Quote from SVGK

Actually, my argument doesn't rely on that example, any kind of description text except for generic "tame 5 dogs" (which brings along it's own set of problems) would cause the same issues.

A few things, "tame 5 dogs" is basically the same as "catch 3 wolves" except dogs don't exist in Minecraft. Secondly, not all quests need to be "tame x amount of dogs," in fact, there doesn't even need to be a quest like that. Thirdly, your previous post was all about the example I gave so don't try to say it wasn't by using a similar example that you made up (that's basically the exact same thing.)

Also, I don't understand why people should care if the quests they see are similar to (or the same as) quests that they've seen in the past, as long as they are being rewarded. Not to mention how narrow minded you must be to think that all quests would be the exact same thing or even similar.

People also don't understand that just because Role Playing Games (RPGs) feature quests it doesn't mean that Minecraft would automatically be an RPG just because it had quests. RPGs also have some sort of a storyline, Minecraft, does not.

Looking back on this thread, someone already made a post that supported my final statement:

Quote from Woncler

Minecraft is NOT an RPG game.

You know, because quests are exclusive to RPGs, it's not like most other open world sandboxes have some form of quest system, in fact, it's not like Minecraft doesn't already have a very simplistic quest system (NPC trades). Quests aren't an RPG exclusive thing, they're found in almost every genre, including sandboxes.

Villagers should give quests, and give items in return (like cloathing/emerald). The quests should feature basic tasks and objectives. Some tasks might include: "We need wheat to harvest. Replant our crops with Wheat.", or "Pigs are stepping on our crops. Kill 10 of them within the area of the village." Once again, these are basic examples to get the general idea flowing. It is suggested that quests should be related to the biome they are picked up in.

The quest log will feature 3 different randomly picked quests and you have the ability to do them if you're the level, or above the level required (just like the Enchantment Table!). You will not lose you level and experience, like the Enchantment table. Instead, when you complete the quest, you gain EXP (the EXP gain will be the same for every quest, no matter the level or objective).

The items in return will vary depending on what the level requirement for the quest you're doing is.

The quest log should be designed to be easy to use and understand, with a basic idea like such:


A picture of a quest log, given to you by a villager that gives quests.


A picture of the quest log, given to you by a villager when you have a completed quest.

It is determined what villager opens the quest log by the colour of clothing the villager wears. The colour will be unique (by this, I mean that only villagers with this clothing give quests).

If you are all in for the idea and feel like supporting, go ahead, set this as your signature:

Thanks!

That looks amazing! I love the idea and I totally support.

My application went from denied to pending, is that good?

From what I've read, that seems to just be an error. If it's back to pending then it's most likely still pending

When I look for villagers to trade with, I need to look for them inside of caves (witch can be super annoying) because they get stuck and can't get out.

Here's what I mean... (it's dark, but you can see 4 random, stuck villagers)


In 1.4, I hope villagers are more sophisticated so the population doesn't drain from villagers getting lost in cave systems and not being able to find a way out.

Looks like this little guy is stuck forever...

there are more villagers in that cave, as well.

Desert biomes shouldn't be right beside a tundra biome, it doesn't make much sense and is a bit awkward.

Back from my trip, uploaded the newer picture of the quest giving log and the quest returning log.

"I would really love to see quests implemented into Minecraft."
I think it'll add more "level" to the game... Will definitely make people want to play more consecutively.

Quote from Black_Drath

It's a nice idea, but I don't think quests would really fit well in minecraft. Also, I don't think the development team real like making players do chores, that's why the achievements aren't 'Chop 1000 trees' or something, so adding in fetch quests and such would go against that vision.
Perhaps adding in more achievements, particularly ones related to villagers, might be the way to go, instead of being assigned quests by them.

Quests would be different from achievements, as you actually get something in return, hence why you would do the quest. Also note, if we can interact and trade with villagers, then I'm sure villagers can give quests and such for rewards.

