My idea is to add spears a new weapon to minecraft, spears. Spears have a longer range then swords by 1 block, however they do less damage then swords per a hit. Spears also do 2.5x damage to horses and players on horseback. Spears also do 2x damage when thrown, but if it hits a mob or player it is consumed. Spears are used by holding down the mouse button for 1-10 seconds to charge it. Spears deals double damage while on horses if you charge with the spear into a player or mob. And can knockback players depending on how charged the spear is.
Wood Spears do 2 damage a hit (4 damage thrown, charging on a horse, and 5 to horses) and have 40 durability.
Gold Spears do 2 damage a hit but deal quadruple damage when thrown (8 Damage Thrown. 4 charging on a horse, and 5 to horses), and have 20 durability. .
Stone Spears do 3 damage a hit (6 Damage Thrown, charging on a horse, 7.5 and to horses), and have 65 durability.
Iron Spears do 4 damage a hit (8 damage thrown, charging on a horse, and 10 to horses). and have 125 durability.
Diamond Spears do 5 damage a hit (10 damage thrown, charging on a horse, 12.5 and to horses). and have 750 durability.
Like GateFox mentioned, spears have been suggested many times before. Also, I don't see a reason for them to be added- if Mojang wants to expand combat, I think they should focus on enchanting.

I feel a good reason to add spears is for improved combat, make horses more useful, and add more depth to combat. Sure you can add more enchantments but I feel if there was any weapon to be added to minecraft it whould be spears. Yes enchanting can be expanded by I whould prefer spears first.
Suggested so many times. And Mojang isn't adding any more weapons.
Screaming "Already Suggested" at a common idea is tantamount to spam. Yes, you heard me right. Do not state "already suggested" unless you have another one to reference. The reason is simple; the game is 2+ years old, it has a fanbase where every (practically) member has posted a suggestion on the board. This game has over a MILLION players; and millions others which would LIKE to play the game. They all contribute to the trash heap.
Can you link me to a a article that says Mojang isn't adding any weapons.

Have you actually tried fighting on a horse yet? 80% of the time, you end up hitting your own horse. Why add a counter to something that's not broken in the first place?
Oh, and what kind of elitist jerk do you need to be to call the entire suggestions section a "trash heap"? Are you the only one with good ideas now? Get the out, please.

Ok point taken, I guess there doesn't need to be an additional damage to horses. I didn't say that http://www.minecraft...or-the-critics/ did. The point is that tons of people have already posted suggestions over several years, it is very likely that it has already been suggested. I also agree with several suggestions on this fourm.
Actually, why not make spears deal more damage to people on horseback? Spears are a great weapon to counter cavalry charges, since they have a long range and can use the momentum of the enemy against them.
Basically, if you hit someone while they're riding towards you on a horse, it would deal bonus damage and also score an automatic critical hit. Spears would deal less damage than swords in regular combat, however.

I did but he said that horses shouldn't have a counter since they are broken I guess I'll re add 2.5x damage to horses.
If it were made so that you can't accidentally hit your horse while riding on horseback, it would be quite viable to fight with a horse. You could also gain 100% critical hits due to the advantage in height and momentum.
This would then make the spear an important and useful weapon.

Exactly, why I suggested charging, it whould make horse based combat more interesting.

that quote comes directly from the "For the Critics" thread
"trash heap" refers to the general pile of ideas that forms in the suggestions subforum over time
so no, I don't think he's being an elitist here
just a hunch
