How it works

Pyrokinesis blesses a Runic sword with fire at a glance. Aim at a block or a creature and right-click. The first thing along your sightline catches fire for three seconds. Each kindling spends a charge.

Reach grows with the Tier of the pattern, from 16 blocks at Tier 1 to 64 at Tier 7. Nothing within reach kindles.

Tips

Kindling an obsidian frame lights a Nether portal from a distance.
