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).

Modular customizing armor and weapons

Step one: craft a forge with stone bricks iron and a furnace Step two: place armor/ weapon in forge Step three: select customization options For balancing purposes armor and weapons will have trade-offs, such as a sword being upgraded to a broadsword and being slower as a result. If a bow is upgraded to a short bow, it will charge faster but do less damage . Also items will cost experience to upgrade. The upgrades will be displayed on the weapon's model, such as a rapier (the opposite of a broadsword) having a thinner blade. Also the ability to dye a weapon's hilt would be appreciated

    That would be a huge refresher for weapons, it would be nice to have more weapons other than your 6 different colored swords and a trident. Maybe they could also add a war axe which might be like a balance between woodchopping and combat. Also now that I think about it, it would be awesome if they could add throwable spears with the same mechanics as the Trident except they can be wooden spears, stone spears, etc. I don't think those would be overpowered and they would add an alternative to long range weapons. Also for your grip and shape customizations for the swords, maybe by fighting pillagers they can sometimes drop a blueprint that will give you the ability to craft a new part on to your sword.

    This is a genius idea as weapons/armor in Minecraft seem so uniform and boring. My suggestion is that upgrading a weapon or armor piece requires experience and materials as people can abuse the forge by using exp farms. For example, if you want your bow to do more damage, you would use string and exp in a forge to do so.
