Let me explain why this update was a terrible idea.

The xp is about the same as logs but more afk, and you profit. This means there is no reason to firemake the old way. This means the demand for logs will crash ruining the prices of logs and will devalue the wcing skill itself.

It's the only place you can get the pet I heard. Why?

By the time you get the full outfit, you will already have 99 fming because the xp is so fast and the outfit is so rare. Plus you can get duplicates of each piece making it even more rare.

WHY would you waste so much time making an OP minigame for the most stupid and useless skill in the game?

The whole idea of it is also just plain stupid. Light braziers to kill a boss thats the season of winter itself? WHHAAATT????? Plus the gameplay could not be more bland. It's the fishing trawler of fming.

You're not going to remove it so all I can do is suggest how to improve it.
1. Cut the xp rates almost in half.
2. Remove high value loot.
3. Be able to get the pet by burning logs. Its a skill, not a boss.
4. Make the outfit less rare. And no duplicates...


Agree mostly, I like the seeds. They hot fixed it. It's much better. Just need XP and make it but less afk and maybe more engaging with boss mechanics

I can pay attention for 100% of a game and still not get 500 points unless people intentionally don't heal the pyromancers. Why is that? Is a reward supposed to only happen when you're lucky enough to be on a world where players are working around the game's shortcomings? Healing the pyromancers is practically griefing 500 Skill Total World for F2P

Now we just need surges. Just don't make fire surge hit as high as it did pre eoc, would be stupidly OP with tome then. A base max of around 25 should be plenty while keeping it balanced. (pre eoc max was around 28)

Anyone know max with fire wave now? I'm hearing you can hit over 36? And someone said elemental staffs give extra accuracy and damage as well can anyone confirm?


36/39 off task depending on how the tome's damage boost is applied. (assuming max damage boosts) On task, I believe the max would be around 39/43.

Only the smoke staff gives a accuracy/damage boost (and only for standard magic) which is 10% for both.
OSRS Mage Tank.


Believe magic to only be for support? Think again. It's just as valid of a Pking style as melee and range is.

Wintertodt feedback:

I feel getting 500 points is way too hard at the moment. I barely make it before the last second. I dont know if this is to do with the massive amount of people playing at the moment and the boss is too easy to kill with 1000 people.

The XP rates are through the roof with FM. I got 99fm before the boss came out and I am getting the same xp rates as I did burning logs the old way. The xp needs to be halved if you are getting rewards for this.

Buff to all other xp rewards (WC, Herb, Farm)

I'm finding that with my high stats in FM, HP and DEF I am getting hit way too much for what I have to do.

To be honest it could be more challenging not less lol. It's incredibly easy to get 500 points. Your telling me you can't cut 50 logs and burn them in the whole minigame? It is a set speed of cutting the logs... Means you just can't seem to handle burning them... Sorry you can't completely afk.... Lol

Excellent boss/minigame, speaking for all those who are too busy enjoying the update, please do not nerf the experience, it makes an otherwise boring and largely irrelevant skill interesting and worthwhile with an engaging way of training that makes some decent money.

Yes I'm using the logs from the roots I can literally stand at the fire clicking constantly and by the time the boss is at 85% I haven't earned a single point from burning logs. There must be a limit of logs that can go in at a time, there are a lot of people.


Click and wait for the root to burn. Spam clicking will interrupt it.
