What are potions for in Minecraft?

They help the character move around the world faster (acceleration potion), see well in the dark (night vision potion), give him the ability to breathe underwater (underwater breathing potion), and also develop other abilities and skills.

Preparing for Potions

Before how to brew potions in Minecraft, you need to craft (make) a brewing stand, a cauldron and a flask. Water is also necessary for their preparation. It can be obtained by going with a flask to any source of water supply or storing a sufficient amount of water in the boiler.

Types of potions

All potions in the game are divided into basic (primary) potions, potions of 1st and 2nd degrees.

Primary or basic potions for the most part do not have any effects, but serve as the basis for preparing potions of other levels.
Second-level potions are formed when a new element is added to the base potion. They have certain effects and properties, but not to the maximum extent.
Tertiary potions have maximum properties and effects and are obtained by using a reagent.

Primary Potions
As mentioned above, these potions have no effects and serve as an ingredient for other potions.

Mundane (sea) potion
There are six ways to prepare this potion. However, the best are the following two:

Place a container of water in the cooking rack (bottom cells), and put a spider's eye on top and cook.

We prepare it in the same way as in the first version, only we place sugar in the top cell.

Also, the ingredients of this potion can be: sparkling watermelon, ghast tear, magma clot and fire powder, but these elements are too expensive.

Awkward Potion in Minecraft
It can only be prepared one way. Place a flask of water on the cooking surface (lower cells), place the hellish growth on top and cook. This base potion is an ingredient for potions such as healing and fire resistance.

How to brew a thick potion in Minecraft
This potion is also prepared in only one way. A container of water is placed on the cooking stand, and glow dust is placed in the upper cell and cooked. Such a potion serves as the basis for creating a potion of weakness (just like a mundane one).

Potions with effects (main types)
Such potions after brewing in Minecraft Give the character special abilities and effects.

Potion of Strength
Method of preparation: place the awkward potion at the bottom of the cooking stand, add fire powder to the top cell and cook.

This potion gives 130% damage and lasts for three minutes. However, its duration can be extended to 8 minutes if you strengthen the potion in the following way: place a bottle of strength potion in the brewing stand (lower cells), and place red dust in the upper cell. A potion enhanced in this way lasts five minutes longer.

In addition, it is possible to increase the damage dealt by the potion by up to 260%. To do this, place a bottle with a regular strength potion in the brewing stand (lower cells), and glowing dust above. The duration of action of such a potion is one and a half minutes, but its strength will increase by 2 times.

Potion of Fire Resistance
Method of preparation: place the awkward potion in the bottom cell of the brewing stand, place a magma clot at the top and cook.

By drinking a potion of fire resistance, the player becomes immune to fire and lava. The effect of the potion is three minutes.

Its duration can be increased to 8 minutes by placing the potion in the brewing rack (lower cells) and adding red dust to the upper cell.

How to brew a Potion of Poison in Minecraft
Way making a potion in Minecraft: place the awkward potion on the cooking stand (lower cells), add spider gas to the upper cell and cook.

If your player drinks such a potion, he will become poisoned and begin to lose health. However, this potion is prepared mainly for enemies. It can be thrown at a monster, after which it will be poisoned. In order for a potion to be thrown, it must be made explosive. To do this, put a poisoning potion into the cooking surface (lower cells), add a threshold into the upper cell and cook. It is worth noting that in this way absolutely any potion can be made explosive.

A regular poison potion lasts 45 seconds and reduces health to 0.5 units. You can increase the action time by placing a flask with a poisoning potion in a brewing stand, put red dust at the top and cook. This potion will take effect within two minutes.

It is possible to prepare a poisoning potion with one damage (lasting 22 seconds). To do this, put a poisoning potion (without enhancement) into the hob, and place glowing dust in the top cell.

These are the basic principles of potions. In fact, in their cooking in the game Minecraft there is nothing complicated, and even a novice player can easily cope with this task.

Potions that are used to make other potions. They are not used in any way except for making other potions.

Name	Ingredients	Action	Crafting ingredient
	Seeds of hellish growth, flask of water.	-	, fire resistance, , strength, swiftness.
	Red dust (in place of the red dust you can put: a sparkling slice of watermelon, a spider's eye or fire powder), a flask of water.	-	Weakness (weakened).
Thick.	Light dust, flask of water.	-	Weakness.

