Can someone explain to me why a monster who is blind can wipe out an opponent? I thought blind meant they would miss, but I guess I am wrong. I just watched a monster who I specifically saw it say he was blinded wipe out a monster. What is the point of blind if it doesn't work?

@Suzznee
Reduces accuracy by 50%. Can still hit of course - just a LOT less likely.

@C0ntr1v3d Thanks for explanation. I have played long enough, but have never see a monster wipe out an opponent when it is blind. It is really quite discerning.

@C0ntr1v3d Any thing on why monsters can have blind AND precision active at the same time ? does it cancel out or does the skill first hit for -50% accuracy and then again with +50% ???

I believe they used to override and replace one another but now effectively cancel one another - will test later.

Precision is not removing Blind or viceversa. They "negate" themselves (+50 -50 =+0)
Same is happening with Damage modifiers.

We need to define and decide the behaviour of those status.

No they don't. I had a monster blinded and with precision and it missed an effect on a non hardened/tough/bukwark monster.
Also the same with daze+precision.

Perhaps they negate eachother in terms of chance to actually hit a monster but they don't negate eachother when it comes to effects.
If it is not intended to work as it does now, feel free to fix it.

Hi Rage. Blind or Precission modify the "first roll" of an attack (the one you see in the game)

Then, there is another roll (where hardened modifies the result) but not being affected by Precission or Blind (but there is a small chance to miss)

@Carlos This brings up something I was wondering about. If Burotgor is already blinded and he uses Bloodthirsty, do the blindness effects stack? That is to say, does he lose 50% of the 50% he's already lost, bringing his accuracy down to 25%?

Hi W.A.
We should not be able to stack two identical status effects.

This means that you cannot Blind + Blind (any monster).
But you could Blind + Daze + Sunburn (-50-25-15) Leaving it at a -90 Accuracy. A lot of pieces, but almost a denial.

and what does blind / give accuracy do or the other way around does one eliminate the other?

@Haka-Taka Thanks

Hi @Marianne-van-Es
I'm aware that we are not giving those information anywhere. Is on my plate to deliver a place where players can check the rules of the game, so it is easier for them to take decisions in combat :)
Meanwhile, ask whatever you need (This "Rulebook" can take time)

Thanks!

@Carlos, thank you for the clarification!
