Well I know there are Downs and ups for the new minecraft 1.9 update. One that is pvp will probably be ruined but its still gonna be pvp. Well this update is gonna be huge and I think I show tiny amounts of intrest in it I would like to hear your responses to if you are hyped or not.
To be honest, pvp was kinda ping-based, and was basically who could click faster in melee combat, so I welcome the attack cooldowns. I also enjoy the fact that we have multiple arrow types to use, and can even throw lingering potions. In my opinion, people will eventually have to adapt, or otherwise be left behind. The elytra and new enchants, they're pretty awesome. For one, we can legitimately fly/glide in vanilla survival now, and the new enchants, while major game changers, they also are very useful. For example, you can easily run across an ocean, rather than use the new boats, and you know you'll need to repair your pick that you got Mending on, so why not use it at your XP grinder? Also, I just love the new End content. It's been a single island for so long, and has had little use other than being a mostly empty world, and now it has the End city dungeons, with the Shulkers, and it's awesome! I feel it's just the spice that the End needed.
"On the brightside, PvP can be reverted through NBT data so there's no cool down on attacking" Tom Quotes Absolutely True
I think 1.9 will be an amazing up date for Pvp because like frezeinator said it was ping related not skill and It also depended on your Armour and I think this will be a good change.
NOTCH APPLES RECIPE WILL BE REMOVED WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT THEY CAN ONLY BE FOUND IN DUNGEONS LOL WAT PLZ NO
Well, custome recipe plugins exist. Heck, there's a couple of custom recipes on the server, such as rotten flesh to leather, if I recall correctly. Noble and/or the dev team could most likely add that recipe back in with ease.
Yo, also kill aura is now harder to use, because kill aura spams hit, and you deal barely any damage when doing spam hitting
