Gear that doubles as a lightsource
 
Not sure if this has been discussed before, if so I couldn't find it.

I'm looking for suggestions for gear that has the "greater lightstone effect". Looking for suggestions more towards the higher end that are also droppable, but feel free to post any items you know.

A few examples of gear that acts as a greater lightsource

Crown of King Tranix (head)
Split Paw Hide Mask (face)
Preserved Split Paw Eye (range)
Charred Guardian Shield (Secondary)

All of my toons have access to ultravision through illusions or spells, but I still like the glow of a lightstone and am looking for an alternative to occupying an inventory slot.



Side note: Please spare me the "p99 night vision isn't classic!"

Iksar Berserker Club - 1hb primary / secondary = not High end but all I could think of this early

Blazing armor from zordak (multiple slots). Or the arms at least

Soulfire in inventory is a pretty nice lightsource

Some of those are probably only lesser or standard lightsources, not greater.

Lodizal Shell Shield = lesser lightsource
Torch/Lanterns = standard lightsource
Preserved Split Paw Eye = standard lightsource
Charred Guardian Shield = standard lightsource
Ornate Velium Pendant = greater lightsource

Also, Crown of King Tranix isn't a lightsource, it just gives you infravision. On P99 I actually prefer standard lightsources since vision isn't much of an issue - standard lightsources look warmer and more natural, greater looks like a halogen light. There's also not much of a difference in brightness between the two on P99 - greater is brighter but the difference on P99 is unnoticeable. If you don't have improved sight like infravision/ultravision then you probably want greater.

Light emitters probably aren't classic on P99 too - for example, a Fire Beetle Eye is about the same brightness as a Lodi Shield, but the light it produces is warmer and more natural. Lodi Shield's light looks like a lesser version of the Greater Lightstone's halogen-like effect. I don't really remember there being different qualities of lightsources like that on live, but I could be wrong.

Velum Rond Shield is pretty and sparkly and glow too I think. I dunno if it is greater or lesser, but it sure do look fantastic ^^

Pretty sure what I listed are all greater lightsources. Split paw eye is one I'm unsure of, but splitpaw mask is definitely greater lightsource so seems likely the Eye would be as well. I've tested by equipping the piece of gear, followed by putting greater lightstone in inventory to see if there is a change in light emitted, although it's been quite a while so I may be remembering wrong.

Crown of King Tranix I've never owned but it's wiki page specifically says "Crown of King Tranix is a greater light source". Can anyone confirm it isn't a lightsource along with the infravision?

Thanks for the suggestions so far guys. Blazing Vambraces is one I didn't realize was a lightsource and is a perfect example of what I was looking for (besides being no drop)

One I forgot, Unicorn Horn for bards is a lightsource if it's equipped or in inventory. I think it's a greater lightsource but would have to double check.
