    Possible piece of the Salvage puzzle?

    In all the time I've spent reading about peoples' experiences in Salvage, and in the runs I have done, I have never heard about or noticed this little piece of information. I'm wondering what you guys might make of this ... it's worth thinking about, as it may be a key factor in determining what ramparts in Bhaflau can produce NM's, or possibly they could be a piece of the Zhayolm 35's puzzle, or who knows what else.

    There's a set of "lights" above each Salvage entrance. Again, I've never read anything about them nor have I noticed them myself, but they might be worth keeping an eye on in the future; maybe note with "light" is lit before your runs and compare that to your drops, etc.

    Discuss. Think this could actually be something?

    If Silver Seas and Zhayolm lights were swapped I would just say it's the positioning of the porter on the main map. But idk.

    They move? I always thought the light was staying at the same place. If they do, then it probably mean something.

    I thought the same thing the moment I hit the post button, but I'm 100% sure I didn't mix up the pics.

    I'm most interested in finding out of either A) the lights change position over time, or B) if the lights are in different positions on other servers.

    I'll post here too~

    Each circle represents a different Candescence. I thought this was already known? Each zone and even the one in Al'Zhabi light up different, maybe even the one in Nyzul or the 6th circle was the Gordeus. I forget the whole thing but each circel if just a different zone I believe.

    I remember a topic about this when Taj hacked in Nyzul and the Remnants.

    Actually if u super impose it on a map, yea it's just it's location.

    I believe the center one should be lit up for Nyzul.

    You are correct, sir.

    And this whole light thing has been discovered when salvage was introduced. I believe I read about it bhflau thread I or somewhere.

    Spoiler: show

    The undersea ruins are the parts of alexander.

    Arrapago & Zahyolm = same or nearly same floor layout
    Silver Sea & Bhaflau = same or nearly same floor layout

    best to think about them as "arms and legs". Arrapago & Zahyolm are much taller (floor wise) then Silver Sea & Bhaflau.

    Nyzul isle is the "body" (aka center dot lit)

    The "head" is atop; It is known that the gordius is the "brain" for alexander.
    Currently there is either A) no such room/location which was dedicated for the brain untill it was moved to Whitegate or B) this is a yet undiscovered location (for players)
