Jump Boost

Jump Boost

Sources	See § Causes
Particle	#FDFF84 (light yellow)
Type	Positive

Jump Boost is a status effect that increases the jumping height of the entity.

Mechanics

Jump Boost increases the jump strength of the entity, for the player it increases their jump strength from the base 0.42 blocks/tick (countered by gravity to give the maximum jump height). Each level increases the player's jump velocity by 0.1 blocks/tick. It also reduces one block height in fall damage calculation each level.

Arbitrary levels can be set via commands. In Java Edition, negative levels decrease jump height and increase fall damage (which also causes the player to start taking damage from short falls that would normally do no damage); extreme negative levels eliminate all jumping ability and cause damage even when stepping off a slab.
