Lit torch detail

An unlit torch may be used with a tinderbox to get a lit torch. It is useful for dark tunnels and smoking Hunter traps once lit. 39 Hunter is required to smoke traps. Smoking traps increases the chance of catching a creature by 2%.[1]

Unlit torches are dropped by many cave dwelling creatures including the level 49 and level 76-78 Catablepons, and Cave slimes.

Unlit torches can sometimes be found inside barrels.

They can also be purchased from these stores:

A torch is a light source that can be purchased in cities such as Dorgesh-Kaan, Shilo Village, Tai Bwo Wannai, or Yanille as an unlit torch. They are lit with a tinderbox.
