These 1.22 Combat Features Will Change Minecraft FOREVER

[@helmetmcbarin]

Being able to stack potions actually makes them viable to bring around. Being only able to carry 1 means its too inconvenient to have to go into your inventory mid pvp to get another potion so you'd just have the one potion. They'd just take up so much room for little help

[@AxolotlTGT]

[@unboxing_legend7708]

decent idea. personally though, i would see havig bows early game at that point redundant and ineffective, ecspecially when they lose enough accuracy. u might as well switch to the trident at that point for ranged damage until u get hold of the enchantment for the bows and can put it on later in the game. i thinks its a cool concept but would likely be poorly executed.

[@marisstaff7019]

Accuracy

[@wildbucko]

You forgot to mention my favourite change. The trident impaling enchantment matches parity to bedrock where it deals bonus damage to every underwater mob not just squids, dolphins, and turtles (why would you want this?) but on top of that they're making it that impaling deals extra damage to any mob when it is raining or thundering. So with a trident you really feel like a god of the seas, and I feel they really need other weapons like the trident for other elements, like maybe a scythe for the Nether that has enchantments that allow you to deal more damage to mobs in the Nether (Fire) , maybe a dagger or something for the End (Air), and then maybe like a staff or hammer that can be found underground (Earth) all with associated enchantments

[@krihs_krihs]

Damn they finally changed the java impaling??

[@adamgeigerjr6995]

i always wanted them to add more "special" items. Not to mention a bunch of new enchantments that would just make sense. Frost for swords like Flame. Or Lava Walker that acts like Frost Walker but leaves temporary gravel/cobble or something to allow you to walk on lava. Just so much variety missing especially when you've seen what they could add from their other games like Dungeons or Legends

[@EmiWi]

the whole turf advantage thing really becomes a part of combat. combine that with pvping in a mountain with tons of powdered snow, another way that one person can have turf advantage by using leather boots

The worst thing about the 1.9 update is that swords without sweeping hit multiple entities. There's nothing more infuriating than hitting your friend when trying to fight mobs together, even if you didn't click on them.

[@_shadow_1]

There is a game rule for turning friendly fire off, but that also turns off all forms of pvp.

[@duckified.]

if this update rolls around, they should update the sweeping edge enchantment to never hit other players or tamed animals.

[@nicreven]

just use an axe

[@domz6867]

Do note that if you are in air, it doesn't sweep. That's what you should be doing anyways since you crit while falling.

[@aseldesu]

Just don't use swords, as it is right now axes are by far the better option and having the sweeping on unenchanted stone swords is great for mob grinders

nah, i dont think cooldown is needed, potions are already a hassel for a lot of people to get, and are consumable items, they should make it so potions are stronger than swords, so they have a reason to be used, being strong but at the same time more inconvenient and not infinite

[@XavTheCombustivve]

I love these changes, but I hope they finally also add some use to the fletching table. That and add the bundles

[@Dasligma69]

I actually have an idea. So a fletching table can add a modification to a bow using an ore. So coal gives a chance for an arrow to set a mob on fire AND a block on fire (kinda like a better form of flame) and can stack. Iron gives 1 more base damage and 100 more durability, gold gives a 40% drawing boost, lapis having a set chance to slow down enemies, redstone having a visible trajectory (like a dotted line so you kno if your arrow is gonna land on the specific mob or block you want to hit), copper gives a chance of wither damage as like rust damage, diamond having 2 extra base damage and 200 durability and netherite with 3 and 300. You can add 2 enhancments to the bow and crossbow but coal, gold, lapis, redstone and copper has a 70% chance to use 2 durability and 30% chance to use 3 and iron, diamond and netherite cant be used together. Repairing a bow or crossbow with enhancements need 2 of each material (except for diamond and ancient debris) per 100 durability or just use anvils but the fletching table doesnt use xp to fix it so you can fix it infinitely by only using some materials.

[@duckified.]

bundles are way more useful than people think. there's so many small items i pick up while exploring that i only find one or two of, and they take up so much inventory space. having bundles helps a lot

[@duckified.]

