Ideas for a new potions

[Mr_Aro]

Hey guys and people of the internet!
I have a few ideas for new potions that could be added into the mini games like eggwars and skywars e.c.t....
These may need some developing because they aren't in the normal minecraft.
These potions are:

A potion of Anti knockback

This potion could be used for when your in a game where campers have bows and are shooting at you and you need to destroy their egg, you have no means of getting across with this potion or you get the risk of being shot off the edge. This would help to defeat campers and you get a chance of winning too!

A potion of levitation

Yes, I know there is a potion of levitation but this is different, when you drink this potion you start to rise into the air and get pulled under the bridge you have built and have just got shot off, this is a way of getting across without having to walk, so its kind of like flying, this would help you with the element of surprise and help you to defeat your enermy, but this is a not so good idea if your attackers know your coming and may need some work on but maybe if they shoot you, you just get pulled back under again?

Anyways these were just some ideas I had that may work or may not, I would like to hear from the public what you think.

Mr_Aro :P

Then there is no way to tell apart anti-KB hacks. @xMegaCoolx got banned once because of a similar ability in skywars that has since been removed.

Again, this could be mistaken for fly hacks.

This could be over powered AND hackers would run free. They could just say it was a potion.

There's ways around all the problems you have. Just build a safe bridge, and if you're playing in teams, just have everyone flank.

 

[How2Minecraft]

I don't really think that's a good Idea :P This is because, if they add like a Strength Pot then Everyone is dead, or even a Speed pot as well.

The anti knockback potion would cause madness. I mean hacker reports would rise up by a lot

1) The anti-kb potion isn't technically feasible in MC. Knockback resist is an item ability not a status effect, you can put knockback resist on an item so you are kn resistant when you hold it, but not as a potion unless they code it so when you drink the potion you get the item for a period of time, but that would probably cause lag.

2) The flying potion, just no. They might as well allow fly hacking.

In teams you can have a friend with a shield as you build. One person builds the bridge while the friend stands on the end and holds a shield, it's very effective if done well.

No. People could be accused of hacks and the hackers could just say that it was the potion -1984230480284

 

[Rinbunri]

Definitely a no, like people said, it'll be hard to tell apart people that are hacking, and are using anti-kb.

 

[Thaus]

@CyanYellow what do you think?

 

[Mr_Aro]

yh I guess you are all right but maybe there could be a way to distinguish between them and a hacker, maybe turn the player blue like they have been hit by a spectral arrow for when they are using the anti knockback potion and maybe turn them bright red for when they use the "levitating" potion, I don't know make it obvious that they have used the potion

Stopped reading when I saw anti knockback in it

Stopped reading when I saw anti knockback in it

yh I thought some people might do that

 

[Ping Ether]

No, please not anti-kb potions. Levitation potions would be useful though and are easier to make in-game as levitation effect already exists, and we already have arrows of that effect. I'd rather consired adding a simple 5 secs levitation drinkable/splash (might be OP) levitation arrows.

 

[Mr_Aro]

i guess this was a bad idea then?
But in some cases it could be good, i mean have you ever wanted to get across to that one camper that has a bow and you really want to win the game?
but i guess you are right there would be more hackers in game but maybe then staff could come in games then and play with us?
