 Description   

While under the effect of a night vision potion, enemies no longer flash red upon taking damage.

UPDATE: This only occurs if the mob is in a location that would normally be dark (such as an unlit cave) if you didn't have night vision. It works correctly in well lit areas.

Yes it does happen in 1.7.2. I posted my own bug report on this.

Comment by Manuel Gwosdz [ 27/Oct/13 ]

Another Bug confirmed in 1.7.2

Can confirm what David said.
In a complete dark cave the mob flashes dark grey. When I place a single torch, it flashes dark red.

I'm not sure if this is what you mean, but I tested it and they seem to flash grey instead of red. This may be due to the blue tinting of the potion on top of the red.

Nope I still cannot reproduce.

Comment by Matt [ 07/Dec/12 ]

Upon further experimentation, I have determined that this only occurs in low-light areas (areas that would normally be completely dark if you didn't have night vision). It works fine in well-lit areas, which is probably why you couldn't produce it.

I have updated the description with this information.

Unable to reproduce.