@@Dasligma69simpler idea: just give it a smithing table-like interface with a slot for arrows and another slot for potions so we can finally tip arrows without having to beat the dragon. make it so you can only stack 8 arrows in a slot at a time so it's not overpowered, and the potion gets used up, leaving an empty bottle.

i do like that they aren't removing cooldown on Java. i started playing right after the update so it's all i've ever known. i only play single player so i use it for EvP, and it's in all my strategies. it's nice they are adding alternative option for it, though. i feel like a bit of both is good for each version. i hope they finally make the trident useful on Java too, if i recall, it's a lot more powered on Bedrock, and i would use it if it was better than a netherite sword under water, but it isn't, and it definitely should be. i love the idea of daggers too, could be of use especially when mobs trap you in a corner and you need to stab your way out fast lmao

Making repairs not add to the enchantment cost would probably work as a nerf to mending, expecaily on infinity bows. Also, there shouldnt be a limit to how much you can enchant things, it just ruins enchanting for me.

I always carry a Trident, less for combat and more for the riptide enchantment. It's easier to control getting around a base or farm than rockets. They really need to include looting on axes and Tridents though, to make them a viable option for regular mob killing

@@danielwise5998 On Bedrock, all Drowned used to have the chance of dropping a trident, not just the ones holding one.

[@D44RK_Iced_Yogs]

It’s good that they’re making the combat better but if I don’t see more changes to older items I’ll be dissatisfied with Mojang. A lot of combat changes are already made as stated in the video so them adding more than just what is shown in that snapshot is feasible. Some tweaks to the systems and giving more thought is all that it’ll take to make the changes fully work. So many things can be tied with combat changes like enchanting, anvil’s and the fletcher table (just to name a few) that it would be hype asf if they update things with this update in mind. I also agree with making it so it doesn’t hinder a certain play style. If an RPG thing comes, they have to make sure they don’t take away from the base game of being a sandbox. If that doesn’t happen then I’d be 100% against the update as, while it’s creative and good for an RPG, that is not what Minecraft is. It will always be a sandbox game and I think so many, even the devs, forget that fact.

I would love for Mojang to add a full variety of weapons to allow different combat styles, almost like RPG classes. For example, a Mace or Hammer, slow but with strong Knockback properties, a wizard’s Staff for ranged magical spells, Daggers could be low range but dipped in poison, etc. Minecraft was already designed around the classical RPG framework, it would be nice for the combat system to flesh that out more.

[@arc4na_]

in terms of enchantments, and "specialized weapons" like you were talking about, I think the best way would be some kind of skill tree-like format. You should have to make choices between different options as you progress through enchanting something, and this unlocks paths to new enchantments later on. In between the points where you have to choose, there would be enchantment upgrades that can only be positive to break it up, like increasing the level of sharpness. This way there would be a few different maxed-out versions of each weapon or armor piece which all have different advantages, uses and quirks that fit a situation or playstyle. A sword could be tailored towards better overall damage, reach, area of effect, or damage over time (like fire aspect), while a bow could have a path with better range and accuracy, vs one with higher fire rate and knockback. idk im just spitballing but something like this could be cool and feel more diverse.

[@HiWelcomeToIKEA]

Or maybe you can upgrade your enchanting table to have different stats, and if you have multiple, it could be like a beacon where you have all abilities from it

[@danielluster1810]

My idea is to add the quiver, not only to hold different types of arrows, but also to shoot two arrows at the same time (it could be two of the same type of arrow or two different types of arrows).

[@theamazingspooderman2697]

you want a quiver with a functionality, I want a quiver bcz its cool and can feel like Hawkeye, we are not the same

[@unboxing_legend7708]

to branch off from that idea, i feel like if u have the multishot on the crossbow, it now adds 3 new hotbar slots specifically for arrows to go into so whatever arrows u put in those hotbar slots will fore one of each of those arrows in the 3 slots. so u can have a poison arrow in the 1st slot which when shot, shoots always on the left, the 2nd arrow being slowness which shoots straight forward and the 3rd being normal arrows which shoots to the right and at any point u can switch those positions around to best suit which direction u want to shoot them from. this way it gives the multishot enchantment a unique ability and doesnt take up an essential inventory slot in which something more important can go there. crossbows are typically slow at reloading and multishot is very situational ecspecially in a solo survival world so giving it a unqiue benefit that doesnt make it OP but more of a balanced, viable enchantment, would then mean it would be used more and is more optional then just a last pick choice enchantment on a crossbow.

