[QUOTE="jgsugden, post: 8401072, member: 2629"] I've not had a Warlock take this invocation that I can recall, but based upon the language:This line tells us that we can see through objects to a range of 30 feet. Objects within 30 feet do not block our line of sight. The next 2 parts establish the darkvision of 30' and the concentration requirement.Note that there is no range limitation on this statement explicitly. However, we can assume it was intended to apply to the 30' range because saying that you perceive objects as translucent with unlimited range would effectively negate the 30 range in the first sentence. While this vision is in place, you perceive objects as ghostly and transparent. That means you perceive that light can pass through them and things on the other side of them can be seen clearly - regardless of how far beyond them they are. I had not considered the implications of this before, but I have to agree that at the top of your tower example, you'd be able to see for miles. Essentially, you replace everything around you in a 30' radius with glass (lit with darkvision light). [/QUOTE]
