    And here's the proof that it does nothing. My Blind skill is 120 with 102 sun attunement and that's a 5 stack.

    What's the point of having a skill if it does absolutely nothing?

    I'll mark this for review to see if it's intended for blind to have a literal "0" for these shadow creatures. Have you noticed the "0" on any other mobs or just these?
    I'd like to see if it's intended and the '0' is literally the game's way of telling us that the spell doesn't work on them .. but that doesn't quite make sense to me. IMHO Sun magic is essentially the direct opposite of Shadow.. so in theory it should work, and be strong to boot..

    (I read the discussion in the feedback forum about blind seemingly not helping reduce glancing blows and whether it's actually having any impact. I'll poke around with that myself tomorrow to see what I can observe)

    In today's livestream, @Chris said that this shouldn't be happening.

    Thanks - I heard and was going to search for this post, but you saved me the trouble - much appreciated! I changed it to 'verified'.

    I don't know if it helps but it seems to me that the more a creature is supposed to be vulnerable to sun magic, the less effect this skill has.

    More evidence of how broken the Blind skill is.

    Same thing happens with dragons too. An example Orange Pit Dragon.
