Blinding pulse is a level 2 psycast that reduces the sight capacity of pawns in its area of effect.

Acquisition[edit]

There are two ways to acquire the psycast Blinding pulse:

  1. Upon reaching psylink level 2, a random psycast of level 2 is granted regardless of how this level up is achieved. This won't apply if the psycaster already knew one or more level 2 psycast.
  2. Blinding pulse can also be acquired from a psytrainer naming it. See the psytrainer page for further details.
