Incorrect. In situations of partial darkness, keen eyes or enhanced perception will offset the
perception penalties for darkness, but have no effect on the
combat penalties for darkness (-darkness to hit).
I would probably allow Cosmic (+50%) to have keen vision able to offset vision penalties to combat (this would include obscurement as well as darkness).
