Luck is a trait in Minecraft that makes it more likely to obtain higher quality items when engaging in activities like fishing. Potions are bottled substances which give players and mobs a limited-time or instant status effect if drunk or within its splash radius when thrown (in the case of lingering and splash potions).Luck potion has the same basic effect as using an enchanted fishing rod that has been granted the luck of the sea trait, but the only way to get the actual luck status effect is to drink one of the potions.Players will need a brewing stand, blaze powder, water bottles, nether warts, and brewing ingredients to brew potions in Minecraft. Depending on the ingredients added, potions’ effects will vary from one to another. Players can add redstone dust or glowstone dust to increase the potion’s duration or strength.
