Elixirs
by Natsu91
Elixirs brings 26 new potion effects, six buffs and twenty debuffs, plus brewing recipes for effects that vanilla Minecraft lacks.
What it does
Elixirs adds six new buffs and twenty new debuffs, along with brewing recipes for several long-awaited vanilla effects. Potions that vanilla Minecraft leaves uncraftable can be brewed with it, and it rebalances some vanilla potions. Most of the effects can be configured.
The mod also includes a Strength variant named Wrath, which is a weakened form of the vanilla effect, plus a Resistance variant named Endurance. Some of the buffs and debuffs take inspiration from Terraria, the Calamity Mod and Lycanite's Mobs. The mod is also meant as a potion library, so other mods can build on its effects.
Elixirs is built for Forge and NeoForge. Files cover 1.18.2, 1.19.2, 1.19.4, 1.20.1, 1.21.1 and 26.1.2, and the latest builds are 1.2.0 for 1.20.1 on Forge and 1.2.0 for 26.1.2 on NeoForge. Client and server both need the mod, and it is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source. The source code and issue tracker are publicly linked.

Who it’s for: Players who want more potion effects and brewing recipes in their survival or combat play, and server owners who want a shared set of effects with configurable balance.
