Once the player creates a fire, they will walk one step to the west if there is room there, otherwise they will take one step east. If both ways are blocked, the player will move south. If all three ways are blocked, the player will travel north.

Before [[bonfire]]s were introduced, players would often travel to a large area, such as the Grand Exchange, and light many logs in a row. After starting one fire with a clear path to the west, more fires could be rapidly lit. When the avatar is in the process of making one fire, the player would prepare to start the next immediately after lighting the first fire. The chat box would say "the fire catches and the logs begin to burn," instead of "you attempt to light the logs." A bonfire now allows players to add logs to an existing fire and quickly gain experience with minimal clicking.

Fires require an empty ground upon which to light, with additional restrictions on select buildings and other locations, including plants and ferns, adjacent to growing vines, in doorways. Additionally, closed doors block the creation of fires—except in [[Draynor]]. Conversely, open doors do not obstruct firemaking. The [[Grand Exchange]] imposes a final restriction in that players must light fires at least 2 squares away from the desks .

Firemaking is an artisan skill that is used to burn logs to create a fire, often to cook raw food on the spot. Training Firemaking also allows players to use light sources when exploring dark environments. Firemaking is the companion skill of Woodcutting in the sense that logs obtained from Woodcutting can also be burned to train Firemaking. As players level up, they gain the ability to burn better logs and use more efficient light sources.

Basics of Firemaking

To make a fire, players need any logs and a Tinderbox. Alternatively, they may ignite a fire with a bow (barbarian training required), or a Pyrelord (requiring 46 Summoning)

Cutting trees generates logs, though players can alternatively acquire them from the Grand Exchange, or (rarely) as monster drops. Bows can start fires, excluding the Ogre bow, ogre comp bow, dark bow and crystal bow. The player can procure a tinderbox in the general store, such as those in Varrock, Falador and Lumbridge for 1 coin. They can also be taken as a free sample from the Lumbridge general store.

To burn a log, the player may:

  • Use a tinderbox with the log, or a log with the tinderbox. When a player does this, they will drop the log and light it with the tinderbox.
  • With a tinderbox on the tool belt by right clicking the log in the inventory and clicking the 'Light' option.
  • Drop the log, then right click the log and select the 'light log' option.
  • Drop the log, then use the tinderbox with the log. This way is almost never used, but it is still available.
  • Using a bow on the log causes the log to drop and kindles a fire.
  • Using a log on a Pyrelord familiar. It requires level 46 Summoning.

Once the player creates a fire, they will walk one step to the west if there is room there, otherwise they will take one step east. If both ways are blocked, the player will move south. If all three ways are blocked, the player will travel north.

Before bonfires were introduced, players would often travel to a large area, such as the Grand Exchange, and light many logs in a row. After starting one fire with a clear path to the west, more fires could be rapidly lit. When the avatar is in the process of making one fire, the player would prepare to start the next immediately after lighting the first fire. The chat box would say "the fire catches and the logs begin to burn," instead of "you attempt to light the logs." A bonfire now allows players to add logs to an existing fire and quickly gain experience with minimal clicking.

Fires require an empty ground upon which to light, with additional restrictions on select buildings and other locations, including plants and ferns, adjacent to growing vines, in doorways. Additionally, closed doors block the creation of fires—except in Draynor. Conversely, open doors do not obstruct firemaking.
