A fire charge is an item that can be used as a single-use version of a flint and steel or shot as a small fireball from a dispenser.

Despite firing small fireballs, blazes do not drop fire charges.

Bartering

[edit | edit source]

When given a gold ingot, piglins have a ~8.53% (40⁄469) chance to barter a single fire charge.

Natural occurrence

[edit | edit source]

During ominous trials, each ominous trial spawner has a 1⁄5 chance to dispense a fire charge on top of either a player or a mob it spawns. The fire charge is directly dispensed into the world and cannot be obtained in the inventory.

Usage

[edit | edit source]

Dispenser

[edit | edit source]
πŸ‘ Image
Dispensed small fireball

Fire charges can be used as ammunition in dispensers. When a fire charge is fired from a dispenser, it shoots a small fireball. However, a player cannot simply use a fire charge while holding it to shoot a small fireball.

When used, a fire charge instantly places a fire, similar to flint and steel. But, unlike flint and steel, the fire charge is consumed in the process. It can prime TNT and light nether portals, campfires, candles, cakes with candles, and creepersβ€Œ[Java Edition only].
