The creature cannot see. It takes a –2 penalty to Armor Class, loses its Dexterity bonus to AC (if any), and takes a –4 penalty on most Strength- and Dexterity-based skill checks and on opposed Perception skill checks. All checks and activities that rely on vision (such as reading and Perception checks based on sight) automatically fail. All opponents are considered to have total concealment (50% miss chance) against the blinded character. Blind creatures must make a DC 10 Acrobatics skill check to move faster than half speed. Creatures that fail this check fall prone. Characters who remain blinded for a long time grow accustomed to these drawbacks and can overcome some of them.
You are skilled at attacking opponents that you cannot clearly perceive.
Benefit: In melee, every time you miss because of concealment (see Combat), you can reroll your miss chance percentile roll one time to see if you actually hit.
An invisible attacker gets no advantages related to hitting you in melee. That is, you don't lose your Dexterity bonus to Armor Class, and the attacker doesn't get the usual +2 bonus for being invisible. The invisible attacker's bonuses do still apply for ranged attacks, however.
You do not need to make Acrobatics skill checks to move at full speed while blinded.
Question is does it negate loss of Dex bonus from Blind condition, if the answer is No, then clearly Invisible creature isn't same as not visible creature which somewhat wierd.
No. Not being able to see one creature is not the same as not being able to see at all.
RAW no, but the creature is effectively invisible to you.
When you are blind you lose -2 to AC.
When a creature is invisible they get a +2 to attack.
If the feat allows you to roll twice against them I don't see why you still would not retain dex against them. Mechanically there is not much difference.
In short most GM's would probably allow it. It just depends on how much of a stickler they are for the rules.
No. Not being able to see one creature is not the same as not being able to see at all.
So you're saying Blind-Fight doesn't work against a Mass Invisible, or several opponents with their own individual Invisibility effect?
