[QUOTE="Stalker0, post: 514578, member: 5889"] This is a problem I've also had to deal with. Low-lights description says that they see as well in moonlight as they do in daylight. So you don't apply any penalties to them in moonlight for either spot checks or miss chances. In starlight, give them a 10% miss chance for moderate darkness. A character with darkvision wouldn't get any penalties to vision within 60ft. Past that, do just what you would do for humans. Give 10% for moonlight, and from 20-40% for starlight (I personally think 40 is a little much, but that's just me). So there are situations where low-light is better than darkvision:) Also, consider the radius of torches and light spells as daylight for the purposes of spot dcs and miss chances, believe me it will make your life a lot easier.
