Learn to create the Splash Potion of Weakness in Minecraft! Follow our easy guide for tips on ingredients and crafting.
Potions have a diverse range of effects in Minecraft. Some can make you stronger, while others can heal you. A splash potion of weakness does exactly what the name suggests — it weakens the enemy. As a new player, you might be thinking that such a potion of weakness can’t be too useful. If you only think of its primary effect, then you would be right to assume so. However, the splash potion of weakness provides an additional advantage. Zombies that are hit with it can turn back into human villagers, and these freshly transformed villagers can benefit you significantly.
But, before delving deeper into the effects of a potion of weakness, let’s understand how you can make one.

How To Turn Zombies Back Into Villagers Using the Splash Potion of Weakness
To turn a zombie villager back into its human form, you need to throw a splash potion of weakness at it. When it hits, particles will become visible. At this point, you have to use a golden apple on the villager. Keep in mind that trying this tactic in sunlight will not work as zombies will perish when exposed to the sun’s rays. So, you need to lure it into some indoor space.
