Blind M% for D seconds
Causes the target's vision to be obscured, making it harder for them to see. The Magnitude is the degree of blindness. At 100%, they will be completely unable to see anything. However, as a hostile effect, they will still try to find and attack you. If you are within melee range, they may still be able to attack and hit you. If you attack a blinded opponent, they may attempt to flee. A blinded object (should) have a lower hit rate and a decreased ability to spot sneaking targets.

Notes

• While Blind affects the player's vision itself, it does not turn off the Mini Map.
• Resist Magicka effects deter Blind's effect. One such example is on the Boots of Blinding Speed, which can be worn from the beginning without complete blindness if the wearer is a Breton or an Orc due to their natural resistance to magic.

Bugs

• Blind increases hit rate instead of decreasing it.
  • The Morrowind Code Patch fixes this bug.
  • OpenMW fixes this bug.