Health

Here are potions for all kinds of operations with your health. A regular heart in the “Duration” row means that health will be restored throughout this time. A pale heart in the same row means that your health will decrease all this time. If the duration row says “0:00”, then the effect of the potion is instantaneous.

Name	Ingredients	Action	Duration (minutes)
	Ghast's Tear, .	Replenishing health.	0:45
	Sparkling slice of watermelon, .	Replenishes health.	0:00
	Spider Eye, .	Reduces the player's health to level .	0:45
	Red dust, .	Replenishing health.	2:00
	Glowdust, .	Replenishing health.	0:22
	Glowdust, .	Replenishes health.	0:00
Poisoning (intensified).	Red dust, .	Reducing the player's health. Lowest health - . Speed: minus half a heart per second.	2:00
	Glowdust, .	Reduces the player's health. Lowest health - . Speed: minus heart per second.	0:22

Now you can create elixirs that temporarily increase characteristics or restore health. When creating potions in the game, trophies from most monsters are used (previously these items were not needed, but were still present in the world). For example, from the spider eye, which was added in version 1.9, you can create an elixir that allows you to breathe underwater. In addition to items dropped by monsters, crafting potions will require water, sugar, and probably a glass jar. Most of the ingredients can be obtained in the Lower World: Ghasts drop tears, and Ifrits drop fire rods, from which you can get two portions of fire powder.

Potions are divided not only by type, but also by quality. From the names of the elixir you can understand what kind of effect it has. In total, there are about 400 recipes in the game (possibly much more). You can create elixirs using a cauldron and a tripod, which will be introduced in the completed version 1.9.

Recipes

Elixirs of positive action

From the tears of the ghasts, the player will be able to obtain a level 1 health elixir, which will instantly restore some of the character’s lives. For a level two potion, you need to mix sugar, a hellish wart and a ball of mucus. The third level health elixir can be obtained from all of the above components, but in addition to the slime ball, you should use fire powder.

In order to swim freely in lava, you can create a potion of fire resistance. The player cannot be set on fire by anything for three minutes. The duration of action may vary depending on the ingredients used. To create such a potion, you will need magma mucus, which will probably fall out from magma cubes (analogous to slugs, but in the Nether).

Potion recipes can be crossed, experimenting to obtain a high-quality elixir that gives several boosts at once. So, if you mix magma mucus and ghast tear, you can get an elixir that gives resistance to fire and restores most of your health. If, say, sugar increases speed for a while, then by crossing it with a ghast tear, you can get a healing potion of speed.

To swim in lava for about three minutes with impunity, you can mix a spider eye, water and magma mucus. The character will receive not only resistance to fire, but also the ability to breathe underwater.

Elixirs of influence

The use of some elixirs can lead to unpleasant consequences. Let's say if you mix sugar, water, a fermented spider eye and a hellish wart, your speed will increase, your health will increase, and your resistance to fire will improve. A side effect of such a potion is hunger, which will end in only a minute and a half.

Elixirs of influence can cause instant damage to the player, slow them down for a while, and can even poison them. Now players will be able to build their own laboratories and conduct experiments there, mixing the necessary ingredients in different proportions to improve the effect of the elixir.

If you drink milk, the effect of the potion will not be (if you try to get under the influence of the potion).

IPhone 4S is perhaps the best IPhone. In memory of Steve Jobs.

Before we tell you how to make a potion, let’s figure out what it is and why it is needed in Minecraft at all. We will also tell you how to find the necessary ingredients for their preparation and how to mix ready-made mixtures with powders to enhance the effect.

What are potions?

In the game, they are craftable objects that have varying temporary effects on the player they are applied to. By mixing different ingredients with water, many types of potions can be created that can harm, heal, or buff the player or opponents.

A potion can only have one effect at a time: for example, it cannot heal a player and increase their running speed at the same time. To get both, you need to alternately drink two different potions: healing and swiftness.

Since the changes were made in Minecraft 1.9 Beta Prerelease 2, there are a number of potions that are not used and cannot be prepared. But they can be obtained using the “/give” command; they are not found in the game in any other way. Many of them are simple potions no longer used, such as cleansing or strength. Therefore, we will not talk about them in this article.

