Bloody mess - Luck Perk
It gives you
5%-10%-15% more damage to your guns? or how this works?

[Eriskumma]

Bloody mess gives damage buff to all damage you make no matter what weapon you use.
EDIT. It also explodes the enemies to bits.

[Pharis Gough]

It gives damage to all attacks. So more damage for gun, explosives, grenades, and melee.

I have this baton, it reads 54 dmg, and level 1 bloody mess increased the damage of the weapon to 55. When I use it, well you know.

[insert food here]

All perks like this only add to the BASE damage of the weapon. Not the total damage after it is increased from weapon mods, mutations or prefixes etc....

So depending on what the base damage is it may only be adding a very small amount of damage.

Tried it for awhile. Thought it was a waste of space.

Base damage for a baton ranges from 15 (at level 5) to 40 (at level 45). Rank 1 Bloody Mess boosts base damage by 5%, which would be an increase of 0.75 damage (for a level 5 baton) to 2 (for a level 45 baton). Due to rounding, you may indeed only see a single point difference.

So yeah, it is pathetic. Bloody Mess is one of those things you only invest in if you have nothing else at all to fill out your build.

Bloody Mess makes those Mobs into juicy giblets

Fun fact: Confetti mess is an alternative form of Bloody Mess. It was created by the dev who made it so he could show his young son what he did for work.

Speculation: Because confetti mess is a derivative of bloody mess I believe it is bugged to also increase damage despite not showing it. Whenever I end up with confetti mess mobs seem to explode much easier than without.
