AlphaRay Posted February 7, 2021 Report Posted February 7, 2021 When you jump in water with burning torch - the whole stack is then "used" (or useless...). Here should only one torch to be damaged. I lost 16 of them and was without light far away from home in the middle of the night
martinuzz Posted February 7, 2021 Report Posted February 7, 2021 Good learning moment. Do not jump in the water while equipping a torch. You can turn them back into lit torches in a campfire, although it's faster to just make new ones from sticks. Protip: Lanterns don't go out underwater 1
Streetwind Posted February 7, 2021 Report Posted February 7, 2021 You can also place them in the world and relight them with a lit torch - just like you can relight torches that were extinguished by rain (but not torches that have fully burned out). Make a habit of keeping at least one lit torch in your inventory instead of/in addition to your hotbar, and try to progress towards oil lamps (cheap) and lanterns (powerful). Technically all you need for an oil lamp is killing one large animal (sheep/boar/wolf), finding any sort of clay, and making a campfire.
AlphaRay Posted February 8, 2021 Author Report Posted February 8, 2021 Yes.. i saw it later than i can "recycle" these. But it's frustrating when you're a good way from home. When i have enough room i can split the one torch. So the rest is not effected. Or hold it in the left hand..hm. @martinuzz Thanks for the tip with lanterns
