Blind

In-game description:

Condition. While suffering from this ailment, your melee and missile attacks have a 90% chance to "miss." Your projectiles also have a greater chance to stray from their intended target.

Notes

• A blind character can be spotted due to the black mist that appears in front of their face.
• Miss from blind is calculated when the attack would hit the target. Blind applied to foes while their projectile is in flight can cause the projectile attack to miss. Similarly, removing blindness with a projectile in flight can cause the projectile to hit.
• Both attack and non-attack projectiles will tend to launch off center even on stationary foes (they may dodge your projectiles more easily, including magical projectiles).
