While it does not feed upon blood like blood crystals, blacksteel can draw dangerous bleeding wounds.Blacksteel is so costly that weapons and armor made from it are always of masterwork quality; the masterwork cost is included in the prices given below.
A weapon made of blacksteel inflict 1 bleed damage on a confirmed critical hit. This bonus bleed damage increases to 2 if the weapon has a x3 modifier, or 3 if the weapon has a x4 modifier. If the target was already suffering from bleed damage, the blacksteel weapon instead inflicts twice as much additional damage on a critical hit. If a weapon made of blacksteel is used to inflict bleed damage, except through the above ability, that bleed damage increases by 1.
While blood crystal is unsuitable for armors, the unique structure of blacksteel allows it to staunch bleeding wounds rather than feed on them. An armor made of blacksteel reduces bleed damage by 1 for light armor, 2 for medium armor and 3 for heavy armor. This cannot reduce the bleed damage below 1, however if the damage would be reduced below 0 the bleed instead deals 1 nonlethal damage. Additionally the bleed damage automatically stanches after 1 minute.
