Bleeding is a damage effect similar to Afterburn that causes a gradual loss of health until the effect wears off, or the victim dies. Bleeding causes a more rapid health loss than afterburn, but ends more quickly. Bleed duration does not stack on multiple hits; being struck again by a bleed-inflicting weapon does not add an additional bleed duration, but rather 'resets' it to full duration . The only way to stop bleeding is by finding a Health kit or a resupply cabinet, though any other healing source can cancel out the damage.
Bleed damage cannot Crit, however it can still Mini-Crit if the target is covered in Jarate or if the player who caused the bleeding has been buffed by the Buff Banner.

If you are bleeding:
- Your screen will appear to swim and have a red hue.
- You will notice a red drop on your Health display, which will indicate that you have been wounded with a bleed-inflicting weapon.
- You will flinch, as with fire, each time the bleeding inflicts damage.
If a teammate or enemy is bleeding:
- Blood will drip from the teammate and they will flinch as their Health drains away.
- Spies will bleed visibly even if they're cloaked or disguised.
