Lamp Oil
Lamp Oil is the fuel used to refill an Oil Lamp in Windrose. The game does not treat it as a separate bottle or crafting output. Instead, the refill is performed directly at a Workbench through the Refill/Repair tab.
How to Get Lamp Oil
Carry 3 Animal Fat in your inventory for a full refill.
Open the Refill/Repair tab, which is separate from the normal recipe list.
Confirm the refill and the lamp returns to your inventory fully topped up.
Animal Fat Sources
The reliable early source of Animal Fat is wild pigs. Boars and Sows on the starter islands can provide enough fat for early cave runs, while later boar variants on nearby islands can drop multiple pieces at a time.

Using a Refilled Lamp
Once refilled, the lamp behaves like a portable tool. Equip it from the hotbar when exploring dark caves, ruins, or late-night shorelines. This is the main lighting option for underground resource runs where a Bonfire cannot help.
Getting the Lamp Itself
If you do not already own one, the Oil Lamp can be crafted at the Workbench once you can make Copper Ingots, or looted from the shipwreck at Pirate Remains.
