Re: Even with a 150k LP skill, it would still be "no" ?
i light 1 fire with a firebrand per day, that is all you need if you're doing it right. keep the fire fed while you're online, light other fires with a torch.

Failed fire only 1-2 times for the whole world. Seems to me, all you need is to use it fast after you make it.

While I would rather not mention things from Salem, I so miss stoves. Something that will last a day when filled with fuel and can be used to re-light torches. I would have to agree that lighting fire is very high on the 'worst part of the game' list. Half a stamina bar is a lot of juice, and and a laggy connection means lots of failures for sure.

I've had dozens of firebrands fail even if you are prepared to click in time with the hourglass progression (read: custom client counting up 5% at a time). I'm basically clicking the fire as close to instantly as you can humanly get and they still fail.APXEOLOG wrote:Failed fire only 1-2 times for the whole world.

They know they need to include something better, they just haven't made it yet.
Come back two hours earlier.

Fireplace lets you do this, though you can't build one indoors. It even lets you relight it if it runs out of fuel and if very hot, can be relit for quite some time.Carebear wrote:While I would rather not mention things from Salem, I so miss stoves.

Most of the days I light at least 2 fires, and I consider it lucky to fire them on the first try. It doesn't particularly annoy me, though it would be nice if survival raised the chance more significantly that now. Or perhaps you should make fire quicker with more survival.sabinati wrote:i light 1 fire with a firebrand per day, that is all you need if you're doing it right. keep the fire fed while you're online, light other fires with a torch.

Would be nice if the qualities on sticks reduced time needed to ignite, or increased burn time on firebrands.

On 2 occasions i needed 10x to light the fire. And I was clicking as soon as the firebrand was ready. So it is too much RNG involved and for those that are unlucky it really is stressfull.APXEOLOG wrote:Failed fire only 1-2 times for the whole world.

However, firebrand would be totally find if torch posts with candles or torches on them would be a thing and when you light one, it would burn like 3x longer than a normal fireplace does (like give it timer of 24h real time hours).
