Fire resistance potions are not very complicated to brew and can give you an upper hand in the Nether, especially since water vanishes as soon as you place it down. So let’s take a look at how we can craft the potion and traverse the Nether with little less hesitance.
What do I Need to Craft Fire Potion in Minecraft?
You will need the following items with you before you can brew the Potion of Fire Resistance. Some are easily available, while you will need to make a visit to the Nether for some.
Blaze Powder: You will have to traverse the Nether to find the Nether Fortress and the Blaze Spawner within. You can then kill the Blaze to get Blaze Rods and change it to Blaze Powder using the Crafting GUI.
Brewing Stand: You can place the Blaze Rod in the middle of the Crafting Table and place Cobblestone blocks in the third row to craft a brewing stand. Furthermore, you can also explore and find a Village Church, Igloos, or the End Ship to find a Brewing Stand.Nether Wart: While Nether Warts are only found in the Nether Fortress, you can bring as much Nether Wart you can find them, along with Soul Sands, to make its farm in the Overworld. It is best not to forget the Soul Sand as it is the only block where the Nether Wart grows.Water Bottles: One important item you need to brew the potion is Water Bottles. But you will need to craft Glass Bottles first. You can gather some sand and smelt them in a furnace to get Glass.You can then further prepare them into Glass Bottles by using three Glass blocks and placing them in a ‘V’ shape in the Crafting GUI. Once you have the Glass Bottles, you can go to the nearest water source and right-click with the bottles in your hand to fill it with water.Magma Cream: While you are in the Nether, you can also find some Magma Cubes, sometimes known as Lava Slime, and kill them. These creatures drop Magma Cream when they die. But be careful when you slay these monsters. Magma Cubes, just like the Slimes in the Overworld, divide into smaller versions of them when you land the final blow. Additionally, if you already have some Blaze Rods lying around, you can go on a hunt for Slimes in the Swamp biome and kill them to obtain Slimeball. Then you can use the Blaze Rods to make some Blaze Powder, mix it with the Slime Ball in the Crafting Table and get Magma Cream.
