I started playing on day 1. I have been pretty smart about mining. I don't mine stone. Just dirt, cobble or minerals that I can see. To date, with fairly normal gameplay I have 10 diamonds (I used about another 8 or so...for two picks and 1 sword), and in storage I have 3 stacks of Iron (192 bars). I agree that increasing durability would be nice. But is it really needed? Not really. I would think maybe make Diamond picks more durable. I have no problem finding Iron - my luck hasn't been as good finding Diamonds and making Diamond Picks more durable would allow me and others to "explore" a bit deeper in the lower levels.
Yes! When I mine, I find bringing diamond useless, bring 6-8 iron picks with you with full protection I/II iron armor, and you get pretty much the same result. This would make diamonds useful
lol pie, don't wear armor. lava is instant death. i know because i was walking on dirt and placed a torch... I have found quite a bit of errors with this plugin, and must warn you it is now dangerous to ride in minecars and boats. Everybody post stuff about adding more config on the dev page and maybe they will change it.
^^I already fell into lava since I started playing on Shadecrest again, but with the help of my water bucket I was fine As for pick durability on stone, I have not really mined stone that much, but I am making good progress on gathering resources, but no diamonds yet.
Yea im back Already got onto ts3 and got to talk to arch for a while. Still on ts3 actually... side note... the nether is now officially hell.....I died 2 blocks from the portal lol.
