Phantoms rework

So i thought about Phantoms and nobody really liking them and also i belive the dev team also dont like how they are right now in the game.

I thought why not rework them in the way that they spawn in the end instead of the overworld...but not just like random mobs but instead like in the overworld by not sleeping a few nights...obviously there is no day cycle in the end and you can not sleep but thats exactly the point. It would push the Players to not stay in the end for hours and farming dozens of elytras but make them wanna go fast and leave soon. So after thosse like 3 nights they start spawning arround you and to reset that you need to got back to the overworld and sleep. Then you can come back and the Phantom timer restarts.

 

It would increase the value of elytras a lot, which was always a little weird for me everyone just took 5 of them and never ever came back...also it would make sense to get the items to repair elytras in the end which is the only place you can find elytras in the first place. Also it would make the end a little more scary which isnt really the case...you can rund arround with a pumpkin and fear nothing until you get to an end city.

 

Thanks for reading maybe you like the idea

Best regards, Fabian

    I like the idea, and phantoms would be way more dangerous in the end just by knocking you off bridges and islands. It should get a texture change, more purple versus blue, and bone white.

    I was having a similar thought. phantoms seem to fit in the end and it makes sence theme wise. I was thinking that they spawn constantly on the main end island, making the ender dragon fight slightly harder and more interesting. Additionaly they can spawn at end cities, making those more difficult and allowing for a really cool interaction where a floating player can get attacked in the air by a phantom. They should NEVER SPAWN NEAR THE VOID, AND NEVER CAUSE PLAYER TO FALL INTO THE VOID.
