Minecraft has a variety of potions that can help players become stronger, faster, and even reflect fire damage. While many potions can be found as loot in treasure chests, crafting your own is much easier than relying on chance. However, this will require the preparation of several additional items.
While the fire resistance enchantment on equipment grants up to 32% elemental resistance, a fire resistance potion grants full protection. Including from fireballs, lava and just an open flame. To make a drink, as with other potions, you need a brewing rack. It can be crafted at a workbench or stolen from villagers.
Making a potion of fire resistance in Minecraft
To create a potion, you will need several ingredients, which are created additionally. It’s worth noting that each potion requires a fire powder to be used as fuel for the brewing rack and a bottle of water. Placing the “Infernal Growth” on the cooking rack produces a “Muddy Potion”, which is one of the necessary components.
The second component, “Lump of Magma”, is created from slime and fiery powder. Magma can also be obtained by killing a lava cube. You can now brew a Potion of Fire Resistance by mixing the Muddy Potion and the Bulb of Magma.
Variations
Potion of Fire Resistance can be crafted with Redstone. This option gives eight minutes of protection instead of three from the standard potion.
By brewing a gunpowder fire resistance potion, you can get a version for protecting companions or pets.
Mixing the drink with Dragon’s Breath creates a potion of prolonged fire resistance.
Other sources of fire protection in Minecraft
While Fire Resistance Potion is the easiest to craft, many players use other methods of defense as well. For example, rare items like Enchanted Golden Apple, Mysterious Stew, and Fire Resistance Arrows provide the same resistance as a potion. In addition, do not forget about enchantments that give the aforementioned 32% protection.
