5 annoying status effects in Minecraft – Sportskeeda

Status effects in Minecraft are modifiers that change specific game characteristics. For example, the “Speed” status effect allows players to move faster.

There are currently over 30 unique status effects in the Java Edition of the game, with more likely to be added in future updates.

While it’s true a lot of these status effects can prove highly useful, some, on the other hand, are quite the opposite and can be downright annoying.


Five most irritating Minecraft status effects

5) Bad Luck

Although this status effect cannot be obtained naturally, some Minecraft survival servers use plug-ins to inflict this effect onto players. Once given this dreaded effect, they will find that their chances of finding high-quality loot are severely diminished.


4) Hunger

Despite not having much practical effect like other harmful status effects, the nausea effect is easily one of the most annoying in the game.

Afflicted players will find their screens spinning in a way so obnoxious that it seems to transcend the fourth wall and make players feel sick in real life. Luckily, however, the only way to obtain this effect in vanilla Minecraft is by consuming a pufferfish.


2) Slowness

Every Minecrafter who’s explored an ocean monument has probably felt the absolute pain of mining fatigue at some point or another. This infuriating status effect is generously dished out by elder guardians and can make breaching the ocean monument much harder than it ever needed to be.

Also voted the clear-cut winner in many polls for the most irritating status effect in Minecraft, it’s safe to say that the community feels the same way.
