Third Eye Sense question

[Teneb]

The Third Eye Sense entry in the Magic Item Compendium indicates that spells/powers can't be cast/manifested through it. However, it allows a character (a divine mind in my campaign's case) to "see" somewhere without necessarily having line of sight. An example would be they could see and hear behind a closed door. Here's the question: could the DivM manifest an Astral Construct on the other side of a door? The Third Eye gives him line of sight and because it's behind a door he's standing next to, it's well within the range of the power.

I'm leaning towards allowing it since he has line of sight (effectively). I wouldn't allow damaging powers because he doesn't have line of effect. I'm not entirely certain those last two made sense, but I understand what I'm talking about Thoughts from my esteemed colleagues?

Line of sight isn't enough: you need line of effect, even if you're not manifesting a damaging power, since the astral construct is a spell's effect:

A line of effect is a straight, unblocked path that indicates what a spell can affect. A line of effect is canceled by a solid barrier. It’s like line of sight for ranged weapons, except that it’s not blocked by fog, darkness, and other factors that limit normal sight.

You must have a clear line of effect to any target that you cast a spell on or to any space in which you wish to create an effect. You must have a clear line of effect to the point of origin of any spell you cast.

Makes sense to me. Thanks for the assist!
