Windrose Animal Fat: How to Recharge Your Lamp
In brief
In Windrose, the lamp is essential for exploring caves, but it drains quickly (10-20 minutes). This article explains how to recharge it at the workbench with animal fat and where to find this valuable resource by hunting boars.
In Windrose, you need light to navigate in the dark and explore caves. The lamp is therefore an essential tool, but it also burns through fuel very quickly. This article will explain how to keep your lamp in working order.
How to recharge your lamp
It runs, on average, between 10 and 20 minutes before running out. To recharge your lamp in Windrose, you need to go to a workbench. Once at the workbench, look in the top left corner and click on the “recharge” tab; for a full recharge, you need 3 units of animal fat.

How to get animal fat
Animal fat is a resource you get almost exclusively by hunting boars; these animals can be found fairly easily when you head a bit further into the land near your starting point. Boars aren't rare, but it's a good idea to hunt them continuously to stockpile this resource, given that a slain boar generally yields one or two units of animal fat.
