Red-TapeRecorder Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 I've been playing Minecraft (vanilla with some minor mods.) and Tekkit. In both I have always felt bad for a NPC that is made by stacking two blocks of snow and then putting a pumpkin on top of it. It wanders around areas and can attack hostile mobs, but it only knocks them back and does not do any damage. If you don't know what NPC I am talking about then please actually play the game and pay attention . I was wondering if the one who shall not be named deserves a small buff so. Maybe allow him/her/it to do some damage and give it more health or simply should we leave it as is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Industrial Miner Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 Wouldn't it be overpowered then, as it is easy to build out of renewable resources? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxis010 Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 The unspeakable one actually does do damage, but it's takes so long that you don't notice it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well Pumpkins are not that common at all. They are not rare, but they are uncommon to say the least. To answer your question I think the fact that the Pumpkins are a pain to find (unless you get lucky and stumble upon them) that evens it out. Snow on the other hand is easy to find a make into blocks. The unspeakable one actually does do damage, but it's takes so long that you don't notice it I didn't even realize that. I think a Skeleton would be able to kill it before it could do anything if that's the case though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lothos Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 pumpkins can be grown...no shortages there. and clearly you have not witnessed the awe and wonder that is a 75 snow golem defense perimeter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red-TapeRecorder Posted February 18, 2013 Author Share Posted February 18, 2013 The player is not spawned into the world with them. In order to get them (the seeds) you have to find a mineshaft then raid some chests and hope there some seeds while you fight mobs. If the seeds were in over abundance like grass (which makes sense that grass is) then I would say it would be too easy, but currently its not.

JakeVH Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Just to clear something up, snowballs don't do any damage to normal mobs. They can hurt blazes, and will blow up the ender-crystals as well as the ender dragon, and can destroy paintings. They can not hurt normal mobs at all.

Still, once you get your hands on some seeds, you pretty much have an infinite supply, thanks to farming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukeb28 Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 If you really want to make them do damage, go and modify some code to make them do some damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ampayne2 Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Are you sure Jake? I know ive had battles between them and skeletons before in creative and both sides had casualties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These battles you speak of, are they like villager vs zombies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the seeds were in over abundance like grass (which makes sense that grass is) then I would say it would be too easy, but currently its not. You can find a pumpkin on the surface and craft it into four seeds. Are you sure Jake? I know ive had battles between them and skeletons before in creative and both sides had casualties. Friendly fire between the skeletons? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
