Ingredients You\u2019ll Need<\/h2>\n

To brew a slow falling potion, you\u2019ll need three key ingredients: a water bottle, nether wart, and phantom membrane. The phantom membrane is the crucial component that gives the potion its slow falling effect.<\/p>\n

Step-by-Step Brewing Process<\/h2>\n

Start by setting up your brewing stand and placing a water bottle in one of the bottom slots. Add nether wart to the top slot to create an awkward potion \u2013 this serves as your base for most potions in Minecraft.<\/p>\n

Once the awkward potion is ready, replace the nether wart with phantom membrane. The brewing process will take about 20 seconds, and you\u2019ll see bubbles indicating the potion is being created.<\/p>\n

Getting Phantom Membrane<\/h2>\n

Phantom membrane drops from phantoms, those flying hostile mobs that spawn when you haven\u2019t slept for three or more in-game days. Each phantom drops 0-1 membrane when killed, with looting enchantments increasing the drop rate. You can also find phantom membrane in some loot chests.<\/p>\n

Potion Effects and Duration<\/h2>\n

The basic slow falling potion lasts for 1 minute and 30 seconds. During this time, you\u2019ll fall much slower than normal and take no fall damage. This makes it perfect for safely descending from great heights or exploring tall structures.<\/p>\n

Enhancing Your Potion<\/h2>\n

Add redstone dust to extend the duration to 4 minutes. Unlike many other potions, slow falling can\u2019t be amplified with glowstone dust \u2013 there\u2019s only one level of the effect. You can also add gunpowder to create splash potions or dragon\u2019s breath for lingering versions.<\/p>\n

Master this brewing recipe and you\u2019ll have a valuable tool for safe exploration and building projects at extreme heights.<\/p>\n

\n

TL;DR<\/h2>\n

Brew slow falling potions using water bottle + nether wart + phantom membrane in a brewing stand. The potion lasts 90 seconds and prevents fall damage while making you descend slowly.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
