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

Mastery

experience is granted while the 95% pool checkpoint is active, and 0.25% global mastery experience is granted for each log that is

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Mastery

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

level gained in the log being burned. The maximum possible reduction is therefore 46.1% at Mastery level 1, and 55.9% at Mastery level 99. The Throne of the Herald Expansion introduces further interval reductions, which are 8% if the Kindling Pouch II Consumable is in use (a 3% upgrade over Quick Burner II), 3% if the

is active, and 2% if Harold is unlocked. Therefore, the maximum possible reduction in is 54.1% at Mastery level 1, and 63.9% at Mastery level 99. The Atlas of Discovery Expansion introduces the first flat interval reduction on the Ragnar Dungeon Ruins at 0.1s, or doubled with Carthulu to 0.2s. Additionally,

bonus adds another 3% for all non-combat skills. Finally, the Ancient Relics game mode can also double the bonus from

, for another 5% reduction. Therefore, the maximum possible reduction in is 66.9% + 0.2s flat in standard, and 71.9% + 0.2s in Ancient Relics at Mastery level 99.

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	Log
	Coal Ore	40%	All
	Ash	20%	All
	Charcoal	1%	All
	Generous Fire Spirit	0.1%	All
	Stardust	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.

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

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. Bonfires will be automatically re-lit using the same logs used to light them at the cost of 10 additional logs. The cost to re-light bonfires can be negated by using Controlled Heat Potions.

Lighting Bonfires does not give experience; bonfires instead provide bonus experience for Firemaking when lit. The amount of bonus experience gained and the duration of the Bonfire depends on the log used to light the Bonfire (see: Logs). Note that the experience bonus applies to skill experience only, and does not provide additional

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Mastery

experience. The type of logs used in a bonfire are independent of the logs used in the normal Firemaking action. For maximum XP gain and burn time, it is therefore preferable to light the highest level of logs you have access to.

Potion

The Controlled Heat Potion relights bonfires automatically at the cost of no logs. The bonfire must first be lit manually however, which will incur the usual cost of 10 logs.

	II	10	Bonfires that provide Skill XP are now free to light.
	III	15	Bonfires that provide Skill XP are now free to light.
	IV	25	Bonfires that provide Skill XP are now free to light.

The Enkindled Yields Potion provides an increased chance to double various items that can be received while burning logs.

Skill Boosts

Main article: Firemaking Boosts

Skill boosts are special enhancements that improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the player's skills. These boosts can come from a variety of sources such as equipment, potions, pets, and masteries. Global boosts are boosts which apply across all skills. A boost can be assumed to be for the listed skill only, unless specifically stated it is a global boost. Boosts help the player to progress faster and achieve higher levels of mastery in each skill. The following are some common types of skill boosts and what they do:

• Increased Skill XP: Increases the amount of experience points (XP) gained.
• Decreased Skill Interval: Reduces the time it takes to complete skilling actions, allowing the player to perform more actions in a given period.
• Preservation Chance: Increases the likelihood that resources or items used during skill actions are not consumed.
• Increased Chance to Double Items: Gives a higher chance of receiving double the items or resources when performing skill-related actions.
• Increased Mastery XP: Enhances the rate at which mastery XP is gained for a skill.

For more information on general skill boosts that apply to all skills, refer to the Skill Boosts page.
