== Description ==<br />
''A brass tube the length of your underarm. It has a small hole in one end covered by glass, and a similar but larger one on the other end.''<br />
<br />
A [[spyglass]] allows you to zoom in your view, increase your hover highlight distance, and providing you with a [[Wurm Universe|range measurement]]. It's useful for scouting the land, finding players or hunting targets, and measuring exact tile distances for archery. The maximum view range is 2000 metres (500 tiles).<br />
<br />
== Usage ==<br />
[[Activate]] the spyglass and right-click on a tile or [[item]] like the spyglass itself, and select '''Spy'''. A 30 second timer will begin while you scout the land, hitting {{key|Esc}} ([[Keybinds#Default_keybindings|Stop command]]) or moving while on foot will cancel the action.<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
The spyglass is a special item which was originally given out at Christmas 2006 to premium players at Newtown, and both the [[white light|white]] and [[black light]] altars on the [[Server types|Chaos]] server. They were lost due to the [[Wurmageddon]] in April 2007, but were given back after the reset as trinkets regardless of whether you had one or not.<br />
<br />
== Notes ==<br />
* Can not be [[nodrop|dropped]].<br />
* Spyglasses are made out of [[brass]], but they cannot be created or improved by players.<br />
* The 30 second action will not be canceled when embarked on a vehicle or animal, you have to use {{key|Esc}} (Stop command).<br />
