wax events : timing and duration
Wax events are events that occur in specific areas in specific realms and timings, each event gives a specific amount of wax, and each have a limit to the amount of wax they give.
*Each of these happen every 2 hours!

turtle: this one lasts 10 minutes! and its 5 mins after grandma!
Location: sanctuary islands, on the small islands to the left you'll need to burn the plants on the turtle to get wax, then you'll find a shell you can flip to get more wax!
Sky does do daylight savings so if you're somewhere that doesn't do daylight savings reset time for you will shift an hour twice a year
Daily reset resets things like wax spots and daily quests
Weekly reset is on Sunday at the usual daily reset time, this resets things like eden
You also may here some people saying reset is on Monday
New events usually start on Mondays and some people call this reset

Chevrons and candle running:
Chevrons are the arrows u see on your candle! They fade away as u collect wax and reset with each day on the daily reset with the wax!
They're bassically your skid's "energy" at first you collect wax quickly then you get tired and so u collect wax progressively slower
You start with three Chevrons
3 chevrons : u collect 5x the amount of wax you would get without arrows
2 chevrons: u collect 3x the amount of wax you would get without arrows
1 chevron :u collect x2 the amount of wax you would get without arrows
You loose a chevron after getting 5 candles! So you can get 15 candles with the three Chevrons
After you run out of Chevrons you'll have you can still collect wax and candles though it'll be difficult, until when your candle turns grey, it means you now get wax alot slower and have reached the daily wax limit

There are 5 social light areas in sky. They are pictured below. With the exception of the hot springs in the village of dreams they are all in the same wax pool as grandma.
These locations are designed so you can sit and chat with your friends while gaining wax idly. However many players decide to just afk here to gain wax instead.
There is an afk timer that makes afking slightly more difficult (after about 10 minutes of being afk you will stop collecting wax). You can easily solve this by either tapping your screen every 10 minutes, or bringing a sitting instrument and using it to negate the timer.
I would not recommend afking in these areas for a long time if your device is older or prone to overheating. It will damage to your device!!

Valley temple social space
There's one more social light area in valley and its the temple maze!
Head to the valley temple then head to the door on the left! You will need to have unlocked 1 spirit from wasteland!
Walk along the hallway and you will find yourself there!
Hope this helps various moths and sky players on their candle runs! Gl everyone!
(note: I'll make a guide on how to get to geyser and turtle soon, the img limit didn't help me here lol)
