Runescape Skill Guide:firemaking

first, u need a hatchet; any kind will do awright, but the better the axe, the easier it will be to chop. most can be bought at Bob's Axes in Lumby, but u can also smith ur own.
Tinderbox
Building a Fire

Now that you have everything together, you can either use the tinderbox with the logs in your backpack, or drop the logs and use the tinderbox with them. Or, you can now choose the option 'Light Fire' if you see some logs on the ground. Your character will keep trying to light the fire until it catches, and then you've got a hot fire!

Fire Info

Once you've gotten better at both woodcutting and firemaking, you will be able to burn a wider variety of logs which give even more experience. These logs from rare trees require a higher level and some can only be found in certain places in the RuneScape world, but they are also worth more than normal logs.

Firemaking Notes


Lanterns

Members now have the ability to light Lanterns, which are used while in extremely dark places. Currently, the only place that Lanterns are used is in the Lumbridge Swamp Slayer Dungeon. For info about making the actual lantern, check out the Crafting guide.

To light a Lantern, you first need to get fuel for it. Collect some Swamp Tar from either the Lumbridge or Mort Myre Swamp, and bring it to the Chemist west of Rimmington. Use the tar with the Still on the Chemist's table, and then use the lantern with the Still to fill it up. Candle Lanterns just need a lit Candle to be used with them. Now just use a Tinderbox to light it. The better the Lantern you use, the brighter the light is.

Runescape Guide: 50 firemaking in an hour

50 Firemaking is a requirement for Desert Treasure, heres a way to do it quick, and barely losing money.
Firemake is one of the most anoyying skills there are, just relax and don't get distracted.
First, you will need to get from 1-15 Firemaking, to do this go to a full f2p world and go to varrok store, most of the time they regular logs stocked, if not just go to lumby and look for autoers to be dropping regular logs.Burn them untill you reach 15 fm.
Second, at level 15 you are now able to burn oak logs, this is where it gets easier, all stores in packed f2p worlds are full of oak logs, buy them for only 6 each and burn 'till you get to 30 firemaking.
Third, you have now reached a breakthrough in firemaking, you can now burn all the logs in you inventory without having to attempt to light them if you go the right speed, buy these from the general store in varrok and burn until either 45 or go till 50.
Fourth(optional), now you can burn maple logs, it will take about 300 to get level 50 which wont take long.
Total cost: Not even 50k
Good Luck with Desert Treasure
