1.9 Updates: Possible Potions, Exciting Enchantments
Jeb has been discussing potions quite a bit lately - it seemed in the early stages of planning that potions would be brewed using a cauldron. However, recent comments strongly suggest that the cauldron is being replaced with a brewing stand (seen above).
In addition - Notch strongly hinted at an upcoming enchantment system, complete with an enchanting table or similar object (seen below). While he did confirm that it would cost Experience Points, have a 3-tier system and be "totally random", any other information on the topic has been somewhat cryptic.
With all the recent monster, item and biome additions to the game, one thing is for certain - 1.9 will be a feature-packed release!
It is not 1.10 it will be 2.0 instead
For the time it took to get animations for eating and opening a chest, and the last week they have to do this, I would say no.
I have RPG that I play, and I have Minecraft. I'd rather keep the two separate and this seems to be blending the two....
But if it's something optional where, I just don't craft the enchantments and nothing happens, I don't mind. What I won't be so happy with would be if some boss is impossible to kill without "magicking" my sword or something--because then I might as well play an RPG.
I like the survivor idea of this game much better, and the adventure is more of making the world yours. But....meh, I'll hold off on judgment until the update comes out.
I do second or third or whatever the idea of a Forge bench that lets enhancements be made without any sort of potion.
And books that can be written in would be great.
Yea, it does look like it :tongue.gif:
love the idea cant wait to see it, the forge/anvil/whatever idea to enhance was cool too as well.
and it's still 1.9
I dont want to be negative, but how?
Notch dont tell that, he say only enchantments.
Look what happened to bosses, now they will be in 1.10 (confirmed by jeb) with this magic, but no bosses is a bit overpowered dont you think it?
Like, Kill a creeper with a fire echantment from 200 meters? WTF is way too easy.
with skills, i dont think they will be in 1.9, they have no talk about it.
ITs my opinion
