Question about Blind Fight

To anyone who can verify this to me,

Hey everyone just asking a question about blind fight? It says that this feat grants the character the ability to fight well if blinded or against invisible creatures. The character gets to roll her miss chance percentile to see if her attack actually hits. As well, invisible creatures get no bonus to hit the character in melee. My question here is the word blinded? Does blinded apply to darkness? Reason is that when you are in darkness you are blinded and will blind fight apply to this?

Anytime there is a Miss Chance on you or a Concealment on an enemy a percentile roll is made. Blindfight let's you reroll (one time) this percentile check if you fail.

Yes, darkness gives 50% concealment from any toon or mob that doesn't have ultravision. However, for someone without ultra to actually attack someone in magical darkness, they have to use a melee attack and get up close (ranged attacks won't allow you to target someone in magical darkness if you don't have ultra...with or without Blindfight I believe). So you reroll on a miss. NWN allows for upto a 50% concealment in 10% increments (one can not have greater than 50% concealment no matter what, even if all bonuses add up to greater than 50%). Darkness and Improved Invisibility give 50% (Improved Invis grants 50% concealment from someone even if they have True Seeing), the self conceal feats give 10% each. So here's the stats for those who are statistically challenged:

Defender is concealed and attacker doesn't have Blindfight:
10% concealed = 10% miss chance
20% = 20%
etc upto
50% = 50% miss chance.

Now, if the defender is concealed and the attacker has Blindfight, here's your new percents to miss:
10% concealed = 1% miss chance
20% = 4%
30% = 9%
40% = 16%
50% concealed = 25% miss chance

I don't have a drow, but I'm curious. Does the Blindfight feat help drow when they are blinded by the light?

Blinded gives a % chance to miss, usually 50%. So ya, it should definitely help.

and coz not all mobs react to darkness, they remain flatfooted i think. which means easier to hit for the assailant.
