limit the axe armor damage bonus ability
« on: July 04, 2014, 03:29:55 am »
I have noticed something over the past few days of playing and training axes. My main concern is about the axe's armor bonus damage ability. While it's a fitting ability, it's a bit over powered. people like me, jimmy, and lucasrx can easily ruin diamond armor and break it. Want proof? I wrecked an entire set of elite 4 armor in just over 32 seconds during my fight with prodigy39, and Lucas could ruin one in about 20sec. I feel like there should be a limit on this ability, or at least a huge nerf seeing how in 15-22 hits, some of the veteran players can easily break a normal set of dia. This is also causing a shortage of diamonds on the server in general. Many players have none cause players broke them all with axes and unless you have saved up, or raided an arena of materials like edders1234 and sell them, those materials are going to be extremely hard to come by. Even iron armor can be destroyed in gym fight in a few hits. Please consider lowering the armor bonus damage rate or at the very least, put a limit on this. Thank you for your time! :)

maybe disable all extra armor damage past level 1000?
i think axes is the only ability that continues to get stronger past 1000, so i think that's fair

At 1000? Honestly The armor break I think is not even over 25% When I hit 2000 It was just around the 50%. I think the max could be good around 1500.  Lets not have all the pvp go down hill.

Shortage of diamonds? Bring it on, something needs to fix the economy.

Here are my ideas.
1. we could limit the armor damage maximum to about 25, not too high nor low.
2. nerf the axe armor damage by at least 40%.
3. have a way to control it, like a chance of it happening.

Shortage of diamonds? Bring it on, something needs to fix the economy.

I no understand what you mean, Tene

Swords get more Serrated Strikers time and Unarmed get more berserk time

Usually I dont get into these kind of things but, I think axes are fine where it is, I know the higher the level the higher more damage gets done to armor and other crap but, We already nerfed archery, we nerfed unarmed, and im not sure if we already nerfed swords too. Its called pvp for a reason not nerf the hell out of every stat because people are unhappy it. Theirs also Pixelmon for a reason. It puts up more of a challenge for new people and older people to level and defeat gyms. I think of it as its more of the technique you need to use pvp for. People think i'm the strongest because of my stats well i'm not.


Ps. Also I think Tene's right about shortage of diamonds.

The problem is not the damage and strength of the weapon, it's the ability behind it, the armor damage bonus. The axe's damage to players is a bit higher then I'd like but it's ok. A main concern is that players with a decent axe stat can easily just destroy a set of armor, and diamonds is pretty hard to come by in this day an age. The only reason there is still dia left over is because of players like edders1234. He changed the arena to claim all the dia, iron, gold, and emeralds the arena was made from and sold some of it. if the armor damage isn't reduced, players will easily blow through their diamond supply repairing their gear, or making new pieces since it broke. it's not that I want armor damaged nerfed because of me thinking it's " too good cause I said so", this is a huge issue concerning the server's in game resources! There's just not enough diamonds to be mined, dug, or fished to keep the players supplied fighting others with 1,000+ axes.

Diamonds are pretty easy to get if you have I think it is 350+ excavation.

I thought people still did stat grinding in mob caves? Do that for a week and your stats just skyrocket. Anyways, easy way for me to counter high axes; high unarmed for disarm chances. Still, diamonds aren't that hard to come by if you ask the right people.
But you shouldn't have to call on us to hold your hand for every step of trying to resolve an issue.

If you are short on diamonds just go grab yourself a pickaxe with fortune 3 and just go dig for hours, I got about 2 stacks of diamonds around 3-4 hours. Also the game is called MINEcraft just go mine, I rarely see people go mining nowadays.


P.S In 1.8 diamonds are going to be about 25% rarer.

The thing about diamonds are gonna be rarer, that happened in 1.8 beta didn't see the word beta, so I made a mistake.

Well the excuse of not having enough diamonds is because no one goes mining...
