Actually, there is a way around it without having to houserule things.
Firstly, take 3 levels of Warlock. Gets you a 2nd level spell slot, learn Darkness, and at 2nd level, learn the Devil's Sight invocation. You'll be able to pop off Darkness twice a short rest (and once a day from Racial ability at level 5, iirc), and not be bothered by the effect at all. And, if you're a melee character, take Pact of the Blade, to boot (or not; pact of the tome is awesome, too). You'll also have Eldritch Blast, one of the best cantrips out there.
