Minecraft:Flame

Template:Infobox enchantment Flame is an Minecraft:enchantment applied to Minecraft:bows that causes Minecraft:arrows to be set on fire.

Obtaining

Flame can be obtained from Minecraft:enchanting tables, drops from mobs that have spawned in a Minecraft:raid,Template:Only books obtained by Minecraft:fishing, Minecraft:monster room chests, librarian Minecraft:villagers, and non-village Minecraft:structure loot.

Usage

Arrows shot from a Flame bow are on fire when shot, set fire to Minecraft:mobs they hit, and deal Template:Hp fire damage over 5 seconds (first damage is ignored). Fire damage applies after initial damage, similar to Minecraft:Fire Aspect for melee weapons. Creatures killed by fire do not drop XP unless a player has dealt non-fire damage to it within the past 5 seconds.

Unlike Minecraft:flint and steel, flaming arrows affect only players, mobs, Minecraft:TNT, Minecraft:campfires, and Minecraft:candles. No other blocks catch fire. For example, a flaming arrow shot into a tree continues to burn without igniting the tree. Flaming arrows do not produce light.

Flaming arrows become normal arrows if fired through water or Minecraft:rain.

If Minecraft:commands or an Minecraft:NBT editor are used to increase the enchantment level beyond its normal limit of 1, the duration of the fire does not increase accordingly.

Specific cases

If Flame is applied to a Minecraft:crossbow by use of Minecraft:commands or an Minecraft:anvil in Creative, the enchantment causes the weapon to set targets on fire when using arrows as ammo, but not when using Minecraft:firework rockets as ammo. If Flame is applied to a trident by use of commands or an anvil in Creative, the enchantment cause the weapon's thrown projectile to ignite Minecraft:TNT, Minecraft:TNT minecarts, Minecraft:candles, and Minecraft:campfires, but not entities.

Trivia

• If the flaming arrow ignites a Minecraft:TNT, the TNT's explosion damage counts as an attack of the arrow's owner.
  • Thus a mob killed by such a TNT drops Minecraft:experience, and its Minecraft:drops are even affected by Minecraft:Looting if the owner is holding an item enchanted with it.
