📖 About 📖
Dave’s Potioneering is a mod that makes changes to how potions and alchemy work with the goal of making the brewing and use of potions much more enjoyable. Rather than simply adding more potions to the game, we make changes to the brewing system and inventory management to make the creation of potions more efficient and their application much more intuitive. This is an overall improvement on the current utilization of potions and brewing in Minecraft, and a great Vanilla+ base that compliments other potion-related mods you may be using.
Dave's Potioneering requires Geckolib.
