We will all agree that the punch bow is extremely op.

This destroys the gaming experience since players easily with just a bow and a handful of arrows can kill you.
And is horrible spend 250 diamonds on good equipment when a player can shoot arrows and kill you by spending a few 25 diamonds
I'm not going to ask you to take it off, I just want you to do something.

1-Make it more expensive:

Raise the price from 25 to 45.
the benefit that this bow gives you is too good compared to its price

2-Add a vote option anti punch bow:

So that it does not look strange alone, it could be complemented with other options, like in skywars


3-Do as in lucky island and some bows:

Add to 3sec cooldown per arrow

I told this cuz in some maps like under da sea the three players can bowspam camping in the emerald generator, and the generator is on a higth place

I disagree with option 1 and 2, and I don’t know about option 3. If there is going to be a cooldown, it should be added to all bows, and not one specific bow, honestly I don’t see anything op in it, since they made it cost 25 diamonds. Altough you can still buy a shield (pls make shields cheaper)
with as hield you CANT hit
in the moment than you stop using shield they will hit you

i hate the punch bow
you only see people shooting players to the void

the sword are minuspreciated :(
and shield cant do NOTHING if you are nearby
and if you want to hint you have to ve NEARVBY

In my opinion, the punch bow is a strategy. The people with bow went for diamonds instead of rushing, and used the diamonds on a bow instead of gear / sword.
That's all part of the strategy. If people know they are not superior with a sword, they play strategical to still win.
If I know someone is better than I am with sword, I go for the bow too. It's just using your strengths and avoiding your weaknesses.

I personally don't mind the way it is right now. It's too expensive for making it worth it to buy as the first item when quickly rushing mid, and when people do start getting them, it's not too hard to deal with them anymore.
Aside from that, I don't think the punch bow is too overpowered at all. Whether you accept it or not, bowspamming does take some skill. It may not be the most fair of fights, but ultimately the one that loses simply didn't play good enough to beat it. Bowspamming also leaves your enemy vulnerable, meaning if they miss a shot or two they can immediately pay a huge price and possibly die due to it. It's an inefficient way to kill someone unless it happens to work out. I don't think it needs to be changed.

32 is one diamond piece ONE
and this bow can kill you with full diamond set

Why do you compare diamond armor to a bow? Do you need diamond armor to kill someone with a bow?

You can just as well say:
'A bow is 25 diamonds, while a diamond sword is only 12! With diamond sword and leather, you kill someone with a bow and leather very quickly. Please lower the price of a bow!'
