Legacy Potion of Strength
by NaNfps
Legacy Potion of Strength restores the strength potion effect as it worked in older releases, adding extra damage per level.
What it does
Strength potions and the strength effect in Legacy Potion of Strength add three levels of damage and a base damage increase, bringing back the older behavior of the effect. The change applies to the potion itself rather than to a separate weapon, so any attack made while the effect is active is affected. Players on the client and server both need the mod, since the potion values are read on each side.
The mod is built for Fabric and is published for every release in its range, with 33 release versions in total. Sinytra Connector is named by the author as a way to load the mod alongside other mods on other loaders, and the author states that almost all mods that edit vanilla potion effects are compatible with it.
The mod falls under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only and is not open source. The author links an issue tracker for reporting problems. The mod was first published on 2025-05-18.
Key features
Restored strength effect
Strength potions regain the older effect, changing how much damage the potion grants.
Extra level damage
Each strength level adds three points of damage on top of the vanilla value.
Base damage increase
The effect also raises base damage, so the change applies even at low strength levels.

How it compares
Potions Please is server-side only and open source under CC0 1.0 Universal, with files for 1.21.5 – 1.21.6, so players join without installing anything. Night Eye is client-side only and open source under the MIT License, covering 1.20.6 – 1.21 and changing visuals rather than potion damage. Legacy Potion of Strength, by contrast, is client and server, is not open source and reaches a much wider range of versions.
