Combat attacks and such are visible while blind currently, though you cannot actually use the 'look' command.

Actually this isn't a bug with color spray, it's a feature of death shroud. Death shroud makes it so that you can always see undead and corpses, regardless of whether the corpses are buried or whether you're blind.

In other words, you're really blind, but you can still see your undead, hence how your undead (which you can "see") are hitting "someone" (which you can't see). This is also a neat feature that allows a blinded/dirted necro to be able to heal undead in his formation by formation if he'd like to.

A helpful little tip to add to what Edoras mentioned. Not only does death shroud allow you to see buried corpses, it allows you to target them with animate corpse. No shovel required!

That's actually something I either didn't know or had forgotten about.

This changes everything.

necros aren't weak after all

It isn't really a game-changer for necros, but there is something satisfying about about commanding a corpse to dig its way out of the grave. :devil:

That's sarcasm aimed at the_me. It would be nice if you didn't use that here.

Actually, it was sarcasm aimed at myself. You ruined the joke :(.
