Eternal Potions

_Inspired by the Second Wind mod by Lordepos._

Eternal Potions introduces a collection of reusable potions that grant vanilla buffs to enhance exploration, combat, and survival, while fitting seamlessly into vanilla gameplay and modpacks. These potions aren’t meant to make you invincible, but they’ll give you the edge when you need it most.

Each potion draws its name and theme from Greek mythology.

FAQ

How do I craft the potions?  

Complete the matching advancement to unlock each recipe. The potions are crafted using a vanilla crafting table.

Are the potions strong?  

They give meaningful boosts like Speed II, Strength II, or Haste II — but for short durations and with a reasonable cooldown to keep things a little balanced. (Balancing WIP)

Can I spam or stack them?  

No — each potion has its cooldown, and using more copies doesn’t bypass it.

Do I lose the potion when I use it?  

Nope — you keep the potion forever. Just wait for the cooldown before using it again.
