What Is the Hytale Goblin Flamethrower?
The Goblin Flamethrower is a makeshift contraption with a candle strapped to one end and, most notably, a jar containing what appears to be a captured Living Spark — one of Hytale’s fire spirit mobs. The eye visible inside the jar matches the Living Spark’s eye exactly, suggesting goblins trapped a living creature and weaponized it as fuel. u.gg That lore detail alone makes it one of the most interesting items in the game.

What Can You Do With It?

Grass ignites and fire spreads across open terrain, but it does NOT leap over blocks or gaps, preventing runaway wildfires. u.gg
