So, we all know about the enhanced lights you get from Ephemeral mobs. On wiki I've seen some articles now that say they give more or less depending on their level. Dunno how much truth there is to that, but anyways...I went to Highlands with 113 minutes in hopes to farm some good PDT Dark Rings. I didn't know how many Ephemeral I should kill with amber light but I figured I'd just keep killing til a Gold Chest dropped and I'd judge the amount of light by the range of the puzzle (11-96, etc). I ended up killing like 10 or so with Amber light and then just decided to start building pearl on some mobs to get a Gold Chest. First chest I got was Big and maxed range, amber was definitely capped.
My question is, did I really need to kill 10 or so of them or could I have killed only 3 or 4 for capped amber?
P.S Got a Dark Ring with -4% PDT, woot.
