"Effect" redirects here. For the command, see commands § effect.

Status effects are various conditions, which can be either helpful or harmful, that affect an entity. They can be inflicted in various ways throughout the game, via the consumptions of potions and some food, while in the range of beacons and conduits[upcoming: Lua error in Module:Version_link at line 112: attempt to concatenate local 'text' (a nil value).], as well as when being attacked by/being close to certain mobs

The /effect command allows players to inflict effects upon themselves and hang their children also.

Behavior

Any entities inflicted by a status effect will be affected in various ways for an amount of time. During the effect, swirly particles emanate from the position of the inflicted entity. Players can open their inventory to see any current status effects afflicted upon them, as well as its strength and duration. The level of the effect determines its power. The higher the level, the stronger the effect is.

Internally, and in the /effect command and potion Amplifier NBT tags, the game stores an "amplifier" value rather than the level. The amplifier is one less than the level, for example Strength II has an amplifier of 1.

Due to the way this amplifier is stored in NBT, amplifiers of 128 to 255 (levels 129 to 256) in NBT tags (e.g. on potions) are treated as if they were −128 to −1 (levels −127 to 0) respectively. The /effect command initially applies such amplifiers in their positive-valued sense but this is later converted to the negative-valued interpretation, leading to inconsistent results.

Any number of different status effects can be simultaneously active on a player, even in the case of opposing effects, such as Strength and Weakness. However, it is not possible to apply the same effect multiple times, even if the effects are of different levels (e.g. Strength and Strength II cannot both be active at the same time). In the event of applying an effect already active on the player, the new version of the effect overwrites the old effect, giving a new level and full duration, if the new effect is of equal or greater level.

Note that even with commands, effects cannot be made to last forever. If an effect is set to an excessively large amount of time, such as 182 hours [655200 seconds], it will display as "**:**", but will still continue ticking down and eventually expire.

All of these status effects can be removed by drinking milk. Singleplayer users with cheats enabled and operators in Multiplayer servers can use command /effect with the time of the effect set to 0 or /effect <playername> clear to achieve the same goal.

Particle
Color of status effect particle in RGB hexadecimal notation, with a common color name.
ID
Status effect identifying number, used in commands and third-party tools.
Name ID
Status effect identifying name, used in commands and third-party tools.

Absorption

Effect/infobox

Absorbs damage.

Effect
Adds 4♥♥(♥♥ on hardcore mode, almost no difference) × level "absorption health". Absorption health cannot be replenished by natural regeneration or other effects, and vanishes when the effect ends.
Negative levels do nothing initially, but give 4♥♥ × |−level| (that do not vanish) when the effect ends.
Notes
Absorption hearts of a mounted mob can be seen while riding it.

.

Bad Luck

Effect/infobox

Decreases chances of high-quality and more loot.

Effect
Subtracts 1 × level from attribute generic.luck, making loot table entries with a high quality score less likely, and entries with negative quality more likely. It also makes the chance of bonus_rolls occuring less likely. Currently, only fishing uses quality. The new weight of each entry is floor(base_weight + quality * generic.luck).
Negative levels increase luck.
This status effect is exclusive to the Java Edition.
See also:  § Luck

Blindness

Effect/infobox

Impairs vision.

Effect
Impairs vision as if a thick black fog were surrounding the player. Also prevents sprinting and critical hits.
Notes
The Sun and Moon can be seen as normal. Also, liquids do not fade into the fog perfectly. If combined with Night Vision, the screen will be covered by fog. The radius of the fog around the player is 4.5 blocks.
This status effect is exclusive to the Java and Bedrock editions.

Fire Resistance

Effect/infobox

Grants immunity to fire, lava, the direct impact of blaze fireballs and standing on magma blocks.

Effect
No further effects.
Notes
Most Nether mobs (excluding chickens and skeletons) are naturally resistant to fire and lava without requiring the Fire Resistance status effect. However, Nether mobs can still be damaged by the direct impact from a blaze fireball, while Fire Resistance grants immunity to that.

Glowing

Effect/infobox Outlines entities.

Effect
Causes entities to glow with an outline that can be seen through opaque blocks.
This status effect is exclusive to the Java Edition.
Glowing effect

The Glowing effect, added to all entities by command.

