The basic Rules of Fire Making

When Fire Making you always need a Tinderbox and Logs. Tinderboxes are available from all general stores and logs can be obtained from buying them from players or by woodcutting.

Log Type	Level  Required	Xp for Burning
Logs	1	40
Oak	15	60
Willow	30	90
Teak	35	105
Maple	45	135
Mahogany	50	157.5
Yew	60	202.5
Magic	75	303

Which Logs?

Quite often people ask, what logs should I burn? Well here is some basic advice.

Log Type	Start Level	Finnish Level
Normal	1	20
Oak	20	35
Willow	35	50
Maple	50	65
Yew	65	85
Magic	85	99 (Woot! Skill Cape!)

        

Chopping Prices

That’s all very well said and done, but woodcutting is time consuming, being a pyromaniac I just want to burn things! To that I say listen clearly. It’s easy to cut the price of fire making, because after all time is money, and a willow log cost up to 45gp at times! Well how does 12gp a willow sound?That’s right you can get your fire making up quickly and effectively, spending only 12gp a willow log! How do you do this? Log into a non-member world, take as much money as your willing to spend, for instance using the bellow equation you can work out how much you need to spend to reach a desired goal.

Then go to a general store, most probably Rimmington and buy a pack of willows, burn and repeat. Easy as pie.

Lanterns and Lights

What would Runescape be without dim dungeons?  Nothing. But we do need lanterns to see in these dungeons. There are many different kinds of lantern for instance-

Type of Torch/Latern	Required level to light
Candles	1
Torch	1
Candle Laterns	4
Oil Lamps	12
Oil Laterns	26
Bullseye Lanterns	49
Mining Helmet	65

These are all easily obtained or made, candles can be bought in Lumbridge Swamp or Catherby candle shop. Please relate to the crafting guide of information on how to make these.
