Notes[]
- This does not affect enemies with more than 99% DR such as Sepulcher and adult Eidolon Wyrms.
- Since a player is 2 tiles wide and just under 3 tiles tall and the candle buffs a 120x86 area, covering a large area with no gaps can be done by placing candles every 243 blocks horizontally and 176 blocks vertically.
- Covering just a single horizontal stretch (for instance, on a skybridge) would take 35 candles on a large world, 26 on a medium world, and 17 on a small world.
- Unlike the Water and Peace Candles, it cannot be held by the player and is required to be placed down in order to receive its effects.
- A placed candle will be dropped if it comes in contact with lava (but not water or honey).
