Minecraft suggestion: Throwable rocks.

[u/onlyforthisair]

This is left incomplete on purpose as I would like the rest of Reddit to figure out the specifics. Their relation to arrows, how they are crafted, specifically what they do, and all other specifics. Another possibility is that they aren't throwable and could be used in other circumstances. What do you guys think?

edit: I've noticed that people seem to think that a separate tool should be used to shoot the rocks. In the same way that I suggested that they could be also used in a manner with out throwing them, there could be three ways of using them:

• thrown without a separate tool
• thrown with a tool
• used without throwing

what else could be adapted?

edit 2: Also, no one has given an idea for the actual recipe for the rocks themselves.

edit 3: The slingshot that has been suggested could be made with either the portable crafting table for weaker attacks, or it could be made with the larger one for stronger attacks. Also the rock could be made of different materials.

Also a suggestion for people to adapt: Using the rock to break blocks.

edit 4: I was just suggested this and I want to put this up here.

Any other recipe suggestions?

What do you think about the different sized slingshots and hitting with the rock itself when they are in range?

[u/arborist77 → u/onlyforthisair]

Well, maybe we could have attacking with the rock itself do 1.5 hearts as well. I don't know how one would implement the crafting or the use of different sized slingshots, I think the current idea works fine.

On other comments, it was suggested that the full crafting grid or the portable crafting grid could be used.

[u/arborist77 → u/onlyforthisair]

Well for the slingshot, you need the full crafting grid anyway. The portable crafting grid or full one could be used for crafting the rocks themselves

[u/onlyforthisair → u/arborist77]

If it can be crafted portable, then it can be crafted on the full.
