Darkness

This article is about the debuff. For the painting, see Darkness (item).

Darkness is a debuff that decreases the player's light vision, which functions much like a reverse Night Owl buff, dimming rather than amplifying provided light.

Visually, the debuff causes the player to gain a blue tint, (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) and their eyes will appear to close for the debuff's duration.

The debuff can prevented by equipping the Blindfold or its derivatives.
