Ultravision doesn't seem to work. We were in the goblin camp, a bard casted darkness on goblins, I used a charge from the lesser explorer helm and went in, but goblins still got 50% concealment.
Not to mention how the archers kept shooting from within the darkness, even if they were not supposed to see anything... :roll:

Darkness was being abused. It was then changed.

- Ultravision no longer sees through Darkness.
They can still shoot you because instead of dropping a pure globe of darkness around you, what you are doing in increasing the shadows in the area until its somewhat harder to locate -exactly- where your enemy is. You can still see them in Darkness.
So this is not a bug. What is a Issue however, is the following:
