Aiming enchantment for Bows

So the aiming enchant would be an enchantment for bows. It would make the bow more accurate and make wobble less.

There are three tiers of Aiming:

Aiming I: 10% more accurate and 5% less wobbly 

Aiming II: 40% more accurate and 20% less wobbly

Aiming III: 80% more accurate and 50% less wobbly

    While that does seem like a good idea, I don't think the bow will need an enchant like this because the decreased accuracy isn't that bad.

    I kind of agree with Blast Burner, it would still be nice to have though. E. g. for minigames where sniping is a thing.

    I feel like an expanded time before bow fatigue could work better:

    • Aiming I: +2 seconds (5 seconds before getting bow fatigue)
    • Aiming II: +4 seconds (7 seconds before getting bow fatigue)
    • Aiming III: +7 seconds (10 seconds before getting bow fatigue)

    I would also suggest renaming it to: Pull Endurance

    This don't makes sense. Bow fatigue was added to nerf bows. Do you know about campers?, because those players make the PvP unfair, so the bow needed some kind of nerf, specially due to Punch and Power V.

    Also, 3 seconds are perfect, and I say that as a player who constantly uses a bow on several servers. I can shoot arrows with precision, and there wouldn't be campers on the game.

    Or just remove the accuracy mechanic entirely. Stop nerfing bows, and instead buff the crossbow to be more useful. Maybe include some more encantments on it orsome bow enchantments. Or make the arrows from crossbow move faster on a crossbow, or makke it soarrows fured f4oma crossbow dealmore damge or knocknack like with different tiers of weapons. Dn't just change bows like that. This will become just as annoying as the weapon draw time that was implemented a while back.

    I think this is a great idea. Maybe make accuracy an attribute as well, so it can be customized by map makers?

    Diego Jesus medina lopez I had the same idea (albeit with different amount of times before the bow shakes). I made a separate post for it.

    This is perfect since now if a bow or a trident is held for too long it gets "wobbly"

    Why not? But it's not that it will be in demand, the density of shelling is much more practical, rather it is "for a complete set."

    Yes, I agree with you. If the developers are going to add a bow fatigue mechanic, an aiming enchantment would be necessary. But I think Aiming III should completely remove inaccuracy, like this:

    • Aiming I: +3 seconds before bow fatigue
    • Aiming II: +5 seconds before bow fatigue
    • Aiming III: bow fatigue removed

    I think that the crossbow should have "hit accuracy". And the bow should increase the aiming time without shaking.
