Have you noticed those weird icons that sometimes appear at the bottom of your screen while playing Back4Blood? Here is a list of those icons, and what they mean!

Want to help me improve this guide? Here's the most important info I seem to be missing right now:
- How quickly does one stack of Bleeding deal damage?
-
How much does Cocky decrease your Accuracy when you get hit? Don't ask how I figured this out. It was painful.
- How much do Festering Ridden decrease Stamina and Healing Efficiency?
-
How much does Noxious Fumes decrease Accuracy, Aim Speed, Reload Speed, and Recoil Control?
-
How much does Oxygen increase Accuracy, Reload Speed, and Recoil Control?
- How much does Pus Covered effect Reload, Move, and Use Speed?
- How much does a direct hit from a Retch effect Reload, Move, and Use Speed?
- How quickly does a Pusflinger's Bait Jar drain Stamina?
- How quickly does Smells Like Victory heal you?
- How much does an Urchin mine damage and slow you?
- which combat attributes does Dan's Vengeful ability effect, and by how much?
Please contact me at Kuttlefisch@frostfeather.net if you are able to determine any of these values, or if you have other comments or suggestions.