On another note, Minecraft is a big chore. The point of Minecraft is to get resources and survive... And I don't see the Minecraft team stopping you from needing to work (which is where I think you're getting at with the user chore thing).

Quote from AlexanderValkyrie

That is an amazing concept picture. I support this idea.

Thanks you for the complement (and support!) :). Edited/updated example trade log, looks more neat and organised now.

This would be awesome! Perhaps the quest giving villager could be a Village Chief/Elder (With a role similar to the white and red robed villager from Take Back the Night), perhaps the green robed generic villager? Also, it would be cool if quests could give you unique items, maybe an ancient sword that once belonged to a hero of the village, or a blacksmith's apron to wear, or a miner's helmet.

Topic:---------------------------------------------------------------------------

"So, I was mining today and stumbled upon beautiful natural glowing crystals in an underground ravine!"


"...Then I investigated a red glow I could see creeping through a tunnel shaft and found myself in the middle of a zombie hive! o__O"



Well, those are some of the things we could be saying if colored glass and colored light were added to MC!
(images above are not real screenshots. They were Photoshopped by me to show what MC could be like if this topic's proposals were implemented)

===============================================================

[NOTE]Colored light and glass is something I believe all minecrafters should be able to enjoy with each other without the midleman or knowledge of mod installing. So for that reason, this suggestion is directed towards vanilla. We do however welcome mods here since it's said that "Colored light isn't possible." -_^

===============================================================

Here is how it could work:

Color Glass Blocks & Changing The Color of Light


Colored Glass and Colored Light are features I have wanted to see in Minecraft for some time. I wanted to see these features implemented so bad that I have come up with some ways it could be used in the game; it would greatly increase building potential and the ability for a player to customize an atmosphere by modifying the color of light. Based on my knowledge working in the game industry as an indiegame digital artist, I know that the impact something like colored glass and light would have on minecraft would be more important than most people know. In fact, it may even be safe to say that even Mojang underestimates the aesthetic importance of colored light and being able to manipulate it.
Here is a little diagram that briefly explains my proposition:





Here is a colored light mod that CptSpaceToster in a video spotlight! check it out! (ehem you too mojang -_^) colored light IS possible and it IS necessary this video shows that:



Here is a different crafting recipe that was originally suggested by ChadGarion25. It is fantastic and gives cauldrons an actual use.

Cool Ideas by you guys -_^:

UPDATE MAY 31 2013: It has been a very long time since i last revisted this post, and everynow and then I receive emails about a new post, for the time being i think that this post i have here covers enough that i dont need to add anything to it, but it i see an amazing comment pop up in my emails i will most likely come back and add it.


Introduction:
The villagers in minecraft have a very boring life, they sit around waiting for someone who may or may not exist to come and trade with them, ignoring all the other npc's in the world. What if they could do war on eachother and their jobs actually meant something? Read more to find out!

If anyone wants to make a mod out of this, let me know.



UPDATE - (this was taken from the Wiki)
Improved villages and villagers to make them more self-aware^[39]

• You can now restore a desolate village or create a completely new village^[40]
• Villagers can now like and dislike you^[41]
• Villagers who dislike you will refuse to trade
• Villagers will dislike you more for killing their friends or allowing them to die
• Depending on how much villagers like you, they will start to offer you better trades^[42]
• Trades may be made permanent again or last shorter/longer

Nice to see villagers getting some love

Just remember, Not everything here needs to be implemented if anything does. So stop whining about it being too complicated.

Abandoned Villages:

When you kill too many people or break too much stuff the whole village will turn hostile.

I know it isn't really an original idea, but i think i can make it unique this time.
Sure you will be able to find empty villages and loot them, but now with the new NPC mechanics that would be added, you will be able to turn a thriving castle into a ghost town. There would be requirements for how you force a group of NPCs to abandon their village. Here are some i thought up:

Village
Destroy 20+ Blocks in the wooden walls around the village (only if upgraded)
Destroy 5+ Blocks in every building
Kill a minimum of 5 villagers (for small town) or 10 villagers (large town)
Kill the leader (counts as a villager)
Stomp out 4 farm-ground at every garden
Take 10 Wheat from every garden
Take at least 1 item from the blacksmiths chest
OR
Kill every single villager.

