Minecraft 1.21 update is less than two weeks away from its official release, and Mojang is now bringing some last-minute changes and bug fixes. As all the major features are more or less ready for the official release, developers have been hearing feedback from players, which might have led to an interesting change to the mace-exclusive Wind Burst enchantment in Minecraft 1.21 pre-release 3.

At the max level, Wind Burst enchant can launch players up to 21 blocks in the sky, which can lead to a deadly fall unless one can land a smash attack on another or is using the Feather Falling enchantment. Either way, players now have to be careful while a mace enchanted with Wind Burst. This change was added in pre-release 1 but was documented in Minecraft pre-release 3 patch notes.

Other than this, there have been quite a lot of bug fixes in the latest pre-release related to item frames, leash, and more. Without further delay, here are the patch notes for Minecraft 1.21 pre-release 3.

Minecraft 1.21 pre-release 3 patch notes

Changes

Wind Burst

Following changes were introduced in Pre-Release 1; The Wind Burst enchantment now bounces the player 7 blocks up per enchantment level.

  • With great power comes great responsibility – and risk! At level 3, the enchantment will bounce the player 21 blocks up which doing some quick maths will hurt quite a bit when hitting the ground again
  • In other words, make sure you have a target locked in (or other means of mitigating the fall damage) before making contact with the ground again

Technical changes

  • Data Pack version is now 48

Data Pack Version 48

  • replace_disc entity effect type is renamed to replace_disk
