Adder Bites: How to Heal?

[linkfanpc]

Just got my butt handed to me by an Adder from lagging while out of stamina and water. Literally worst luck possible. Anyway, same dude gave me three bites (Why is that possible? Wouldn't all venom be gone from one bite?) and idk what to do. Got my stamina and energy full like the wiki says, does anybody know any secret/undocumented ways of helping? Does sleeping help? Would the wound tick up while i log off? Pretty scared right now but it was my own fault for not paying attention. (Although i could swear his red circle didn't appear until after he aggroed me, and i have NO clue why my waterskin was empty.)

Don't sleep in a bed, it accelerates the wound growth. Eat all the con food you can, it'll raise your max hp to counteract the wounds. Acquire ancient roots by any means necessary, and pray.

Pretty much my plan, lol.

I've got some old wounds treated IE toad buttered, so should i still just logoff instead of sleep? Won't my healing wounds not heal if i don't sleep? Or at least will heal slower? Every HHP counts right now.

Sleep in a bed. The wounds are going to grow the same whether you sleep it off or just log out. Sleeping just gets it over with faster if you are going to die.

I've don't recall reading reports of them more than doubling, but I'd have to dig back and double check that statement. A memory of an odd report or two is itching the back of my brain. My experience is about 50-75% increase in damage over the next day or two.

You can't rely on that to be accurate. You can bite a bear in the ass one time, the next time one aggros you from half a screen away.

The idea was if he delays the wound healing/worsening, he could potentially burst through it with extra con. There are also several gildings that boost con that you could equip in hopes of surviving the bite, although I still think the concept of con clothing to be oddly hilarious.

Sure, if you can get yourself another 10, 20, 30 HP, then by all means try to live. If it's a hopeless situation (need 20 or 30 CON more to hope to survive and no way to get it) or the total isn't enough to kill you, then is there an issue with using a bed?

It's all good, awoke today with all three dissipating and 40 HHP to spare. Scary situation nonetheless, i'll definitely give a much bigger buffer range to adders from now on!

Oh yeah, and suck it snake!

And why not something realistic : Adder Bite + Leech = Leech Burn. Leeches sucking blood.... seems legit.