Castle
Kill King - Civilians run in fear and some leave town until they join another village
Destroy 50 blocks from the outer wall
Destroy 10 blocks from every house
Kill a minimum of 15 villagers
Kill a minimum of 2 iron golems
Steal 3 items from blacksmiths chest
OR
Kill every villager AND every single golem
All other village requirements apply to this.
The same requirements here apply to other NPC's villages fighting eachother, They will try to accomplish these goals.

You would also be able to retake a village. This can be done by advising your castles king to increase the size of his kingdom. He will send villagers to fix the damage and repopulate. There will be no leader in villages taken over by Kings. You will have to find the village that the king lives in to do this.
The best method to take over a castle/village is to place some tnt near some buildings and near the walls, then you kill the leader, set off the tnt and kill anything left fighting, many villagers will get scared and run away if so much gets destroyed so fast, especially when their leader dies.

IMPORTANT NEWS :
I'm back guys! I won't really be checking this topic much, but I will add more enchantments as I think of more. Thank you for all of the support. It means a lot.

All of these enchantments work on players and mobs unless noted otherwise.

Why do we need more enchantments? :
In a tweet Jeb posted, he said that he would like to see some more enchantments in the game. Also, it adds more variety to the game, and who wouldn't want more enchantments?

Haven't we seen this a many other posts? :
Yes, it is true that other posts talk about this, but the enchantments on this page will blow you away! Many of the comments here have great feedback about this thread, and trust me it will be worth reading. These are very unique enchantments!

LOVE THIS! I am going to spam this at Dinnerbone and Jeb! :
NO! DO NOT DO THIS! It is very disrespectful and although I like the support, we should respect Dinnerbone and Jeb. There are better ways to support this thread like sharing with other Minecraftians!

Enchantments with * next to them means that that enchantment is not my original
idea. The links to the original enchantments will be at the bottom of the page.

New Sword Enchantments :

Spark | Max Lv. III | Uncommon

What the spark enchantment does is, when you hit a mob, lightning strikes onto the mob, but it doesn't light it on fire (that would take away the Fire Aspect enchantment). It deals a half heart more, and knocks the mob a bit (knocks far less than Knockback). Now, I know that it kinda takes away the Knockback enchantment and sharpness a bit, but the effect doesn't work under a roof and the nether because lightning wouldn't be able to go through the roof. The higher the level, the more damage the lightning will deal.

Gravity | Max Lv. III | Uncommon

The Gravity enchantment makes it so that when you hit a mob/player they will be tossed 2 blocks into the air. This works well with Knockback. The bad thing about this enchantment
though is that it will be hard for you to hit your opponent when they get knocked into the air.
Don't think this is an unfair enchantment because it really doesn't help you to much. Every
level, 1 block will be added to the toss.

Exhaust | Max Lv. III | Rare

When you hit a player with the Exhaust enchantment there is a 10% chance that they will lose
half-hunger. If they already ran out of food, they will take a half heart of damage. Every level,
the chances of them losing hunger increases by 10%. This enchantment is good because if
they lose all of their hunger, they will be damaged from it. Also, if they only have 3 hunger bars
left, they can't sprint. When you hit a MOB, they will be slowed for a second.

Incise | Max Lv. III | Uncommon

With the Incise enchantment, you have a 10% chance of getting a critical hit on your opponent. Right now, the only possible way of getting a critical hit is by jumping and hitting your target which could be annoying and makes your hit less accurate. Every level, an extra 5% is added to the probability of getting a critical hit.

