D&D 5E What is Missing from 5E?

Not even close to continual light. Continual light was as bright as full daylight under AD&D - which meant it also could be used as a grow-lamp. Continual flame is only as bright as a torch. Not bright enough to grow crops. Not bright enough to blind.
And the Daylight spell doesn't last long enough for that purpose.
There's a reason I called it an underdark worldbuilding spell - it's a way to make the economy of the underdark not surface dependent.
Did a bit of research and what it seems is that continual light was essentially a permanent daylight spell. Since continual light is already missing from 3e... where daylight and continual flame spell appear, it seems that when 3e was made this spell was split into two different spells.
Also why do you need a separate spell in PHB for worldbuilding reasons? Don't get me wrong i am a fan of "everyday spells" but there is a limit how much of them are actually needed in rulebooks. Also not everything needs to be a spell that every wizard can use. Maybe the spellcasters of Underdark have learned how to make such powerful light spells, but there is absolutely no need for them to be available to every spellcaster.
If you want to have "continual dayflame" spell in your game, then its fine. Convert or homebrew it.
Very much this.. no real summons for a wizard conjurer until level 7? (spell level 4) blech!

What's "official"? Released by WotC? If so, then there are a few. You can get several of the play test adventures at dndclassics. But does it matter? Every edition has had plenty of good adventures from 3rd parties.
