Potion Of Slow Falling

The Potion of Slow Falling in Minecraft is a consumable item that grants players the Slow Falling status effect. This effect allows you to fall slower and prevents you from taking fall damage. A regular Potion of Slow Falling lasts for 1 minute and 30 seconds, but you can extend the duration of the effect to 4 minutes by adding Redstone Dust.

This potion can be used to float safely down from high altitudes, gain better mobility in air, and survive aerial attacks. Players typically use the Potion of Slow Falling in The End when battling the Ender Dragon. This deadly boss mob has an attack that can send you flying high enough to kill you when you fall down. Drinking the potion before the fight can save you from dying this way.

To brew a regular Potion of Slow Falling in Minecraft, gather all the required ingredients and brewing tools, then follow the below recipe:

Ingredients required:

1 Water Bottle

1 Nether Wart

1 Phantom Membrane

Tools required for the brewing process:

Brewing Stand

Blaze Powder

Find a Crafting Table and place 3 Glass Blocks in the 3×3 grid. This will give you 3 Glass Bottles.

You only need one bottle to make the potion, but you can also place up to three bottles in the Brewing Stand using the same ingredients, so plan ahead!

To get a Water Bottle, equip a Glass Bottle and look for a water source to fill it up.

Now, you need Blaze Powder to fuel your Brewing Stand. You can craft this from Blaze Rods which are dropped by Blazes found in Nether fortresses.

Once you have your Blaze Rod, use the Crafting Table to create Blaze Powder. 1 Blaze Powder is enough to make 20 batches of potions, so one is more than enough.

Minecraft potions need a modifier so you can alter its properties. For this potion, we need a Nether Wart.

You can find Nether Warts growing on Soul Sand in the Nether, so while you’re looking for Blazes, be sure to grab some on the way!

Before making the Potion of Slow Falling, you need to brew a base potion called an Awkward Potion. To get one, place the Water Bottle, Blaze Powder, and Nether Wart in the Brewing Stand as shown above.

For the final step, you need a Phantom Membrane, which you can get by defeating Phantoms. These mobs spawn at night when you spend three or more Minecraft days without sleeping or dying.
