New moon event

under review

Every time there’s a new moon, mob spawning rate is multiplied by 1,5 or 2, making it a dangerous night. Also it’ll be cool that phantoms atack on new moon no matter if you slept or not.

    its an interesting idea, but it could turn more hard that the player can handle with time.

    really cool idea i think mojang really needs too add more difficulty to the game cuz now it seems too easy and different events could shake it up

    How about a new mountain event for the 1.17 update of Minecraft. It would be cool if we could see a new wave based event in the 1.17 update maybe incorporating one or more of the mobs teased in the Minecraft live 2020 advert. An idea for this could be a moon rabbit event including two possible options for summoning, one being putting a carrot on a beacon in a mountain biome at night which spawns a more passive event where the rabbits are friendly. The other being putting a rabbit foot on a beacon in a mountain biome at night which spawns a wave based angry rabbit army with large, medium and small(normal) sized rabbits and some sort of weapon. perhaps the small rabbits ride on the backs of goats(if they are added in the update). I just thought this would be a fun side event to add to the game that would maybe add a new item or two to the game. Please vote if you like the idea.

    YES this would be an awesome way to bring back that first night feeling. Maybe you can’t sleep during it either

    I like the concept of this idea but right now mob spawning is already so bad and enemies get spammed in random spots. I do think that this idea will come sometime in the future but right now really isn't really the best time.

    If this idea is considered to implement in game please confine it to HARDCORE mode Only.

    Maybe add to more life on sky like asteroid shower, rainbow, shooting stars, constellations, eclipses of the sun and moon

    Actually, just fix phantoms by only letting them come out on a New Moon.

    Maybe this could happen on a "blood moon" instead, which happens in one in three full moons on hard mode.  Like the post said, mob spawning could be doubled.  Also, all mobs could spawn with strength or resistance, and a 100% chance of having either armor or a weapon.  The Blood Moon would dampen all light just enough so that mobs could spawn anywhere except right next to the light source.  Lightning would strike no matter what the weather, and if a villager was struck by lightning, they would turn into a wild wolf instead of a witch like normal.

    I think that instead of spawning more mobs, there would be a rare chance that during a new moon, dead pets and mobs that were named come back as ghosts that wander around your world. When the sun comes up, they disappear.

    This is an interesting idea, personally, I quite like the idea of an eclipse, no hostile mobs spawn but it is still dark, you can still sleep though and you will be able to skip to the end of the eclipse - maybe it is half as long as the night - if you are quick enough you might even be able to throw an offering - something valuable (diamond, emerald, iron, copper, gold, netherite) on the ground near your bed, once you go to sleep and wake up, what gift have you been given, what does it contain, is it a ceramic shard, you will just have to wait and see.

    Maybe not being able to sleep during these events would add more of a challenge.

    Would be nice to also up the number of mobs with armor/weapon drops to give a reward if you decide to take the risk. A few data packs and mod like this are very fun and given it's not every night makes it special.

    If phantoms spawn in a new or full moon, then the player would be unable to sleep until they are all defeated. That would be unique.

    there should just be an update relating to the moon i think, its an old feature that pretty much hasn't changed at all besides a slight shape change, maybe this could be a Blood moon event (changes neutral mobs into hostiles, and increases regular hostile mob strength), a harvest moon event (helps with farming and maybe food crafting), a blue moon event (maybe something to do with the Luck effect if they want to bring that back), and (if possible) being able to go to the moon. Minecraft is a fantasy game and the moon is associated with a LOT of fantasy elements

    I think nights should be darker at new moon and lighter at full moon

    Maybe it is especially hard to survive the night on that night only.  But, the loot drops are x1,5 as well as you get an achievment once you survive a new moon.  New moons should be the deafalt first night, to mske it more scaryer.
