With the addition of 1.17's lightning rod, now is the best time to introduce a new set of potions, fuelled by lighting in a bottle. By placing an empty bottle on the ground and letting it get struck by lighting, (if its close enough to a lightning rod that'll work too) the bottle will be filled by said lightning. If this is used in a brewing stand, it will change any potion into chain potions, similar to how gunpowder and dragons breath work. When thrown at a mob, the chain potion will affect the mob with whatever effect has been assigned to it, obviously. The main difference is it can only hit a single target at a time, but if the affected target comes too close to another target, the effect will be passed on, so both targets share the same effect and timer. This can work great in groups, being able to poison or weaken entire hordes of zombies with ease. Even if that mob isn't in a big group, the effect can still linger and the mob can still pass it onto another mob, which could help by harming newly spawned mobs overtime, rather than only affecting the mobs that were already around.
