--Some have issues with the fact that iron armor is still pretty strong even though iron is common. What if beating the dragon in Hard Mode unlocks Very Hard? That way, it seemed like the point of adding the dragon all along!
--How difficult would Very Hard be? Mobs would be exactly the same but would spawn 2x as much and armors would take half the damage they do now. Why? because very hard mode players utilize enchants, possibly even potions, to overcome the mobs.
"but you don't get enchants at the beginning of the game."
You only need 5 diamond, and that's a sacrifice someone from very hard is willing to make. It would give an interesting way to go about the challenge deficit.

Better idea for very hard mode that isn't complicated. Remove daytime.

Beating the Dragon gives you a WHOLE lot of XP, and you feel awesome when you kill it. Thats all i need. But adding another game mode so you can do it all again? It seems pretty useless.

I bet there would be masses of people willing to kill the dragon just to start on a mode that actually challenges them decently. Hard mode would be an easier practice run basically.
Ok, remove daylight and turn all mobs into charged creepers, is that hard enough for you yet?
That's like a 4 yo.'s solution to the problem.
Those of us who enjoy the game the way it is but feel armor is still really strong do not want the game to be slathered with shitty mindless bomb spam.

Lets make a solution together then. How about in very hard mode you can oly use the chainmail armor, and there is no daylight. This would increae difficulty of mobs without mindless bomb spam and make armor worse. happy?

My focus is more on the fact of unlocking very hard by way of defeating the dragon, I couldn't care less in what way that mode was made more difficult. I'm almost positive Jeb would make minimal changes but increase spawn rate, he wouldn't trash the mode.
Also remember, you can change modes at any time. I could change to hard then put on a diamond set and change back and it would glitch out.
