Mining Fatigue is an Minecraft:effect that reduces Minecraft:mining efficiency and Minecraft:attack speed, opposite to Minecraft:Haste.

Effect

Attack speed

The effect decreases Minecraft:attack speed by 10% per level. For the in-game default level III, attack speed decreases by 30%.

Mining speed

The Minecraft:mining speed is reduced to 0.3^{min(level, 4)} times the normal mining speed. For the in-game default level III, mining speed decreases by 97.3%.

Mining duration	3.3×	11.1×	37×	123×	123×	123×	123×	123×	123×	123×

While afflicted, a player can still Minecraft:craft and ride entities as usual, but cannot remove most vehicles due to how slowly the vehicle can be broken.

The affliction is cured by drinking Minecraft:milk, although milk does not prevent a subsequent affliction by an elder guardian, which can happen within a few secondsTemplate:Only or immediately.Template:Only Minecraft:Axolotls can also remove this effect, if the player helps an axolotl kill a mob while an axolotl was battling that mob.

Causes

File:Elder guardian screen effect.png

Mining Fatigue being inflicted by an elder guardian

The only natural cause of Mining Fatigue is from affliction by an Minecraft:elder guardian, when player is close to it and the only natural effect level is III. Other levels can be achieved via Minecraft:commands.

Template:IN, once per minute, elder guardians in the vicinity search for any player within 50 blocks to afflict with Mining Fatigue III. A player cannot defend from this attack. Concealment behind blocks, underground, or by a Minecraft:potion of Invisibility offers no defense.

Template:IN, elder guardians within range afflict Mining Fatigue III immediately. Drinking Minecraft:milk to remove the effect results in re-infliction immediately after drinking the milk.

Cause	Potency	Length	Notes
Template:EntityLink	III	5:00	Only when the player is not already affected.

Immune mobs

Minecraft:Withers and Minecraft:ender dragons are immune to Mining Fatigue.
All Minecraft:mobs are unaffected by Mining Fatigue as they cannot mine blocks.

Notes

The effect does not affect Minecraft:block breaking in Minecraft:Creative mode, or blocks that are broken instantly by default.Template:Verify
Minecraft:Axolotls can remove a player's mining fatigue if the player assisted it killing a mob.

-The [[Minecraft:mining speed]] is reduced to 0.3^''level'' of the normal mining speed. However, due to a bug {{bug|MC-279819}}, increasing the effect level from II to III reduces the mining speed by a factor of 0.03, not 0.3. Thus, for the in-game default level III, the speed is reduced to 0.0027× of normal speed, taking 370 times longer than usual to break a block with its proper tool.{{until|JE 26.3}}