Noxious | Max Lv. II | Uncommon

The Noxious enchantment gives you a 15% chance to poison your opponent and a 15% chance of giving your opponent the nausea effect. If you didn't know, the nausea effect is an unused potion effect that disorientates your opponent. Similar to the effect when you walk into a Nether portal. Anyways, at level one, the effects only last for 5 seconds. Noxious II makes the potion effects last 2 seconds longer, and makes the chances of getting the potion effects higher also. It is IMPOSSIBLE to give someone both the poison and nausea effect.

Everlasting | Max Lv. III | Common

The Everlasting enchantment makes your sword's durability last longer. This is exactly the same as the Unbreaking enchantment for tools, but I think this should now be implemented into a sword enchantment. You know how Unbreaking works, so I won't explain what this enchantment does since they are the same.

Repulse | Max Lv. II * | Common

This sword enchantment causes blocking to be buffed by a 1/2 heart more. This makes the total of damage blocked 1 heart. This makes you invulnerable to fists. At level 2, you block 1.5 hearts in total. When you block while being hit by any projectile, it is countered back at the target at 40% of the original speed.

Insight | Max Lv. II | Rare

When you kill a mob, you get +5 XP. At level two, when you kill a mob, you get +8 XP. This can be a very helpful enchantment because you get more XP and can enchant more gear!

Cleric | Max Lv. III | Very Rare

When you critical hit a player/mob with the Cleric enchantment, you get a 50% chance to get a random potion effect. The chances of each potion effect are 40% Swiftness I, 27% Fire Resistance (1 minute), 27% Night Vision (1 minute), 2% Regeneration (3 seconds), 2% Invisibility (30 seconds), and 2% Strength (5 seconds). This is not an overpowered enchantment because you have to critical hit by jumping which most people don't do, and the chances for getting Regeneration, Invisibility, and Strength are really low. Plus, they don't last for long (except for Invisibility because they will see your armor, if any). This enchantment is impossible to get with Bust because it would be easy to get the potion effects.

Hell | Lv. IV | Common

With the Hell enchantment, you deal extra damage to mobs in the Nether. This is very similar to the Smite enchantment, but it's for the hellish mobs.

Clutch | Lv. I | Very Rare

After you hit a player or mob, they are pulled back to you. This is the exact opposite of Knockback. What can this be useful for? If you are in a PVP situation and someone is running away from you, you can pull them back to the fight and kill them. This can also be useful for passive mobs. When you try to get food from pigs, cows, etc. they run from you after you hit them, but the Clutch enchantment would make this easier.

Faith | Lv. III | Very Rare

When you hit a player/mob, you make their armor durability decrease faster. This can be great for when fighting against players or mobs with weak diamond armor. Every level, your opponent's durability will drop even faster. This is somewhat similar to the Toughness enchantment.

Stagger | Max Lv. I | Rare

With the Stagger enchantment, you can completely ruin your opponents aim just by hitting them. Say I hit someone with a Stagger enchanted sword. They would be looking somewhere else instead of me. This may be a little OP, but the victim's aim wouldn't be completely ruined. They would be looking right next to you, or somewhere very close to you.

Fortify | Max Lv. I | Very Rare

Every time you hit something with the Fortify enchantment, your sword gets stronger. Every 25 hearts of damage you deal, 1/2 more damage is added to your sword. This enchantment cannot be with the Legend enchantment because the sword would become WAY overpowered. The most damage you can add to the sword is +5 hearts, and the sword has less durability.

Proximity | Max Lv. II * | Rare

Any surrounding mob/player in a 2 block radius are damaged half a heart when you hit another player/mob. This can be useful for fighting zombie hordes and such. At level two, the radius is 3 blocks. Do not say this is overpowered because it is only a 2-3 block radius.

Chronic | Max Lv. I | Rare

When you click while holding a Chronic enchanted sword, you will swiftly swing your sword two times. This can be used to start an attack and finish off your opponent quickly. Spam clicking will not work because after you click, you will have to wait about a second before clicking again. Though this may be hard to program, it will be very cool to see this enchantment in the game.

