[QUOTE="Ancalagon, post: 6845059, member: 23"] I knew of the online tools because someone used levitate in our game to scout around (ie see further) and I knew what they were looking for was huge (but hidden by the tree line). This wasn't D&D (but whatever) but it turns out that levitation is *really useful* for visual scouting. Normally you can see about 5 km. Here is how the sight radius goes up with every 10 meters: 10M 11 km 20M 16 km 30M 20 km 40M 23 km Edit: Even if at 23 km you can't see things like that pesky goblin who stole all your gold, you can see a lot of very useful things - like where major terrain features are, rivers, towns, fields etc etc. Or an incoming army. In fact, the more I think about it, the more Levitation is freaking awesome. For scouting, for accurate cartography, for military commanders... [/QUOTE]
