Qeynos/ Surefall - Lightsources/ Bags

[drdrakes]

As a Druid I have the ability to summon a lightsource, are the higher level versions much better?

Are fire beetle eyes or other easily found items better than the candle or summoned stone?

How about quests that provide or reward containers?

Greater lightsource is about as classic as it gets. You have to sacrifice a bag slot, but it's totally worth it and will be fine right up to level 50(+)

Pro Tip- Ask a 16 mage for a heatstone or a 39 mage for a coldstone. They go in the ammo slot.

Heatstone is PRIMARY/SECONDARY/NECK unfortunately. Whole reason i bailed on an Erudite Mage. didn't want to give up a neck slot.

True for Heatstone. But Coldstone gives Ultravision at level 29 and can be equipped in the ammo slot. No reason your Erudite dreams must end.

Also you probably aren't going to have a neck slot worth a shit on Green until well past level 29, and even if you did a Mage barely benefits from stat gear anyway. So wear your Heatsone with pride then at 29 summon Coldstones for everyone's ammo slot for the rest of your Mage career.

In my opinion, the level 1 druid spell lightsource is about equal to a fire beetle eye; the fire beetle eye is readily available in the newbie yard or off a vendor (and cheaper than the spell). A lightstone is much better than a fire beetle eye, and a greater lightstone slightly better than a regular one. Basically, loot or buy a lightstone asap.

The advantage to the spell is that if you need the inventory slot you can just destroy it and resummon later after you sell that cracked staff you spotted when your inventory was full.

Alas! Neither of us gets the cracked staff. Zodium sees it first with his lantern.

Oh, forgot container... you get one in Qeynos by starting the tax collection quest. Dont finish the quest, just keep the container.
