What to do
The Molotov is strongest after a blower or rake has compressed scattered leaves into one tight pile. Aim at the center, keep the pile away from a wall split, and save manual cleanup for the small outer ring.
Use the Molotov efficiently by clustering leaves, choosing a safe central landing point, fixing scattered edges and avoiding low-value throws in Clean All the Leaves.
The Molotov is strongest after a blower or rake has compressed scattered leaves into one tight pile. Aim at the center, keep the pile away from a wall split, and save manual cleanup for the small outer ring.

An area effect cannot compensate for leaves spread across an entire room. Use broad blower passes to create one collection lane, then short controlled pushes to compress it into a dense target.

Aim for the visual center rather than the nearest edge. A pile split by a wall, doorway or object wastes coverage, so reposition it into open ground when possible. Use the current targeting indicator as the authority for range and placement.
After the effect resolves, do not use another large action automatically. Walk the perimeter, pick up isolated leaves and rake any surviving cluster toward the next job. This prevents a nearly finished room from becoming another scattering cycle.
Do not use it on a sparse corridor, one missing leaf or a pile that the vent can accept with one controlled push. Its advantage is concentrated density, not universal speed.
Only for an appropriately dense pile. Preparation and landing position determine whether its area is useful.
The pile may have exceeded the effective area or been split by geometry. Check the outer ring and finish it with a precise tool.
This page uses observations from linked public gameplay footage and cross-checks the official Roblox experience description. A cited video observation is not the same as a current live-game verification: exact prices, rewards, timers and mechanics may change, so the live game UI takes priority.
Claims without a matching timestamp or current in-game check should be treated as provisional. The live game UI takes priority for update-sensitive details.