To create potions, you need to place the required ingredients on the brewing stand. We'll talk about how to craft a stand below.

How to make a potion in Minecraft

They are created by cooking with water and different ingredients, offering a variety of effects. There is one basic and twelve basic ones. You can improve their duration, effectiveness and coverage area.

1. Creating a brew stand

The Brewing Stand is needed to create all types of potions in Minecraft. To create it, follow these steps:

Right-click on the workbench;
Fill the bottom row with cobblestones;
Place one fire rod in the middle.

To craft a brewing stand, all you need is one fire rod and three cobblestones.

Cobblestones can be easily found by mining underground. Fire rods can only be found in the Nether when killing Ifrit, a hostile mob that attacks fireballs.

This is Ifrit, his breathing can be heard from afar. Ifrits usually live in Nether fortresses.

To get to the Lower World you need an appropriate portal.

To create it, you need to create a frame from obsidian blocks (4x5) and set it on fire with flint.

Here is a good video on creating a portal to Hell, and in general it contains a lot of useful information about going to the Nether:

It is worth saying that for cooking you can use a cauldron, which is crafted from seven iron ingots. But due to the inconvenience of use, it gave way to the cooking stand.

The cauldron did not take root in the game due to its inconvenience. The developers promise to come up with other uses for it in the future.

Right-clicking on a rack reveals four slots:

The bottom three slots are for vials or potions, and the top one is for an ingredient.

This one ingredient is poured into three vials at the bottom, allowing you to create three bottles of potion from one ingredient. To use the brewing stand, the vials must always be filled with water or a potion; if they are empty, then nothing will happen. A bottle of blue water, as in the picture above, an empty bottle is transparent, as in the picture below:

To craft a bubble you need three glass blocks. These will make three bubbles.

3. Brew an awkward potion

Awkward is the base ingredient for most other Minecraft potions. It can be made on a brew bench using a vial of water and hellwart seeds.

These seeds are found in the Nether, where they grow in blocks of soul sand.

Hellish growth is generated in the fortresses of the Lower World in places specially designated for them (reminiscent of beds), as well as in chests.

If the player carries a block of soul sand and hell wart seeds through the Nether portal to the top, then he can begin to grow the wart himself to produce potions. The growth grows in any biome, as long as the soil is soul sand.

The awkward potion is prepared as follows:

Right-click on the brewing stand;
Place the Nether Wart Seeds in the top slot;
Place the water bottle on the bottom row.

By placing one Hellgrowth Seed and three Water Vials, you will receive three Awkward.

The brewing stand will take approximately 19 seconds to create a potion after placing the ingredient and bubbles into it.

Accordingly, you need one hellish growth seed to create three basic potions. Awkward itself has no properties and is only used to make other potions.

4. Combine base potion with ingredients

Once you've created a few awkward vials, you can start creating basic potions that will have various effects like increased strength, health, underwater vision, or even invisibility. They will require a variety of ingredients beyond Hellwart Seeds, such as Fire Powder, Lava Cream, and Ghast Tears.

It will take a lot of traveling to collect the necessary ingredients. The table below describes the main potions and their ingredients.

Basics	Basic Potion	Ingredients	Description of action
Fire Resistance	Awkward	Lava cream	Fire for 3 minutes does not cause harm
Harm	Poisoning/treatment	Cooked Spider Eye	Deals 3 damage
Treatments	Awkward	Shiny melon	Heals 2 health units
Invisibility	Night vision	Cooked Spider Eye	Invisibility for 3 minutes
Night vision	Awkward	Golden carrot	Night vision for 3 minutes
Poisoning	Awkward	Spider Eye	Deals damage over 45 seconds.
Regeneration	Awkward	Ghast Tear	Restores 9 health points in 45 seconds.
Slowness	Celerity	Cooked Spider Eye	Slows speed for 4 minutes
Powers	Awkward	Fire rod	Increases damage dealt for 3 minutes
Celerity	Awkward	Sugar	Increases speed for 3 minutes
Breathing underwater	Awkward	Puffer fish	Grants underwater breathing for 3 minutes
Weaknesses	Awkward	Cooked Spider Eye	Reduces half-time damage for one and a half minutes

As you can see, awkwardness is the basis of most basic potions.

