The Firestarting Block is a small dry block made to help get a fire going. It is a piece of camping gear that the game counts as survival gear.
It suits anyone who cooks or keeps warm over open fires. It is light and small, so a few fit in any pack.
The block is found in camping stores, hunting lodges, pawn shops and survivor caches.
Locations
Survivor caches are the best place, with a block in a survivor crate almost one time in five. Camping stores and camping storage hold one about one time in six. Hunting lodge counters and shelves are just as good. Pawn shops and closets turn one up fairly often. Army surplus stores, fishing storage, sheds and garage crates hold them now and then. Tents in the wild sometimes have one inside.