Haste

Effect/infobox

Increases mining and attack speed.

Effect
Increases mining speed by 20% × level and attack speed by 10% × level.
Negative levels cause blocks to be mined slower and the player's arm to move more slowly, and decrease attack speed.
Notes
At levels 3 or higher, the player's arm will not move while mining.
Alternative methods of increasing mining speed include: the efficiency enchantment.

Health Boost

Effect/infobox

Increases maximum health.

Effect
Increases maximum health by 4♥♥ × level. Added hearts will initially appear as damaged until healed.
Negative levels reduce base health, however the entity's actual health is not decreased to the new maximum until damaged or healed.
Notes
Actual health may be above the base value after the effect ends and will not be capped, unless the entity is healed. Extra hearts of a mounted mob can be seen while riding it.
This status effect is exclusive to the Java and Bedrock editions.

Hunger

Effect/infobox

Increases hunger.

Effect
Increases food exhaustion by 0.005 × level per game tick (removes 🍗 per 80/level seconds if target has no saturation).
Turns the hunger bar yellow-green (🍗).
Negative levels will decrease food exhaustion. This does not increase saturation or the hunger bar.
See also:  § Saturation

Instant Damage

Effect/infobox

Damages entities, heals undead.

Effect
Instantly inflicts damage of 3♥♥ × 2level.
Undead mobs (including the wither) are healed as if with Instant Health instead. Death is reported as "<player> was killed by magic". If the effect is forced to last longer than 1 tick, it will damage entities every tick. Levels 30–32 provide no damage. Amplifiers outside the range 0–31 (corresponding to levels 1–32) are used modulo 32.
See also:  § Poison and  § Wither

Instant Health

See also: Healing and Health

Effect/infobox

Heals entities, damages undead.

Effect
Instantly heals 2♥ × 2level.
Undead mobs (including the wither) are damaged as if with Instant Damage instead. If the effect is forced to last longer than one tick, it will heal entities every tick. Levels 30–32 provide no healing. Amplifiers outside the range 0–31 (corresponding to levels 1–32) are used modulo 32.

Invisibility

Effect/infobox

Invisible Mobs

The visible parts of a decorated llama, an enderman, a saddled pig, a shulker, a charged creeper and a spider

Grants invisibility.

Effect
Causes the entity to disappear.
Boss mobs will not disappear.
Certain features of entities do not disappear:
Feature Visibility
Armor, held items, stuck arrows, any particles emitted, a shulker's yellow head, the eyes of endermen, phantoms[upcoming: Lua error in Module:Version_link at line 112: attempt to concatenate local 'text' (a nil value).] and spiders, a llama's carpet decoration, a pig's saddle and the aura of a charged creeper. Visible
Horse saddles and horse armor. Invisible
Notes
Mobs will not attack/sense the player until the player is much closer than normal. A player with no armor will be detected at 7% of the usual detection distance. Any one piece of armor increases this to 17.5% of the usual distance, and each additional piece increases this by another 17.5 percentage points. After detecting the player, a mob will continue to follow as it does when the player is not invisible.
Additional methods of reducing detection by mobs include:
  • Sneaking reduces the detection range to 80% of usual, and stacks with Invisibility.
  • Wearing the corresponding mob head reduces the detection range of skeletons, zombies, and creepers to half of usual, and stacks with Invisibility.
Players in Spectator mode see invisible entities as translucent instead.

Jump Boost

Effect/infobox

Increases jump height and reduces fall damage.

Effect
Increases jump height. Reduces fall damage by 1♥ each level.
The player can normally jump up a distance of 1 14 blocks. With Jump Boost I, that increases to 1 1516 blocks, and with Jump Boost II, that increases to 2 12 blocks.
Negative levels decrease jump height and increase fall damage (which also causes the player to start taking damage from short falls that would normally do no damage); extreme negative levels will eliminate all jumping ability and will cause damage even when stepping off a slab.
Notes
When at max level, jumping will not be changed but a player will never take fall damage.
At level 16, the increased height exceeds the damage reduction, causing fall damage on landing.

Levitation

Effect/infobox

Floats entities.

