I have tried my best to distribute these blinding
resistances not at random, but in reasonable
and consistent ways:
Dragons and demons are now mostly immune to blinding.
IMO they have such omnipotent senses that merely
blinding their eyes doesn't help. Lesser forms of
these creatures don't have full immunity though.
The undead are well resistant to blinding as they
don't have biological eyes, which makes it harder to blind them.
Only few of them are totally immune however.
Angels are also well resistant to blinding. Being
minions of Valriel they have experience with blinding
"techniques" and thus know how to protect against it.
Also immune to blinding are creatures which just don't
have any eyes. E.g. giant worms, slimes and crawling chaos.
All humaniod monsters, including the orcish and trollish
races, remain without blinding resistance.
Most low-level monsters generally have either low or no
blinding resistance (as long as they have eyes).
Extremely vulnerable to blinding are one-eyed creatures:
Cyclopses, dreads and beholders.
[Sidenote: I have reduced cyclops experience from 400000
to 250000 which I think is still more than enough.]

in pupland monsters. As maintainer of the pupland set I
hope it is okay when I do this, have written on the
list about it too.
Some monsters just need those levels to be able to
hit and damage high level players.
Evil Masters are a somewhat special case:
I have moved most all attributes out of the map into
the arches (So the arches contain the "real version").
The reason for this is I fear the fallback to
arch-values when these monsters happen to apply equipment.

was much higher than the actually difficulty the monster should be.

to the xpm images centered but not scaled.
The results are not too bad.
