So, in the recent 1.9 Pre-Release, the "Blaze" Nether mob was added and drop "Blaze Rods" upon death. They currently have no use, but I have a few ideas.
BLAZE RODS
By right clicking, you can throw a fireball up to 7 blocks depending on how long you hold the right click. (Like Arrows) Speaking of Arrows, You can make Flaming Arrows by replacing the stick when crafting arrows with a full sized Blaze Rod.
BLAZE ROD FRAGMENTS
You can obtain these by putting one pile of Blaze rods anywhere in the crafting square. You get 2 Blaze Fragments per. Blaze rod. If you wish to put them back together into Blaze Rods, you can stack 2 Blaze fragments like this:
BRF
BRF
BLAZE INGOT
By smelting a Blaze Rod Fragment, you can create Blaze Rod Ingots. Obviously, you can create Blaze Swords, Picks, Axes, and Shovels. All of them have a power boost, mostly the Swords, which put the targeted Mob on fire for 3 seconds.
This is all for now, I might update it later and add some things. Please, if you have any comments or suggestions, leave them for me.

"I am the last of those who gave you breath and shape and form, millions of years ago. I am the last of those your kind rose up against and ruthlessly destroyed. I am the last Precursor. And our answer is at hand."
I have a feeling that they will be able to be used in place of sticks for tools to give them an added ability. Like for example, maybe a sword will have a 5% chance of lighting a mob on fire or something. But I don't know.. lol
The blaze rod tools could be as fast as diamond, but set everything within a certain radius on fire. Including the player, if they are too close, or walk onto the fire when it's still burning. Even then, the durability couldn't be as much, maybe around that of iron. The ingots shouldn't be smelted from fragments, instead just from regular blaze rods.

This is sorta what I thought, like a small time for it to be lit on fire.

I am gonna come up with more uses for Blaze Rod Fragments soon, but I thought that they would fit the shape of there smelted version more.

Pipes
Other than the ingots it's actually a really good/cool idea.

The Nether really does need ores. (Or something to REALLY make going there worth it.) Btw, thanks. :smile.gif:
Thanks! I sorta blanked out for a name for the smelted version. XD I'm open for suggestions though!
