How to get Charcoal in RuneScape: Dragonwilds
You can make Charcoal byusing wood in the Kiln, which unlocks after you acquire Clay. If you have not found this resource, go to the Whispering Swamp to mine some Clay deposits. It’s fairly hard to see there, so you may want to bring a torch. You can alsofind Bittercap Mushroomshere, too, so be on the lookout for this unique item. Once you’ve farmed enough Clay, you should see a notification regarding the Kiln and other recipes. You can make a Kiln with the following materials:
As for the rest of the resources, the only one you may come into trouble with is Fire Runes. I’ve mostly discovered them when looting chests and opening goblin sacks. But you may be able to craft it at the Rune Altar. If you have any spare Fire Runes, I highly recommend using them to fend offRuneScape: Dragonwilds’many enemies, especially when you’re on the hunt for the Kiln’s Clay. Fire Runes act as a fiery ammo type for your weapon, including an enchantment that applies burning to those who stand in your way.
With all the materials ready, place the Kiln in an open space. This is one of the requirements of the build, as it cannot be used in your shelter. Now, it’s time to make Charcoal by placing wood inside the Kiln.
How to use Charcoal in RuneScape: Dragonwilds
Charcoal is a solid step up asa fuel source—efficient, reliable, and surprisingly long-lasting. From my own experience, it does seem to heat things up a bit faster than regular wood, though the speed boost is fairly minimal. Still, when it comes to cooking, one piece of Charcoal goes a long way. It’s perfect for grilling up multiple meals without burning through your stash.
Like many resources inRuneScape: Dragonwilds, Charcoal can help with multiple recipes, either as a reliable fuel source or a key ingredient in various builds. However, I noticed Charcoal didn’t immediately unlock any new recipes for me once I had it. It could be that I just haven’t found the right ingredients to pair with it yet, meaning there could be more builds to uncover over time.
