**Buff** is an [effect](https://minecraft.wiki/w/Effect) that slightly increases melee damage.

## Effect

Much like [Strength](https://minecraft.wiki/w/Strength), the effect increases melee damage but only by 1 damage (0.5 Hearts) per level.

## Causes

Most [focuses](../../items/magic-focus) that summon [servants](../../mobs/servants) and are enchanted with Potency will cause newly summoned servants to constantly have this effect, with the level depending on the Potency enchantment level.
