Hello everyone! Here's my doubt.

When one follows tracks, his speed is normally halved. In order to keep her normal speed, one has to take a -5 penalty to her Survival checks. If one wants to double his speed while following tracks, the penalty becomes -20. Deadeye's Lore spell allows its caster to follow tracks at her normal speed without the normal -5 penalty.

So, I was wondering: if one casts Deadeye's Lore and wants to follow tracks at double her speed, does the penalty remain -20 or is it reduced?

By raw I'd say it doesn't change, allowing only to walk the normal speed without penalties, but it would make the spell a lot less valuable than allowing a reduced penalty while following tracks at double speed. To me, the flavour of this spell is the chance to cast it and say "You cannot escape from me!", then following the prey running like a mad hound! Just sayin'...
