Request / Question : Lighting

So… I have a question or two for the people making decor items.

1.) Are we going to get candles. More so the single candles/holder such as in the Arcantina on the tables. I have my table needing candles but right now I am using Bradensbrook Smoke Lantern. Before that I had shrank down Wrought Iron Floor Lamps and used them, but they didn’t have the look I wanted. Nor did the Ornate Silvermoon Candelabra.

2.) Why are the Lampposts/Streetlights marked as “indoor only”? I wanted to put a lamppost near my outhouses. No real light source like that appears to be available outside.

Edit* looks like I found one but not one I would use… Rootlight Lamppost shows outdoor use

I can answer your second question: Blizz restricted lights to indoor-only after people in alpha crashed servers by putting too many lights on top of each other outside. They said in a blue post (or a tweet?) a couple weeks ago that they are looking at adding a work-around like “two lights can’t be placed within 10ft of each other outside” or something like that, but right now they’re worried that anyone who has a lower-end PC will get DC’d if there’s too much going on in people’s yards.

I haven’t found the actual post, but someone linked the blue post in this thread here:

When do we get exterior lighting? - Community / Housing - World of Warcraft Forums

Enjoy :smiley:

Thanks! Hadn’t seen that.

I count eight different kinds of candles in my inventory right now: Zaralek Candles, Sintallow Candles, Small Legion Candle, Large Legion Candle, Blightfire Candle, Tirisgarde Candle, City Wanderer’s Candle (this is the one you probably want), and Tusked Candle Holder.

I will check out the City Wanderer’s Candle. Can’t say that I have seen it, but if it is like the single candle holder in Arcantina… I will need to get it. Thanks!

** Just checked that candle out and sadly it is not the type I am looking for. That one is more of a handheld carry candle.

A lot of my Candle issues would be solved if they released several sizes of white candle and made them able to be dyed.

This would be ideal.
