[QUOTE="ArwensDaughter, post: 7621696, member: 6804968"] I have a player with a blind earth genasi fighter character. We gave her blindsight to 10’ and tremorsense to 100. The way we handle ranged attacks for her is that her AC is reduced by 2 for ranged attacks. The logic is that she knows the arrow is fired (tremorsense) but she has no sense of where it is from that point until it enters her blindsight range. So we felt advantage on the attack was a bit much, but that there should be some adjustment, thus the -2 to AC. (Alternatively, you could give +2 to the attack roll). For her character, I’d rule that fog makes no difference to her attacks. Sighted creatures attacking her would be at disadvantage due to fog, as is standard. But her AC would still take a hit if it a ranged attack. I should note that attacks from non-grounded attackers are a whole different matter for her: they get the typical advantage on blinded targets. [/QUOTE]
