​Bedrock Mobile needs mechanic rebalancing and Achievement-friendly

Bedrock mobile has harder combat mechanics than Java, yet forces players to navigate them with clunky touch controls. ​Key Combat Issues on Mobile: ​Instant Hitboxes: Zombies/Spiders deal instant melee damage upon touch with zero delay. Skeletons have pinpoint accuracy and insane fire rates. ​Slow Healing: Bedrock's slow health regen (~0.5 hearts/4s) makes surviving instant mob hitboxes nearly impossible on touchscreen. ​Massive Control Gap: A decent PC player easily defeats 4+ mobile players. Touchscreen blocks view and lacks full off-hand support. ​The Logic of Keep Inventory: Now that Hardcore Mode handles single-life ultimate challenge, Normal Survival (which allows infinite respawns) should focus on exploration. Forcing item loss on death doesn't add skill—it just creates tedious grind when 90% of mobile deaths stem from misclicks or touch lag. ​Suggestions for Developers: ​Extend Invulnerability Frames (i-frames) or add attack pre-delays to melee mobs on mobile to stop instant burst damage. ​Allow Keep Inventory with Achievements in Normal Survival. ​Port Java’s fast saturation healing and full off-hand support to Bedrock. ​Please rebalance Bedrock survival to make it fair for touchscreen users!

    Bonus performance point:
    Enabling Keep Inventory by default also solves late-game mobile lag. The engine wouldn't need to freeze and track dropped items in unloaded chunks, allowing instant memory cleanup to free up CPU for better FPS!
