04-28-07, 08:46 AM just wondering does anyone know EXACTLY how blindsense works, and is it always the same for every race. ie: grimlocks. can they sense whats on the other side of the door? if their blindsense isnt hearing and smelling, can they still hear outside of the 40ft.? is all this the same for our good old reptilian friends?? :dragon:

04-28-07, 11:11 AM the flavor text may vary a bit from one entry to the next but essentially the game mechanic is the same. Blindsense allows the creature to pinpoint the locations of any and everyone in its blindsense range, but still suffers the 50% miss chance if invisible. Blind sight ignores the miss chance altogether. It just works unless you have an effect that specifically defeats it like Superior Invisiblity.
