Human Night Vision
 

This has probably been discussed but I was unable to find a thread about it.

Is there any way for a human monk to get better vision other then from turning up the gamma on your screen.

Like are there any clicky items or on equip items that give something like ultravision without having another character cast it on you?

Thanks for any help.

There are a few items.

Greater Light-stone
Fire-beetle eye

And I am sure there are many more. Just make sure you leave it in one of your main inventory spots. Not inside a bag.

Get Wu's Gauntlets, I have zero problems seeing with them on.

That must be why they require a Greater Lightstone to make.

Night vision is a problem? I remember stumbling around in the dark in the old days, good intense atmosphere, but here everything is perfectly visible at all times of day. Around 7-8 oclock game time I see a new color filter pop in/out of existence, but the general light level never changes, regardless of race. Always figured it was a quirk of p99/the titanium client...

Its funny because P1999 is no where as dark as classic clients were from 1999-2001. You could see almost NOTHING as a human at night.

i agree, since they changed vision in the client back in 2002 or so, infra/ultra vision become useless ability.

Remember that tunnel that goes from EverFrost to Black Burrow? It was IMPOSSIBLE to navigate it as human/barbarian even with candle or fire beetle eye even in day time. You had to have light stone to be able to determine where to turn.
Now days you can go through it without any light sources easily.

Qeynos Hills at night was like a Plane of Nightmares to me :)
I used to spend entire night time siting at Millers house waiting for sun to come up, too afraid to go out, as I would get lost very very quickly and run into a rabid grizzly or a skeleton :)


As much as I hated being blind barbarian in EF and Erudite in Tox (specially during rain!!!), i sort of miss that "feature" - it gave infra/ultra a lot more worth

I'm glad I'm not the only one that noticed this. Back in '99 one of my first characters on live was a Barbarian Shaman and it was impossible to get back to Blackburrow at night if you died because it was pitch black.

There were no lightstones available around Halas either and no one was high enough level to port so very few non-Barbarians ever visited Everfrost.

I also had a human ranger and that was nearly as bad in EC.

The darkness at night is fine, in 99 couldn't see sheet. I remember well up into velious you couldn't see. Ring of the Frozen flame was my most prized drop >>>> over my dragon gear.
