Similar to tipped arrows, you can now imbue effects onto melee weapons using lingering potions, which will apply the effect to the targeted entity.

Which build do you need?

This mod ships a separate file for every mod loader and every version of the game. Pick both, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game.

I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

Potion Imbuement is a simple datapack that enables applying potion effects to melee weapons using the #potion_imbuement:imbuable item tag. By default, it supports all swords, axes, and spears. To imbue, drop (Q) a weapon and a lingering potion next to each other. All potions are supported including custom and modded* ones.

The mechanic follows the same duration divisor and usage count as tipped arrows ensuring all is fully consistant. Once the imbuement uses run out, restart the process.

POTION EFFECT NAMES ONLY DISPLAY FOR 1.21.5 AND ABOVE (MINECRAFT LIMITATION)

*For Developers

Because of how Minecraft handles potion items, modded potions are only compatible if they use the custom_effects NBT. If they are non-custom potion items, they will need to be registered using another datapack.
