Description

Wind Charge is crafted from a breeze rod, producing a small stack of throwable bursts. On impact, it creates a gust that knocks entities away, triggers certain redstone-like interactions, and can propel the player who threw it. The self-knockback makes it useful for jumps, gaps, quick escapes, and movement tricks that feel different from ender pearls or rockets.

The item comes from Trial Chambers progression because breeze rods drop from breezes. Combat players use charges to disrupt mobs, push opponents, or create space while repositioning. Builders and mapmakers use the burst for parkour challenges, launch pads, and puzzle timing. Since it is consumable, reliable supply depends on returning to chamber content.
