Identify Status Effect Hearts (Poison, Wither, Freezing)

How Status Effects Change Your Hearts

Fresh Hearts updates the appearance of hearts when you're affected by negative status effects. Each effect changes your heart color and style:

  • Poison Effect: Hearts turn green and display a sickly appearance
  • Wither Effect: Hearts become dark black, indicating decay damage
  • Freezing Effect: Hearts turn blue and look sharp/crystalline

Get These Effects to See Them

Poison: Fight cave spiders or bees, or use /effect give @s poison

Wither: Encounter a Wither boss, or use /effect give @s wither

Freezing: Stand in powder snow without proper gear, or use /effect give @s slowness (freezing is visual in newer versions)

What They Look Like

With Fresh Hearts installed, these status-affected hearts are much more visually distinct than vanilla. The modern styling makes it immediately clear you're under a harmful effect. The colors are sharper and the textures match the pack's overall aesthetic, helping you quickly assess your condition during dangerous situations.
