Splash Potion

Splash potions in Minecraft are a special type of potion designed to be thrown, rather than consumed like regular potions. They create a small area of effect upon impact. To create a splash potion, players must first brew a regular potion with the desired effect, then add gunpowder. Once thrown, splash potions break and apply status effects to nearby entities. These effects can be positive, like healing or invisibility, or negative, such as harming or poison. Splash potions have a throw range of about 8 blocks and the effect intensity diminishes with distance from the impact center. Besides status effect potions, there are also splash water bottles, which have no status effect but can extinguish fire and turn dirt into mud. In Bedrock Edition, splash potions can be used to fill cauldrons. Moreover, there are unused splash potion textures in the game, such as absorption and blindness. Overall, splash potions are a versatile tool in Minecraft, used for both supporting the player and attacking enemies.
