Minecraft is a sandbox video game in which users can create their own world using blocks - originally based around the idea of building structures to protect yourself from monsters, the game has advanced to include several other features and plots. There are a variety of weapons you can use to defend yourself. One such weapon is the Fermented Spider Eye, a potion ingredient used to brew potions with negative effects and the Potion of Invisibility.
Steps
Making a Crafting Table
The Crafting Table, also known as Workbench, is one of the most essential blocks in Minecraft. To create a crafting table, you need at least 4 Wood Planks.
-
1Get Wood Planks. They can be obtained by cutting a tree to get a Wood Block and then putting it in your crafting window, which can be found in your inventory.
-
2Use the Wood Planks. With your Wood Planks, use the crafting window and then place one Wood Plank on each empty box.Advertisement
-
3Click on the Crafting Table. Place it in your inventory to finish the crafting process.
- You can also use the Crafting Table to create other tools, weapons, and armors.
(This is totally optional as you can craft a fermented spider eye in your inventory)
Obtaining Necessary Items
-
1Get Brown Mushroom. Find mushrooms in dark caves and shady areas, so look in swamp biomes or in Nether for them. They're mostly found there due to its low light conditions.
- Brown Mushrooms have also been known to spawn in jungles and open caves.
-
2Get Sugar. To craft Sugar, open your Crafting Table and then place one Sugar Cane in the middle of the empty boxes.
- Sugar is a food item derived from Sugar Cane, and Sugar Canes are found in the newly generated world, mostly three blocks tall.
- Sugar Cane is found growing naturally, but somewhat rarely on dirt, grass, and sand directly adjacent to water.
- To have a constant supply of sugar for future alchemic or cooking uses, you can plant Sugar Canes on sand as long as it's next to a source of water. Harvest by removing only the top layer and leave the base layer intact to keep it growing.
- 1 Sugar Cane produces 1 Sugar.
-
3Kill Spiders. Spider Eye is a poisonous food and brewing item. Is it dropped by Spiders, Cave Spiders, and Witches.
- Spiders can be found in the forest, but the best source for the Spider Eye are from Cave Spiders since they can be found quickly if there's a spawner nearby.
Crafting the Fermented Spider Eye
-
1Use the Crafting Table. With the gathered ingredients stored in your inventory, open your Crafting Table to start crafting the fermented spider eye. Place the Sugar in the middle and then place the Brown Mushroom to the left side. Spider Eye should be placed below the Sugar.
- Once you're done, click on the Fermented Spider Eye, which can be found to the right side of the window, and then place it in your inventory to complete the process.
-
2Use the Fermented Spider Eye for brewing. Fermented Spider Eye is usually used for brewing unique kinds of potions. Use it for the following potions:
- Potion of Weakness can reduce melee damage to 50%.
- Potion of Harming damages three hearts.
- Potion of Slowness slows players and mobs by 15%.
- Potion of Invisibility makes players disappear, and mobs will act neutral toward the player if the player is not wearing armor.
- If you like, you can create servers to play with friends from different devices.[1]
- For example, you can use a Minecraft pocket edition server which is a Minecraft world on the mobile version.[2]
- You can also create large servers that allow many players to join and play minigames that put a spin on the regular Minecraft mechanics.[3]

QuestionHow do I make an invisible potion?
