Flame Potions
by Tenty
Flame Potions adds a set of custom potions, tipped arrows and splash variants built around the Burning effect, which sets targets on fire when they are struck or drink.
What it does
Flame Potions is a Fabric mod by Tenty. Its potions light players and mobs on fire and give them a Flame effect. The set includes regular drinkable potions, splash potions, lingering potions and tipped Flame Arrows, which the mod names as Burning arrows. Splash variants can set the surrounding area alight or leave it unburnt, and a version uses Dragon's Breath with fire in place of magic.
The mod adds a few new advancements and a short list of settings. The settings change how the potions and arrows behave, and the author notes that adjusting a few of them changes play noticeably. Flame Potions runs on the client and the server, so both sides need it. Files are published for Fabric only, for twelve game versions 1.21.5 – 26.3, with 1.1.0+mc26.3 as the latest file. The mod is released under the MIT License and is not open source.

Use cases
Fire-focused survival
Players who want a fire-based combat option can brew the potion set and use the arrows against mobs.
Server-wide use
Because it runs on both sides, a server can add the potions and every player needs the mod installed to brew and use them.
Who it’s for: Players and server owners who want potions and arrows built around fire, with a few settings to tune the effect.
