Fireplaces or gas masks and braziers are your friends.

You know what’s really fun? The inventory automatically sorts things by category, then alphabetically. I can’t tell you the number of times I accidentally burned down a building I was trying to break into because “lighter” was typically right before “lockpick”.

Name your lighter ‘Rethgil’. It even sounds like an Angband artefact.

I always reassign commonly used items. My sewing kit, for example, is a, because it will be the number one spammed item early-midgame before I’ve gotten to the point I can reinforce everything.

Does no one use woodstoves anymore? Am I the only one? All the let’s players and all the king’s men never use them. They’re so cheap and useful it blows my mind.

I’ll use a woodstove if I find one in a secure location, such as a basement, but otherwise, dragging them takes too much time and makes too much noise, and grinding the (now obsolete) construction skill just for a woodstove when burning on the ground produced the same effect honestly felt a tremendous waste of time. Of course, construction has been removed as of the latest build, so it’s probably been changed to a fabrication based furniture now, and I usually grind fabrication to at least 3 within the first week (so long as a character lasts that long), which means I might start making them now.

Woodstoves are something that I do actually use often. A brazier’s fine if it’s just like, the evac shelter or something. And I’m very thorough about making sure that the item I click on is the right one beforehand, heh. Haven’t reassigned a single inventory slot in all the time I’ve played Cata.

Stoves improve fire efficiency: once the fire has nothing to consume, it dies at extra speed (3 times at fast), unless it is in a stove or fireplace.
