Potion of Enhanced Physical Power (Virtual)
This entry details the process and ingredients required to concoct a beverage that temporarily grants increased physical capabilities within a block-based virtual world. The duration and magnitude of the effect are also addressed.
Base Preparation: Awkward Potion
Before imbuing specific effects, a neutral base potion is required. This is achieved by combining the following:
- Water Bottle: A glass container filled with water, obtainable from a water source.
- Nether Wart: A fungus found exclusively in the Nether dimension.
- Brewing Stand: A device used for combining ingredients to create potions. Requires Blaze Powder to operate.
The Nether Wart is added to the water bottle within the brewing stand, resulting in the base, Awkward Potion.
Ingredient: Blaze Powder
The primary component for instilling the enhanced physical power effect. Blaze Powder is derived from Blaze Rods, which are obtained by defeating Blazes within the Nether.
Brewing Process: Transformation
The Blaze Powder is added to the Awkward Potion within the brewing stand. This initiates the transformation, imbuing the potion with the power-enhancing properties.
Resultant Effect: Increased Attack Damage
Consumption of the potion results in a temporary boost to melee attack damage. The strength of this boost, and its duration, depend on the specific version and any modifications applied.
Effect Duration and Amplification
The standard potion provides a strength boost for a specific time period. This duration can be extended by adding Redstone Dust during the brewing process. Furthermore, the intensity of the strength boost can be enhanced by adding Glowstone Dust. However, adding Glowstone Dust typically reduces the duration of the effect.
Potential Modifiers
Various additional ingredients can be used to alter the potion's properties further. For example, adding gunpowder will transform it into a splash variant, which can be thrown to affect multiple entities within a small area.
