The 3rd pre-release for Minecraft 1.21 has been released, packed with bugfixes and some intentional changes to the Wind Burst Enchantment. Be cautious with the new enchantment levels as higher levels can lead to a painful fall when landing. Read the full patch notes below.
Minecraft Update 1.21 Pre-Release 3 Patch Notes:
The third pre-release for 1.21 is now available and it comes with even more bugfixes!
Additionally, we introduced some intentional but undocumented changes to the Wind Burst Enchantment in Pre-Release 1 last week. To remedy this, we're including those changes in this changelog instead.
Happy mining!
CHANGES
WIND BURST
- Following changes were introduced in Pre-Release 1; The Wind Burst enchantment now bounces the player 7 blocks up per enchantment level
- With great power comes great responsibility - and risk! At level 3, the enchantment will bounce the player 21 blocks up which doing some quick maths will hurt quite a bit when hitting the ground again
- In other words, make sure you have a target locked in (or other means of mitigating the fall damage) before making contact with the ground again
TECHNICAL CHANGES
- Data Pack version is now 48
DATA PACK VERSION 48
- replace_disc entity effect type is renamed to replace_disk
