97 of the cent useless.
It saves you from death but you can also die within it.
Might cause a war.

This may provide a solution
water
8 times a day
There's a saying 'drink eight glasses of water a day'.
Bent
The water molecule H-O-H is V-shaped or bent.
97 of the cent useless
97% of the water on Earth is salty ocean water which is not good for drinking.
It saves you from death but you can also die within it
You need water to survive, but may drown in it.
Might cause a war

$\begingroup$ Exactly the intended one. For hint 5 rot 13(Sbe uvag 5, gur vagraqrq bar jnf gur fcrphyngvba bs Guveq Jbeyq Jne qhr gb vg.) was intended but still you earn a check. $\endgroup$ Aug 3, 2020 at 2:06

Maybe an answer? I'm not sure how this applies to #4 or #5, but it works reasonably well for 1, 2, and 3.
The number $3$
- 8 times a day
$1/8$ of a day is $3$ hours.
- Bent
The physical shape of the number $3$ is clearly bent.
- 97 of the cent useless.
Something that is $97$ percent useless is $3$ percent useful.
Again, not sure how this could work for #4 or #5. I'll have to think on it.
