There is one great use however. When it's summer, you may see the thermal indicator very high (but not highest early on). But if the thermometer is at the max temeperature (with no gaps), stuff can start to smolder, so have great vision. If it's a tiny bit lower, or it's raining, you're safe.
A friend of mine once suggested that it only turn on and consume fuel when someone walked into its radius. This would save its usage for situational light as needed and offer a cheap Glowcap alternative. As for me, I'd have that, but with Pure Horror overcharging it for more light and a higher insanity aura.
Pros : dark sword and night armour are free to use with no cons, literally infinite nightmare fuel, full mastery over fighting nightmare creature hordes Cons : can't see shit sometimes, there is always a random nightmare attacking me with the boss
It's radius is absurd, making for a good boss Arena light. also, being a wigfrid main I LOVE fighting shadow creatures. I use the aura to farm even more fuel for my maxwell teammates. (why, yes, I do eat raw meat and cooked monstear meat. I outheal everything with my natural vampirism and songs that boost it)
How to rework: 1. It should be infinite 2. Would Drain sanity faster 3. You would deal more damage to lunar aligned mobs if they stand in it's area 4. Would fix Nightmare Armor, Sword, Dreadstone stuff, ink blights stuff in it's area 5. Would Generate Nightmare Fuel Every 3 Days. And to balance that, it would be a drop from shadow pieces (Blueprint)
@@insertacoolnamehere4990 It's not too hard to maintain your survival in the darkness, like miner hats, lanterns etc. It's a problem mainly for a new player. But about boss "arenas" it would be absolutely pointless, because you would be assaulted by nightmares. And also there is already star/moon caller staff for this purposes. So the only way to abuse it's infinite light is too use bone helmet, which is droped by Ancient Fuelweaver, or by using bee queen crown. Ancient Fuelweaver is compatible to CC, and Bee Queen.. she is already a hard fight + her crown is not infinite/repairable and there is better ways to use it
OK, it’s really funny that when this video starts it looks like the person talking in this video is talking through the character because it looks like his mouth is moving with what is being said in the video. So my first thought was wow this guy is really good with editing
If you want light at almost zero cost. You can go under grown and catch the flying bulbus bugs or whatever they are called. They are in the underground moon biome. Catch a stack of 20 the bugs will fly around you providing light they cost plant foods and you can feed a stack of 20 just 1 to keep them full. So 1 flower off the ground will do. If the 3 flying around die some how you can grab 3 from your stack and drop them. They will follow you again. I catch stacks of 20 and keep them by my base. Anyone that joins just needs a net and can catch just 1 3 will follow them and now they have let everywhere they go. Or give them one and then drop 3. You can't bundle wrap them though. You auto drop anything you unwrap so if you try to bundle wrap 4 stacks to make sure you got them on deck your just going to drop them all when you pull them out. You can't feed them peppers they die and if you feed the stack they all die.
I once had a great use for it. Spended all the downtime , at base. Killing nightmare creatures. As wortox it was guarantead , but this made it faster. +unlike fire you can farm nightmare fuel lategame.
i had a friend use this on a boat in an all bosses speedrun after beating FW in winter to not heat up in spring on a a boat while looking for malbatross
Rain detector is actually good if you want to set up volt goat farm friend.. The suspicious dirt pile has rather better chance to spawn if you already are in the desert when the rain is coming.
I used to play a mod where you could slot a gem in it and it would do smth based off the gem(mushrooms growing for green). I forget which mod it was but honestly its a better use than its currect one
They were decent in DS singleplayer because of the effect when the nightmares in Ruins would drop fuel upon despawning, so you could basically farm near infinite amounts of it to the point where you didn't know what to do with it. But otherwise, they're just a waste of resources
the nightlight isn't bad at all... expensive yes... but when I play dst I often have so much nightmare fuel that I don't care what I use it for unless I end up going on a large binge crafting shadow items.
I suppose I'm the only one that unironically likes the thermometer. After all I tend to forget things with such ease that the whole "16 day math" is useless for me.
I shall stand in defense of the Night Light. It's not expensive unless you're super early in the game. 8 Gold? I raided a single graveyard for trinkets and I now have three stacks. Two nightmare fuel, and using nightmare fuel as, well, fuel? Nightmare fuel is easy to farm. You can plummet your sanity with green caps or wormholes to kill lots of hallucinations, and easily bring it back up with a Tam O Shanter or more green caps, surf and turf, etc. Maxwell and Willow have even easier methods of farming nightmare fuel. And one single red gem? I have 10 more in a chest, and can get more if I actually cared to do so. One nightmare fuel lasts far longer than 4 wood in a campfire, for bigger light radius. This makes it great for sailing at night, as obstacles and enemies suddenly appearing out of the dark can make sailing expensive and dangerous during the night. Its sanity aura is a joke. You have to practically use yourself as fuel to be close enough to lose sanity from it. Finally, we have the point that it doesn't emit heat or cold. But that's irrelevant unless you're in winter or summer, and I use it as purely for light anyway, in addition to my fire pit and endothermic fire pit. We can also narrow it down to only mattering in winter, as you can cool down easily by sticking a thermal stone in your icebox. Night Light is pog, in my opinion.
I guess it could be a sanity recovering aura with the bee queen helmet but at that point you have the resources to deal with sanity much more effectively. Edit: I tested it, it sucks.
I was looking for a way to light up my hound wave trap pen... this doesn't work with an Ice Flingomatic in range. It will turn it off as if it was fire. Freaking hate it.
As someone who switched to very long seasons after the first year, I disagree with the thermal thingymabobber. I understand this comes from a place of being a social outcast and loser…. That is all
Atleast Winona gives em a use now, respawn points if she is holding the fragile rose.

