Raw Estus

This is the Matcha Flavoured version of Blaze Powder, renamed or changed from vanilla Minecraft.

Raw Estus

Type	Item
Replaces	Blaze Powder
Stackable	Yes (64)
Resource location	minecraft:blaze_powder
Defined in	drowned.json

Raw Estus is an item dropped by zombies, husks, drowned and zombie villagers. It replaces blaze powder. Raw Estus cannot be kept: as soon as it enters a player's inventory it heals them and turns into Estus Ash, the pack's main magic ingredient. It is the first form of estus.

Obtaining

Mob loot

Chance is the probability that a single chest, mob or catch yields at least one, assuming no Looting, Luck or Fortune.

Mob drops

Source	Stack size	Chance	Notes
Drowned	0–1	25.0%	player kill
Husk	0–1	31.2%	player kill
Zombie	0–1	25.0%	player kill
Zombie villager	0–1	45.5%	player kill

Decorated pots

Source	Stack size	Chance	Notes
Abbey / common	1	4.04%
Trial chambers / corridor	1	13.3%

When the Raw Estus pool is chosen, the drop is 0 or 1 Raw Estus with equal odds; the "Chance" column already includes this, giving 25% for zombies and drowned, about 31% for husks and about 45% for zombie villagers without Looting. Each level of Looting adds 0–1 Raw Estus when the pool is chosen. Only kills by a player count, and zombies and husks with the NoDrops tag drop nothing.

Crafting

The vanilla recipe that crafts blaze powder from a blaze rod is removed, so Stabilized Estus cannot be broken back down. Blazes do not drop Raw Estus in the pack.

Behavior

Whenever a player's inventory changes, the pack checks whether it holds Raw Estus. If it does, and the player is not in Creative mode, one Raw Estus is removed and replaced with one Estus Ash, and the player gets:

Difficulty	Effects
Peaceful, Easy	Regeneration V for 4 seconds and  Resistance I for 10 seconds
Normal, Hard	Regeneration V for 2 seconds and  Resistance I for 5 seconds

Orange dust particles appear around the player. Replacing the item changes the inventory again, so a stack of Raw Estus is converted one at a time until none is left; the effects are reapplied each time rather than stacking. The effects have no particles.

As a dropped item, Raw Estus gives off smoke particles.

Creative mode is excluded because the game refills items there, which would repeat the conversion forever.

Raw Estus does not work as fuel in a kettle: the pack empties the #minecraft:brewing_fuel tag.

Multiplayer

In 1.12.2 the functions were written with nearest-player selectors, which worked in single player but not reliably on a server:

• The Creative check only tests whether some player is not in Creative mode. While any other player is not in Creative mode, a Creative player's Raw Estus is converted as well, which is what the check is meant to prevent.
• Each time it runs, it converts Raw Estus for every player who holds some, not only the player whose inventory changed.
• The main inventory and the hotbar are checked separately, so a player with Raw Estus in both has two converted at once.

Since 1.12.3 this is fixed: only the player whose inventory changed is processed, one Raw Estus at a time, and never in Creative mode.

History

0.5-alpha	No longer processed in Creative mode, as a workaround for a world-corrupting bug. Processing optimized.
1.10	Blazes no longer drop Raw Estus. Zombie drop rate lowered from about 50% to about 33%, according to the release notes. Fire and smoke particles added. New texture.
1.12.1-alpha	Can no longer be used as brewing fuel.
1.12.3	Estus processing fixed for multiplayer: only the player whose inventory changed is processed, one Raw Estus at a time, and a Creative player is never processed. In 1.12.2 the functions used nearest-player selectors, so every player holding Raw Estus was processed, including Creative players while someone else was not in Creative mode.

Notes

• The 1.10 release notes give the zombie drop rate as about 33%. The loot table gives 25% (a 50% chance to choose the pool, then 0–1 items).
