Food has no purpose outside of basing unless you are streaking, and you wont have somebody next to you that will be like "Oh crap doood you almost dead let me pull out my flint and some wood for ya" So yeah, food is only used in basing mostly

Wrong.

With foods removal that will be the exact thing that happens. Whether or not they're healing themselves or others, it'll heal anyone in that radius.

This would also allow us to add on some changes to the actual burning of wood such as greater healing rates on each log and different kinds of ashes.

So you have to hope someone has fire, with food you can rely on yourself you don't have to wait for someone to heal you, and you shouldn't sacrifice food for fire. Plus you should upgrade jobs wether there is food or not that's kinda your job dude

You wouldn't have to hope. Food is the dominant source of food inside bases.
Remove Food = Fire is the reliable source because it would be the only source.

Fire as dominant = a few more things we can add to the fires since it is now the reliable source of healing.

Make it only heal allied/gang players aswell then please.

Honestly this would make olwest more of an mmorpg which I like. You can actually have people ready with heals to heal your team back up  

If you make the fire heal me as fast as food, fire to be cheap, not time consuming, easy to handle, guarantee everyone will have fire even myself then go ahead but I shouldn't wait 30 seconds to get the same amount of hp as if I used food plus fire can be broken by anyone

Fire is an instant AoE (Area of effect) heal which means fire is a lot more op for basing if you combine it with teamwork (In theory you could be close to invincible if you have multiple healers)

Since fire has the area effect it would not heal as fast a food. The whole purpose food should be removed in the first place in bases is because it heals too fast. And instead of just making the timer on it longer, we can remove it completely and implement fire as the main source. Promoting it also promotes the firemaking skill in general because right now it's pretty useless.

You feel me?

Or get rid of that useless skills and keep food because it's more important.

Well we got our clerics... XD Just like you have food to rely on your self with, you can have fire. And also, the freebie should give out fire logs(connot be sold) instead of food ;P

If your going to do this fix the woodcutting skill first and add another tree. Main reason why no one woodcuts is because its the hardest leveling skill ATM because there's only 6 types of trees which means longer to advance to the next tree and you guys nerfing mining and woodcutting didn't help at all of getting people "hooked" to the job now everyone going to fish when water is back cause you have fish that give 50 gralats and you got sea chest that give you a chance for a kraken which is another 30k right there. Only reason why I would go back to woodcutting now is eathier you advance prices on woodcutting and mining or you nerf fishing prices and give mining and woodcutting a type of chest as well and call the one you get from woodcutting bee hive for example and mining (well idk what you would name it but you Get the point)  

Food should be removed in bases, and if it is not in the short-term, then at least remove it when the healing staffs/weapons are released (cant remember if they were going to release a healing weapon actually).
But if a healing weapon is released, then both that and firemaking will be used, and have a more strategic basing, without food.
This also means, more gralats will be spent on buying the healing weapon, and firemaking will become more common.
The healing weapon should also be able to heal others, and not yourself.  

so you want one guy with a weapon healing 8+ allies for free and make foods useless so you don't have to waste any money?
