Minecraft Name: Original_Jackson Suggestion: Include stone swords in the chests scattered around the survival games maps. Reason: Currently, without the use of kits, there are three sword types you can find. Wood, gold, and iron. The gap between damage done by iron and wood/gold (same damage) is huge. This would add a tier2 sword if you will, making wood/gold tier3 and iron tier1. Any Other Information: some closing points: Some might say this would make the spawn rate of swords too high in chests, the fix for that is adjust the current spawn rates or take gold swords out completely, they have very little use. Some will way iron swords are beatable with a wood sword and yes this is true, but unless you have much better armor and a golden apple, the player has to be bad for you to win. Link To This Plugin: I assume whichever one our current hunger games uses.
If kuke can and is willing to code this i am 100% for it. However, if this is something Andrew would need to pay say khobbits to do, i dont think it would be worth it.
This is exactly what I would say! I too see a huge difference in the damage done between wood/gold and iron swords. Yes as original_jackson said, there are some occasions where the user with a worse sword wins, but 9 times out of 10 the player with an iron sword wins the battle. Its not simply because of skill. Its the huge advantage that the iron sword has over the wood or gold sword. I see no possible downside other than the "too many swords" argument in this, so again, if Kuke could code this then it would be a huge addition to SG.
The plugin, I believe, is Survival Games created by Double_0_negative. Now if I remember correctly, to add stone swords, all you would need to do is change the config file and add the itemdb# for the stone sword. The abundance of each sword can be altered through the config file as well. So there wouldn't need to be any developing by KHobbits. I would like to see stone swords in the Survival Games.
I think stone swords are not in sg at the moment to encourage people to buy kits, may of which come with a stone enchanted sword. I would like to see this implemented as it would give non-kit users a slightly better advantage. As Cardinal3 said it only requires a change in the config from what I understand.
Why not replace golden swords with stone ones? Since wooden swords deal the same amount of damage as golden ones and since there is no enchanting enabled for our SG's, replacing golden swords would still keep the same amount of swords that spawn.
I like that idea. Also, if stone swords are added, then you won't know right away if someone has a kit. At the time being, if you see "so-and-so was killed by player using a stone sword", you won't know if it is a kit right away, adds more suspense. +1
I like this idea. I was also thinking about making a suggestion for cobwebs? Not sure if its of interest.
Alperts got the idea. When I get home I'll work on a more detailed explanation/suggestion. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Could you break the cobwebs? Because currently we can't. If this changes, then sure, cobwebs would be interesting to add in.
Didnt even think about that. It would be the same situation with leaves if this were to be added.... I think.
While cobwebs could add an interesting aspect to gameplay, the arenas seem to have a hard enough time resetting as is, without extra blocks that shouldn't be there. As for the stone swords, I love the idea.