Assassination | Max Lv. III | Uncommon

Your first attack on a player/mob will do 30% more damage than normal! This can be useful for sneaking up on any mob/player and can give you a quick advantage without the enchantment being super overpowered. Let's say every 30 seconds if you don't hit any mob/player, you deal the extra damage. Every level, 5% will be added to the extra damage.

Buzzkill | Max Lv. I | Rare

With the Buzzkill enchantment, you deal one extra heart to players/mobs that have 40% health left. This can be used for quickly finishing off hurt mobs or for quickly killing weak players. This will give you an advantage against hurt players/mobs.

Obliteration | Max Lv. IV | Rare

The Enderdragon and Wither are no match to you with the Obliteration enchantment! What this enchantment does is make your attacks do 30% more damage to boss mobs such as the Wither. This enchantment is perfect for prepping for Enderdragon fights. Not to much explaining needed. Every level, 10% is added to the extra damage.


New Bow Enchantment :

Rapid Fire | Max Lv. I | Very Rare

The Rapid Fire enchantment allows you to draw back your bow 1.5x faster. This has probably
been in a couple of other posts, but I decided to go further into detail. If you have missed the instant drawback of your bows from beta, this is the right enchantment for you. Also, after 5 shots, you will have a 1 second cool-down before you can fire your arrows again.

Marksman | Max Lv. III | Uncommon

Marksman allows you to shoot targets from much farther. The distance of the arrow will increase by about 5-10 blocks every level. If I'm not mistaken, the Power enchantment for the bow does not increase your bow range, so this might be a convenient enchantment. This DOES NOT increase the damage of your bow though because that would be like the Power enchantment.

Frost | Max Lv. III | Uncommon

This has been posted in many other threads, so this is not my original idea, but I'm still including this into my list of enchantments. The frost enchantment makes it so that when your arrow hits a player or a mob, they will get a slowness effect for 1 second. Blue swirls will be seen coming from the player hit. Why blue swirls? Because it fits the name. When you hit someone with Frost II they will have slowness for one extra second.

Volley | Max Lv. V | Rare

The Volley enchantment makes it so that when your arrow is in mid-air, it splits into 3 different arrows in different directions. This can be possible if Dinnerbone programs the arrow to split after 1/2-1 seconds. I wouldn't say this is an OP enchantment because there's a very little chance that not all of the arrows will hit your target. If you have less than the number of required arrows needed for the split, it will just fire a single arrow. Every level, 1 arrow will be added to the volley.

Bullseye | Max Lv. I | Uncommon

Have you ever seen that curve up the y axis and it made your accuracy worse? Well, with the
Bullseye enchantment, that is completely removed! The arrow shoots straight without the
gravity pulling it down. After the arrow has reached however far your normal shot would be, the arrow would immediately drop. This enchantment would be good for accuracy, but it would not go farther than what a normal arrow could go.

Gunk Shot | Max Lv. II | Uncommon

The Gunk Shot enchantment allows you to poison or give your opponent nausea. This is the same as the Noxious enchantment, just for bows. I feel the Gunk Shot enchantment should be a bit worse than the Noxious enchantment because it is ranged. You have a 20% chance of giving your opponent poison or nausea, and the effects only last for 4 seconds.

Penetration | Max Lv. IV * | Rare

The Penetration enchantment makes your arrows penetrate 15% of the armor your opponent has. If the other player does not have armor, nothing will happen. Every level, 5% will be added to the armor penetration.

Phase | Max Lv. I | Very Rare

The Phase enchantment allows you to have a 25% chance to go through your opponent. If the arrow does go through the opponent, it does 1/2 heart less. The arrow cannot go through 2 people, but it can still damage 2 people at once. When the arrow hits the second person, it deals 1 heart less. The arrow also has a 5% chance to go through 1 block wide walls, and does less damage if it hits someone behind the wall. This enchantment will be as rare as Silk Touch. This enchantment does not add more damage.

