💡Pro-Tip!

While you can run the /effect command with a longer duration in the chat, it’s a hassle to revert the effect level. You’d have to drink milk or run /effect @s clear.
By using a /effect command with a short duration and repeating it with a Repeat command block, you can easily toggle the effect ON/OFF with a lever.

💡Pro-Tip!

For the invisibility effect, we added true at the end of the command: /effect @p invisibility 2 1 true. This optional argument true hides the particles. If you’re playing multiplayer and want to be completely invisible to other players, it’s a good idea to add true to hide the particles as well.
