How do warm lights suck? If I'm exploring and have to go to town less to heal (solo player) then it speeds me up.


#1 You have to find one when you need one (most of the times you come across them when you just leveled up or you run over 2 or more in a row when your hit points are maxed).
#2 They replace a square that maybe more helpful, like an Evil Presence, or for some, and Emblem for a Glyph that may give you +X% More Experience (which also makes your run faster by leveling your character.) Maybe a TC that has shrines, or a decent wellable item etc.

Note: Warm Lights may come in handy, especially if the catacomb you create(enter) has more than two warm lights and the +50% more Warm Lights give you a third Warm Light in that catacomb... yup, like that really makes your run faster... so hopefully there are 10 warm lights and the +50% gives you another 5 Warm lights which reduces the chance(s) of other things Like EPs, TCs, Emblems or 1 or more Encounters that may drop a shrine or two.

My comment was about items being more useful to making your run faster. :D

Still haven't found a TD with a Well in it for testing, this would be good to come across at a later stage. Wonder what the next Event will provide us.

Found a well down 2 tds. No difference in the drops, all shit.

Also, warm lights are more often helpful than the drops that come from any TC or EP as most drops are absolute dog shit.

I generally find that a couple shrines are far superior to a single warm light without a warm light effectiveness mod going.

Interesting about the TD + Well... thanks, needs more testing.

Anyway... I created a game (full life), moved and WOOT Warm Light within a minute, woot, got another Warm Light, even after I leveled up within the next minute... so damn useful aye... just in case you don't believe me, here is an img: https://prnt.sc/vBSbxFAERHNP

Anyway, if you really want Warm Lights to be useful, never shrine your hit points to full, just in case your next unexplored square maybe (keywording: maybe) a Warm Light... yay, it is now useful. Now, when you are trying to complete a catacomb for the Map at the end, you have to backtrack a lot, so you are moving over Explored squares and there are NO Warm lights ... ouch, not so useful.

It is perception, Warm Lights may come in handy... it would be more handy if you can "store" up Warm Lights like a Comfrey / Fish to use later on. Maybe a character class like a Guardian or Paladin has this INNATE feature (like a Monk, Ninja or Rogue who can identify TDs).

Yup, I mentioned this as a suggestion years ago... maybe something to that effect could be introduced to the game to make Warm Lights better utilized.

Yeah each shrine gives min 5%health, 10%mana, so 10 of any tier item will fill you up for mana, so just heal up before shrining.
