Blind

You are significantly less accurate

Being Blinded causes 20% less Rating and Rating, and lasts for 4 seconds unless otherwise specified.

Blind (or Blinded) is a debuff that lessens the accuracy and the evasion of the affected target by 20% and lowers the light radius to the minimum value.

Mechanics

The base duration of Blind is 4 seconds. The effects of the debuff can be scaled by Blind effect.

Blind's debuffs have no effect when attacking with Resolute Technique or attacking a target which has Unwavering Stance.

Blind can be also inflicted through whirlwinds and smoke clouds from the Shroud Walker monster modifier.