They can increase damage dealt to enemies. Certain potions are useful for certain situations, for example, fire resistance helps in fighting mobs like Ifrit in the Nether. In a multiplayer game, stealth is a great way to sneak past enemies. The ability to create potions is a very useful skill in Minecraft.

Combining potions with powders

The effects of many potions can be enhanced, making them more effective and increasing their duration. Combination with powders allows, for example, to increase the duration of regeneration or turn a slow potion into an explosive one, increasing the number of targets hit.

Powders are the pureed remains of solid materials. To enhance primary potions, you need red dust, light dust and gunpowder.

Strengthening and Ingredients

Making basic potions with these three powders enhances their effects.

Like many ingredients, glow dust is found in the Nether. You will have to find a Glowstone, which looks like a block with yellow speckles.

Very often these blocks are located on the ceiling of deep caves, which complicates their extraction. They turn into light dust already at the workbench.

Red dust is mined underground from red ore.

Red ore can be smelted, but placing it on the ground and using an iron pickaxe will give you up to five units of red dust.

Gunpowder cannot be mined: it can be obtained by killing creepers (the probability of gunpowder falling out of them is 66%), witches (only 16%) and ghasts (also 66%), and can also be found in dungeon chests (the probability of gunpowder falling out is completely random, but this is the most safe way). It is best to hunt ghasts, since they also drop “ghast tears”, which are used in potions.

Hunting ghasts is the most effective way to obtain gunpowder, but also the most dangerous. And the sounds made by the ghast cannot be expressed in words at all...

Potions Recipes

Recipes for making potions differ slightly in different versions of Minecraft. Above we described the main points of their creation and what is needed for this. It is simply unrealistic to list all existing recipes within the framework of this article. Moreover, with the release of new versions of the game, recipes may change and be supplemented with new ingredients. Therefore, here we will leave a link to a very good resource, where up-to-date information on potions, information about all ingredients and reagents is always posted.

Potions help during difficult moments in Minecraft, especially in boss battles and multiplayer maps. The secret lava hideout can only be accessed with fire resistance, or you can install a sprayer that will throw a poison potion at anyone who steps on the pressure plate. As you can see, the thing is very useful, but it requires a trip to the Lower World.

And remember, you don’t have to wait until the potion wears off. You can get rid of the effects of potions by drinking a bucket of milk.

Any player who deeply studies Minecraft sooner or later comes to the conclusion that it is impossible to complete the game without potions. After all, the final boss is a dragon, very strong, and the interfering Endermen do not allow passage. To obtain potions you will need special equipment. Today we will look at how to make a cooking stand in Minecraft.

First ingredient

Let's start with the basics. Before you make a cooking stand in Minecraft, you will need to get several ingredients. The first thing we need is cobblestone. If you have been playing for a long time, then, most likely, your reserves are full of this element, but if it is not there, then we go in search.

Cobblestone is obtained with any pickaxe by breaking a stone or the cobblestone itself. You can meet him in treasuries and in the ruins of fortresses. In addition, it is included in all buildings in the villages, so you can briefly vandalize and destroy a couple of houses.

If you have already gone deep enough underground and are too lazy to get to the surface, you can try to find lava and water. When flowing water comes into contact with lava, this material is formed.

Second phase

The next ingredient that needs to be obtained before making a cooking stand in Minecraft is a fire rod. This is where problems begin even for experienced players. Stock up on patience, building materials, torches, food and camping equipment. The adventure begins.

First of all, you need to find a hellish fortress. Only there can we find the mobs we need - ifrits. With a certain chance, when a player kills a mob, it may drop the rod we are interested in. But don't rush to leave here. In these locations you can find sand of souls and treasure chests containing golden weapons, growth seeds and saddles for horses of excellent quality. Well, now we can finally find out how to make a cooking stand in Minecraft.

We create

Having collected all the necessary materials, we can begin creating potions in Minecraft. How to craft a brewing stand? We will need three cobblestone blocks and 1 fire rod. We go to the workbench and arrange them as follows: we place our cobblestones in the bottom row of cells. In the central one we place the element obtained from the fire efreet.

