Minecraft:Fire Protection

Template:For Template:Infobox enchantment Fire Protection is an Minecraft:enchantment applied to Minecraft:armor that reduces Minecraft:damage received from Minecraft:fire. It also reduces Minecraft:burning time.

Obtaining

Fire Protection can be obtained from Minecraft:enchanting tables, Minecraft:librarians, books from Minecraft:fishing, Minecraft:vaults from Minecraft:trial chambers, and drops from mobs spawned in Minecraft:raids.Template:Only

Fire Protection books may also spawn in the chests of the following structures:

Usage

Fire Protection reduces all sources of fire damage the user takes, including but not limited to: Minecraft:fire, Minecraft:lava, Minecraft:magma blocks, lit Minecraft:campfires, and from Minecraft:mobs that deal fire damage (Minecraft:blaze's projectile, flaming Minecraft:arrows, burning Minecraft:zombies). This enchantment is capable of reducing any fire damage that would normally be ignored by Minecraft:armor.

Damage caused by close contact from Minecraft:blazes and Minecraft:magma cubes is considered melee damage and cannot be reduced by Fire Protection. Fire Protection doesn't reduce damage from Minecraft:ghast fireballs as contact is considered Minecraft:projectile damage and the resulting blast is considered explosive damage. However, it does mitigate effects from leftover blocks of fire from the blast.

Fire damage is defined as any Minecraft:damage type in the minecraft/tags/damage_type/is_fire Minecraft:tag. Custom damage types defined by Minecraft:data packs can be added to this tag to allow such damage dealt through the Template:Cmd command to be reduced by Fire Protection.

Damage reduction from Minecraft:Protection, Fire Protection, Minecraft:Feather Falling, Minecraft:Blast Protection, and Minecraft:Projectile Protection stacks up to an upper limit cap of 80% (see armor enchantments). Any further damage that would be reduced is instead ignored. This cap can be reached with a total of 10 combined levels of Fire Protection, or by combining 12 levels of Protection with 4 levels of Fire Protection.

The formula for fire damage reduction is (8 × level)%, up to a maximum 32% reduction on a single item with Fire Protection IV. The reduction stacks with multiple pieces of armor enchanted with Fire Protection.

Fire Protection has the side effect of reducing burn time when set on fire by (15 × level)%, up to a maximum 60% reduction on a single item with Fire Protection IV. This effect can stack on multiple armor pieces. This means that players wearing a total Fire Protection level of at least 7 have a 100% burn time reduction, effectively making them fireproof.

Incompatibilities

Minecraft:Protection, Fire Protection, Minecraft:Blast Protection, and Minecraft:Projectile Protection are mutually exclusive on a specific piece of armor. Attempting to combine these enchantments with an Minecraft:anvil deletes the enchantment in the upgrade slot and replace it with the enchantment in the sacrifice slot. However, if Minecraft:commands are used to force two or more of these enchantments on the same item, the effects stack. But when the total EPF provided by the enchantments surpass 20, the rest of the enchantments will no longer directly reduce damage.
