[1.2.276] More rebalancing

That reminds me... is Blind actually at all useful? You know, the Bowman skill?


Cause -20, or even -20% monster accuracy, from Threaten, is barely enough to matter. Monster accuracy is the quotient in a miss rate, so effectively you get 25% more misses. If you were getting hit 10% of the time, you now get 12.5%. If you were getting 50%, it's 62.5%. If it's -20, then it's obviously less effective - most bosses have 200-250, so it's only gonna be about a 10% increase in miss rate.

And as such, it barely matters on a Warrior. Right now, wearing half a dozen equips that have avoid bonuses, I have just over 90 avoid. I don't get better than 8% miss rates on any major bosses. My base avoid is only around 20.

If it was a 20% increased chance to miss then it might do some good in general, but as it is I can't see the Blind effect being much good.

I personally don't have blind yet, but I know a few people that do ... From what they tell me and considering archers have relatively low miss rates normally, blind helps a ton more than the 25% more misses. it's probably a flat miss chance.
