Charcoal is an essential item in RuneScape DragonWilds and is required to craft a Furnace. After that, Charcoal becomes the most valuable fuel in the game, allowing players to melt ores and cook high-tier items. Crafting Charcoal is extremely easy, as you only need to process wood. However, to unlock the Charcoal recipe, you need to find other materials and make other buildings. If you are also struggling to craft Charcoal, simply follow our complete guide on how to get Charcoal in RuneScape DragonWilds.
How to Make Charcoal in RuneScape DragonWilds
Charcoal is a mid-to-end game fuel in RuneScape DragonWilds, and it is used to craft the Furnace. Crafting Charcoal is fairly easy, as long as you have a Kiln and some wood. Below, I have given a step-by-step explanation on how to build a Kiln and craft Charcoal using it.
1. Collect Clay
The first thing you need to do is collect Clay. This is one of the required materials for building a Kiln, which is used to craft Charcoal. Head to Whispering Swamps, located North of Bramblemead Valley. Clay can only be found in Whispering Swamps, so don’t look for it elsewhere. After reaching the Whispering Swamp, look for Clay Nodes.
Once you find a Clay Node, use your Pickaxe to mine for Clay. You can also use Dragonwilds spells like ‘Rocksplosion’ to mine fast or ‘Detect Clay + Ore’ to find Clay Nodes easily. Both of these spells are the Dragonwilds skills in the Mining tree.
2. Build Kiln
After you have collected Clay from the Whispering Swamps, you will need to build a Kiln. Here are the materials required to build a Kiln in RuneScape DragonWilds:
- 8 Ash logs
- 20 Stones
- 6 Clay
- 10 Fire Rune
Ash Logs and Stones can be easily found in trees and rocks. For Fire Rune, use the Rune Altar to craft them with Rune Essences. Once you have all the items, open the Build menu using the ‘B‘ key and select Kiln in the Processing section of the Crafting tab. Now, build the Kiln outside in an open area. The Kiln must be exposed, otherwise it won’t work.
3. Craft Charcoal
After you have built a Kiln, you can start crafting Charcoal in the Kiln. To craft Charcoal, you can process the following materials in the Kiln:
- Ash log (1:1)
- Ash Plank (1:1)
- Oak Log (1:1)
- Oak Plank (1:1)
As one Ash or Oak log can be split into two Planks, you can get a lot more Charcoal by converting your logs to planks first and then using them to craft Charcoal. After crafting Charcoal, you can use it as a new fuel for cooking and in the furnace. Charcoal is also required to build a Furnace in RuneScape DragonWilds.
So, that’s it. Now you know how to make Charcoal in RuneScape DragonWilds. Start crafting stronger gear once you have built the Furnace with Charcoal and completed all the quests in Ashenfall. Tell us how much you are enjoying RuneScape DragonWilds so far in the comments.
