I was thinking, you should be able to make obsidian arrows with obsidian! Its too hard to use for building, and defense against creepers can be mostly achieved with cobble or end stone.
I was thinking that you could be able to make ~8 obsidian arrows per block. Arrows would be made by putting a diamond pick and obsidian in a crafting grid to get 2 obsidian arrowheads. Obviously, the pick would not be consumed, but maybe lose one durability.
Obsidian arrows should be made the same way as arrows, except an obsidian block provides 8 arrows. Maybe a 1+ damage boost too :3

Awesome idea. Perfectly realistic, and who really ever needs more than 18 pieces of obsidian (portal and enchantment table)? This gives you incentive to harvest more.
The reason it's so hard to use for building (Protip: make a shell of your house, fill the shell with lava, dump water on lava, and viola, obsidian house) is because it is the only build material impervious to Creepers and griefers with short attention spans that can be obtained in the overworld.
Is flint not a specific type of stone? So you couldn't create a type of stone from obsidian. Arrowheads make more sense. Anyway I've always thought of new arrows types being a good idea.
If I helped in any way, don't click that little green +, instead tell me how much you liked the post. (Only those who are incapable of earning rep the hard way have to beg for it in their signatures).
Its easier to find obsidian than flint. No support
It IS easier to find, but remember that you need a diamond pick to get it. Also obsidian has been used for arrowheads IRL, I don't see how it could be so bad to have it in minecraft. Oh and obsidian is just volcanic glass so maybe minecraft should mimic real life a bit more?
