Luminance Specific Changes:
We have access to ALL SEER PATHS:
- This means:
- Your first priority is getting +10 Aura of Worlds from Nalicana in Asheron's Castle. Once you have that, you want to get the free +1 from the small shade next to her. This brings you to +11 Worlds
(You can do the other Nalicana auras at this time, or later, order wise)
- Then:
- I would suggest starting with Shade of Lady Adja, then going to all other Seers. Complete all of these.
- Next:
- Adventurer's Haven - Ancient Yalani Shade - An additional +10 Aura of Worlds. +10 DR(2x5) and Damage(2x5)
After Adventurer's Haven, and 400+ @ Fort Tethana 25m, another +10 Worlds, +1 25m for 10 DR/D, +2 each After Teth, and 500+ @ Ascension Fortress 50m, another +10Worlds(+1 each) 50m, another +10 DR/D(+2 each) Additional Infinite Luminance Auras may be purchased in Asheron's Castle:
