RuneScape: Dragonwilds is an Open World Survival game where players have to gather, build, fight, and craft to survive on the forgotten continent of Ashenfall. Like any other Crafting Survival game, your character will have a couple of meters that indicate their daily needs. In RuneScape: Dragonwilds, they’re stamina, hunger, and thirst meters.

In order for your character to survive Ashenfall, you need to stay on top of these three needs, making sure their meters are always filled. You need to rest to fill your Stamina meter, eat to fill the hunger meter, and drink water to fill your thirst meter. However, not every source of water in Ashenfall is pure. So, here’s how to get clean water in RuneScape: Dragonwilds.

How To Get Clean Water in RuneScape: Dragonwilds

how to collect water in runeScape dragonwilds

To get clean water in RuneScape: Dragonwilds, you have to purify dirty water. First, go to a nearby river or a lake and press the collect water button to obtain dirty water.

You can collect as much dirty water as you want, but be mindful of the weight of the items.

However, keep in mind that drinking dirty water is not ideal. While it slightly fills the character’s thirst meter, it also slowly poisons them. So, it’s better for the character to find a way to purify the water before drinking it in RuneScape: Dragonwilds.

How to Purify Water

You should find a source of fire to purify water in RuneScape: Dragonwilds. The earliest source of fire is building a campfire that cost nine ash logs and four stones. It also needs to be exposed, which means the character can’t build it inside a shelter. You can easily collect stones and ash logs from all over the forest areas without having to craft a stone Pickaxe and a stone Logging Axe to chop trees and mine stones.

Build the campfire and place ash logs inside it to light up its fire. You always want to add ash logs inside the campfire to cook or purify anything. After that, drag the dirty water to the empty box above the ash log. Press the play button, and the campfire will start processing clean water.

The processed water will automatically drop on the ground. In a co-op game, your co-op teammates may accidentally pick it up as they come close to the campfire.

Now that your character has clean water in RuneScape: Dragonwilds, they can drink it without risking poisoning themselves.
