I didn't really build that for the dragon egg, I just wanted 5 beacons for the effects and I wanted to place some block at the top of the pyramid, but it had to be transparent and.

Built in no-cheating* vanilla survival, only the surface is made from diamond, inside is iron.

*No using cheat commands(including /toggledownfall) cheat mods or duplication glitches, increasing ores with the new snapshots or x-ray texture packs. (using non-duplication glitches is allowed as long as it doesn't give huge advantance)

Make minecarts go faster, to make them better able to compete with rocket-elytras.

Does the hardness of a dropped item eg obsidian have any effect on the likelihood of it being destroyed?

More useful than non-splash instant damage potions.

(Hope the arrows don't get stuck on the player.)

I think it would bebetter if the arrow itself was invisible, both aiming and dodging would be harder.

I just hope that skeletons can rarely spawn with the ability to shoot these arrows.

Hats!

Terrible DRM!

Microtransactions.

Anticheat.

No community.

the nether fortress chests should only contain nether ones

Maybe have all of the only spawn in the related structure. (and they also could be pretty rare loot, at least in the more common structures.)

Nether mobs + wither = Nether fortress (wither statue very rare)

Zombies, skeletons, spiders = Dungeon of same type

Creepers, Ocelots = jungle temple

Cave spiders = Mineshafts

(elder)Guardians, squids... Maybe somehow in ocean monuments?

Passive mobs, villagers, Iron golems = village chests

Horses = desert temples?

Witches, Slimes = witch huts. (no chests, placed as a block)

Mooshrooms... Maybe some small structure in mushroom biomes.

Endermen, Enderdragon, Endermites, Silverfish = strongholds (but there are only 3 strongholds? maybe non-dragon statues also rarely spawn in other chests)

Wolves, Snow golems = either villages or a small new structure in snow biomes.

Bats = all dungeon chests, rare

By the way, Joonatan, you must be finnish. Are you?

yes.

When I first made my minecraft acoount I didn't realize that the account name would be the visible username.

Then I made the forum account with the same name.

And changing the username causes issues with old versions. (mods)

Support, more collectables is always fun. (unless there are way too many collectables...)

I don't think randomly being found in caves is the most interesting way to find them, but better than some I have seen.

Going to vote instant health, reckon it'd be good for the ender dragon. Otherwise, none of them are really needed. Strength could be nice to, and anything primarily made for combat. I'm not an expert, though, of course.

Enderdragon (at least on PC) hits you so rarely that if you survive the hit you usually will have good time to heal.

Against withers health potions are a bit better. (but regeneration is still better)

Against the dragon strenght II works, almost triples damage.

First added in Snapshot 15w41a, elytra allowed the player to glide. This was really cool. It made people come up with neat new minigames, it made people create elytra courses in their worlds, and it would even save people from fall damage in exchange for no chestplate. There was something people did, though, that made elytra basically wings, instead of gliders. They would shoot themselves with a Punch II Enchanted Bow and it would give them a huge boost. This was quite difficult to do, but people still did it.

Then came Snapshot 16w50a. I was hoping so badly that Mojang would fix the bow-boosting exploit, as it broke the whole transportation system. What did they do? They made it so that you could get an even bigger boost using fireworks. And this time without taking any damage.

This breaks transportation completely. People argue, "Oh, well, it's end game so it doesn't–" No! This is Minecraft. There might be a final boss, there might a dimension called, "The End," but there is by no means an end game. People still play a lot after they get elytra. In fact, on a lot of servers, people spend the first few days trying to get to this end game. Look at Hermitcraft, for example. So don't give me this end game nonsense.

What's the point of using any other form of transportation when elytra + starless firework rockets are the most efficient form of transportation? I would have loved it if they have made lava and fire give off steam that would boost you vertically with elytra, like in this Minigame. Why? Because if you wanted to transport a long distance and you hadn't already placed in a ton of lava pools, other forms of transportation would still have a use!

Well, those are my thoughts. I know, I need to calm down a bit. And yes, I know a lot of people are probably going to hate me because of this. For some reason, people seem to love becoming a god in survival mode. I don't get it, but whatever. Maybe I'm the odd one. I don't know. I would like to hear your thoughts.

Do phantoms need solid blocks to spawn on, or can they spawn mid-air?

Mid-air spawning would be pretty bad for floating-island-style bases...

My impression, both from the pre-vote bits and what little has come out since, is that they are intended to spawn 'at high altitide' and 'in the air' …

Given the stated purpose (to penalize those who don't use beds as MS/Mj thinks they ought), it would seem MobB would have to be able to spawn mid-air or one could avoid them simply by staying out of render distance from biomes such as Extreme Hills.

I agree, BTW, that the mid-air spawning is one of the serious flaws in the current MobB implementation…

[With the exception of the initial ender dragon, every other mob is avoidable through simple (if sometimes time consuming) building techniques:

light and/ or all floors being of non-spawnable blocks (or removing water for guardians) will provide safety

even endermen teleports can be defeated with water and or low (<2.9 block) ceilings.

No other mob spawns unblockably or coerces a certain in-game behavior (beyond adapting one's "mining" and "crafting").]

Yeah this does break the transportation system completely

A third desert temple, no bottom or treasure.

While I do understand your point, If I may say so the color Blue - much like purple - has been historically dificult to make in natural dyes and in pyrotechnics. Often highly poisonous compounds are relied on for lack of safer options such as the toxic Paris Green if fireworks (it burns blue but is a green powder, thus the name). For this reason, Blue and Purple became associated with Royalty and power as they were expensive and only the very rich could afford it.

That said, Minecraft is a game and a "Royal Color" could be considered silly. Nitrates, Oxides, Sulfates and certain metals are used for synthetic blues. Perhaps a crafting recipe using Bonemeal for the Nitrogen and Oxygen, Glowstone for Sulfer, and maybe Gold or Iron for lack of Copper or Cobalt.

I may be overthinking the specifics, but the point is a recipe for Blue #2 wouldn't be a game breaker. Half support for now until you can get a little more detail with perhaps a specfic flower or recipe.

This is not like the glitch where you can glitch through the roof of the Nether, cuz it's fixed.

Sometimes you do get stuck on a block when you pearl straight to a wall,

and that's when you suffocate without logic.

I think if pearls change to where it is locked into a grid so

every time you land a pearl on the floor it tps you to the center of the block

instead of exact position.

Of course, it's better if the pearl teleportation detects the nearest non- oblique block in 0.5

block radius so they won't get teleported to the center of the block due to lag spikes.

Quote from DuhDerp»

Provided you keep one block as the seeder, grass blocks are actually renewable. Dirt is not, but it can be extended by converting gravel to coarse dirt.

I don't think that counts.
That would make dirt renewable as well, since you can turn grass blocks into dirt.

There's a limit to how many grass blocks you can have at the same time even if the number of grass blocks can go up and down.

--

The way I see it dirt, coarse dirt, gravel, farmland, dirt paths, mycelium, podzol and grass all belong in the same unrewnewable "pot" the size of which can only go down never be increased.

I'm pretty sure I made the same argument in another thread, a long time ago.
