Custom enchants.

The normal enchants in Minecraft are getting a bit bland and boring. What if we spiced things up in the PvP community of Meepcraft? Custom enchants are a great way to entice more players to Meepcraft.


Custom Enchants are basically modified enchantments that give a certain item special properties. These enchants could be gained with loot in the new supply drop that is being released soon [I hope], or found in dungeons/villages. KitPvP could also use some of these enchants to put on armor and weapons, creating a whole new aspect to the way people see PvP in the 1.9 Combat Update, which “supposedly” killed PvP.


Some examples of custom enchants include:

· Lightning I, II, III: Increasing chance to strike enemy with lightning [sword].

· NetherSkin: Immune to fire [armor].

· SuperSonic: Applies a permanent speed effect [armor].

· Venom I, II, III: Increasing chance to apply poison to an enemy [sword].

· Destruction I, II, III: Increasing chance to drop a live TnT on death [sword].

· Headless I, II, III: Increasing chance to behead a player [sword].

· HellFire I, II, III: Increasing chance to shoot a fireball [bow].

· MultiShot I, II, III: Increasing number of arrows [bow].


What do you think? Do you think it’s a good idea? I think it would help Meepcraft in a positive way.

 

Cool

 

My main concern is that since there can only be five enchantments on the same tool, they will rarely be used.

For sword:
Know that everyone pretty much wants Sharpness, Unbreaking, Fire Aspect
- Lightning: would be cool
- Venom: would be cooler
- Destruction: no one would use this, since if you die accidentally, you would lose all your items
- Headless: Great idea!! Even though this may conflict with Looting. Maybe enable treasure chests should give Looting V or something instead

For bow: Keep in mind that everyone wants Power, Unbreaking, Flame, and Infinity
- HellFire: we probably would want to change the name since kids play here. + We have Flame already, not needed
- MultiShot: How would we aim this? Or would it be a waste of arrows?

For armor: People would want Protection and Unbreaking, so we have room for others
- NetherSkin: would devalue fire resistance potions
- SuperSonic: would devalue speed potions (even though they cost little)

Another concern I have is that new players will think there are a lot of hackers on this server. Imagine going into the terrarium with leather armor and someone shot multiple arrows at once. Hacks! Rage quit.

The only one I find worth the time to add is a way to increase chance of getting heads. If we develop something that's not used, then that will only do worse.

 

Could we increase this to 7 or 8? Unlimited would be too op.

 

I'm not sure if that's possible, as I don't really know how minecraft is coded. However, I'm sure that adding more enchantments will make it hard to repair

 

i don't like chances in combat. it should be something like every 3 or shots your bow will shoot a fireball, etc

 

I like the idea! +1

 

Accepted, though we plan to implement things differently than suggested here.
