hey flight potion that would be great but for 30 seconds with 2 ghast tears and a speed potion I'm going to make a mod about that
Almost all people here are saying it shouldn't last long or it shouldn't be in the game because it's OP, and then there's you that's suggesting to make it last longer...
"for good reason" yeah sure. I haven't seen one. Flying is nothing compared to blowing up a massive chunk of land with one block. and you think that flying is "extremely powerful" did you even look at my op.
"Yeah sure"..? Have you not seen the other threads about flying potions? Are you just saying that because this is your idea? Granted, this has more balance than most other flying potion threads, but it still seems like a waste of time to make this flying potion when there are enough alternative methods of quick travel which happen to be cheaper as well.
I honestly have no idea why you compared your idea to TNT, that's like comparing a fruit salad to a clay sculpture.
Like I said you are not moving very quickly.
My explanation for it would be physic powers/Magic.
The not-moving-quickly part doesn't seem like much of a balance point - I mean you're still flying clear over stuff... I don't know what your point is with mentioning the psychic powers/magic thing.
Didn't we have this argument once before? It was about flying the Enderdragon or something. All of a sudden you stopped replying (not that not replying is the ultimate end-all be-all), and I think Theriasis brought this up to you and you responsed with "I'm done arguing I rest my case!" in big bold letters...
I gave lots of argumentative support, which you chose to ignore,
I actually tried to edit my post later in time to encompass the rest of what you said but the forum would just not edit. I'll cover that stuff now though.
Again, you are denying universal logic that exists in Minecraft as well, for reasons stated above. Being a millionaire is "overpowered", right? But it requires hard work and a great education. Golden apples are very overpowered with the effects that they give, but it requires hard work to be balanced out. Fire resistance potions are very OP, but they are... kinda hard to get? Full diamond gear with maxed out enchants is extremely OP, as hardly anything can even poke you, and it easily renders an existing form of gear in the game (iron gear) useless, BUT it is still hard to get, right?
Those are not overpowered. In that context, you're right, working hard for diamond armor and all that is balanced. But there are dividing lines for things like that. If someone who's born in 2000 and someone born in 2011 are at the same carnival, and 2000 can ride a ride because he's grown up and tall enough and poor little 2011 isn't quite tall enough yet, it'd be goofy (yet strangely possible) for little 2011 to go "That other guy's life is overpowered! That needs balancing! Time needs to be rebalanced so that my parents get it on a few years earlier!!"
Having more because you more took more time to do something and having something that just muddles the balance/gameplay of things are not always crayons that share the same box.
I could go on forever, but I genuinely don't feel the need to do so. There are tons of "overpowered" things in life, but they all require hard work and determination. Minecraft is a good example of that, and that's what it can teach people (who are open-minded). Hard work = good things, while laziness = meh things.
Does hard-to-get + powerful-whatever-object = balance? Well possibly, it does add balance, but do those things equal 100% balance? Not really, because it's smart to take other factors into account than just looking at the bare bones, nodding your head and going, "Yup, that'll work perfectly."
Please tell us that "very good reason", especially since this gives a very temporary effect.
If the flying potion is on the weak side, it can be surpassed by other methods of travel, almost making the potion a waste of time to obtain. If the potion is too powerful, then it's... overpowered because it makes travel way too easy and farts away the other travel methods. If the potion is in the middle, then it's obviously better than the first two scenarios, but it still doesn't stop players from gliding over everything effortlessly and still punching away them other travel methods.
Rollback Post to RevisionRollBack
Yeah, that guy in the avatar is me. I'm *that* strange. It happens. Sometimes people act like that. Just go with it. I can offer help with suggestions even before you post them - NOT make your suggestions - but help you with them.
Really? Can't you drink another one mid-air and continue flying? Can't you have a water bucket? Can't you ender pearl while flying which will make it go further? And yes. Flying is more OP than enderpearling. Someone ender pearling can't hover, which makes you invulnerable if you have a lot of these.
What if it did damage that ignored armor per second of flight similar to a ender pearl, half a half heart. which I guess would limit the time more .
of course with all the people who don't like it I doubt it would pass anyway, Though I still don't believe it would be super game breaking, only server pvp breaking
"but it still seems like a waste of time to make this flying potion when there are enough alternative methods of quick travel which happen to be cheaper as well."
"The not-moving-quickly part doesn't seem like much of a balance point - I mean you're still flying clear over stuff... "
-----------------------------------
I am Not sure if that is a contradiction.
if you move faster walking then flying how many times would you use it :p.
but yes I am done with this idea, if it ain't broke don't fix it I guess :L now what if boats flew too . . .
I'll make a quick statement, which is that there is a much better and more balanced suggestion on this very topic right now.
Add me on steam!
Random junk is random:
A few of my suggestions and a personal favorite suggestions. More neat-o suggestions in my bio.
Even if the idea is bad, that's kinda a rude statement.
I know I would be sad if someone came on my Creeper suggestion, and said:
"Hey, yo, ya Doctor, theres a suggestion about creepers spawning NATURALLY with armor thats 100x bettar den dis!"
:c
I wasn't really trying to be rude, I meant there is a suggestion more worth spending time on similar to this.
But, anyways, it is what it is, so I'm sorry.

Gonna slip my replies to both laimbol and swaglord respectively, in spoilers.

It is not effected by running, at least this isn't.

Laimbol u don't recommend ****
I think this is a good idea except in Multiplayer servers it would be like everyone flying in the air. Kinda OP, don't ya' think?
I still Support it though! Good job!