@@PolymerUa lol thats true but i love my piggyback
@@PolymerUa mannn use her pyro skills , use 2 embers for an orb that makes light for 1 day , similar to a star caller staff or whatever is called.
It would be really cool if the fuel just lasted a super long time. Like, 1 nightmare fuel for 2 or 3 days of light instead of 175 seconds of light

nightlight is only worth if you're playing with Wanda/Maxwell and you have a farm of nightmare fuel
Charlie can't grab the nightlight's embers
no the hands still show up lmao
I love the Night Light, but I'm afraid that is incorrect.
I once had a great use for it.

+unlike fire you can farm nightmare fuel lategame.
I use it in the ruins so i can keep low sanity and farm nightmare fuel that way, i find it very helpful
Welp, main purpose of nightmare fire is cheap source of light in ruins with abundance of nightmare fuel
you can use rainometer to see when will rain when you want to farm volt goats on spring on oasis desert
It’s good because it can light up the whole screen
I can see it being useful for a Lunar island base, but useless outside of that and Winona’s rework.
i had a friend use this on a boat in an all bosses speedrun after beating FW in winter to not heat up in spring on a a boat while looking for malbatross
When the fake laywer gets found out
Bottom text
It restores sanity for some characters
I use it because it looks cool
Boats. That's all I'm saying about this item. Boats.
That’s true! They do have a large light radius.
thats why i love Uncompromising mod
I wasted all my resources on that crap, I thought it was gonna last forever 😢
Its a way to waste nightmare fuel as willow.. But then the insanity net you more nightmare fuel again..
rainometer will let you predict rain, great for warly, wormwood and terrorize wx
Rain detector is actually good if you want to set up volt goat farm friend.. The suspicious dirt pile has rather better chance to spawn if you already are in the desert when the rain is coming.
wish rainometer would tell you when frog or glass rains would start, or acid rains if put in cave
They’re kinda nice for ruins bases as a Wendy player as you will have so much nightmare fuel you won’t know what to do with all of it.
I wish you could set the rainometer on a time schedule to predict if there will be rain.
Its a nightmare fuel investment
I pair this with dark flowers and the bee queen crown to regen sanity
In theory it could be sort of useful on moon island
I used to play a mod where you could slot a gem in it and it would do smth based off the gem(mushrooms growing for green). I forget which mod it was but honestly its a better use than its currect one
Lamb idol users stay winning
it is useful on lunar island to scare the gestalts
I hope they rework some of the structures like these, I don't think I ever built one
I like them for places you only go to occasionally and are big, like farms, chests, merm or pig house set up.

Me and my friends who are always insane and just fight all the shadow creatures with dark swords (we have over 40 stacks of nightmare fuel)
I use it...
for decoration...
Only with commands....
Then i forget it exists...
You still go pretty positive on nightmare fuel, and it's really not that expensive. Causes less lag than wormhole tunneling too.
i oftne use the night light because i always have too much nightmare fuel
Seems like it needs an update should be able to keep nightmare creatures away what would make you more useful
the nightlight isn't bad at all... expensive yes... but when I play dst I often have so much nightmare fuel that I don't care what I use it for unless I end up going on a large binge crafting shadow items.
night light is useful with new winona skill tree
Just reducing the cost to build it will make it better
If it could burn at least for 1 days with one nightmare fuel it will be more worth it
Counterpoint : It look cool
Also you can just farm nightmare fuel with wormholes
If you want to farm nightmare fuel just equip nightmare set of armor and sword at this point of the game
I like to use it for decoration if I have a Mod that gives infinite fuel
the thing os i use night light because i have wayyy too much nightmare fuel like 68 stacks of them on top of each other just dropped on ground
It’s very good in ruins minibases to be fair, although those are more viable in RoG
could MAYBE be useful if you want to make a base on the Lunar Island?
Forgot that to Summon the Charlie boss fight you have to keep 100 of these burning for 7 days???
Winona mains would disagree.

Edit: I tested it, it sucks.
as people say in coments, at least winona uses it ig
You get quiet a bit of nightmare fuel from it tho it's not a 1:1
Only reason I used it is I was abusing some mod character that easily obtained tons of nightmare fuel
What's different about the newspaper zombie, you ask?
You can use an attack from the fire staff to fuel it the same as a piece of nightmare fuel
DISCLAIMER: single player only
This would be great in dst lol
@@StankyTheKlown idk why they removed it, plus, the darn lamp only holds 4 bits of fuel
