There really isn't a big shortage of iron anywhere in the main world. I just mine what I see when I'm going through caves and I often come back with a stack or more per trip. Doesn't seem to me like it's really that big of an expense for what it lets you do. You can stack enchantments manually with this block, so it's kind of insane in a way. I can see why it needs so much iron and why it doesn't last forever. It seems like a really powerful tool from what I've seen.

It takes a lot of iron because it's a huge benefit.

Anvils are really cool, and don't get me wrong, what they can do already is cool... But I kinda was hoping that maybe instead you can actually fix a tool that isn't enchanted, without needing another tool... For example, put a stone pick in the left spot and maybe 1 cobblestone in the right side to completely fix it, and do that but with every tool... Maybe cost would vary with the type of item, being that armor would be too cheap to fix for just 1 piece of the material...

That's sort of what I had thought of when I saw anvils, I was a little disappointed to see that it was just an extension of the current repair system.

Ok the fact that anvils are affected by gravity is simply awesome. Now I can finally pretend I'm in a cartoon and drop them on players/mobs if they walk in my house.

By the way, the recipe is good. Don't change it.

Awsome love the anvills

I just hope that they take the cap off it gets in the way of making really good tools.

It's not just tools you know, you can rename anything! It's good for themed/RPG servers

WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY NAMING LIKE NAMING YOUR SWORD POOKIE whoops did not mean to do all capital letters

Someone needs to make a mod where players and mobs that are hit with the falling anvil become shorter for a few seconds.