Hawk Shot | Max Lv. I | Rare

Do you have bad aim with a bow? Well with the Hawk Shot enchantment, you won't have to worry about it as much! What this enchantment does is make your shot a bit more accurate. How? Well first you aim, but of course you aim badly, so say you hit to the side of who you're aiming. The arrow will slightly drift to the left, but not completely to the left to make Hawk Shot a bit more fair. Do not think this is OP because again the arrow only drifts to your target, nothing more. If you shoot a bit more than three blocks to your target's left, the arrow will not hit the target.

Necromancer | Max Lv. III | Common

You do 1.5 hearts more damage to skeletons and wither skeletons. This is pretty similar to Smite, but it's only for skeletons, and it does more damage to them. Every level, half a heart will be added to the extra damage.

Scope | Max Lv. III | Uncommon

When you drawback the bow, you zoom in a bit more. That might sound a bit confusing, but basically when you aim with the bow, everything will look closer. This can be useful for aiming things farther away. Every level, it zooms in a bit more.

Brisk | Max Lv. III | Uncommon

The speed of your arrow is increased when your bow has the Brisk enchantment. The arrow will travel 10% faster than normal which gives your opponent less time to react. This enchantment does NOT increase the power or range of the bow. Every level, 5% more speed will be added to the arrow.

Specialist | Max Lv. I | Rare

With the Specialist enchantment, you can shoot more than just plain old arrows! You can now shoot splash potions, fire charges, etc. This can be useful for shooting splash potions at your enemy from far away! Fire charges don't take away the Flame enchantment because you would only have a limited amount of flaming projectiles. Shooting snowballs could be used for longer ranged snowball fights! As you can see, this enchantment would allow players to have a bigger variety of things to shoot.


New Tool Enchantment :

Alacrity | Max Lv. II | Uncommon

Have you ever felt that small pause when you are strip mining or when you are just breaking some blocks? That's because there actually is a small pause between breaking blocks! This enchantment completely removes that small pause which will result in faster mining. This enchantment is very similar to the Efficiency enchantment, but they can actually have different uses. The difference between the two are the Efficiency enchantment breaks blocks faster while the Alacrity enchantment removes that pause between a block breakage. That is the difference.

Microwave | Lv. I * | Rare

The Microwave enchantment makes it so that when you mine items such as wood, iron ore, and others, you get the furnaced form of it. An example is, you mine gold ore, and you get a gold ingot instead. It is IMPOSSIBLE to get the Silk Touch enchantment and the Microwave enchantment because this would create too many problems.


New Pickaxe Enchantment :

Prospect | Max Lv. III | Uncommon

What the Prospect enchantment does is, when mining stone there is a 1/500 chance of
getting a gold ore when under level 31, a 1/500 chance of getting an iron ore, and a 1/150 chance of getting bone or rotten flesh. Why do you say bone or rotten flesh? It makes sense. Bones for those skeletons that died for whatever reason, and same with rotten flesh just with zombies. The higher level the enchantment, the higher chances of getting iron and gold rises; bone and rotten flesh don't rise because it would clutter up one's inventory.

Reward | Max Lv. I | Uncommon

Every ore you mine, you get +5 XP from it. This does not work with gold ore and iron ore. To get the extra XP from gold and iron, you must smelt it, otherwise you will be able to get infinite XP.


New Shovel Enchantment :

Excavate | Max Lv. III | Uncommon

The Excavate enchantment is the same enchantment as Prospect, just for shovels, though. It
is the exact same thing except that the chances are higher with shovels.


New Axe Enchantment :

Timber | Max Lv. III * | Very Rare

What this enchantment does is, when you mine a tree, the 2 wood blocks above the wood
you mined will also drop. Every level, +1 wood blocks will drop. About griefing; It's going to
take the griefer a lot of time to get this enchantment, and many griefers aren't that dedicated,
so you won't have to worry about them that much. For lag, well, it's only 4 blocks at most; it
won't cause any major problems.

