Making a fire is useful for cooking food without having to go and find a range. To make a fire drop some logs on the ground. Then use a tinderbox with the logs.
You will then attempt to light the fire.
Your chance of lighting the fire depends on your firemaking level.
The following is a list of what levels are required to set fire to different types of wood. A similar table to the one below can be opened in the game by clicking the firemaking skill icon in the stats menu.
