Eye's of the Hawk

First crafted by bandit mages to aid in ridding those who could challenge raiders in a fair fight, copies of these small crystal lenses have seen use throughout the central and eastern Flanaess for more than two hundred years. Seldom have more than a few sets been seen together, but there is a legend that one particularly successful bandit named Madrien of Karzt had a full dozen pairs given to his most highly prized archers. Stories say those twelve could slay any man in the space of a heartbeat. Legend also seem to hint that is how Madrien might have met his end.

Each pair of these lenses is carefully carved from purest crystal, shaped and polished so that they are just small enough to rest on a human eye. Each lens is marked by a small pale blue cross centered in a diamond in the middle of the lens. Their magic makes ranged attacks into melee safer. If the wearer lacks the feat Precise Shot it bestows it on her. If she already does, then the lenses simply provide a +2 circumstance bonus on all ranged attacks into a melee combat. Both lenses must be worn for the magic to be effective.

Nice.

Hey, I just realized that when you instituded the house rule prices, you reduced the treasure awards by about ten-fold.
