« on: June 02, 2015, 12:05:16 PM »

Detect Evil
Detect Good
Detect Law

Arcane Sight and Greater Arcane Sight are basically just beefed up versions of Detect Magic.

Also Mindsight, and the Nemesis feat from the Book of Exalted Deeds.

Analyze Portal spell (SpC, and half a dozen other books)

Portal Sensitive feat (Underdark)

Detect Fire - Frostburn
Detect Weaponry - Cityscape
Detect Aberration - LoM & EbCS
Detect Dragonblood - Dragon Magic
Detect Ghost - Ghostwalk
Detect Vestige - ToM
Detect Taint - Oriental Adventures
Detect Crossroads - Magic of Faerun
Detect Metal & Minerals - Races of Faerun
Detect Dragonmark - MoE

- Note: OA, Magic of Faerun & Ghostwalk are technically 3.0.

- If you want more Detect spells, Pathfinder can help you expand this spell list.

This one is weird - Anathema (Champions of Ruin) sets up an effect on the target that allows some others to detect that the target is under an anathema spell.

Alarm - detects when a creature of tiny or larger size enters the warded area.  Is that the type of stuff you're after?

I don't know if this fits here or more appropriately could be called "scrying into the past", but Sensitivity to Psychic Impressions is an awesome power, either way.

Was that the ability used for the Time Traveling Abortion build?

I believe CoV has a feat called Detect Shadow Weave User.  Not a feat you really wanna blow a slot on.  But it fits your thread's theme - so there you go.
