Light emitting accessory?

[Megatherius]

I'm still pretty early in the game but is there a light emitting accessory later in the game that can be equipped without occupying a hand?

I'm finding burial chamber exploration to be a pain with a torch as I have to choose between torch/weapon or weapon/shield+darkness. This also makes running away difficult too as running in the dark in such a cramped space is pretty much a death sentence. Now that I am typing this I guess I can always guard with the weapon itself but not the most ideal.

If such an item isn't implemented already, I feel like it would be a good addition to the craft table in future updates.

I believe there is a light emitting accessory at the merchant but it takes a helmet slot.
Haven't managed to find my merchant yet.

5 Islands explored so far :(

Oh great, guess I'll go searching then. Thanks.

I have my brightness set to a point where I don't really need a torch in dungeons. It helps when looking around for anything I might have missed after I've cleared out the enemies, but I find it pretty useless for dungeoneering.
But, if you really need it, just make sure that you have your shield equipped, as well. Then, at least you can block an initial strike before switching to your weapon.
Also, if you're having trouble with skeletons, use a club. They go down quick when you smash dem bones.

The merchant can sell you a headpiece called the Dverger Circlet, it lights up whatever direction you are facing with a blue-ish glow. Keep in mind, though, it does replace whatever helmet you are wearing, so you will lose out on a bit of armor.
