. Obtain some sort of fluid, it should work even if the fluid is frozen. 2. Attack a creature with the fluid. It should start taking damage. 3. After three hits, the fluid will break, displaying the message "The XX(name of object)XX breaks!" | ||||

Are you aware of the wear mechanic? I'm pretty sure it's just the wear mechanic destroying your fluids since they are so fragile, cause you know, they are fluids. You could interpret it as the fluid splashing everywhere. |

The wear and breakage of weapons is expected behavior. I think the real bugs here are that you can pick up liquid without a container and use it as a weapon. |

Maybe you should be able to pick up someone's blood and hurl it at somebody but after just one such attack it should "splash", not "break", and be again only on ground. With the right combat comments I think "you can pick up liquid without a container and use it as a (throwing) weapon" is not a problem. |

"Grab tongue with vomit" Unless you're force-feeding enemies puke, I'm wondering just WHY you would krump a git with fluids. |
