Morphology

bloodlust = blood + lust (semi-transparent) = blood + lust

The components indicate an aggressive desire, but the gaming sense (a temporary combat buff) is a specialized metaphor not fully predictable from the parts.

Etymology

In gaming, bloodlust uses the same parts, blood ('blood') and lust ('strong desire'), to show a sudden urge to fight, so it names a short spell that makes players attack faster or hit harder.