I hope they add functionality to different tools to make them viable for combat in niche circumstances. Maybe the shovel could attack the slowest but do extra knockback, and the hoe could be a low damage, short range, fast attack cooldown weapon like a dagger

[@semi-useful5178]

I remember the 1.9 snapshot when the Hoe was the best weapon.

[@redyoshicraft]

Actually in the Test Snapshots the Hoe was the fastest swinging Tool with equal range to the *Trident* (for some reason?) with the lowest Damage, and Jeb was considering making them into proper Weapons.

[@Lykardss]

hoes are like a scythe which is why the reach was so high @@redyoshicraft

[@unboxing_legend7708]

i think at least for the hoe, due to it dealing the weakest damage in terms of weapon tools, it should negate the cooldown entirely or at least cause a bleeding affect for 3 seconds which ticks 1dmg per second. it gives it a slightly better use in combat but still keeps it more focused on it being used more for farming than actual combat.

[@Th3IronLlama]

I love the changes to the trident! I love using it but the lower damage made it a bad weapon for melee but the increased damage and reach is amazing!

[@Ad-wc7mj]

For some reason I have this obsession with the idea of a gauntlets type weapon being added to the game. Taking up both mainhand and offhand as a drawback for it's nutty amount of attack speed, medium amount of damage but low amount of reach. Maybe you could even make it different by halfing the normal invincibility frames, allowing you to rack up damage rlly fast. I have a few enchantment ideas as well, likr stunning and combo which allow you to temporarily paralyze entities and make punching with the gauntlets fully automatic and slowly gains attack speed by getting hits consistently respectively. Missing a hit would stop the combo though so you don't just keep momentum. The gauntlets also only automatically attack when you get a hit prior. Ok maybe uppercut could be an enchantment as well. Ok honestly i think combat in Minecraft has so much potential and I'm really excited to see where they go with this update. Maybeee they add new weapons???

[@pitrex111]

Things I think Mojang should add this update. 1. A new weapon. In the same sense as the trident, a weapon that can only be obtained one way, I think they should do the same for trial shambers. Maybe a staff that shoots wind projectiles? Or maybe a greatsword with big damage and reach but very slow swing speed. Either way, adding a new weapon would make a reason players would seek out the trial chambers in the first place instead of more music discs or craftable gear and loot. 2. Locked chests. Having seen mojang add a key as an item drop from trial spawners really has people going crazy about what it is for. My idea is that it will be used for specific locked chests that are tuffer to break and work similarly to shulker boxes but needs the key to be opened. This would prevent players from rushing through, grabbing the loot and running without fighting. These chests could also house a new weapon inside like suggested earlier. 3. Banner map markers. This I definitely think should be added to bedrock from java. It allows players to mark and name areas on the map, and can be used for many purposes from adventuring, to labeling structures, to a guide to where you may had dungeon delved before perishing. 4. New poison skeleton designs. When I heard that skeletons would shoot poisoned arrows I was a little disappointed when I saw that they were just skeletons weilding poison arrows. A new skeleton mob would be so much better as it would have a specific design that is distinctive, similar to the stray, husk, and drowned, making you know what type of zombie they were before getting attacked. 5. A new boss. In a combat update there should definitely be a new boss to be added. My idea is something with a copper or tuff aesthetic to fit with the trial chambers. Maybe something similar to redstone golems from minecraft dungeons. Any of these ideas implemented would make this update feel more of a 8 or 9 out of 10 to me while it currently is sitting at a 7/10 for me.

[@danielwise5998]

Definitely need a two handed enchantment for the sword. It takes up both slots, has a slower attack speed, but has increased damage and reach and sweeping edge is more effective against mobs at the edge of your swing.

[@The_Wither_Skull]

i remember your last video about this, and ngl if they pull this off i might get more into minecraft again.

