So, a friend and I were having a friendly chat, and the topic of eyepatches came up. She reminded me of an oddity that I had overlooked when 3.2 came out. Thancred, during the brief time we see him impersonating an imperial guard, lacks his new eye patch.

That... doesn't seem right, especially since, when he takes off his helmet, he is the same Thancred we have always known. His eye isn't missing, it isn't scarred or damaged... he's just wearing an eyepatch to look cool?!

He's a Rogue, shouldn't harming his depth perception be the last thing he would want to do? Especially now that he lacks the ability to use aether to augment his abilities. So... what's the deal, SE? Is Thancred blind in one eye and you were too lazy to give him a unique face texture or at least odd eyes with his injured eye being white like Y'shtola's are now? Or is he not blind at all and he's just being "cool," and making himself a worse combatant while he is at it?
