Gunpowder is a volatile powder that most often appears in large piles in the Coal Pits, but can occasionally spawn in other biomes as well (though this is rare).
There are 2 variants of this material, one that explodes and one that only burns, but they are called the same thing when mouse-overed in the game. Generally speaking, the variant that spawns naturally is always the one that explodes, whereas the variant that only burns comes from the Gunpowder Trail modifier.
More information[]
- There are only two spells that produces the exploding variant, being the Gunpowder Arc and Firecrackers modifiers. As the powder from them explode immediately it is not useful for Alchemy.
- The large explosive crates in the Hiisi Base contain explosive gunpowder.
- Like most explosives, exploding gunpowder can set creatures on fire.
Trivia[]
The exploding variant is sometimes known as Firecrackers, just like the spell.
