here are some weapons ideas i think are good for the game 1. sling shot
to craft: ]" title="-<->" />
[] []
[] [] ]" title="-<->" /> = string
it shoots stones
to craft them place a block of and it makes nine little stones
(9 little stones on a crafting table make 1 )
+the slingshot works just like and bow and arrow(it shoots as far as arrows) except bullets are less expensive, therefore the damage is less( 1 arrow hit = 3or4 stone hits)[lemme know if 3 or 4 and why]
+its not much different from the bow however its more accurate but the shooting rate is slower(due to reloading)
3. cannon
to craft: [] [] = cannon
[] []
[] [] = 4 small cannon balls(or a different amount ,again, lemme know how many)
[] []
[] [] = 4 large cannon balls(same thing as the ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^)
[] []
+ its very simple its stationary, for it to be placed anywhere it must have 3x3 space as shown below. using the mouse you can aim. to reload it right click it with a cannon ball in your hand and to fire it right click with a hand held torch(4.) or a regular torch. the length the cannon ball travels depends on the pitch of the cannon. the small cannon ball blast radius should be 3 blocks ans the large 5 blocks. (i picked obsidian because it resists explosions, because it'll look good in black, and because there isn't many thing you can craft with it, but steel is another option.)
+the first one has coal on top of it so it can burn longer, basically what it does is, when you are holding it it lights up the area around you but it can still be placed like regular torches but it'll burn longer( if makes torches have a limited amount of burning time) and/or will be brighter.
+the second one serves the same purpose as the 1st one (meaning they both light up the area around you when its in your hand) but it can only be placed on the ground but it looks really good when decorating outdoors.
5. a lot of people have been asking for this but if a lot of people do they're likely to add it battle ax
to craft
[] []
+ i used cobblestone but of course it can change to wood iron gold and diamond and any other added materials(that make tools)
basically its like an ax meaning you can chop down trees with it but if a mob or player is hit by it it causes more damage that an ax would. so its pretty much a sword and an ax combined.
6. SHIELD
many people have asked for this but i have a different idea for it
to craft:
there are two types [] []
[] [] [] []
= / / / etc.
+ here are two ideas on how to use it
1st drag and drop it to your avatar in your inventory
2nd put it on on 1 on the slots in your quick bar and a sword or any other weapon on the other(maybe not bow and arrow and slingshot because they require two hands) and press both numbers in which your weapon and shield are in
to use there are 2 more options either melee attack stays the same with left clicking and right clicking enables the shield or CapsLK enables/disaples the shield
(YOU CANT USE MELEE AND SHIELD AT THE SAME TIME ) itll be too easy
with the shield you can block arrows as long as its enabled and your facing the direction theyre coming from
6. this is not really weapon its just an idea
dough
i think its unrealistic how three in a row make bread
it should make dough and when you cook dough in a furnace it makes bread and you can make other foods with dough(like pizza)
if you like this idea post( ) on the bottom
please tell me what you think of this even if its a bad idea(i know most of these have been mention)
ya weapons do get suggested a lot... i guess it's just the first thing that pops to mind when people join (i know it happened to me.)
well since we do have a topic for weapons i think i should suggest an idea i had. i pike, basically you put a sword on two sticks
and this doubles the range of the weapon but adds a minimum range, mostly so you can hit things through murder holes, and to give you a better shot at killing creepers. if you don;t like it then well, i guess it goes with this topics theme.

also suggested.
. . . doesn't such an idea seem to you like it would have been suggested as well?
just go through all the things that would make gameplay easier and then think of a reasonably expensive yet appropriate crafting recipe for it. Chances are it's been suggested.
Why don't people try to solve the problem of what they feel like they want to accomplish in minecraft, what sort of content adds to self-imposed goals like -shelter > robust shelter- create new drives for the player that are actually interesting.
Those are the kinds of ideas that are lacking, because then you'd have a place to fit new ideas for crafting recipes. As it is now, ideas are redundant with the game as it is and redundant with other ideas.

thank you, i think i shall go and ponder that.
Great idea since glass is the easiest thing to break,,
Diamond would be better.
no glas is representing dimond, steel, stone etc..
