My current base had braizers and torches, no bueno. It's a 1/2 hr walk from one of the teleport points.


You can't tell exactly on the map, but the main town creates a circle of light around it so you can extrapolate a curve once you have an idea where the border is. There are two small towns West of Providence and the second one is a little bit into darkness to give you an estimate.

Yes. The light is circular.

If you look up at the Northern zonewall, you'll see that it starts to get darker much farther east than at the midway (North-South) point of the map. This is because the default state of the land is Darkness, but Providence projects Light in a radius.

So, for example, if you are all the way to the North of the map standing on the coastline, and go due west, you will begin encountering twilight rats and drain long before you would if you went due west from the Providence (the city, not server) coastline.

I haven't been on the northern edge of the map, but on the southern side one can reach darkness sailing along the coast some 359 or 360 minimaps from Providence, while the map ends at 397 minimaps. So the part of the southern coast covered by darkness is almost 40 minimaps long.
That gives out the radius BTW.

yes on the north end of the east coast you'll reach the god's barrier before you'll reach their dark parts.
I have neither the crayons nor the time to explain it to you.
