Best way to light up my base at night

[I'm sorry... Goodbye]

I have an invicible cliff base (truly invincible now thanks to the update that makes you slide down cliffs) And I want to light up my base, to show the cannibals that I'm not afraid of them, and also cause I can't see anything at night. At the moment I've been using skull candles because they light up your base, don't need fuel and are constantly on. However, I was wondering if theres a better way, one that doesn't need constant replacing, one that will keep my base lit at night without the need for fuel. Standing fires don't seem all that good, so is skull torches the best way to light up your base at night?

yeah, sadly the only two options are skull lamps and skull torches. Otherwise, try a few bon fires. That will be sure to give off plenty of light and attract attention from the cannibals.

If you put a lot of candles, it'll end up making your base very lit up, but I don't think it'll attract cannibals. Bonfires are very good, they don't need much fuel

I usually stick flares in my catapults holders, spread around my base.The things have been burning for nigh on 10-12 patches.Adds a nice large lit area ;)

Yes.

can confirm the catapult flares works and is brighter but the red hue is a bit bad personally... still asthetically i'd had to say torches are better

if you want more light permanently and don't mind the red the catapult is the way
