dunno if its posted here or not, but it seems to work for me and people i've told:

this is just a cheap workaround, but instead of doing that loot it first or whatever you do, just go into options before you log in (where you pick what race models and stuff) and turn off dynamic lighting or whatever its called (theres only 1 lighting option)

*edit*

this will give you max stats for your drachnid candle all the time

I think he means if you turn off the lighting that the Drachnid Candle charm will have max stats. Cause it gets more stats the few light items you have or something like that.
 
If this actually works, wouldn't that mean that how much light is around you is determined client side...so is therefore crackable?

yes, it is.
 
I'm still not understanding.. My candle has been 190 hp and mana since I got it and I have had dynamic lighting on all along. Does it go higher?
 
No. But the point is that some people have light sources around them, like, say, skeleton illusion for necromancers, which take away stats from the candle. This seems to be a way aroung that.
 
Ok, I dont get why people are always screaming

"this will get nerfed cause someone posted it here"

The whole point of this site is to share exploits and such... if you dont like it, dont pay to belong... if you do then use the stuff untill it does get nerfed. Posting that its gonna get nerfed is in now way helpfull or conducive to the continuation of any of these threads.

Just a peeve of mine and it seems to be happening on almost every thread these days.
 
im pretty sure every 2.0 is a lightsource, i just notice a lot of people doing that useless trick, where if you loot your corpse and loot the charm first, then loot everything it bypasses it? something stupid like, that, which only works untill you zone
 
I carry tons of lightsources, use skelly illusions, I'm max stats on candle no matter what even with lighting on.... <shrugs> always seemmed broken to me

The candle can never be lit and despises any light but its own and will grant you more power the less light you carry.
 
It seems to recheck your light sources everytime you zone. Anyone know a way to block it from sending the info?
I've stripped naked zoned then put all my gear back on and had it max stats for that zone, but it is alittle annoying to do consistently.
 
Would be nice to know this info too, as my charm does the same...

This fetish becomes stronger as your situation grows darker. (Influenced by light sources and time of day.)

Is time of day client side?

I wouldnt think so. . .u know how certain mobs pop at certain times in gam? well I would think someone would have thought about something like this before if it could be done. . .I may be wrong though

Might be can block the item checking the daytime, but that sounds tougher.

I know when I'd zone with Drachnid Candle it would be max stats for a second then it would seem to take into account my equipment and drop in stats. It seems like it is possible to trick the candle into think I'm buck ass naked. Atleast stripping when I zone seems to work, so I can have max stats on raid targets.
 
okay the /dynamiclighting off command i think is it, the drachnid candle bases how much light you have off your client side, this is freaking old its been posted before when dod released, people just forgot about it cause we've moved on to better gear,

That's exactly what was posted firstly and was recently nerfed if I'm not mistaken.
 
it works for me... well did before the patch today...... so i dont know i'll update you guys when i log in.
 
Just checked. Doesnt work, and I cant find the piece of gear that has the light.

Any easy way to tell?

I don't know about you, but my Batskull Fetish I still use. It uses the same type of restrictions, and there isnt all that much thats better. I would still be interested in knowing if there was a workaround. then again, even the base stats on Batskull Fetish arent that bad!
