Seriously, I try to think of the worth of firemaking.

 

 

 

If you are f2p.. you cut logs to do what? Burn them... No profite. No Nifty animations. No gain at all, right?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Seriously even in p2p.. firemaking is still worthless and I honestly see no point of even having it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Unless the only reason is to get rid of the logs. I mean with all the woodcutting pures and high woodcutting lvls.. without firemaking..where the hell would the logs go? ..lol

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Can anyone thing of the usefullness of FireMaking?

Think of Karamja without firemaking.

Never heard of shades and splitbark armour have you?

 

 

 

Read http://tip.it/runescape/?page=splitbark_armour.htm

I'm fishing in karamja right now. Firemaking is the most important thing there, everyone yells "fire!" all the time :D

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But I would find it neat if you could make fires without tinderbox at high level. After all, there are enough methods to make fire without tinderbox, and if you have a high level I wonder why you still need such a beginners tool for it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Plus, firemaking is fun, and levels pretty fast. Turn on the song "Prodigy - Firestarter" in your Winamp or xmms, get 27 logs, and make 27 fires in a row!

Well I mean..the skill itself seems pointless in a nutshell. But when u talk about Karajama, it does bring up a good point.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And no.. I completley forgot about Shades and Splitbark. But didn't they put that into the game becasue firemaking was really already a worthless skill, lol? :roll:

Well, yeah. I mean, all skills are worthless until you put something in to make them worthwhile. I don't see how that's an argument.

Well, you really owned me on that..lol

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Btw just made a new sig...Who likes my nooby sig making skillz?

Firemaking = Easy total levels, exp. Thats EXACTLY what I'm looking for.

That's exactly what I was going to say... I got my fm from 18 to 40 in only like 1 and a half hours... That's 22 total lvls!

I dunno, 'burning' of RS towns is pretty fun.

Logically, it doesn't make sense to me why you have to level to burn different types of logs...In smithing, you have to "learn" the differences of each metal, in cooking you have to learn the proper method of cooking each food, in Combat, you get stronger as you fight, in magic, your powers increase in strength as you train it, in range, you become more accurate and adept at the various flexibilities of each wood bow, in Runecraft you learn to harness more magical powers into esses (which would also explain multiple runes per ess), and in mining you learn new methods of extracting different ores.

 

 

 

But honestly, how is lighting an oak log on fire different from a yew log or a willow log?

You're not looking at it logically. :P

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You need to learn how much spark from you tinderbox is the right amount, so it burns the longest. Not enough means no fire, too much means it blows up in your face.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I could say how is whacking an iron ore rock different from rune?

different ores have different characteristics; some are dense, some are brittle, thus you have to learn to strike the source in the proper manner to extract the ore without harming it too much.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

However, how is it that different woods require different amount of spark? I figure that if x spark is right for a oak log, it should be the same for a yew log...why would it be harder or easier to burn?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And if level determined only the time your fired lasted, I would understand why having a higher level is beneficial. But allowing a certain type of wood to be lit only after a certain level doesn't make sense to me...i should be able to go outside right now and light an oak log just as easily as a maple log.

Eh, in RSC it was used like cabbage art :D

Bring back fire art

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The things I did in my pyro days on RSC...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

;) Now-in-days, we all burn towns. :twisted:

Firemaking seams useless but there aren't furnaces everywhere so fishing and cooking goes fastest with a selfmade fire rocks...

They need a big fire pit! you can throw all your logs in and burn them for the same xp as normally burning!
