    Title: Elven Streetlights and Iron Wall Lights don't always emit light
    Reproduction Rate: 40%
    Blocker? No
    Details: Fairly often, I look at eleven streelights and iron wall lights and they are not emitting light around them. This happens in the same locations without changing anything but time. Oddly, that I can sometime walk somewhere else in the same scene, and they do work. I noticed that if I simply move pick them up and place them down in the same spot, they work immediately, but will fail another time.
    Steps to Reproduce:
    User Specs:
    OS: Windows 10 (10.0.0) 64bit
    CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5950X 16-Core Processor (32) System RAM: 32688

    This has been going on for at least a couple releases. I just never took the time to capture it.

    I tried to reproduce this for a while tonight on the Windows client but had no luck - toggling various Video Options had no effect.

    when we spoke in game tahru mentioned might be amd-specific? ...although if it is, it's a different bug than the iron wall lanterns doing the same thing.

    I can't reproduce this with my system, set all the video options per screenshot (except resolution, I can only do 1920x1080) -- and still can't make it happen - the lights are working for me.
    Maybe AMD Specific like Alley is saying?

    Title: Elven Streetlamp Area lighting effect not updating

    Details: when running around my park i noticed some of the Elven streetlamps didn't have the lighting effect, this was fixed by picking up the light, wiggling it, and replaceing it on the ground (ok the wiggle isn't necesary but is fun...) ((see pic below))
