Lanterns are extremely useful utility items which grant a portable long lasting flame fueled by candles. A lit Lantern will burn for around 100 real-life hours, during which you can right-click it onto objects like campfires, cauldrons or smelters to light them.
Place a lit Lantern in your inventory will extinguish it, but you can simply hang it on your hip in either the 6L or 6R Pouch slot to keep it alight, meaning you'll never have to craft a stubborn Firebrand again as long as you have access to tallow or wax.
You can also place them on Lantern Hangers and Lantern Stands.
How to use
Crafting a lantern requires a bar of any metal as well as two Glass Panes, which require Quicksilver to make. It must be forged on an anvil.
After crafting a Lantern, right click either a tallow or wax candle onto it to fully fuel it. Then simply light it with a firebrand, match, spark, or by right clicking the lantern onto a lit fire.
Equip the lit Lantern in right or left hand slot, or hang it on your hip in either Pouch slot. Don't place it in your inventory; that extinguishes it.
The lantern will provide light and flame for around two in-game weeks, or just around 100 real-life hours.
