Oho

I screwed up, and almost died.

Let me tell you something, witches have far too much range. I was exploring a ravine intersecting with a few other ravines. Sensing a chance to get a load of ores, I decided to go in and risk it. Taking the left ravine, I was walking when all of a sudden the FOV turned weird and I was walking a lot slower than usual. A witch had popped out from a cave under the ravine wall and poisoned me. Not the biggest problem given I have some decent armor, but I still nearly died.

It all comes down to me brain farting. I quickly ran to the parallel wall and dug myself into it and blocked the passage. I knew the witch couldn't get me because she was stuck in the other cave, but what I forgot was that they throw far and the potions can penetrate through walls.

I thought I was safe and proceeded to eat some mutton to regenerate and counter the poison. Then she threw a potion harming at me.That brought me down to three or so hearts, and the poison kept it at half until I regenerated. I kept on digging through the wall and eventually made my way back to the house.
