How do you make a good helpful potion in Minecraft?

Answer 1

A good potion for me was the potion of swiftness and potion of strength and to make those you need the following:

1. Brewing Stand (kill blazes and get blaze rods, you will also need to get cobblestone)

2. Sugar (collect sugar canes and turn them into sugar in the crafting table)

3. Blaze Powder (get blaze rods and turn them into powder using the crafting table)

4. Glass Bottles

5. Water Source

6. Nether Wart (found in nether fortress)

7. Redstone or Glow stone

Then once you have ALL of that then you first make a awkward potion by just putting nether wart in the top box and water bottle in the lower box then just wait one minute and then you will have a awkward potion so make two of those. Tip: it only takes on nether wart to make two awkward potions. Then take the sugar and put one awkward potion in the bottom and sugar in the top and you will get a potion of swiftness. Now do the same thing but replace the sugar with the blaze powder. Here comes a tricky part here's where the red stone and glow stone come in handy if you want to upgrade your potion. So anyway you want glow stone if you want to upgrade your potion in quality but gives you less time for potion, and red stone keeps the potion the same but adds more time to the potion. Tip: I would suggest doing both ways and have them in access when needy of them to both potions.
