I say Support. It'd be interesting...

Yeah, placing a Slimeball would add a slimy texture to the side, like Sticky Pistons. It'd be like Redstone Dust: flat, but with a hitbox. Smashing it would of course make it drop a Slimeball.

The End doesn't need work, IMO. And I'm fine with the Nether. Maybe just make Wither Skeletons and Blazes rarely spawn outside Fortresses. (And make Wither Skeletons a separate mob with a spawn egg...)

The End is purely a boss dimension, as coreracer said. Once you kill the Ender Dragon it's basically a giant Enderman farm, not to mention a source of lots of Obsidian in the pillars and high-blast-resistance End Stone in the island itself.

In the first seed, your spawn was right "under" a natural tree. In the second, you spawned in a Tall Grass block. Maybe that had something to do with it?

I haven't noticed, but then again, I haven't played much of 1.4.5 yet. Very good attention to detail!

Pork Beef for you!

There is a big problem with this. It would be easier to get than a poison potion, which is worse.
I agree. The wither effect should only stay with the wither mobs.

How exactly is it easier to get than Poison?

Oh wait, Poison is made from Regeneration isn't it? Ghast Tears are certainly hard to farm...

Maybe you the viewer can suggest something?

I like #1 but

if my sword has 1 use left could it become a regular stone sword that doesn't break but only does 1 1/2 hearts

if I repaire it with a wither skeletons head it gains back 4 uses .

sense the skulls are really hard to get in the first place this would make this a VERY costly weapon.

Repairing it with a Wither Skeleton Skull doesn't make any sense. It's an enchantment, not a separate item (the old separate item idea was to make the brewing work). The sword having few uses and the enchantment not obtainable via the table, or preserved in the anvil, balances out the OP-ness.

No. I would prefer the Wither effect to stay on the Wither. It's a powerful effect used exclusively by (sucky) wither enemies, so it shouldn't be able to be obtained. Not even as a rare drop from wither skellies, as you're sure to get a bunch when you're grinding for wither skeleton heads.

Meh, Grinders make it easy to get anything. Take Blaze Rods for instance. Probably just as useful (fuel, potions, "winning"), and grinders crank them out even faster. :/

But I do see your point. Some things need to stay where they are. The potion is debatable, but my favorite part is, oddly, the enchantment.

I have mixed feelings for this.

Redstone shouldn't be that hard to use. You can't expect everyone to figure it out that well, and as far as I know, there's no official redstone tutorial. (Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.)

However, making all the massive circuitry and figuring out problems is half the fun. Just crafting and placing a block would be kinda boring. The only real thing I want to see in a new redstone block is the BUD. It relies on a glitch anyway, even though Mojang said they wouldn't fix it.

Ahem...

If they spawn IN the Pyramids, they can't walk out, right? The doors are too small.

What about the second level?

Wither Dust

Why a different name? It's the Bone Meal from Wither Bones.

Support block, but not ore. Mojang had a nice theme going with the ores until Lapis came along. Realistic ore not, I think they should have just stuck to the theme.

But the block looks cool! I personally like the old one better, but whatever.

I just now realized that all the blocks in the emoticons use all the old textures, Cobble, Brick, and ore blocks.

Personally, the only circuit block I want is a BUD block, since it's a glitch exploit anyway. Half the fun of making Redstone Circuitry is actually building the circuitry and wiring it up. If you could cram a whole T Flip-Flop into one block, it would be very compact, but not as fun, IMO.

I support number one combined with the dropped stone sword, seriously, i think all the mobs holding a item should drop that item.

Yeah, the rare drop would be cool, even if not brewable.

Quote from blue_cloud

I do however think that having the Wither enchantment in the enchantment table would be very cool. At the very least, put it in the game, if not in the enchant table, for those of us mapmakers out there.

I may merge the two together and make the sword unbrewable into the potion, as well as the new item of course, since its reasoning is shattered. But yeah, the unobtainable enchantment would be cool for a custom boss, like I said a million times. Like a Zombie in full Diamond Armor (no helmet) with Protection IV with a Wither Skeleton Skull and a Sharpness IV, Fire Aspect II, Smite IV, and Wither Aspect IV Diamond Sword for making you rapidly wither.

I should mention again that the new sword is a complete duplicate of the existing one. The enchantment can also be applied to the existing one with cheats or something. The dupe sword is just to make the brewing work with only the Wither Skeleton's enchanted rare drop.

Quote from Dextrous

Brilliant idea. Version one indeed, however I think that Wither Bone Meal should have a unique colour, such as purplish-coal colour.

Wither Skeletons, Bones, and Bone Meal would all have the same basic color, which makes perfect sense.

Quote from Dextrous

Now that I think of it, you should recommend this to Dinnerbone (seeing as he is more likely to accept requests). How about, when you get thirty votes on one thing and you recommend it? Good idea?

Does Dinnerbone really listen to suggestions?

*Flower pots in yo face*

Oh, yeah, that. Does he just browse this board?
