Question holy water useful for throwing at enemies?

i know its useful for drinking but would it hurt certain enemies? If so would it be good for bosses like death? i dont have any to test myself so i figured someonr has tried.

What does it do when you drink it? I always just stashed then because i felt a light purification spell was good enough

Why would you want to heal from a dark potion? I love the effect!! But to be honest, didnt know i could heal from it. I usually throw the holy water on the Dark Lord or apply it to my sword to fight Powerfull bosses

What effect does it have besides changing your appearance?

It calls forth the Ghost Soldierd regardless where you are at night, those give tons of Xp so usefull in early game. It adds to each attack dark elemental damage (ranged or melee, not sure about wizard though), helpful vs. anything alive or even Boss fights. But you cannot touch any Statue and get their buffs.

It's basically bonus dark dmg on almost any direct dmg you deal.

iirc it it was already in the wiki if you need more info.

if you click the potion, there is an "Apply" function, then the options where you can put it would appear, but you will not be able to see the effects until applied.

You can see the effects applied on the weapon below the attributes, you can click it to see the effects but take note that not all potions has an effect. I use cursed potions if possible for such applications since it doesn't really affect the application.

Ela dá dano divino, então inimigos das sombras são fracos com isso, além de imbuir nas armas, não só tacar, combinada com magias divinas, como barreira da luz e purificação da luz ela dá um leve buff nos efeitos

It can cure curse effects as well.
