The Forest Molotov Cocktail

The Molotov Cocktail has been a part of The Forest experience ever since the game came out. Used mainly as a mutant deterrent, the fiery bottle is vital to the survival of the main character. So, here is exactly how you can make The Forest’s Molotov Cocktail and set your enemies on fire.

Combining Booze with Cloth to get The Forest’s Molotov Cocktail

To craft a Molotov Cocktail in The Forest, players only require 1 Cloth and 1 Booze Bottle.

Cloth is frequently discovered inside luggage, at the sides of beaches, in cannibal communities, in cloth boxes in caves, especially in the Submerged Cave, and on effigies. Players can also find it randomly in a great number of other places all across the peninsula.

Players can find Booze all around the world of The Forest. They can use a handful of the many bottles found on the plane. This Booze is also waiting along the beach, in bags, and in caves.

Using the Backpack, you must combine (make) the Cloth and Booze as such:

  1. To open the Backpack, use the “I” key
  2. Right-click the Cloth
  3. Right-click the Booze Bottle
  4. To finish the crafting process, click the cog icon
  5. To add the Molotov to your inventory, click on it it
  6. To equip the Molotov, click on it again

The lighter can be used to light the Molotov while being held, and it can then be tossed in any chosen direction. It will burst and briefly ignite a small region if it is tossed against a solid object. It will deal scorching damage to the victim if it is thrown toward a mob. 

Additionally, the impact will ignite vegetation such as shrubs, tiny trees, and trees. Burned vegetation will become ash and won’t yield any sticks or logs.

The Forest’s Molotov Cocktail works well against most hostile NPCs, including mutants and dangerous wildlife. Nine Molotov cocktails are the most you can have in your possession at one time.

By carefully using many Molotov Cocktails, you may build a fire line that keeps mutants from crossing and may buy you some time to flee a dangerous region.
