Beyond the use of a Thief unit, there are two items with the ability to temporarily increase visibility on a fog of war map: the [[Torch (item)|Torch item]] and the [[Torch (staff)|Torch staff]]. When used, they provide an increase to the unit's field of vision, slowly decreasing back to normal at a rate of one tile per turn. In some games, the Torch staff instead casts a vision increase at a fixed spot within a certain casting range, independent of the casting unit. Most games will readily point this out and emphasise the value of bringing a thief unit to a fog of war map.<ref>{{Cite|Mark, put me in the lead, please.

In ''Radiant Dawn'', unlike in other games in the series, every class has a different vision range. For [[laguz]] classes, their vision range usually depends on whether or not they are [[Laguz transformation|shifted or unshifted]]. Notably, all bird tribe laguz have very poor vision in fog of war conditions as a trait of their species,<ref>{{Cite|I understand you beast tribes can see well even at night.
