Minecraft:Fatal Poison

Fatal Poison inflicts Minecraft:damage to entities over time, and can kill both undead and non-undead mobs, similar to Wither. The effect is actually called "Poison," but its ID distinguishes it from the other Minecraft:Poison effect, which cannot kill. In Survival mode, the effect applies only to parrots (when feeding them a cookie) and is not obtainable by players.

Effect

The amount of Minecraft:damage inflicted on the affected entity is shown in the table below:Template:Verify

Level	Ticks per Template:Hp	Template:Hp per second
1	25	0.4
2	12	0.8
3	6<ref group=note name=immunity>Due to Minecraft:damage immunity, the effective rate is 12 ticks (Template:Hp × 0.8 per second) at levels 3 and 4 and 10 ticks (Template:Hp × 1 per second) at level 5.</ref>	1.66<ref group=note name=immunity/>
4	3<ref group=note name=immunity/>	3.33<ref group=note name=immunity/>
5+	1<ref group=note name=immunity/>	10<ref group=note name=immunity/>

The player's hearts turn yellow-green (Template:Hp). Amplifiers outside the range 0–31 (corresponding to levels 1–32) are treated Template:W 32 (as though reduced by 32 until they are within the range, or as the remainder from division by 32, i.e. 33 is treated as 1.)
