Blood Burst is the second tier Blood spell from the Ancient Magicks spellbook, available at level 68 Magic after completion of the Desert Treasure I quest. It is capable of hitting up to 21 damage (without any magic damage boosts) per cast.

Blood Burst has a life leech effect that will heal the caster's Hitpoints by 25% of the damage dealt. This can be increased by wearing bloodbark armour, where each piece increases the amount healed by 2%, up to a maximum of 35%. When worn alongside the Ancient sceptre, this increases to 38.5% of the amount of damage inflicted.

Blood Burst is able to target up to nine targets in a 3x3 grid around its primary target, just like all other burst and barrage spells. Even if a target has very little remaining health or is otherwise immune to damage from the spell, it will still heal for the amount of damage it would have done.

As with all Ancient Magicks spells, the quest Desert Treasure I must be completed to cast this spell.
