I've read the entry on How far can you see? and found it useful for my D&D 5e campaign but I'd like some more details as to how this applies to various races, particularly Elves and Half-Elves in normal daylight. Does anyone know of a useful chart anywhere?
And I do mean normal light. There is a lot of talk about dark vision but I'm after normal sight. For example in a group comprised of a variety of races who would best be sent up to a crows nest on a ship to scout the surroundings?
Elves, at least in fiction, have incredible eyesight as shown by Legolas in the Lord of the Rings.
