Instant Death Potion

[Jacknoshima]

Is there a way to make an Instant Death Potion

and then possibly a way to have an armour enchantment that protects against it?

 

I don't want to just make my mob have a ridiculous attack power

I want it to have a regular attack power but cause instant death unless you've got that armour enchantment

 

I figure I'd either have to make it as a new potion or a new status effect, I'm just not sure on how exactly to go about doing that... I've looked through all the files on potions but I can't find out how they actually determine what they do and how they do it

For an instant death potion you can make a enhanced version of the Potion of Harming which does instant damage.

I've thought about doing that, but to counter it I'd need to have armour that's got a high shield rating, which would make it have an extreme advantage over other smaller mobs, they'd basically do no damage

 

I probably will have to do it that way until I can find a more permantant solution, but I would rather avoid just using ramped up damage and protection

 

I could do it by defining a new type of damage (like you've got fire and fire resist, blast and blast resist) but I wouldn't know how to do that either...

Armour doesn't protect against Harming potions.

and a potion is a damage source so you could have an enchantment to protect against potions.
