A few things to note about darkness, just to get them out there. 
Darkvision does Not help against Darkness and Deeper Darkness.
Daylight and Dispel Magic are the only tactics to get rid of the darkness.
Scent is useful.
Blindsight is Very Useful.
I've used Darkness several times (Damn that Illusionist with his bat familiar).
If there's a druid in the party, shifting into a wolf would help out, simply put, they can smell their way to the enemy, and if five feet away, can lock in on their position. Then barking can Definetly tell eveyone where the enemy is.