Effect
Causes the affected entity to float upwards at a rate of 0.9×level blocks per second.
Does not affect swimming or flying. Prevents the use of elytra, but the effects do not show if the player is already gliding. Negative levels cause the entity to float downwards, overriding the usual falling due to gravity; level 0 (amplifier 255) makes falling, jumping and ascending stairs impossible. Fall damage is not affected.
Notes
Additional methods of moving upwards include: flying with elytra, and jumping on a slime block.

Luck

Effect/infobox

Increases chances of high-quality and more loot.

Effect
Adds 1 × level to attribute generic.luck, making loot table entries with a high quality score more likely, and entries with negative quality less likely. It also increases the chances of bonus_rolls occuring. Currently, only fishing uses quality. The new weight of each entry is floor(base_weight + quality * generic.luck).
Negative levels decrease luck.
Notes
Using a fishing rod enchanted with Luck of the Sea increases a player's generic.luck attribute but doesn't actually grant the Luck status effect.
This status effect is exclusive to the Java and Legacy Console Editions.
See also:  § Bad Luck

Mining Fatigue

Effect/infobox

Reduces mining and attack speed.

Effect
The effects on mining speed are shown in the table below:

3 0.27% 370 127
4+ 0.081% 1234 4681
Attack speed decreases by 10% × level.
Negative levels increase attack speed, but still act as level 4 with respect to mining.
Notes
The effect does not affect block breaking in Creative mode, or blocks that are broken instantly.
Other conditions which reduce mining speed include: sneaking; being underwater; riding a horse, pig, or minecart.
See also:  § Haste

Nausea

Effect/infobox

The player's hearts turn yellow-green (♥ × 10)(♥ × 10 on hardcore mode) .
Damage is suppressed while the player or mob is already at ♥ health, but can resume if healing occurs before the effect expires. Amplifiers outside the range 0–31 (corresponding to levels 1–32) are treated modulo 32 (as though reduced by 32 until they are within the range, or alternatively as the remainder from division by 32, i.e. 33 will be treated as 1.)

Trivia

  • After drinking a bucket of milk while under the Nausea effect, the screen will flash purple for a tick as if you were standing in a Nether Portal. This is because the game uses the same effect for Nausea as it does for the nether portal.
  • If you put Blindness and Night Vision together, the screen will turn black and only the sun and moon will be visible (except in rainstorms or thunderstorms).
  • The maximum health the player can achieve using Health Boost and Absorption is 2068 (1034 hearts).
  • If you get max health using the method above, and put regeneration level of 255, while healing to 1034 hearts, your view will jolt, even in Creative mode, as if you are taking damage.
  • If you have at least Resistance 5, then you are practically invincible. (Apart from the /kill command and the void)
    • If you have Regeneration 7 or higher, the void cannot kill you.
  • Endermen inflicted with Invisibility can still be seen due to the fact that the eyes still glow and a slight outline can be seen from a distance. Similarly, spider eyes will glow.
  • The Wither effect is the only negative effect that can negatively affect both living and undead mobs.
  • The Jump Boost status effect does not make slimes, magma cubes or guardians jump higher.
  • Speed allows slimes to jump farther. High levels of speed can take slimes out of view with just one jump.
  • The Levitation status effect will normally rise you into the air. However, if you go into water, you will just flow along with the water, while not floating.
  • When having multiple status effects, their timer's seconds will always decrement by 1 each simultaneously regardless when the player takes another potion. This is because they use the same "seconds counter" that "ticks" every 20 game ticks to save memory. For example, if the player takes one potion and another potion (different so that they don't reset the timer) 5.5 (or any non-integer amounts) seconds later, their timers will subtract 1 second from both of them simultaneously.
  • You can walk/run while having the Levitation effect, especially on level 254.
  • Although the Wither effect is given to the player by being hit by wither skeletons or the wither boss, the icon shows a normal skeleton head instead of a wither skeleton head.
  • Using /effect <player> minecraft:levitation (Time In Second) 255 will make you fly in Survival and not jump, when the effect is over in Survival when in midair, hitting the ground will cause you to shoot into the air, then the player will most likely die.
  • When a creeper has a status effect and explodes, it leaves a lingering potion cloud of the effect(s) that it had before it died.
