So in my opinion, I think bows or at least the punch enchantment on bows should be taken out of all the ladders except archer and OCN type ladders of course. If you want to use a bow you should play the Archer ladder. Usually bows are only used when you're getting destroyed, at least in my personal experiences. I've been playing the mineage ladder a lot lately and I've been in several games where I break the other players helmet first and then he just runs away and sits on a hill with a punch bow and waits until the match timer runs out. Something needs to be done about this as it just ruins the game and is plain annoying. I'm sure many will agree and then some people will probably say it's a strat, a play style, whatever. I don't care, it discourages people from playing at least it has to me. I could see it as a players strat to get the other player off you if they're comboing you or something, but to just wait until you are in the disadvantage when your helmet breaks to then go camp, it's just pathetic. Then again I'm just a angry player who didn't get his ELO. /threadDoubt any action will be taken, I just wanted to rage. Thanks!

Counter proposal, make all bows be required to have punch X.On a serious note, I feel your pain but it's just something we gotta adapt to, I don't play mineage ladder, but I know a few people in vanilla ladder who I'd like to drown in a bucket of sewage for using a bow.

Main concern is with Mineage really since there are no pearls. When someone camps in Vanilla you can at least pearl to them and get a lucky hit to knock him off, again pretty irritating and may take a couple tries but is still possible unlike Mineage imo. Literally no way to win against someone with a bow in Mineage.Posted on 13 April 2014 - 12:25 AM
Bring you own bow and just bow jump to them - good substitute for pearls.Posted on 13 April 2014 - 05:26 AM
Even though I would like people that bowspam to put on concrete boots in jump in a lake, it is a core part of the game, and they shouldn't be nerfed it matches that allow the max enchants.Posted on 13 April 2014 - 04:50 PM
As much as I hate it myself, I don't think MasterG or Archy would remove it unless MineAge/Vanilla Minecraft takes bows out of the game because it's part of the game :///Posted on 13 April 2014 - 09:59 PM
Nice idea for the no punch in ranked, +1 ;) (I think bows are fine but punch… kinda really annoying) (or at least only punch I!)