[@SemiHypercube]

I'd be shocked if the combat changes don't come in this update also at 13:09 I don't think you mentioned the other thing that made the faster drinking/eating time important is that in the combat tests, if you get attacked by a player or mob while eating/drinking it gets interrupted, forcing you to start the eating animation again (so it's harder to eat a gapple or something in the middle of battle)

[@MageBurger]

I’ve been away from following Minecraft updates for ages. I’m purely here to revisit this channel after following it for a long time just to see the outro, and my entire emotional vessel was not ready to hear a calm C418 Sweden cover, but I love it. Also nice signboards animations, they’re pretty fancy!

[@darkmatter-mc5iv]

I think cooldowns and reach for weapons is awesome. And I do agree that Mojang could add many other kind of weapons each wither their own reach, attack speed, and damage. But that also leads into more enchantments or armors that have special effects. I say go for it.

[@Nephelangelo]

I would love for Mojang to let us toggle off player name visibility through walls. Seeing players through walls has always broken my immersion and annoyed me, and it greatly limits the type of PVP games we can make.

[@DiamondWolfX]

The main reason I see people using the saturation regen boost is to survive fire/wither/etc when low health but not quite dead, I wonder if the regen rate change will be enough for that case

[@Dasligma69]

It should be fast like in java when you have are below 3 hearts up to 5 hearts so that it becomes better during pvp and pve but much slower after you have more than 5 heartd

[@unboxing_legend7708]

i never really used saturation myself so i guess getting rid of it would add the difficulty spike but on its own can be worked around and negated anyway down the line and some alternative way would just replace it making the difficulty barely ramp up. i personally think the harder the mode, the more hp and dmg certain mobs do usually the common mobs like the zombies and drowned. as to not make it too difficult, get rid of hostile mobs like the zombies and skeletons being able to wear armour, make enchants and zombies with swords on mobs and skeletons quite rare for those mobs to soawn with so if the mob drops the item, u dont get something OP or decent enough at such an early point in the game. even then if armour on these mobs were to stay, they should at least only have the mobs were one piece of armour clothing not multiple, so getting free sets of enchanted gear without the need of enchants is not easy to obtain. id say about as rare as a normal fishing rod being able to have the chance to fish out an enchanted book and for only specific enchants to be found on the armour to stop it being OP or to skip progress but still be optional to wear if someone manages to obtain one early on.

[@Snakebite500]

Minecraft dungeons ideas should just be adapted for Minecraft. All the awesome mobs, weapons, enchantments, armor, artifacts, all make up a actually really good combat system and would perfectly fill the holes found in Minecraft’s combat system.

[@NotTheDragon837]

I would be all for all of the potion and food changes in this. Actually making potions useful, and not just clogging your inventory seems like a good change. Because of how saturation works right now, theres pretty much no use in carrying healing or regen potions if you just had any food really. Especially things like Golden Carrots or Steaks.

[@maxinefinnfoxen]

I already sort of try to time my sword attacks in bedrock (i only play bedrock) cause it just feels natural.

[@elifan06]

We should get new types of weapons like a bow and throwable weapons (like the trident but something different) with the new combat system to make the update more physical instead of just technical. These weapons could be charged up like Krato's axe that can charge up with ice in God of War. It would bring more depth to the update too I believe

[@lordturtle5680]

I think we need diferent potions, like a potion of vulnerability (take more damage, no shield, but short time length), or a potion of wieght that stops someone from jumping but requires netherite scraps to get any decent time length. A potion of shocking would also be cool, it would deal a bit of armor penetrating damage and disable your opponents weapon for a split second, which could be really useful for going into a combo. and if you drink shocking through a normal bottle, you can apply the effect to other people by hitting them (instant effect on self, but can apply a weaker effect to targets)

Imma say it, for the 10 or so years I’ve known and played Minecraft, I never got the 1.9 hate. Sure, it has its kinks like every new update does, but it was fundamentally a positive. The off hand, the shield, and changing high damage spamming to a cool down are great additions. That being said, this new update for sure adds a better implementation of past features.