The result of crafting will be the brewing stand we are looking for, which is necessary for creating potions. By the way, it is worth noting that during your trip to the infernal fortress for the first time you need to obtain only two fire rods. Ifrits are a very dangerous enemy, and to win you will need a potion of fire resistance or a golden apple. After creation, you will need to place your unit on the Minecraft map. Read below on how to use the cooking stand.

Usage

You can place this device either on the floor or above a workbench, stove, or any other object with an interface. To do this, you need to right-click on the wall above the desired item.

Now let's look at the interface of the cooking stand itself. It consists of four cells and two indicators for the progress of the cooking process. In order to create a potion or add an ingredient to an existing one, you need to place the original potions or flasks with water in the lower three cells. You need to put the ingredient in the top cell. If it fits at least one of the flasks, the cooking process will begin. It's worth noting that you can save ingredients by creating three potions at a time. The fact is that only one unit of material is consumed per processing stage. That is, no matter how many flasks are at the bottom, you only spend one component, and the potion will be brewed in three at once.

That's probably all you need to know about creating and using a cooking rack in Minecraft. Experiment and create your own potions. Good luck in mastering the cubic world!

Make cooking utensils. You will need several items to create the potion, as well as a source of water. The necessary items must be created using a workbench.

Brewing Stand. It is necessary for brewing a potion. You can craft it by placing three cobblestone blocks in the bottom row of workbench squares and one Blaze Rod in its center square.
Cauldron. A cauldron isn't actually required to brew the potion, but you can keep water in it. The cauldron holds a bucket of water, enough to fill three bottles. A cauldron can be made by placing seven iron ingots in the outer squares of the workbench, leaving the top center and middle squares empty.
Glass bottles. You will store your potions in them. Bottles can be taken from witches or fished from water, but you can also make them yourself by placing three glass blocks in the workbench cells: one block in the bottom center cell, a second in the left middle cell, and a third block in the right middle cell. You will make three bottles at one time.

Collect Nether Wart. Hellish Wart is the main ingredient for almost all potions in Minecraft. The only potion that doesn't use it is the Potion of Weakness.

You will collect Hellish Growth in the Nether. Look for it in abandoned fortresses, especially near the stairs.
You can grow Hellish Growth yourself by planting it in Soul Sand. Thus, you will not spend a lot of time collecting it, especially if you need to make a lot of potions.

Gather additional ingredients. The main ingredient will not be enough. The effect of each potion will depend on the additional ingredient.

Spider Eye. You can take spider eyes from spiders or witches, and also find them in spider caves. They are used to prepare poisonous potions.
Blistering Melon. You can craft a shiny melon using a crafting table by placing eight gold bars around the melon. It is needed to make a healing potion.
Golden Carrot. It can also be made in a workbench by placing eight gold bars around one carrot. Use this ingredient to make a night vision potion.
Blaze Powder. You can make it from a Fire Rod and it is used to brew a potion of strength.
Fermented Spider Eye. It is made from spider eyes, mushrooms, and sugar. Used to make a Potion of Weakness.
Spiny Bubble Fish (Pufferfish). You will need to catch it and use it to brew a potion that will give you the ability to breathe underwater.
Magma Cream. You will need to take the magma from the Lava Mobs. Then make an ointment by combining it with Glitter Powder and a clump of slime in a workbench. Used to make a fireproof potion.
Sugar. Sugar can be made from sugar cane. It is used to make potions that increase speed.
Ghast Tear. You will receive tears from ghast mobs. Getting a tear is not so easy, since ghasts usually fly over lava. The ingredient is used for a potion that will restore health levels.
Rabbit's Foot. Rabbits will provide you with paws. Use them to make a potion that will increase your jumping power. But you can only use it in the game Minecraft 1.8.

Add more ingredients. You can improve your potion by adding some additional ingredient to it. It will generally increase the duration of your potion's effect. Or the potion will be easier to throw at enemies.

Red Stone. To get a Red Stone, you need to mine Redstone Ore. This ingredient increases the duration of the potion.
Glowstone Dust. It can be obtained by breaking a block of Glowstone. From one block of stone you can get up to four blocks of dust. It enhances the effect of the potion, but also shortens its duration.
Gunpowder. It can be taken from Creepers, Ghasts, or witches. With it you will be able to throw your potion.
Pickled spider eye. You can add this ingredient again to change your potion. But keep in mind that the eye can also ruin it.
