What does Blind do?

[DirtySanchez]

I know it pisses people off, but to monsters, does it lower defence or something?

Edit: Fixed Silence to Blind, thanks

[Sonata]

I don't think so. I believe it does the same as always: prevents the monsters from using skills.

Shit, I'm thinking of blind duh...

I'm thinking it lowers the flee rate of the blinded monster, which is the same thing as players inflicted with Blind. Not sure if it affects hit rate as well.

[annihilate]

Effects both hit rate and flee rate of the person who is blinded. I'm not so sure but I think it's cuts it in half by 50% but I don't know for sure.

Well, looks like I'm too late ^^;

Anyways, yes, it prevents monsters from seeing you if you're too far.  Not very good when tanking since you lose em, and the next person who attacks it aggravates it.
