Splash Potion of Weakness at a glance

Potions holds Splash Potion of Weakness: a potion out of brewing. Each Splash Potion of Weakness sits alone in a slot, which makes a spare one expensive to carry, and nine hotbar slots hold nine.

Splash Potion of Weakness comes off a brewing stand and works on drinking, with Redstone Dust stretching how long it lasts and Glowstone Dust raising what it does. It closes the Potions list, straight after Potion of Water Breathing, 11 entries in all.

Notes

Made by adding gunpowder to a Potion of Weakness. Combined with a golden apple to cure zombie villagers.
