As you all know, with the most recent snapshot, a new item was added: echo shards. Currently, their only usage is to craft the recovery compass. This item is very useful of course, but it serves little to no purpose for hardcore players or player who press f3 (on Java) right before dying. All this in mind, I propose another use for echo shards: echo stew.
Echo stew would be a new food item crafted like suspicious stew, but with an echo shard instead of a flower. Echo stew would restore 4 hunger (2 food bars). The specialty of this soup: it wouldn’t make any noise or vibrations while being eaten. This could be useful in two different scenarios I can think of:
a) PvP: If you’re trying to hide from your opponent to regenerate health, the echo stew could allow you to eat without being easily detected due to the very loud eating sound.
b) The Deep dark: You can eat without having to worry about skulk sensors or shriekiers.
However, there are two trade-offs: echo stew is not stackable and echo shards can be difficult to come by. All in all, I think this item would give even more incentive to risk visiting the Deep dark and the Ancient cities. Thoughts?
