How to unlock the Flambé achievement in Mafia III: Definitive Edition - Definitive Guide

This can be done in the second mission after fighting Baka. You will need to fight through enemies to escape the church and the area. The game will introduce you to molotovs and one of the enemies outside of the church will have molotovs to throw at you. Be sure to shoot him as he begins his throw, timing it right will cause him to set himself on fire. Now restart the checkpoint, or allow yourself to die and rinse and repeat 10 times.

Here is a video guide with English commentary for this achievement!

There are more enemies with molotovs; this was just the area where I decided to do it. This shows the general idea of how to do it, I'm sure there are other locations to grind this out.

Thanks man. Worked flawlessly and only took 8 checkpoint loads (there are two guys who always throw molotovs on the right and center).

Thanks for the guide. For me, it was a lot of checkpoints, because they either threw the molotovs out of cover, or rushed me and did not throw anything. But it worked in the end.

I completed two full plays of this game and had still not managed to earn this achievement despite shooting plenty of Molotov throwers.
Half an hour with your solution and about 8 checkpoint loads and it finally popped.
Great solution, thanks.

Hi, good solution :-) I was using a wrong rifle (killing them instantly) then with the pistol it worked. The saving logo on the top right is a way to confirm that you get it right.

Just a tip. To me it seems like they are throwing more regularly when you stay near that pillar (or whatever i should call it) to the left

Great advice about sticking to the left and reloading checkpoint.

Depending on enemy position, I sometimes got 3 in one run but mostly 1-2 if you go immediately left and angle yourself so you can still shoot from the small gap.

- You should stay near to the left column as WerferAkrobat7 mentoined (big thx). Just make sure the column is on the left of your screen when aiming, that's all. Much bigger chance to throwing molotovs.
- Throwing mostly from the right side, above the car's hood.
- They doing the same movements every time.
- Do not use High Auto Aim. Use Low or Off.
- You can use Load Checkpoint from the pause menu, suicide not needed.

In this way I got 10 kills in 15 mins.

Hey, guys and gals.

Just a note on this one. If you happen to miss the awesome grind spot in the above solutions, as I did, you can unlock this across multiple playthroughs. I just started my second run and unlocked it after shooting one Molotov guy. I was a little relieved. 😊

During enemy battles, listen out for them to say "throw a Molotov" and other similar dialog. You should see an enemy about to throw a Molotov and in this moment shoot (preferably with a pistol) them in the body to make them stumble. They will drop the Molotov and in many cases they should die from it. Just make sure not to shoot too much.

Another tip is to spare an enemy or two and stay in cover. Wait and sometimes they will throw a Molotov. The enemy needs to be within a reasonable distance from you to throw a Molotov. I find the enemies without hats are most likely to throw Molotovs.

It should also be mentioned that this achievement is cumulative across playthroughs. I popped it late in my second playthrough and I didn't get more than a half-dozen of those kills in either playthrough so it must be cumulative.

The BEST and EASIEST way to actually grind this is if you have the "Faster Baby!" DLC..........it's a short DLC and this mission is almost the last.........

The mission is called, "Ain't Nowhere Safer"..........After a cut scene, you will need to escape, kill the cops with headshots ASAP.......and let the "Rednecks" try to throw a Molotov, if they get too close just kill them........

There are three opportunities in this mission to get these kills

Now to grind this, once you get to the part where you need to get into Roxy's car.....DON"T!!!!! Let Slim escape, and just abort the mission, just restart it, and rinse and repeat!!!

The only real bad thing about this method is the cut-scenes, but at least you are GUARANTEED a few Molotov kills each run through.......

Hope this helps!!!

I made a clip how can be done this achievement. Second chapter near begining of the game.
Hint: use pistol to be sure not kill your enemy. Shoot once and he will drop Molotov. After enemy died reload from checkpoint and repeat. It is count. Here is two guys who fight with Molotovs.

EASY WAY.....
When you unlock the dart gun in Stones Unturned DLC, just shoot the enemy with the dart gun as they are about to throw it. It will cause the enemy to drop the Molotov and set them on fire as they fall asleep. Very easy doing it this way.

I did this trophy in one sitting to unlock it. The Haitian mission after killing Baka is a suitable location to farm this trophy. Since it's glitched, you will need to start a new game again until you killed Baka.

Engage some enemies and take cover. Enemies with a pistol will tend to throw Molotovs at you after hiding in cover for a while and will shout to signal before doing so. It takes awhile between signal and the actual throw animation so quickly pop out of cover and shoot the guy lighting a Molotov and he’ll drop it thereby burning himself to a fiery death. This is best attempted in the earlier stages of the game before you've conquered half of the 9 districts. In the latter stages, the enemies upgrade to throw grenades and will no longer throw molotovs.

This trophy is cumulative across all playthroughs. You can easily get 2-3 kills during the tutorial mission to kill Baka if you miss it the first time around.
