Blinded

  • When blinded, a creature cannot see. Many checks may be impossible for the blinded creature (like using a perception check to spot someone in a crowd).

  • A blinded creature has disadvantage on attack rolls and dexterity saving throws.

  • Attacks made against a blinded creature have advantage.

  • A blinded creature's speed is halved.

  • A blinded creature cannot make attacks of opportunity because it cannot see the creature moving away.

  • A blinded creature does not have line of sight for spellcasting.

​Note: Blinded creatures that have blindsight can still see within their blindsight radius, but are blind beyond that. Click here for an example (3).
