Me and a player I texted to in the hub talked about it but i still dont see a definite answer for my brain to fully know the knowledge so can someone put in text for me what +1 wounds mean beyond any just the general idea of people going down, does it affect the growth of the purplebar like curse re…

Wounds are how many times you can go down in a mission before dying. They are represented by number of segments of your health bar. Whenever you go down, you lose a segment, meaning you also have reduced max health. Corruption reduces your max health and can make you lose wounds even without being d…

Is there nothing deeper into the explanation then that? Dont i take purple dmg on higher difficulties from some hits? Its hard to remember it all in great detail since everything that happens in the lvl 3s are very chaotic for me, scraping out a win ever few games

Pox walkers are the more green, diseased and horned basic zombies.

Everyone except Ogryn has 4 starting wounds in difficulty 1, 3 wounds in difficulty 2 and 3, and 2 wounds in difficulty 4 and 5. Ogryn has an innate extra wound.

So my curio that add +1 wounds doesn’t have an apparent showing for me there? Or was it not working at all? I only saw 3 health bars on me in a lvl 3 mission with 1 curio at lvl 11 which was +1 wounds and 10% gunner dmg resistance. I play on nearly the lowest setting since my pc is on the weaker sid…
