Minecraft 1.21-rc1

The first 1.21 release candidate is out. See the changelog.

Enchantments

Fire Protection now gives 15% burn time reduction per level and Blast Protection now gives 15% explosion knockback resistance per level, the same as in 1.20.6. These effects stack if used on multiple armor pieces.

If a player has 7 levels total of Fire Protection, they are extinguished immediately when catching fire. If a player has 7 levels total of Blast Protection, they do not take knockback from explosions.

These changes bring Fire Protection into parity with Bedrock Edition.
