also another factor is khopesh is not a good weapon to have radiance on since it crits less than a rapier. in my experience, i do not think i ever saw a radiance khopesh being crafted. strength base khopesh weilding rogues are more likely to have mineral 2 instead or even lightning strike

ps i dun think raid bosses can be blinded but i could be wrong here
I have seen several radiance khopeshs crafted, I belive Katsumi or Serpentwave was the first to craft a radiance wepon.

You are right, raid bosses are immune ti the blind effect but can still be hit be the light dmg and sneak attack dmg.
