If you took an arrow and replaced the metal arrowhead with an arrowhead-shaped glass jar filled with (somewhat stable) wildfire, how effective would such a thing be? How about something similar scaled up to a ballista? Because the usual method of tossing pots with catapults seems terribly inaccurate, and Tyrion’s suicide bomber ship method only works so many times…

Well, the arrow-sized one would seem to multiply the problems of the catapult – more people handling a weapon means more chances for someone to drop one and set the city on fire. 

And ballistas aren’t particularly more accurate than catapults.
