more combat changes and nerfing the offhand? rip me. A lot of this sounds dumb and unnecessary

yep. I don't like it either

FamousZAmos

the trident sounds interesting but more like as a mod or something, not an ingame item

lanekids40

yea but depending on how to craft/obtain it and how much damage it does with the enchantments it could be the new god weapon.

FamousZAmos

maybe. I do like how it's meele/ranged though (so long as the ranged damage is low and the melee is high) I also really hope it can have the current enchantments such as sharpness and fire aspect or whatnot. We'll see.

lanekids40

it might be able to have both power and sharpness. but with the different damage, this is mojang here, the ranged and melee will probably do the same damage

xT3Kx ascended into the skies enraged by the call of his worshipers. He dove from the skies and smote Jeb into a pile of gently sizzling ashes, splattering Jeb all around the room. At Jeb's computer was a minecraft world which jeb had been playing. Jeb had clearly put massive amounts of work into his house, but T3k's fury was too great. With a noise louder than thunder, T3k released a thousand MegaStuffed Oreo souls into the world. They destroyed everything in sight, razing houses, farms, and villager's homes without mercy. T3k roared a might laugh at Jeb's pitiful existence. T3k flew off into the night sky, content he had satisfied his worshipers. That night, the sacrificial pit ran over with minecraft official foam diamond swords and gold bars, T3k became stronger than ever after the sacrifices, prepared to do his divine duties another day.
