Nice update it'll make death more sure. But there's pretty much only restrictions on leaves, scrolls and potions. What about mana crystals? Plat allowing, they grant inf mana.

It's pretty much just Brigid mages which can't blind, other mages are still able to wield weapons. A dian bow or xmas flame strike is enough to do the job.
But spells do need fixing among other things within the mage system.

Mages don't have any way to blind, but warriors have a solid way to keep us blinded permanently. This isn't balanced, they can use tons of heals and just keep owning us while we're blind (which isn't a huge problem, I can navigate while I'm blind but I can't leaf).. it's fair for a simple 1v1 but we need a way to also blind the enemy so they can't leaf either.

Make mana spells blind. Simple enough, they use a ton of mana... if people think that's OP all warriors have to do is slash a sword normally to blind us consistently.

I agree, however, spells are largely a part of the mudlib that I am not able to edit. I will see if there is some hackish workaround to make this happen.

I'm glad you agree, anything you can do would be awesome.

Blinding still affects a player after death and respawn. This should be fixed.
