Firemaking is the ancient art of making fires. Increasing the Firemaking skill level allows the player to purchase higher tier cooking fires from the Shop.
One of the main attractions of Firemaking is the experience bonuses it can provide to all skills. Wearing the 
Firemaking Skillcape will grant +5% global skill experience, unlocking 
Pyro will grant +1% global skill experience, 5% global
experience is granted while the 95% pool checkpoint is active, and 0.25% global mastery experience is granted for each log that is
level 99, a total of 2.25% (
4.5%) once each log is mastered.
Mechanics
The amount of time taken to burn a log can be reduced by 15% if the
upgrade has been purchased, 10% while the 25% pool checkpoint is active, 5% while the
familiar is equipped, up to 5% with
(
), 4% if
is active, 2% if 
Warm Beanie is worn, and 0.1% for each mastery level gained in the log being burned. The Throne of the Herald Expansion introduces further interval reductions, being 5% if the 
Kindling Pouch Consumable is in use, 3% if the
is active, and 2% if 
Harold is unlocked. The maximum possible reduction is therefore 50.9% ( 60.9%).
Items Received
The player will sometimes receive items while burning logs. Each of these items is rolled separately, so it is possible to get multiple different items from the same action.
| Item | Chance | |
|---|---|---|
 |
Coal Ore | 40% |
 |
Ash | 20% |
 |
Charcoal |
1% |
 |
Generous Fire Spirit | 0.1% |
The chance of receiving each of the above items can be boosted with the 
Clue Chasers Insignia, and the quantity received may be doubled with global or Firemaking specific doubling bonuses.
The amount of Ash received is determined by the base burn time of the log in seconds. For example Normal Logs take 2 seconds to burn and thus give 2 Ash.
Additionally, while burning 
Magic Logs there is a base 1% chance to receive 
Stardust per action.
It is possible to increase the odds of receiving items through various means. For example, the Firemaking Skillcape increases the chance to receive Coal Ore after each Firemaking action to 100% and the 
Burning Amulet of Charcoal increases the chance of receiving Charcoal by 10%.
With the
or the
+
familiar synergy it is also possible to receive 
Diamonds while firemaking. The quantity of Diamonds received is always 1, and cannot be doubled.
Bonfires
While firemaking the player has the option to light a bonfire at the cost of 10 logs. This action itself does not give experience; bonfires instead provide bonus experience for firemaking when lit. The amount of bonus experience gained depends on the log being burned (see: Logs). Note that the experience bonus applies to skill experience only, and does not provide additional
experience.
By using 
Controlled Heat Potions, bonfires will automatically be started at the cost of no logs.
