Blind is Bullshit
 
Getting chain blinded by level 15 monsters and killed is bullshit. I wouldn't mind it quite so much if the damned effect didn't completely blind not only my character, but me as well. User Interface? Gone completely. And all I can do is stand there gormlessly with auto attack on while hoping that I was facing the enemy and actually had them targeted before I lost my sight.. (spoiler alert, I didn't and wound up nuking myself once or twice in the bargain).

Hello loading screen, at least I can see the loading bar twitching as I'm sent to my bind point.

Fuck the gorge of king xorbb, no wonder no one adventures there. WTF were the devs thinking? Hur hur, it's so fun to play a game that you can't even see, hur! The place has muddites, minotaurs, and evil eyes, and two out of three of those blind several times each fight. What a piece of shit zone. Brahmn can keep his stupid necklace anyway.

I feel you, i was caught with my pants down the first time too.

With clever positioning and repositioning strategies and good knowledge of your ui/shortcuts the issue can be largely mitigated. Honestly being blinded isn’t much different to alt tabbing out to f5 forums.

I remember dying in Frozen Tower at 60 as a druid, because of Amontahepna, who is level 42. That dude is a prick- When things go all right for him, and all wrong for you- it's long duration spin stunlocks, drains your mana pool, and complete heals. And it's the holy trinity of a bad time for you.

if you're a caster you can still use your spell hotkeys. If it's 1 mob on you and you can root, hit root and step back after a couple seconds and hop it landed. Or you can try and Gate. I've gated out while blind just keep spamming the button in case you got interrupted.
