Bon-fires

[Oneeyedgod 69]

A feature that would seem cool to have  to bring people together also for big events like rift and slaying bon-fires

and the more you add to them the bigger they get camp fires are ok  but they are kind of small

dont seem like it would be a difficult addition seeing you already have a base model the camp fire making the image larger as more material is added to it.

+1 could be a nice touch for the coming holy sites too. Maybe make a larger bonfire have more volume so people could use it as a forge/oven? That way people dont have to leave a bunch of lowql forges to sit around. The model getting bigger would be a nice touch too, I think there is something already similar to that with wood scrap last I recall.

it could be giant hay stack that burns long like charcoal pile and spear so much smoke it's seen from distance like rift beam this is a nice idea

I know, I know, all those people who grinded Firemaking by using coc kindlings on coal piles spent countless hours getting to 50, 70, etc, but what if you could improve/repair the bonfire with logs? Maybe even make tools for improving bonfires like a metal fire poker, bellows, who knows?

 

After thought: what if they added a number of decorative light-able things like stone/metal fire pits, large bonfires like you suggest, I would love to see some wall sconces, candles, the ability to hold a lantern without it looking totally whack or hanging an oil lamp from my waist/quiver slot. There's a ton of things they could do/add

 

After after thought: candles are basically worthless unless you have candelabras. Whatever happened to single candle sticks?

This is an interesting idea. I would add to it that a bonfire (which may have to be created by more than one person - optional) would be visible from far away, if Wurm allows for such things. This would be a good idea not only to have a party like atmosphere during slayings, but it would also mark the location, helping those arriving find the rest of the party. A beacon, of sorts.

 they actualy can be used to cook or heat up items like a forge they just cause the lump to be less quality
