Throwable Fire Charges Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I craft fireballs?
Use the crafting recipe shown in the mod wiki to combine the required materials. Once crafted, fireballs appear in your inventory and are ready to throw.
How do I throw a fireball?
Hold a fireball in your hand and use it like you would a snowball or egg—right-click to throw it. The fireball will travel through the air and explode on impact.
What happens when a fireball hits something?
The fireball produces a TNT-like explosion that breaks nearby blocks, deals damage to mobs and players, and ignites a small radius of fire around the impact point.
Can I use fireballs to break through walls?
Yes, fireballs are effective for terrain clearing and breaking blocks. However, be aware that the explosion has a limited radius, so you may need multiple fireballs for large structures.
Do fireballs damage me if I'm too close?
Yes, the explosion can harm you if you're nearby, so throw fireballs from a safe distance or use them strategically in combat to avoid taking damage yourself.
Can I store fireballs in a chest?
Yes, fireballs stack in your inventory and can be stored in chests like any other item, making it easy to build up a supply for combat or terrain work.
Do fireballs work underwater?
Fireballs will still explode when they hit blocks or entities underwater, though the fire spread may be limited by water mechanics.
Can I use fireballs against the Ender Dragon or Wither?
Fireballs deal damage like any other projectile weapon, so they can be used against bosses, though their effectiveness depends on your aim and positioning.
Do fireballs cause lag or performance issues?
Fireballs use standard Minecraft explosion mechanics, so performance impact is minimal unless you're throwing many at once in a small area.
Are there any enchantments that work with fireballs?
Fireballs are treated as throwable projectiles similar to snowballs and eggs, so they may not benefit from traditional weapon enchantments, but they function independently as their own item type.
