In Windrose, darkness can be both a hassle and a real danger. Your lamp is one of the most essential tools in your inventory because it helps you see in caves and during late-night adventures. However, it consumes fuel faster than you’d think, and running out of fuel at a bad moment can leave you in a tough spot.
To stay ready, it’s important to know how to refill your lamp and where the fuel comes from. If you’re planning to explore far from your starting point, this is a system you can’t overlook. Here’s everything you need to keep your lights shining and your trips going smoothly.
How To Refill Your Lamp
To refill your lamp in Windrose, you’ll need to use a Workbench. After interacting with a workbench, look at the top left corner of the menu and select the “Refill” tab. From there, you can restore your lamp using Animal Fat.
Note: A full refill requires three Animal Fats. So, it’s wise to keep a good supply if you plan on long explorations.
Your lamp doesn’t last forever. It generally runs out after roughly 10 to 20 minutes of use. Because of this, preparation is key. It’s a good idea to carry extra Animal Fat along with at least 20 Wood so you can set up a workbench anytime you need. This is especially important when exploring dark areas or caves, where losing your light can quickly become a big problem.
How To Get Animal Fat
Animal Fat mainly comes from hunting Boars. You can find these animals slightly inland from where you start. Boars aren’t very rare, but you’ll need to hunt them regularly to build a decent supply of Animal Fat.
Note: Each boar usually drops one or two pieces of Animal Fat. You’ll need to hunt several boars consistently to keep your lamp fueled and ready. Making hunting boars a regular part of your exploration routine ensures you’re never left in the dark when you need light the most.
