Description
Thirst and Quenched
- Thirst Bar: Depletes as you run, jump, mine, and fight.
- Quenched Buffer: Works like saturation. It drains first, and heals you once saturation runs out.
- Dehydration: Food stops healing below half thirst. Low thirst prevents sprinting, and empty thirst causes steady damage.
- Environment: Thirst drains a little even at rest. Hot biomes like deserts and the Nether deplete it faster. Fire Resistance and Fire Protection reduce heat drain.

Water Quality
| Grade | Common Sources | Effects |
|---|---|---|
| Dirty | Swamps, stagnant pools | Often causes Upset Stomach or Poisoning, worse on harder difficulties |
| Murky | Standard rivers, lakes, caves | Can cause Upset Stomach or Poisoning |
| Clean | Mountain rivers, rain, boiled water | Safe |
| Pure | Cold peaks, dripstone, distilled water | Safe, with the biggest reserve |
| Salty | Oceans and beaches | Cannot quench thirst; makes you Parched |
Purification
- Boiling: Boil water bottles, bowls, buckets, canteens and flasks in a furnace to make them Clean, which is safe to drink.
- Hanging Pots: Hang a Copper or Iron Hanging Pot over a lit campfire to boil water Clean on its own.
- Copper Distiller: A two-block still and the way to Pure water, from any water, sea water included. It burns furnace fuel and hoppers can keep it running.
- Rain and Dripstone: Cauldrons placed under open rain or pointed dripstone automatically fill with clean water.

Soups, salads and chocolate mousse restore thirst. Kitchen sinks still fill on their own, but their water is Murky and needs boiling, and they refuse sea water. |
