    Late to the Novus party...

    i know it's an old topic but I'm trying to farm light for my Novus upgrade. If anyone else is doing so, please comment if you know where to find some decent light at. Please and thanks.

    getting a small group together and spamming garuda and other hard primals was a solid way to do it back in the day. Fights last like 3 minutes.

    There are higher grades of light. WoD brought newborn star sometimes... but its an hour of time. In the time to reward spectrum HM primals were the way to go.

    Better than bright requires much longer sorts of runs. 24 man raids give blinding (I think) with newborn star appearing rarely, and dungeons give a bit more than primals, but obviously primals are the way to go if you're just after light. Back when it was current, sure you'd be doing ST or WoD anyway and loads of dungeons so the light was almost extra (well...almost), but currently you'd be wasting your time on anything but HM primals, or possibly FATES.

    They are making changes such that you can gain light from undersized dungeon runs (starting with 3.1), though I can't imagine that would be very worthwhile. Still, a change of pace I suppose.

    Undersized dungeon parties would be ok to farm light if it gave decent light. I'd solo a low level dungeon for some newborn star light all day
