Background

The Haste effect is a status effect that speeds up how fast you break blocks. This effect makes your arm swing faster which means that you not only mine and dig faster, but your attack speed is also increased.

There are levels of Haste such as Haste II, Haste III, Haste IV and so on. The higher the level of Haste, the faster you will mine and attack.
