Passive Eitr with full Eitr armor set
I'd like to suggest some way of passively having Eitr, without food.

As someone who'd like to roleplay any kind of mystical arts practicioner, it would be desirable to be able to show it in idle situations. Think playing in the back yard or having to remove a shrub.

Why? Because without food, every piece of gear that uses Eitr is useless. You can swing a Demolisher without stamina food. You can block with a tower shield without health food. So, why not cast a small spell if you already have a glowy staff at hand?

How much Eitr? Not much. Enough to kill a Greydwarf or a bird for feathers. Not necessarily enough for a shield.

Suggesting full Eitr set because head piece is bad. It has a very weak bonus and the heavy armor head piece has no downsides. Currently, by using Carapace helmet in place of Eitr-weave, your Eitr regen goes from 200% to 180%, but armor goes from 70 to 86! This is with fully upgraded Mistlands set. The difference is even higher when using unupgraded set and I bet even higher with Ashlands gear.

If not through Eitr-weave set, please make passive Eitr available by some other means. Here's some other suggestions:
- Let's say crafting a Galdr Table for the first time enables it. Optionally, for each new upgrade you get a +5 bonus.
- Make it an arrow-slot item. Making it a belt-slot item would be annoying. Swapping between wisplight and the strength belt is awkward enough.
- Add it with different boss deaths. Between +5 and +10 max Eitr per boss slain.

Base eitr as a set bonus would be fine. Also the mage-sets would no longer be the ones without a set bonus in ashlands.

Another reason: You can practice your bow skill without any food by standing at home shooting greylings. But you cannot do the same to practice elemental magic rn.

I agree. You have base health and base stamina, you should have base Eitr. Even if you can only shoot 1 fireball every several seconds, at least you should have some way of defending youself if you run out of Eitr food.
