Potion of Regeneration Overview

Potion of Regeneration is a Potion that has a positive effect. The effect is Regeneration. It heals 1 Health (a half Heart) over time.

  • Regeneration (level 1) heals 1 Health (a half Heart) for every 2.5 seconds.
  • Regeneration II heals 1 Health (a half Heart) for every 1.5 seconds.

Just like Potion of Poison, Potion of Regeneration has two duration. The first duration is for how long the Regeneration effect will last. And the second one is for how frequently you got 1 Health (a half Heart).

For example, the basic Potion of Regeneration heals 1 Health (a half Heart) for every 2.5 seconds with a duration of 45 seconds. 45 divided by 2.5 is 18. So, the basic Potion of Regeneration could heal HP up to 18 (9 Hearts).

How to Make the Potion

Before making a Potion of Regeneration, make sure you make Awkward Potions first by putting Nether Wart and Water Bottle into the Brewing Stand.

Notes: 

  1. When Brewing any Potions, make sure you put three Potions (or Water Bottles, if you try to make Awkward Potions) for the Output. 
  2. There are three types of Potions you can make. The first one is the basic, the second one (with + at the end of its name) comes extended duration, and level II (with increased effect power and lower time). 
  3. In-game, the extended and upgraded Potion doesn’t come with + and II at the end of its name. Both are marks to lets you differentiate each Potion.
