"Perfidio may burn 1 blood to untap and attempt to block a (D) action
that targets a location you control."

Just to clarify, this is not limited to once per action, correct?

That is, if Perfidio uses his ability, and the acting minion plays
Form of Mist or Mirror Image to continue the action, can he burn a
blood to untap and attempt to block again?

Correct.

So if Perfidio is equipped with a Starshell Grenade Launcher, he can
effectively reduce the stealth of an action directed at one of your
locations by X at a cost of X blood... (he fails to block, taps the SGL,
burns a blood to untap and attempt to block again. more stealth is
added, and he repeats). Sounds like fun. :)

Card text lacks "during X do Y" template.

The word "during" does not appear in the text.

"designer intent" is probably the issue.

Carpe noctem.
