I guess you could imagine the scale comparing it to the character size, i mean... 10x character size = more than 15 meters... If it's not a dwarf! :D I think i can intuitively have an ok feeling of the distance.
I would like some official or at least confident answer about this also, as with my current ranger, which is lv75, i am tempted to get that perk but that would mean 3 painful passive points to get and i would like to know if it would work with my gunslinger skill beforehand!
Has anyone tested? I will if not... i'll come back and post my observations when i get that perk!
(i think i'll test on another character, as it will be faster and also, i have all sorts of damage bonuses on the main char which would make the observation more unclear)
