Specifics

Darkvision is the extraordinary ability to see with no light source at all, out to a range specified for the creature.

Darkvision is black and white only (colors cannot be discerned). It does not allow characters to see anything that they could not see otherwise -- invisible objects are still invisible, and illusions are still visible as what they seem to be. Likewise, darkvision subjects a creature to gaze attacks normally.

The presence of light does not spoil darkvision. If a character has darkvision with a 60-foot range, and he stands within a 20-foot radius of light, the character can see normally in the light, and 40 feet beyond the light because of his darkvision.

Use
Action Mode

Special: A Giant spider animal companion will receive Darkvision for free at 1st level.

Gameplay notes[]

  • As of patch 1.10, both Darkvision and Low-Light Vision are an action mode that can be toggled.
  • This feat is bugged. It will only work if given by default from a racial or class feat. Items and spells that claim to give Darkvision will not actually give anything.
  • It should be noted some creatures get their expected racial traits from the always equipped "creature properties" item. If a creature's intended Darkvision is gained through such an item, it will not work.
