Sources

• Light is normally found on helmets.
• Monks start with an orb of light, and orbs of light can very rarely be found in vaults.
• Eos does not have the light ego itself, but also emits a halo.

Strategy

• Light can act as a form of see invisible, but remember that the halo will also impact your invisibility.
• The halo's to-hit boost not only helps you, but your allies (summons, derived undead, etc.) too. As monsters don't have the greatest accuracy, using light can really help your allies' damage output.
