I LOOKED UP 'GRAVITY STAFF' IN THE SEARCH BAR AND FOUND NOTHING, SO PROVIDE A LINK IF YOU SAY "ALREADY SUGGESTED"
There, now that that has been said, to the actual suggestion.
What I wish to add is a nice little 'end game' reward, called the Gravity Staff (or the Anti-Gravity Staff, I don't really care which). This mystical item would allow you to launch monsters to the sky limit, to kill them instantly when they fall. Now, you might be thinking: "WHAT, NEAR INSTANT DEATH? Must be over-powered." But the crafting recepie should be just expensive enough that it somehow wouldn't be OP. The crafting recepie would be:
(where is a redstone dust)
The Gravity Staff would only have 2,000 uses, so it wouldn't be TOO overpowered.
Also, just so it wouldn't work when spelunking, it just makes them move up ~60 blocks, so they would just hit the ceiling if there was one. Any suggestions? Do you like the idea? If you think my idea was absolutely awesome, then vote so in the above poll and hit the + button in the lower-left corner of this post!
EDIT: Just to clear this up, this would mainly be a fun item and wouldn't/shouldn't work on players in SMP.
Err what good would that do in a cavern?
And if something like that was introduced, there could be different varieties: like the watches (is this still a mod?), there's iron, gold, and diamond, diamond providing the most accurate time. The staffs could be similar, with the best variety having unlimited uses- given that it's practically useless underground, it wouldn't be OP anyway.

It IS useless underground, and it is meant to be useless underground. There is still night-time and pigs in Minecraft, last I checked.

Ladies and gentlemen, Hell has frozen over, and Satan is putting on ice skating shows for charity.
You've gotten an extremely fruitful world and/or have spent a crap-ton of time on said world. Would it not be nice to have SOME SORT of fun reward?
Look, even if you have 5 diamonds, 2 lava, 3 iron, and 1 redstone at any time, that's 2000 mobs killed instantly! Also, this would f*** up pvp servers to no end.

True. Maybe if it just wouldn't work on players, and/or have the uses be dropped? Maybe the 'diamonds' should be diamond blocks? You leave me with so many questions!
I've added a new poll option as well, so you people should look at it.
I think it would be overpowered since stronger enemies are to come.
If it was just a "Fun item" it would be pretty much pointless other than frustrating people when they found out they just wasted items on a pointless item. Most "Fun items" just last about 30 seconds for me before getting boring because of lack of new game mechanics or possibilities.
Also adding diamonds to the recipe does not magically make items balanced all of the time. There are loads of people who get diamonds within their first day. I even saw a letsplayer who did it within 5 minutes of a new world.
Hm. It generally takes me FOREVER to get diamonds, unless I "cheat" and use a world stuffed with them like worstseedever is.

And second, it is OP. ADDING DIAMONDS TO A RECIPE DOES, IN NO WAY, MAKE IT NOT OP. I have over 100 diamonds, hundreds of redstone, and 78 obsidian. Should I be able to insta-kill 78 thousand mobs?

Should I only have it 1,000? 500? What do you think?
EDIT Sorry for triple-post.
