[QUOTE="Nullzone, post: 5407262, member: 97538"] I tend to rule blind a bit dynamically. Anyone who is blinded has to make an average DC perception to identify a particular target amongst the chaotic noise of battle; success means they can pick out their target, failure by less than 4 means they can still direct an attack but they run the risk of hitting an adjacent ally instead if the attack misses, while 5 or greater means they can pick a direction and fire but get no say in what their target ends up being, it gets determined by an (open) die roll amongst all targets in a given direction. If they are blinded AND deafened, and don't have any sort of extra sense (like the telepathic link that Shardmind gets), they can only direct an attack against a target that hits them personally or are subject to the open die roll in a random direction clause. Area attacks are not subject to any of this, as usual, since you're aiming "geographically" instead of targeting a creature. [/QUOTE]
