Training
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. Generally, this is not worth the effort, as the fire must be relit manually each time and consumes a great deal of logs.
Instead of lighting bonfires manually, players should use Controlled Heat Potions, which will relight bonfires for free after the first has been lit. It is not advisable to fully level up Firemaking without these potions, as the bonus is significant. It requires only
Level 20, as well as
Mahogany Logs. This can be combined with the
Devil and
Bear Summoning synergy for another 5% bonus XP, if available.
Log | Bonfire Bonus XP | Time Lit | Potion Doses p/hr | |
---|---|---|---|---|
5% | 1 | 0 min 20 sec | 180 | |
10% | 10 | 0 min 30 sec | 120 | |
15% | 25 | 0 min 40 sec | 90 | |
20% | 35 | 0 min 50 sec | 72 | |
25% | 45 | 1 min 00 sec | 60 | |
30% | 55 | 1 min 10 sec | 51.4 | |
35% | 60 | 1 min 20 sec | 45 | |
40% | 75 | 1 min 30 sec | 40 | |
45% | 90 | 1 min 40 sec | 36 |
Note that:
- The With Bonfire section assumes that
Controlled Heat Potions are active, as such the number of logs excludes logs used to light bonfires. Further, using
Controlled Heat Potions is highly recommended due to the significant time and log saving they provide.
- The below table assumes no XP bonuses or burn time reductions apply. In reality, the time experienced by the player will be lower than is stated below due to each log's burn time reducing by 0.1% for each
Mastery level that same log has, and any other burn time reductions the player may have active (See Boosters).
- Log amounts stated are before resource preservation, so the actual number of logs used will be lower if the player is using things that provide a chance to preserve resources such as the
Crown of Rhaelyx,
Astrology Modifiers, or one of the many
Agility obstacles that provides resource preservation.
- If the player does not have enough
Magic Logs to reach level 99, then burning
Yew Logs instead is preferred to
Redwood Logs due to their higher XP rate.

1 Due to the time taken to gather Magic Logs, burning them is only worthwhile if they have already been acquired. If additional Magic Logs would have to be acquired through
Woodcutting or otherwise, then consider burning
Yew Logs instead.
