MC-27031Unintentional Weakness effect nerf.
Before the attribute system was implemented, weakness 1 reduced damage by two.
Ever since the attribute system was implemented, weakness 1 reduces damage only by .5 which has virtually no effect.
Strength had a similar problem that was fixed, but weakness still has not been fixed.

Is this still a concern in the current Minecraft version 1.8.1 Prerelease 3 / Launcher version 1.5.3 or later? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases.
it is still an issue in 1.8.1's Pre release 3; i just double checked myself, although it doesn't require testing as Minecraft tracks and displays potion's potency/modifiers, and the tag is STILL -.5 damage
a zombie that does 3 damage (1.5 hearts) will do 2.5 damage (1-1.5 hearts) which visually looks the same at a glance, but alternates between 1 & 1.5 hearts of damage... i.e. 2 hits would show 2.5 hearts of damage(5hp) instead of 3 hearts (6hp).
currently, the weakness potion is not worth its ingredients, although almost any brewing mistake results in it.
Reopened, thanks
