Ender dragon breath attacks and ball attacks currently have no particles. The Ender dragon itself does not knock you back either

Pretty annoying to die to his lingering breath when you can't see it.
Especially frustrating since there is also a bug with the dragon that causes his fireball to crash the game, he kills you while you are crashed, another bug causes you to respawn 1500 blocks away from your bed. Then on your way back to the end you go through a series of bugged nether portals that keep taking you to the wrong location where you suffocate in a wall and respawn 1500 blocks away again. Finally, after hours of effort you make it back to the end only to step in another pile of invisible dragons breath that kills you...
The enderdragon is an easy boss. Until they buffed him with game crashing fireballs and invisible dragons breath.
Edit: Also experience this on PC

I agree it was difficult at best for me and two others to fight the dragon nov 23 2019 the dragons breath show for a min or two then you cant see it. I had trouble even getting my inventory when I return its the only reason I died we had every situation planned for proc 4 d armor and sharp 5 swords it was a cake walk but the breath not show made all the work worthless and when I respawned the 4th time I couldent see the dragons health bar. and in general the game no matter where I am or what I do or did will just crash out of no where. like for example I take flight with my elytra and get a little height then crash lucky to have survived when I log back. or I go to save and quit and bam crash there seems to be no one cause for it.

This affects 1.14 - It appears that the client sided particle limit is causing the area effect cloud particles to not render, thus the clouds attack you. Since the damage is applied so quickly, it is almost an invisible instant death.

Affects 1.16.0.53 on Windows 10 and Android devices.
How to Reproduce: Let the dragon shoot some fireballs, and let them hit the ground in order to create dragons breath. Then die, and when going back to the end you will notice the dragons breath does damage, but is invisible. Happens more often in multiplayer.

Affects 1.16.0.55.

I'm also receiving this invisible dragon's breath issue on the 1.14 versions (.2, .3) on Nintendo Switch.

Listed as fixed in 1.16.0.57 patch notes.
Ender Dragon’s fireball lingering particles are no longer invisible

I dont see anything about it no longer being an instant kill thats my bigger concern

That issue is being tracked at MCPE-40344, and it was fixed in 1.15.0.55.

This issue is once again happening in 1.16.0.59, i just fight the Wnder Dragon and there's invisible Dragon's Breathe in the End evwn if she hasn't attacked you yet
This bug really needs to be fixed. I was very frustrated because I accidentally went into those invisible fireball "mines" and died twice
