There are a variety of spells and items that ignite flamable objects. There is not a huge amount of guidance on what this means. How have DMs ruled it?
Let's say a 1st level firebolt that deals 1 damage will not destroy a large flamable object in one shot - but it would ignite it per the description. When does it take more damage? How much?
