Piercing Gaze allows the caster to attempt to peer into, behind, or under all sorts of containers.
There are several factors that contribute to the spell's success, which includes: Perception skill ranks, Minor Elemental spell ranks, Intuition bonus, Logic bonus, and the spell Disarm Enhancement, which also takes Aura into account.
Be warned, many containers have a natural resistance to the spell due to the nature of the way the container was created or from the material it was created from, such as mithril or being enruned.
The spell of Piercing Gaze can trigger Glyph traps, which warp the caster to an area which can be time intensive to escape. Triggering this trap does not physically harm the caster, or affect any other characters in the room. However, the glyph trap rift will eventually drain health, mana, and spirit, and has the potential to drop you out into a hunting area that may be dangerous. No other traps can be triggered by the casting of this spell.
Lore Benefit
Training in Elemental Lore, Water will provide a chance of skill bonus/4 to show Unlock (407) and Disarm (408) success messaging (the messaging for Disarm to work will only be displayed if the caster has discovered the trap).