Deadly | Max Lv. II | Rare

Many people know that axes do more damage than a fist, but not as great as a sword. The
Deadly enchantment makes your axe deal a half-heart more. At level 2, you can deal 1 heart
more. Some people might hate on this enchantment because you could just craft another
sword, but if you had an axe as a weapon, it would be a multi-purpose tool; You could chop
down trees and use it as a reliable weapon. Why is this enchantment rare? It's because some people may not want to use an axe as a weapon, so they should have a better chance to get a normal tool enchantment.

Upshot | Max Lv. III | Uncommon

With the Upshot enchantment, if you break some leaves from a tree, there is a higher chance that an apple or sapling will drop. This can be useful for people who need food, and the same to those who need more saplings.


New Armor Enchantment :

Soul Steal | Max Lv. I | Very Rare

Every 3 hearts of damage you take while having the Soul Steal enchantment, the player/mob
who last attacked you will take 1/2 a hearts of damage. This is not an OP enchantment because 1/2 hearts is very, very little.

Toughness | Max Lv. III | Rare

When a player or mob hits you with any item with durability, more durability will be used. This can be a nifty enchantment if a player/mob has a low durability sword. It will break much faster which will give you a window of opportunity to kill them. At level three, they will deal 1/2 heart less damage, and their tool or whatever they are using will break even faster. This enchantment is not stackable.

Revenge | Max Lv. II | Uncommon

When you have a half heart of life left, the mob/player who last hit you will have a 50% chance of burning or poison for 5 seconds. At level 2, the effects will happen when you have 1.5 hearts left. Would this be too OP? Would this be too similar to the Soul Steal enchantment? Please comment below!

Burnout | Max Lv. III | Rare

The Burnout enchantment increases the time between damage while burning by 2 seconds. This is very similar to the Respiration enchantment. Every level, 1 second is added to the damage delay. This can be very useful in the Nether, and this is not like the Fire Resistance potion because you can still catch on fire.

Focus | Max Lv. III | Uncommon

When you get hit, you don't flinch as much. Why is this useful? The Focus enchantent can be
useful if you try to spam click someone. Every level, you don't flinch as much. Pretty simple
enchantment.

Final Strike | Max Lv. II | Rare

After you run out of health, you have one second to hit your opponent one last time! At level two, you have two seconds of life after death. This is not really overpowered because one second isn't much time to react and even if you do hit your opponent, they might not even die.

Prosaic | Max Lv. IV | Common

The Prosaic enchantment makes negative potion effects have less potency on you. Another way to think of this enchantment is anti-potion I guess. At level one, the negative potion effect does only 10% less damage/duration on you. Every level, 5% is added to the resistance. This can be useful on witches, withers, and spider jockeys. Not to mention on multiplayer servers when other players are using potions against you.

Cyanide | Max Lv. IV | Uncommon

Poison does less damage to you with the Cyanide enchantment. This could be good for fighting cave spiders, players with poison splash potions, etc. The only downside about this is that it does damage to your armor. At level one, the poison does 15% less damage. Every level, 10% more will be added to the resistance.

Knock Resistance | Max Lv. IV | Common

With the Knock Resistance enchantment, you will not be knocked back as far as you would normally be knocked back. What can this be useful for? Say you're near a cliff and a skeleton hits you with its arrow. Knock Resistance would be very useful in a situation like this. Some may think this would be a pointless enchantment, but it actually can be an enchantment that saves your life in certain situations. The higher the level, the less you will be knocked back.


New Helmet Enchantment :

Breath | Max Lv. III | Rare

The Breath enchantment makes it so that when you are suffocating in a block, the damage rate is slower. The higher the level, the slower you take damage. This is a somewhat similar to the Respiration enchantment just for blocks.

Clarity | Max Lv. I

The Clarity enchantment allows you to see through water easily. Currently, when you look into the water, a blue haze is seen, but with Clarity, you can see clearly under and over water with a lighter opacity which results into clearer water. Also, a night vision potion only makes the darkness go away, not the haze. A night vision potion results in brighter, but not clearer water. The Clarity enchantment could be useful for underwater combat or for constructing an underwater building.

