Blink (Status Effect)
From FFXIclopedia, the free Final Fantasy XI encyclopedia
Description
.png){kind=small}
Blink is a beneficial status effect that provides shadowy simulacra to absorb enemy attacks until it wears off or is removed. Benefiting characters gain a number of shadow images that absorb normal attacks, most spells, and some monster abilities. Actions directed at a player with Blink may either hit the player himself or be absorbed by an image. Once an image absorbs an attack, it is spent.
Unlike Utsusemi, Blink doesn't provide guaranteed protection from successive attacks, making it less reliable for protection.
How to remove the effect
- Knocking away images with attacks, spells, and abilities will remove the images.
- AoE spells will remove all shadows and still deal damage.
