Updated - June 19, 2010

Used primarily for lighting fires onto wooden logs, tinderboxes can also be used to light candles and lanterns so as a player won't have to traverse through dark caves without a source of a light.

How It's Used
When using the Tinderbox, character bend down to the ground and try to light fire to a pile of logs that will just appear when using the Tinderbox. Sometimes it may take just a second to light the logs other times it can take up to 5 seconds. Once the fire is lit the logs transform into a campfire that if stepped through will give a burn status effect to those who pass through it. This burn status effect will cause the offending player to receive fire damage periodically for 1%-2% each for a period of up to 10 seconds. Only three fires can be set for a single Tinderbox before the Tinderbox disappears. All three fires can however be on the stage at the same time and in fact that is the recommended strategy.
