This is some good information. I always thought the fire duration bonus was due to being indoors or outdoors, and your fire skill. I didn't know it was linked to the temperature.

[@aaroniusYTS]

OMG walking that moose back with the campfire chain had me in stitches! This was extremely helpful.

[@BorrasitoTakaTaka]

Very important fact you said that this campfire - wildlife mechanic works since zone of contamination update because before that moose, bears and aurora wolves were not afraid from campfires and still charge at you.

[@Bashrobe]

Yup, and aurora wildlife ignored it, if you saw some earlier videos about wolves they behaved differently. It could be a bug though and might change again in the future

[@ArchimedesLP]

The wind/gust strength and embers info are fantastic, thanks Bash!

[@TheGlenn8]

Campfire training a moose is such a goofy thing.

[@TimberwolfMountaineer]

2:30 at this point just light a fire inside(which is fully windproof by design) The moose trick is actually very useful. Ty, great video.

[@atomic_godz]

another video with multiple helpful details I had no idea about. The info on torches will be so helpful. Cheers bud

[@jugomebu]

Been playing for hundreds of hours and I'm still learning.. Thanks so much Bash, your videos are always so well done and easy to understand

[@DaBirdiee]

Very well done video Bashierobe! I love that you kept the name “walk” for tip 10 😂

[@konstantinoskountousias3099]

another trick, you can use a fire to preserve meat raw or cooked but you can place it on a cooking slot only if its raw. It decay slower than the meat on the ground. I figure it out in my last loper longrun when i was returning to hunt a bear again after the 50 day respawn time i found cooked bear meat on fire above 0% and all other was ruined so i believe it decay 50% slower and probably it works with all meat type

[@konstantinoskountousias3099]

and that is a very usefull trick in misery because cooked meat under 75% can poison you even at lvl5 eating lvl lol

[@simon4321]

Haha The sped up video at the end makes that moose sound like a baby moose!

[@tinkertailor7385]

Ah, that's why you can stick feed an exposed fire on the ice in Coastal Highway most of the time, but not in Hushed River Valley, once the wind picks up. Now I know why. Thx Bash.

[@Fayreangel]

Very useful as always

[@illuminati1866]

Great info! Thx. Damn, I love Long Dark

[@Lithar1987]

As always, useful information

[@jamiereno]

Thank you for sharing as usual.

[@sixter4157]

The embers duration for existing fires explains the couple times I accidentally burned down to embers and I tried to add wood but the fire burned out. Once in a stove and once in a relit campfire. Thanks!

[@Sakja]

Wow, so many things about fire I didn't know! Thanks, Bashrobe. Appreciate you.

[@alexxx4434]

#5 @ 3:50 Is what I'm using right now, getting stranded in an Ash Valley transitional cave for the night due to the blizzard outside. The warmth from a torch is just enough to stay above freezing there, given that I just spawned into the region and have almost nothing.

[@almacarman4730]

If the fire starting skill is 5 and you can get 100% the loading screen of starting the fire prevents animals attacking you. Many a moose and bear have had to wait their turn to get shot point blank.

[@Halieustheendless56]

Bashrobe makes another awesome tip video :)

[@scarlet2847]

If you want to know when your in the inside or outside part of a cave just pay attention to your movement speed, when you slowdown your on the inside

[@Defiler0x]

I cant get the moose walk tip at the end to work, seems they fixed it? after the first fire stops the moose, no matter how far I walk away from the fire before the second charge it still ignores the fire completely.

[@Bashrobe]

Still works for me, were your campfires lit? Starting a campfire won't protect you from a charging moose (you might make it in time with accelerant).

[@Defiler0x]

@Bashrobe I must be doing it wrong, I had 3 campfires spaced out, would aggro the moose and run to the first fire. Moose pauses, then I move away from that first fire, aggro moose.. moose charges, run to second fire, moose doesn't give a F about the second fire lol

[@Sokol10]

8:48 - In FA airport shed when the gust wind hit take more than 10 minutes to chance direction, so the campfire die.

[@Bashrobe]

You're right, FA wind is weird, it's a similar case to SP. The wind there is not the same across the region. Except in SP even in lower wind areas the trick won't work as reliably, just like the other 4 regions. In FA, it will not work in the open area (which is most of the region really). It should still be usable around Junkers Paddock, Mindful Cabin, Justy's Hovel, or any caves on the edges, as the wind there should be normal like most regions.

