The Potion of Turtle Master is a Potion that has both negative and positive effects. The effects are Slowness and Resistance.

Slowness decreases your movement speed and FOV (field of view), while Resistance decreases the damage you take.

  • Resistance III decreases the damage you received by 60%.
  • Resistance IV decreases the damage you received by 80%.
  • Slowness IV reduces movement speed by 60%.
  • Slowness VI decreases movement speed by 90%.

Potion of Turtle Master is the only Potion in Minecraft that has two effects. And it is also the only Potion where the main ingredient is a Helmet. 

When you use this Potion, you will be like a Turtle, slow and rugged.

How to Make the Potions

Before making Potion of Strength, make sure you make Awkward Potions first by putting Nether Wart and Water Bottles 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.

The main ingredient for making Splash Potion is Gunpowder.

In Minecraft Java Edition, use Gunpowder and desired Potion (basic or +). And your Potion will be converted into Splash Potion, with all effects and durations remaining the same.

  • Splash Potion of Turtle Master +: 30 seconds for both Slowness IV and Resistance III.
  • Splash Potion of Turtle Master II: 15 seconds for both Slowness VI and Resistance IV.
