Blind mechanics with unavoidable attacks and raid bosses

Blind isn't really a common thing I come across with only 3 character who can cause it. 1 is out of my reach and the other two not typically used in raids (or so I think). So really I have 3 questions.

1) can you actually blind a raid boss?
2) blind does not affect unavoidable attacks, right? So, if you blind a character who then uses an unavoidable attack, it should not be consumed?
3) If one is the attacker is blinded and the defender has foresight, which is consumed first?

    1. Yes as that is one way to save yourself in the Acklay mission just before his AOE.
    2. Unavoidable attacks do not interact with evade at all. Therefore if a unit uses an unavoidable attack while Blinded, it will not consume Blind because the expiration condition for Blind was not met. (taken from Missions kit reveal)
    3. Profit

    Sorry about 3, not sure :(

    Edit. Reread and realized my error. Not 100% sure about 1, but I'm guessing Acklay is treated like a raid boss.
  • I'll just add to the above post to the above post for number 2; you can still have a successful attack even when blinded, as well. I've had a blinded malak make a successful attack when I solo Carth squads. But it won't consume the blind until he misses.

    Yup, I think that will only happen if the character is stunned as you can't evade at all when you are stunned, therefore the blind is not consumed.

    i see question 2 all the time when fighting against vader's ship in fleet. his basic is unavoidable, and i regularly get blind on him when reinforcing with vulture droid. his next turn his attack hits the target and blind is not consumed on the attack.
    as for the blind/foresight question, that's a good one. never thought about it or seen it come up in battle before. looking at their descriptions, they do the same thing so there's not a way to tell from them alone.
    for raid bosses, not sure off hand. if you can, it would depend on the tenacity the boss has as normal.