[@mason-es3ot]

My first run I did interloper I survive three days now that I look back at it I'm kind of proud I new nothing about it and even if my average interloper run is about 60 days but still all those years of the forest helped.

[@BulgarIan-NatIonalistt]

thanks for the great video Bashrobe!

[@Havoc5637]

Love your videos, keep it up

[@strategieswithsasquatch]

Wow, good stuff. I had an Aurora bear maul me as i was setting a fire. So close to having been safe 😅

[@onkelvesemir6027]

Eyyy whats up bash 🎉❤

[@tuomasappelqvist7511]

You could make a video on how to hunt moose.

[@kevinfarias7065]

I’m on my last cheat death life bro; ima watch all your tips videos now 😭

[@ironinfidel7792]

Wow... a whole new level of TLD knowledge. How many hours of gameplay was needed to acquire this Bashrobe?

[@Bashrobe]

3.5k hours, though I like to datamine and science stuff, so not all of it is just playing normally. Discovering all of this passively would take significantly longer.

[@_De_Niro_]

You repeatedly mention the previous video. And which one exactly? Can I have a link or a title, please? And yes, thanks for the video, something was useful for me. For example, I didn't know that the temperature at which the bonfire time bonus is set depends on the temperature around the character.

[@Bashrobe]

It should pop up and be linked in the description, but maybe it doesn't show properly on all devices. It's the previous one 50 days on misery, the Frigid Bones section specifically is all about staying warm.

[@_De_Niro_]

@@Bashrobe Yeah, it's all clear now. Thanks! I'm going to take a look. And once again I want to thank you for your tutorial videos on the game. You explain the mechanics of the game very clearly and qualitatively. This is worthy of respect in our time, when many people cannot clearly explain how to get to the next store around the corner. Please release more of your videos! 🙂👍

[@konstantinoskountousias3099]

+1 i didnt knew half of that tricks. Firetime bonus can make your fire last twice the most and in late game in interloper you get the most if you are outside even if the fire is in the inside part of a cave. it doent work in buildings even without a loading screen, a fire inside just last normal time where ever you are

[@ArchimedesLP]

It absolutely does work in buildings without a loading screen. For example a fire burning in the fireplace at Mountaineer's Hut will last longer while you are outside the hut(provided of course that it's cold enough for the bonus to apply.) You can even set your bedroll up behind the hut to sleep in warmth range while getting the longer burn time, compared to sleeping inside.

[@Bashrobe]

@@ArchimedesLP Exactly, sleeping behind the hut is a fun way to extend the fuel duration and I used it on misery a bit, though the wolves in the area make me a little nervous, I probably need to build caches/travois behind to make it truly safe. Bricklayers is another great one.

[@ivan-denimak]

Bonus works for Fishing Huts stoves. Fire burns longer when you out.

[@konstantinoskountousias3099]

@@Bashrobe in misery i was using the indoor cave to sleep, the one close to clothes crates... its more central location than the hut and you can get full sleep without a fire...

[@Eddysmorphia]

Nice vudeo👍🏾

[@Kaiusername]

Average Bashrobe W.

[@konstantinoskountousias3099]

another trick is to use torches to warm up because their warmth stuck, 10 torches will give you +30C but you need to be away from a lighted fire....

[@konstantinoskountousias3099]

with lvl5 firestarting so its possible to stay warm in a cave of a fishing hut for a night during blizard with just 10 sticks for fuel, light a fire and put all sticks in then extract as mutch torches as fast as possible, when the embers die you ll get the warmth from torches, harvest the dead ones when they go out and just keep the last one to start the fire again without using a match and repeat...

[@Gravedigger92]

@@konstantinoskountousias3099 the temperature from the torches does not add up

[@konstantinoskountousias3099]

@@Gravedigger92 if you are close to a fire it doesnt but if you drop light torches on the ground it does

[@Bashrobe]

@@konstantinoskountousias3099 Yes, as you say as long as you're away from the fire it can be an efficient way to warm up, though it takes ages to light each torch and drop it away from the fire, but it can be nice to use when passing a car and being low on warmth etc.

[@konstantinoskountousias3099]

@@Bashrobe just continue to pull torches without droping them, when you pull 2nd 1st fall down etc but when done you have to wait for embers to go out then you get the free heat for 20-40'

[@alexxx4434]

Torches should absolutely not be allowed to be harvested back into stick. That's just ridiculous.
