5 Best Potions To Bring To Minecraft 1.21 Trial Chambers

Trial chambers are the epic battle arena structure, where you fight with various mobs and win amazing prizes. One thing that can make this experience easier and more enjoyable is Minecraft potions. And with the Minecraft 1.21 Tricky Trials update out and healthy, you need them all the more. Want to know what to bring? Here are the best potions you should use in Minecraft 1.21 Trail Chambers.

1. Strength Potion

• Effect: Increases melee damage by 3 (level 1) or 6 (level 2)
• Ingredients: Brewing stand, awkward potions and blaze powder
• Usage: Direct consumption

You know what they say, the best defense is a good offense. So, we’re starting off this list with a strength potion, which increases your melee attack damage by 3 points (1.5 hearts) on the Java edition. This is calculated a little bit differently on the Bedrock edition. The Strength potion is great to bring to trial chambers, as the Minecraft Breeze can only be defeated using melee weapons.

This potion requires blaze powder as the special ingredient, besides it being used as the brewing stand fuel. Furthermore, once you brew your strength potions, add some glowstone dust to the brewing stand to intensify their ability and make them much more powerful. This potion will add 6 attack points of damage or three full hearts. So be sure to bring this potion to Minecraft 1.21 trial chambers.

2. Healing Potion

• Effect: Instantly restores 4 points of health (level 1) or 8 points of health (level 2)
• Ingredients: Brewing stand, awkward potions, blaze powder and glistering melon slice
• Usage: Direct consumption

The best defensive potion you can bring to 1.21 trial chambers is the healing potion. After you drink it, the instant health potion will restore four health points or two hearts. That means if you’re in a tricky situation, this potion can very well save your life. To make it, you’ll need an awkward potion, blaze powder, and the glistering melon slice as the special ingredient.

In addition, similarly to the strength potion, you can add glowstone dust to turn this potion into a potion of healing 2, which will replenish eight points of health or four whole hearts.

3. Swiftness Potion

• Effect: Increases movement speed by 20% (level 1) or 40% (level 2)
• Ingredients: Brewing stand, awkward potions, blaze powder and sugar
• Usage: Direct consumption

In addition to strength, you should also be quick, in order to dodge attacks and be more agile. That’s where the swiftness potion comes into play. It increases theplayer’s movement speed by 20%, which is super useful, especially during a battle with many mobs.

You’ll need awkward potions, blaze powder, and some sugar to make this potion inside the brewing stand. Though, you can make it even better by making a potion of swiftness 2, which will increase your speed by 40%.

4. Weakness Splash Potion

• Effect: Reduces melee damage by 4 points
• Ingredients: Brewing stand, water bottles, blaze powder, and fermented spider eye
• Usage: Splash/throwable potion

Now, let’s take a look at the negative potions you should bring to Minecraft trial chambers. The first one is the weakness potion, which lowers melee attack damage by two hearts on the Java edition. Since this potion inflicts a negative effect, you’ll need to transform it into the splash potion, which you can throw at your enemies.

This will make them much weaker and will allow you to survive a lot more easily. Unlike all other potions in-game, the weakness potion doesn’t require awkward potions, but only water bottles. Besides it, it also requires blaze powder and a fermented spider eye. There is no potion of weakness 2, but you can extend it using redstone dust.

5. Harming Splash Potion

• Effect: Instantly reduces 6 health points (level 1) or 12 health points (level 2)
• Ingredients: Brewing stand, poison potions or healing potions, blaze powder, and fermented spider eye
• Usage: Splash/throwable potion

The final potion on this list is quite a unique one and in the right hands, it can be one of the most powerful weapons. The harming potion instantly deals six points of damage, which translates to three hearts. Similarly to the previous potion, it’s best to make it into a splash potion, so you can easily hurt other mobs. It will then also create an AOE, which will hurt multiple mobs at once.

Moreover, it’s possible to make the harming 2 potions using glowstone dust, which deals 12 points of damage or six full hearts. As you can see, that’s a lot of damage. If you wanted to, you could only use harming potions and defeat the entire trial chamber. However, do keep in mind that undead mobs will get healed from this potion, and a splash potion of healing will damage them. Also, it doesn’t stack, so your inventory might get filled quickly.

The way you make this potion is special as well, as you need to corrupt the healing potion using the fermented spider eye. Instead of the healing potion, you can also use the poison potion.

With that said, those are top best potions you should bring to trial chambers in Minecraft. Choosing a weapon and armor is as equally important and luckily we’ve already got a full dedicated guide on the best weapons and armor to bring to trial chambers. If you’re interested, do check it out.
