Each creature in your delivery can see fine detail at extreme distance for the duration: reading lips or fine print up to about a mile away, given line of sight.

Delivery restriction: no area deliveries unless modified.

Optional Modifiers

  • Greater Farsight (+2): Ignore all range penalties for the duration; on your critical success the detailed sight distance doubles.
  • Longglass (+1): Detailed sight reaches 2 miles.
  • Eagle Eye (+1): 1 level of Advantage on sight-based Perception checks.
  • Steady Aim (+1): Ignore the long-range Disadvantage on ranged attacks (other penalties still apply).
  • Mark Target (+1): Choose one creature or object the target can see; it ignores visual concealment from distance (fog, rain, smoke haze) when perceiving it (GM adjudicates).
  • Lingering Sight (+2): Cast it as a Chant; the duration becomes 1 stretch.
  • ★ Area Farsight (+1): You can use area deliveries, at double the delivery's Strain cost. [School Mastery, 5+ ranks]

Critical Success

Affected creatures also halve range penalties on ranged attacks and other range-affected abilities.
