Small comment on locate object: locating items that people tend to stockpile will be highly annoying; things such as eggs, baboos, resources, crafted items, all are things that people tend to store hundreds of in a cit and then idle in that cit, so anyone scanning for those things will always be spammed out by people who sit in their homes on top of their massive stockpiles. I suggest raising the max to at least 25 per fec.

Example: Playing in epics and hunting pet eggs. C locate egg will only ever give me whatever lists are loaded first. If we have a bunch of players online with massive stocks of pet eggs idling in their cits, I'll have no chance of seeing what's loaded in my dungeon because the max is only 120 items. I can give you two or three cits that contain at least that many eggs on their own.

I urge you to raise the max to something more in the range of 300-500. Unless you plan on excluding items in cits from being affected by this spell, 120 is far too low a max to stick us with.

Perhaps another idea: Give Locate Object a maximum reach of current area. Let us add Aya runes in order to give global reach, and raise the max to 512.
