'''Instant Damage''' is an instant [[Minecraft:status effect]] that decreases [[Minecraft:health]] for players and living [[Minecraft:mob]]s and heals the [[Minecraft:undead]].

== Effect ==
Instant Damage inflicts magic [[Minecraft:damage]] of {{hp|3}} × 2''level''. [[Minecraft:Undead]] mobs are healed as if with [[Minecraft:Instant Health]] instead. [[Minecraft:Death]] is reported as "<''player''> was killed by magic". When applied using a [[Minecraft:lingering potion]], damage is inflicted every second. As this is magic damage, it can be decreased only via [[Minecraft:Resistance]] and [[Minecraft:Protection]].

Instant Damage has its duration set in game ticks (instead of seconds) with the {{cmd|effect}} command.