That be cool if we could make iron stuff like as strong and durable as netherite weapons It's not a bad concept

[@unboxing_legend7708]

not a bad call actually. i dont think the increases should be at all significant to prevent weapons becoming OP but i do think if certain enchantments were swapped in to make stat boosters like sharpness in a fletching table or u can slightly alter a weapon to maybe swing just a tad faster or get that 1 extra hit point of dmg or crit dmg, while restricting how many times u can modfiy the weapons and what specific things can be used to modify these weapons, i think that would be a cool way to go and even adds in more enchantment capabilites as well. the alternative to thos would be to give weapons 1 unique ability that it can use. maybe a sword can deal a bleeding affect on mobs for a extra second being 1 or two ticks of 1dmg, maybe bows can cause mini aoe explosion dmg when it hits a mob but doesnt destory blocks. the trident can be thrown in mid air during a rainstorm a 2nd time to stay airbourne without the use of an elytra and gain a bit more distance more easily. stuff like this would be neat.

[@blackcat_064]

I think what really needs to be changed is armor. The protection that base armor gives you is fine, but having Protection IV on everything makes you basically invincible, especially in survival Minecraft. There shouldn't be one enchantment that is automatically the best one to use, it should be up to personal preference which Protection you use. I think they should remove/nerf regular Protection and buff all other types of Protection, maybe even adding more types. This could also apply to tools, where there could be alternatives which are just as good as Mending, Sharpness, Efficiency, etc. (but mutually exclusive) so that there isn't just one set of enchantments which is objectively the best.

It might just be the medieval nerd in me speaking, but I love the idea of new weapons, maybe not halberds, but spears definitely. Now I'm just spit balling, maybe add two handed variants, sword with more reach and damage, axe with more damage, a spear with too much reach, but you lose access to your offhand, so no shield, or a timed block. Maybe a wee too complex for cube game tho.

[@RohThePro42]

Nah I could totally see what you mean. Like a jab attack with a spear which takes the shield out of view while doing the attack and shows a split second cooldown on its item box. After the quick cooldown, the shield would come back into view in the offhand again and be able to block.

[@Tri-otus]

Improvements I would add are: making the tridents farther reach more obvious, the trident has always looked shorter than a sword in hand, so it having farther reach is a bit perplexing despite tridents being a type of spear. I would add a short attack by tapping the trigger and a charged long attack by holding the trigger, the long attack would have a separate spear like poking animation. In general there should be more weapon animations. I would also bring back sword blocking this time you would only be able to block for a short second afterwhich holding the button would do nothing, with a well timed block you would parry someones attack putting you in frame advantage (frame advantage Is basically when the opposing players next opportunity of attack is delayed a second while the player in advantage is able to attack sooner) THIS would make pvp combat interesting and wouldn’t disrupt regular pve combat. You could also add enchantments based off of this one where it would allow you to bounce projectiles back (Reflecting?), it could be an exclusive enchantment if you wanted to, for example maybe it doesn’t go onto swords with fire aspect on it. The other enchantment could be making the parry time more generous(timing 1-3?), this would be an exclusive enchantment against sharpness. These are all my suggestions for now, I have many more ideas but I don’t want this to get out of hand. That said I do like changes they’ve made in this beta, I hope they make more great decisions 🤞

[@Waffle66]

yooo solid idea you should look into ultrakill :)

[@blackscreenorisit1002]

The problem with different weapons having different reach is it pretty much makes every fight inconsistent. Imagine hitting 3.5 blocks then suddenly 3 and then 3 and then 3.5. Or imagine someone in a pvp game mode has a trident and you have a sword then all they have to do is sit in a corner with their 4 block reach and you can’t do anything because you can’t get close enough because the sword can’t reach far enough.

I think the attack cool-down increasing reach should be changed. I like the idea of making it into a sweep attack even if you don’t hit an entity, it still activates.

[@sighyawn6378]

i think the most important parts of a combat update would be including new monsters to fight and/or enhancing the base game monsters. when playing on hard or hardcore difficulties only i would prefer monsters be smarter. zombies detecting you from massive distances and coming in groups. skeletons with more varied weapons than always having a bow. etc. i would really appreciate enchantment tweaks in a way that armor and tools have "rune" slots determining how many enchantments it can hold. diamond could be slightly more enchantable than netherite. gold would be the most enchantable. this would give some more value to diamond armor so netherite doesnt feel like a direct upgrade but a trade off instead.
