So, I mostly play warrior, necro, and engi.

none of these classes can wield torches. I hate exploring caves without use of a torch. I have a mesmer at 30 and tunnels and caves are so much more fun to enjoy with a torch.

looking at http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Light_source, I see that there are some items that may give illumination in caves. I don’t think the wiki is complete, so I was wondering if there are any other options that are not recorded here that the community knows of?

also, I think anet should make torches a universal offhand weapon for all professions.

Anywhere that’s dark enough that you need an extra light source conveniently provides bundle torches. The ones i can think of are obsidian sanctum dark room (torches by the entrance to the dark cave, as well as things to light on fire to light up the room) the mine in dry top (torches on the right as you enter, by the cart tracks) and the JP in lion’s arch (torch is on the floor to the right, Captain weyandt’s ghost will complain when you find it.) and that one new-ish temple where the torches are the central mechanic you need to complete the JPS and kill the enemies there.

The ones in sanctum and the mine can light a fire on the floor and be dropped if you need to get your real weapons out to fight, or you can try using them as wearpons to burn your enemies to death.

Yeah, I know about environmental torches. I do use them when available. Its the lesser known tunnels and cave systems that though they aren’t black, light really helps to see what is going on in them.

speaking of environmental torches, I heard that there was some charr vendor that sold torches???

I love my Jormag’s Breath
I’m pretty sure that list is complete.
