Eliminated redundant distinction between 1.10 and 1.11a, and 1.11b
{{Item navbox}}
==Overview==
Open Wounds is a weapon mod which leads to a constant loss of life on the target hit over 8 seconds (200 frames). It's not actual damage the target receives, but a negative life regeneration, which is <u>not</u> offset against target's damage regeneration (for monsters, hirelings and pets). Instead, regeneration is immediately cut off once Open Wounds steps in (Replenish Life from items and healing from a skill like [[Prayer]] still function). Unlike Prevent Monster Heal the Open Wounds mod will also work when applied by a hireling or [[Iron Golem]].
Common abbreviation for Open Wounds is "OW".
==Formula==The formula is different for different versions of the depending on game. The amount of version: life loss drain increased drastically from V1.09 to V1in 1.10, and was again slightly increased in V1.11b (the actual version of the game)+.
===V11.11b10+===
Life drain per frame in bits (1 bit = 1/256 point):

This may then be modified against certain targets or when using certain attacks:
*0.25 for attacker using a Melee Attack (1/4) with any melee attack on a Player.<br>player*0.125 for attacker using Ranged Attack (1/8) with any ranged attack on a Player.<br>player*0.5 for attacker using Ranged (1/2) with any melee or Melee ranged attack on a Boss Monster any Champion, Unique, Super Unique or boss (excluding normal or minion.<br>Putrid Defiler) monster*1 for attacker using Ranged with any melee or Melee ranged attack on any other target.
Life drain per second in points ===V1.10 and V1.11a==='''Life loss per frame:'''drain * 25/256
Although duration is 8 seconds (200 frames), life does not drain in the first frame and so only does so for 199 frames.<br><br>===V11.09===In V1.09 duration Duration of OW was only 4 seconds and the same formula was used for all character levels. Also life loss wasn't influenced by a target modifier.
'''Life loss per frame:'''
Total life loss = Life loss per second * 4 (the duration of OW in V1.09)
==Examples==For each version I assume a character level of 85 and a normal monster as target.
===1.10+=== '''Life drain per frame in bits'''<br> = 40 + 1341 + (45*85-601319) * 45 * 1<br>= 40 + 1341 + 1125<br>= 2506

==FAQ==
===Which skills/attacks carry OW and which don't?===
In General, every ''''attack'''' carries OW - i.e. bare fists attack, normal weapon attack and skills like Whirlwind, Zeal, Assassin's charge-up attacks and so on will deliver OW.
'''Skills, that carry OW:'''
*[[Blade Fury]]
*Kicks in general
*Multishot [[Multiple Shot]] (only the two middle arrows)*[[Smite]]
'''Skills, that <u>don't</u> carry OW:'''
*[[Blade Sentinel]]*[[Blade Shield]]*Multishot [[Multiple Shot]] (all arrows except for the two middle ones)
===Is there a cap on OW?===
===So what can I do against OW in PvP?===
Life drain cannot be reduced by any form of damage reduction, and its duration cannot be reduced by [[Cleansing]] or [[Fade]]. Replenish Life from items is a direct counter. Against another player, a level 30 player in 1.1110+ applies 109 bit life drain per frame with a melee attack, and 54 bit life drain per frame with a ranged attack: this can be countered entirely by Replenish Life +109 and +54 respectively.
===Will every target suffer from OW?===
