This would also make people who want to try to do these kinds of tactics rely on longbow more, giving longbow more of a use case, trading damage for knockback as intended.
I like your moxie Onett, and I can tell you're serious by one crucial piece of evidence:
Exhibit A (from https://minecraftservers.org/vote/587565):
I'm down to do state-sponsored organized gamer hours to rouse the troops! What's the worse that can happen? More S&D??? I don't see the downside...
This is actually... Really cool! I'd love to this kit at least given a try. I think it could be a fun kit to run with a friend since it requires close teamwork to prevent the pact from breaking.
Wow a great update... Except for one thing! An all-time leaderboard, for sitting around and fishing? Athios will never get anywhere if that kind of stuff is given recognition and not the backbone of getting new players, voting. Simply preposterous!
Wow... Someone posted on the forums... and a kit suggestion... Cool...
But yeah this seems like a neat kit. Has a lot of survivalbility which is neat. Neat.
