Functionality

Blinds the target, causing it to wander disoriented for up to 10 sec. Any damage caused will remove the effect.

Limitations

• Any further damage will break the effect of Blind, so Blind does not combine well with DoT attacks like Garrote or Rupture.
• The cooldown for Blind is not reset by Preparation as of Patch 2.0.

Rank Table

Rank	Level	Cost
1	34	1 26

Notes

• Considered a ranged attack, and cannot be dodged or parried.
• In Patch 2.3, the [Blinding Powder] reagent requirement was removed and became a physical attack as opposed to nature like a poison. Now shares the same diminish category as Cyclone and is now diminished in PvE as well as PvP.

Related Talents

• Elusiveness reduces the cooldown of your blind by 45 or 90 seconds.

Related Items

• The 3 piece bonus of the Madcap's Outfit armor set decreases the cooldown of blind by 20 seconds.

Tips

• When fighting rogues, spamming your blind ability can give you an opportunity to break out of a stunlock.
• Blind gives opportunity to use First Aid - use it!
• Blind can now be dispelled with PvP trinket so beware of relying fully on it.
