Summary0008849: Flash of Light is usually available before Fire Flare
DescriptionFlash of Light requires access to a town and ocean (although shallows are better).

Fire Flare requires sunstone, which can only be unlocked at L3.

This seems backwards, because Fire Flare is kind of useless once you have Flash of Light.

Agreed. Flash of light is kind of the 'end all' light spell.

If you have it, there is literally no reason to ever use Light Snake (Which, in itself can be greatly improved ( http://www.arcengames.com/mantisbt/view.php?id=7802 )), Fire Flare or that lesser moon lamp spell whose name I can't even remember. o.o;;

Ball of Light

I use Light Snake for map revealing purposes occasionally if I have doubts about fully entering a room/area to see if there is anything worthwhile first like doorway/building or stash items. However it's utility in this matter is fairly limited by the geometry of the area and its movement speed.
