Usage

Firestarters are used to ignite fires.

They are most often used to ignite a Firepit, Charcoal Pit, or Pit Kiln, but can be used on the top of any block to start a fire. Unlike Flint & Steel, a fire is not guaranteed to start every time, though adding up to 5 pieces of Straw increases the chances of a Firepit igniting by 10% per straw. A Forge, Bloomery, or Blast Furnace will always succeed in lighting if the requirements are met.

Note: In TNG, Firestarters are used by holding down right click until the action succeeds or fails, rather than clicking and releasing as in Classic.

While inexpensive, Firestarters often take several tries to work, and have only eight durability, so upgrading to a better method is useful.
