'''Combat Test 8''' is a development version for [[Minecraft:Combat Test 8b]]. Although it is a development version for a future release, this combat experiment is a [[Minecraft:wikipedia:Fork (software development)|fork]] of [[Minecraft:Java Edition 1.16.2|1.16.2]].

This version was privately released for testing and thus was not initially made available to the general public.

== Changes ==
=== Items ===
'''[[Minecraft:Arrow]]s'''
* Instantaneous effects on tipped arrows are now scaled by {{frac|1|8}}, just like the duration of other effects.

'''[[Minecraft:Bow]]s'''
* Returned bow fatigue for holding the bow pulled, but it doesn't start until 3 seconds. Bow fatigue also cancels out "critical arrows".

'''[[Minecraft:Potion]]s'''
* [[Minecraft:Strength]] I/II now adds +20%/+40% (was +3/+6 damage).
* [[Minecraft:Instant Health]] potions now heal 3×2<sup>''level''</sup> (was 2×2<sup>''level''</sup>).
* Potions can now be drunk faster (20 ticks, was 32 ticks).

=== Gameplay ===
'''[[Minecraft:Eating]]'''
* Returned eating interruption for getting hit (by [[Minecraft:player]]s or [[Minecraft:mob]]s), also applies to drinking.
* Liquid food (stews, honey, milk) can now be consumed faster (20 ticks, was 32 or 40 ticks).

'''[[Minecraft:Enchantment]]s'''
* Weapon enchantments are now included in the base damage when calculating critical hits and potion effects.

'''Build mechanics'''
* It is now possible to build in front of players' feet when looking down over a ledge.

== Fixes ==
'''From the previous development versions'''
* Fixed shield protection arcs.
* Improved server-side attack range calculations.</onlyinclude>

== Trivia ==
* Combat Test 8 has the same [[Minecraft:protocol version]] as [[Minecraft:Combat Test 8b]] and [[Minecraft:Combat Test 8c]], which means these versions are cross-compatible with each other.
** This is a rare time where 3 development versions have had the same protocol version excluding joke versions.
