[QUOTE="Lanefan, post: 8968378, member: 29398"] True; and here again 5e gives more to Wizards than do older editions. Even bullseye lanterns aren't great - they go through oil at a fair clip. [I]Light [/I]is a good substitute as a spell provided there's a limit on how many times you can cast it and-or casting it uses slots you might want for something else. But at-will [I]Light[/I] right at 1st level is a bit much. Yes, looting the foes of their supplies is a time-honoured tradition. :) Indeed, but I prefer they get a bit more bang for their buck when those spells are cast. Yep, that would be us. :) Things like Wands of Wonder, Bags of Beans, Decks of Many Things - unless playing a very cautious or very Lawful character at the time, our lot line up for stuff like this! And Wands of Wonder can be used by anyone (or they could in 1e, anyway), meaning even a dumb Fighter can get in on the fun. [/QUOTE]
