Thread: Dodge+blind question

Does being blinded all but stop dodge from working? I dueled an mfencer friend of mine last night and blinded him very quickly into the fight, after that he dodged only about 4 attacks total.... He was centered, and I thought I read that he should've dodged like 83% of them or something. Once the blind wore off he dodged considerably more. Was it just coincidence, or does blind stop dodge from working?


I checked the stickied threads and couldn't figure out where it'd be at, so pardon me for starting a new thread

Blind only lowers accuracy

How about intimidate then? He may have been intimidated, I heard about it lowering defenses too but never read specifics about it.


I think its an odd coincidence that he'd dodge only 4 attacks out of 50ish, especially while centered

It would help if we knew what your professions were and your accuracy. ALso what he was actually holding in his hand. Basically the states are as follows:


Intimidate: cuts damage outputand defenses


Stun: slight delay, lowers damage output and defenses


Dizzy: lowers defenses (less than intimidate and stun), and gives chance of falling when posture cahnging up


Blind: decreases accuracy

intimidate and stun states will both significantly reduce the chance to dodge

That answers it I suppose


I did drop all the states on him eventually.

If it matters, he's mfencer with novice tka and a little swordsman and pikeman, nothing significant

I'm tkm 0443 swordsman and 0040 pistoleer


We have these nearly untouchable fencers come through our town from time to time, in their 90% comp and whatnot... only way to take them out is DoTs, but a lot of them are doctor too... Was looking for an alternative to killing them

Intimidate us and it's game over.

Try it some time with a friend. Duel him with COB on and watch how many attacks you dodge. Then have him intimidate you.

Oh dear.
