Why does it need a nerf, impaling is garbage (Unless you're talking about bedrock edition impaling)

FYI Impaling in these snapshots work the same way as in Bedrock. This was a parity fix a few snapshots ago. TL;DR Impaling in rain is OP ;)

This will slightly nerf shields in earlygame when you only fight mobs that hardly deal more than 5 damage but also makes them not obsolete against players or strong mobs. There could also be an enchant to increase this percentage.

• I love the cleaving buff, as it makes axes kind of viable as weapons again

• mobs should be changed to fit with the new combat and player’s power in PvE. They should be affected by their weapons’ attack reaches(not copy it entirely though) as well as other things so the player isn’t overpowered compared to mobs.

• Imo, hoes should be able to be enchanted with weapon enchantments (except cleaving of course), because it would add a fourth melee weapon(swords, axes, tridents, hoes) which would be fast and have a lot of range at the cost of dealing much less damage. Even more...

The shield works this way specifically to protect against early game mobs. Possibly it could be a base+percentage system for other damage.

Yes mobs needs buffing.

Yes, I think I'll allow weapon enchantments on hoes the same way it is for axes (i.e. via enchanted books in the anvil).

New on Java Realms: Running, Riding, Escaping

Five new maps to get your mind racing!

My mama once said that life is like a box of chocolates. When I realized she had stolen this line from the second-highest-grossing film of 1994, Forrest Gump, I concluded that one must make out what life is on your own (unless you resort to plagiarism, Mom). 

Sometimes, life is also about running, or for those with the necessary mounts – riding. Escaping, from demanding houses and meteorological phenomena, life can be a frenzied flight or a casual stroll down the street depending on how you look at it. Nowhere is this more apparent than...