Detection | Max Lv. I

With the Detection enchantment, hostile mobs, neutral mobs, and other players glow. They do not actually emit light, but they simply glow. This can be used to be aware of hostile mobs when exploring a cave. This may create more light problems, but I am pretty sure Mojang can fix it.

Awareness | Max Lv. I

With the Awareness enchantment, You can hear mob and player footsteps from a far. Another
feature of this enchantment is creeper footsteps are louder, and when a player is sneaking, you can hear their footsteps also. This is to prevent creeper sneak attacks and player sneak attacks. Also, when mining, you can hear water and lava a bit better.


New Boots Enchantment :

Trudge | Max Lv. III | Very Rare

When walking in the water with the Trudge enchantment, it's almost like walking on land. You
walk 1.25x faster than you would be walking when in water. Basically, this means that water
does not affect your speed as much. At level three, you walk as fast as you would on land. This enchantment can be convenient if you're being chased in the water.

Agility | Max Lv. I | Rare

The Agility enchantment allows you to climb ladders/vines 1.5x faster and run up stairs. Also,
soul sand doesn't slow you anymore, and when running on ice, you instantly run faster; No more of that wierd slow then fast movement. Currently, when you are climbing stairs, you cannot run, so this can be useful for that.

Stealth | Max Lv. I | Common

When you walk behind a mob, no noise will be made, and the mob will not attack you until you attack them or walk in front of them. This can be useful for trying to sneak across a desert without mobs attacking you. Also, in multiplayer, you can sneak up on someone and not make a sound!

Leap | Max Lv. I | Uncommon

With the Leap enchantment, you will be able to jump a tad bit farther. This will allow players to jump over ravines and make daring moves. This enchantment could possibly be useful for map makers when creating parkour maps.

the suggestion that takes all those arrow ideas and mashes them into one


















































































































~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Problem:
Maps are awesome, really awesome, however As of Mincraft 1.3.1 each map you make besides Map_0 is Unique, and cannot be copied without mods or Admins. This makes it difficult to give people maps to help them navigate the amazing world of Minecraft.

The Solution:
Librarians hold the key to this problem. I propose a new power be giving to the Testificate Librarian; Cartography!

You simply walk up to a White Robed Testificate and right click. One of the many options you have to trade is Cartography, where you give Him/Her (It?) a map and an amount of Emeralds, I'd say 2-4. Then he will make you a Copy of that map for the price.

Say you hand the White Robed Testificate Map_21, A picturesque display of your magnificent city in all its glory. You pay the outrageous price of 4 Emeralds per map Copy. You throw 40 Emeralds into the slot and start clicking. Now you have 11 copies of Map_21 (10 for your money + your original map). Now you can dispense your maps to your people, and they will never get lost again... until they fall in lava...

I support the ideas !

Thank you, also thanks for letting me put your Quests idea in here.

This is the greatest idea I have seen in the Minecraft Forums in a while. I hope Notch or Jeb reads this. Someone please pin this. P.S Great image examples!

So I had this idea for a new biome in Minecraft, I call it Mesa. It would resemble such places as Utah, barren, wide open plains with large mesa rock formations made out of a new block type; Red Rock. Red Rock would be a new stone type block only found in the Mesa biomes.

With this new biome would come new Minecraft wildlife. The biome could be home to hawks/eagles/falcons (new feather type?), coyotes (darker colored alternative to wolves?), roadrunners, bobcats, mountain lions, etc etc.

There would also be villagers that inhabit this biome, they could live in villages constructed within the mesas.
(example below)

One more thing before I go! It might be cool if you can befriend one of the birds I listed above (hawk, eagle, or falcon) and that bird would fly around you giving you a mini map. Just an idea!

Anyways, thanks for looking at my idea guys, if you have any comments about it or suggestions I would love to hear them. Thanks again.

Below are some real life references.
