Firemaking



Firemaking is a skill available for players in RuneScape Classic. It is considered a production skill, as a player produces a fire.

Overview
Players can make a fire using this skill. There are two ways to get logs to burn, from woodcutting and by picking up logs in a respawning point. One major use for burning logs is to use the resulting fire to cook food on by using the cooking skill. To light a log, a player needs to first drop the logs on the ground, and use a tinderbox on them. Players can fail to light a fire, in which the message, You have failed to light a fire. appears in the chatbox. When this happens, the logs are still left on the ground, but they are not lit.

Players can only light regular logs, while the other types of logs are unable to be lit; until the changeover to RuneScape 2.

Experience
Although it seems like it would be very inefficient to only burn normal logs, the experience you get increases as your level increases.
