Charcoal is a drainable item that can be used up to 10 times.

Usage

Charcoal is used as a source of fuel for various heat sources. The burn time is 30 minutes of fuel with each use.

It is recommended to save charcoal until after the electricity has shut off, as until then ovens can be used instead.

Obtaining

Charcoal can be sustainably gained by putting 5 logs directly from your inventory into a Metal Drum and lighting it, similarly to a campfire.

Distribution

The loot distributions can be found in the table(s) below.

Effective chance calculations are based off of default loot settings, and median zombie density. The higher the density of zombies in an area, the higher the effective chance of an item spawning. Chance is also influenced by the lucky and unlucky traits.
