What does this setting do?
Multiplies damage from hits and bites. What matters more than the number is the consequence: in SCUM wounds and infections are tedious to treat. A higher value therefore costs players not just health but bandages, antibiotics and playtime. On servers with scarce loot that bites harder than the figure suggests.
Which value suits my server?
Relaxed PvE
0.5 to 0.8 — a mistake costs time, not the character.
Classic PvP
1.0. Puppets stay annoying; other players are the real threat.
Hardcore
1.5 and up, but only with medicine within reach.
What to watch out for
New players suffer most
Someone who just landed has neither armour nor bandages. Above 1.5 newcomers die to the first puppet they meet — and do not come back.
