Blind Fight

[thanatos]

Is Blind-fight worth taking?

I don't quite understand what it does.  Does it help against hiders or against invisible opponents?

Thanks

..? I was told it didnt work..

[thanatos]

Well, it seems useful according to description, but to me I haven't actually noticed any benefits...so yea..

Would Blindfight be worth sacrificing Toughness?  According to Hubba, no.  I'd like to get a second opinion.

Thanks again.

I get it on most of my characters... it seems to help vs WoFers

[thanatos]

Ah, well WoF isn't a problem for me.  I'm a SR Monk...so I guess I don't need Blindfight then..

i think it's also a "poor man's" Darkvision, cause on WoI i took it and darkness doesn't cause AoO.

Gives 50% more change to hit a consealed/invisible opponent on the first attack. As normal monk you won't see much difference, as hider doing your first attack on a consealed opponent you notice it better.

Wof makes blind and that gives your opponent 50% conseal, so there you will hit a bit more with blindfight than without.

apparantly it effectively halfs ppls conceal bonus

e.g.

50% -> 25%
20% -> 10%

etc

I gave up on Blind Fighting long ago.
Only take it now if I have few choices of feats.

*gives a thumbs down*
What were they thinking when they made this feat.
This could help fighters VS casters a lot if made better.

Blind fighting is by far the most valuable feat to possess in pvp...I take it at level 1 on all my chars ...those fighting without it will miss twice as often when dueling someone who is concealed 50%...twice as often = very bad..

Also you get bonuses vs. hidden chars and when blind...about +4ac

[thanatos]

I dunno, Mo...thats according to the description.  But I can never tell whether it actually works or not.

In anycase, I'm using Toughness, and 40 HP is not something to trifle with.

I've done extensive testing with blind fighting and it does what is says it does.

So blind fight takes away from the self-conseal feat hiders tend to have?
