Splinted Arm
Your arm is splinted, slowing your weapon handling, reload and swing speeds. This will take some time to heal.
Ranged or power attacks will delay healing or even hurt you. Further critical hits may result in a broken arm.
Cause and consequences
An arm injury impairs weapon handling, reloading and melee combat. It can follow a combat hit.
How to treat or respond
Apply a splint or cast. Ranged and power attacks can hinder recovery; reduce strain on the arm.
Prevention
Avoid trading hits and maintain armor. After injury, favor a safe return over a prolonged fight.
