Ok lets face currently pvp is a contest on who can break their mouse the fastest. For the few that believe otherwise a good triggerfinger doesnt meen you have skill. There is accually scientific documentation that shows how these fast repetetive finger movemets can affect the finger and keep it in a cureved position. This effect is accually the original defenition of "triggerfinger". https://www.mountsinai.org/patient-care/health-library/diseases-and-conditions/trigger-finger
Minecraft should change this. Instead it should promote a wiser system of play. Critical Effects are the the perfect fix. First the sword swings should now have a 0.5 second cooldown this will end the trigger finger dilema. Than comes the more technical part. Critical spots are areas the player hits in anouther player to apply more damage or knockback. (this update will take away or nerf the falling-while-attaking critical damage, its only being exploited in servers. (if enough people dislike this ill take this part away).These are all the critcal spots and effects when hit.
Head-- The head deals +2 health points (+1heart) added to the original damage. Good for when trying to take down someone quick and smoothly. probobly where you will be going for most of the time. Assualt
Torso-- The torso deals +1 health point (+half heart) added to the original damage, also does half a block of knockback. When fighting a large horde of players, a torso hit will shove them back by a bit. Guard
Hands-- The hands delay the enemies next sword swing by 0.3 second. Also the original damage. When fighting someone when you're low in armor, or he/she is high in damage. Bait
Feet-- The prevent walking for 0.5 second( you notice this is happening to you when your camera goes down one eighth of a block as if sneaking). Hitting the leg will lower the the damage by -1 health point (-half heart).Then trying to keep someone from getting close and damage is not a priorety. Scout
Back-- If you sneak for three seconds and then attack the back of a player the first hit will have +5 health points(+2 and a half hearts). good for taking down a very strong player that doesnt know is being followed. Assasin
this goes perfect with my hood thread check it out its balanced and useful.
Side-ggestions ideas in development, from comments or from me. THESE IDEAS ARE NOT YET AN OFFICIAL PART OF THE THREAD BUT IF ENOUGH DEVELOPMENT OR SUPPORT IS SHOWN THEN THEY MAY BE INCLUDED. It should be an honor if your idea makes it hear anyway.
Thanks to "Endbrine" for inspiration, If you run for 7 seconds than the first attack you do can have this add an effect if the critical-spot is hit.
Head-- blindness for 2 seconds
Torso-- nausea for 2 seconds
If you would like to see a more skillful pvp system in minecraft please press ther green arrow button in th bottom left to bring up the threads reputation
the battle will be over by the time the two second are up ,plus the person may go for the head multiple times reseting the blindness.But perhaps if the player is running for 3 seconds and does an attack and the attack hits the head or torso the extra effect is added. this may go in the Side-ggestion area
Exactlly thats why I made this suggestion. And if im not mistaken you just sayed Skill doesnt fit in minecraft. but spam clicking does.
Please elaborate I really dont understand.
Sorry, I just misunderstood something. Okay, just basically, I don't think we should have hit-boxes. It doesn't really fit. I think in some cases it could be cool, but it could also mess up some other things like mini games. So maybe have a server command to turn it off or something? I don't know. No support for now. I'm gonna wait and see what the update brings.
This would require MAJOR Reconstruction of Entity Code. Every single entity would require a re-coding to this new concept and would probably take an entire update's worth of coding to make it work properly. So, we would have to wait a LONG time for a new update. But, It would be nice.

+1. Also, here are some ideas:
if you get hit in the head, you should get the blindness effect for 1-2 seconds.
Getting hit in the torso should give you nausea for a few seconds,
If your hood suggestion is added, maybe it should be required to be wearing a hood to gain these effects?
Come and join, we need players

This isn't an RPG. I don't think skills or hit boxes would fit. No support.
Also, though, the next update is a Combat Update.
