Minecraft has a lot of blocks, but what if they had more? Why do we need them? Please don't just add lists of things - these will be marked as spam and removed! Also, no furniture, guns, or vertical/"sideways"/"upright"/"standing" slabs (yes, we see you).

Wither Sword

Wither Sword

The Wither Sword will be a new Sword, hopefully to be considered to be added to a future version of Minecraft.

How to Create - Combine a Netherite Sword with a Nether Star (which you get from defeating The Wither) using a Smithing Table.

 

Info - The Nether Star seems like a more "pure light energy" so no, I wouldn't have the sword look evil, or fire skulls. Having more projectile options seems cool, and maybe getting a Trident from Ocean Monument loot (would also give a reason to actually go there, sure the gold is useful but i mean currently the only way to get it is from killing drowned, which is stupid)... i mean bartering... having a bunch of gold blocks in piglin bastions, gold blocks being in ocean monuments... im starting to feel Minecraft loot is now just gonna be 8 yellow blocks of infinite power.

Abilities or Effects - At first I thought it could give a wither effect, but again, the Nether Star doesn't look like something you'd use to wither your enemies. Maybe harm undead mobs, but that's different. It'd be boring if it just did more damage, but perhaps it could fire a beam or beacon of light, which can only go through glass, glass panes, iron bars, or fences, chains, stuff like that. Its stopped by full blocks like stone, dirt, obsidian, etc. You'd have to charge it. Charge for 3 seconds and unleash a beacon looking beam of light that can do 9 hearts of damage.

    Also I don't get how the Nether Star's only use right now is making a beacon, which takes a ton of resources and time to set up. I think of the Nether Star like a pure energy source, so why does it need so many blocks of ores to actually be powered up? I think it could be explored further. And also the smithing table, how Iron is collected, more reasons to explore etc.

    I feel Iron Armor and a Shield is "aight, you're fine now" or even considered "late game" because its the 2nd strongest armor, and you get it from strip mining 32 iron ore, and boom you're "safe" now. May even be the best armor and tools considering how easy it is to alleviate challenge in this game, again strip mining = no mobs. And even in caves, mob spawning can have problems, as in sometimes caves will just not have mobs. Caves right now need a big rework, as the variety in them is certainly... not a lot. You could at least have more cave generation differences or variety if you cant pull of a huge cave update. Generation makes a big difference.

    Smithing Table being used for making iron / gold / diamond tools and armor would be cool too, since its realistic. oh and beds kinda alleviate challenge too i guess maybe. idk i had some super high iq thoughts here but couldnt type any more srry
