Revision 4

The ship may never sail again, but its steering wheel is still useful around the house.

Overview

Helm Chandelier is a ceiling-mounted Chandeliers built from a retired ship's steering wheel. It casts a warm overhead light and fits a nautical or salvaged interior theme, making it a natural centerpiece above a dining table or banquet arrangement.

It is one of the cheaper chandeliers to make and, unlike most of the line, uses copper rather than Foothills iron. It carries 1,500 max health, lower than the wooden furniture pieces, and builds in one second.

Ceiling-mounted Works only within the Bonfire range.

Comfort and Placement

Like all decorations, this piece must be built inside the glow of a Bonfire to function. Placed in range, it contributes its +1 Chandelier bonus to the base's Comfort System total.

Comfort is what powers the Rested buff: each point of Comfort Level adds roughly one minute to how long Rested lasts, from about 7 minutes at a bare bonfire toward a soft cap near 30 minutes on a fully decorated base. Building out your Base Building with one item from every furniture sub-category is the most efficient way to raise that total.

Comfort bonuses do not stack within a sub-category. A single Chandelier piece already grants the full +1, so adding a second one of the same type changes only the look of the room, not the Comfort score. Mix different sub-categories instead to keep climbing.

Crafting and Materials

The recipe is taught by the Decoration: Ship's Wheel Chandelier plan. Build cost:

Animal Fat is the fuel shared across the lighting line, so keep a stock on hand when furnishing. Because it skips Foothills iron, the Helm Chandelier is craftable earlier than the iron chandeliers.

Placement Tips

• Mount it on a ceiling or overhead beam. It hangs several in-game meters below the mount point, so leave headroom or it will clip through a low roof.

• Hang it over a dining table or banquet setup for the strongest visual effect.

• Pair it with matching wall lights to balance the ambient lighting of the room.
