Battle Hardened
Tier 1Battle Hardened is one of the rare purely cosmetic Spirit Charms: you visually bleed on hits at lower health. There are no stats, no triggers, no drawbacks - just a battle-worn look for characters who like their scars visible. The flavor line carries the whole identity: "A hundred scars. What is one more?"
Because it occupies Notch space like any other Tier 1 charm, wearing it is strictly an aesthetic statement priced in loadout capacity. That cost is small - Tier 1 is the cheapest bracket - but in a min-maxed 3-Notch build, a cosmetic slot is still a real choice. For roleplay-forward players, screenshot hunters, or anyone building a grizzled-veteran look, it is the only documented way to get conditional blood VFX tied to low health.
The charm weighs 1 wt. and lists no level requirement in the documented tooltip. Its zone and drop or vendor source are not documented in current community documentation, so how it is obtained remains undocumented - the general charm sources (zone finds, Valley of Screams pedestals) are the presumed routes.
