Yes, very dice hungry.. but the Cleric's healing touch makes for a good stabilizing action!#2: One key to pay attention to is whether the spell inflicts a condition on the character directly, or applies the condition to characters within the spell's area of effect. Which gets slightly more convoluted when the spell is 'discerning' and attaches the spell's area of effect to a character....    Spell A targets a creature and afflicts the 'blinded' condition. This would be an instantaneous effect and lasts until the creature 'shakes it off'. This is much like a damaging spell that deals the damage as an instantaneous effect.  In this case duration only applies to how long the caster can hold the spell 'charged' before delivering it.   Spell B targets an area creating a magical darkness that blocks all vision, effectively blinding those inside the area. The creatures are blinded until they leave the spell's area of effect.  If they return to the darkened area they are again effectively blinded.  Spell C targets creatures within an area and attaches minor globes of magical darkness to their noses. The creatures are effectively blinded until the spell expires or is dispelled. If I were to do a non-shakeable condition I would follow the 'enduring damage' concept where the spell re-applies the condition each round until the duration is over. So an 'enduring Blindness' that lasts for at least 1 minute would cost 4MP.</blockquote>
