Plugin Idea: Chain Armor = Slight Fire Resistance

[Slinqy]

Chain Armor = Fire Resistance


Recently I've noticed that people have been relying on FnS too much and it ruins the fun for some people. This is an idea to try and counter the FnS spammers. Since there aren't that many new PvP tactics to take advantage of here at MCSG, I feel the development of this plugin would add a completely new and unique play style never before seen by a survival games server.​

How it works - Some of you might be wondering, "Slinqy, how would you make this system work and prevent it from being overpowered?" Well the answer is quite simple, the more chain armor you are wearing, the greater chance you have from taking no fire damage. Every piece of chain you equip would give you a 10% chance to avoid fire damage (Besides helmets because they give the same protection as iron), giving it a maximum of 30% chance not to take damage.

Why it cant be abused/Overpowered - The reason why this isn't overpowered is because in exchange for extra fire resistance, you are giving up protection from almost anything else on the battlefield. Swords and bows will do more damage than usual, plus it doesn't guarantee full fire resistance meaning good PvPers still have a chance to use their FnS skills.

I like it :3

That would be very cool!

Good idea!

Not a bad idea.

Eh, I find that if that is implemented people will just not use FnS when it comes to fighting people in chain armour. Some people sacrifice 1-3 hits by placing down a charge of FnS, and if there is a 60% chance the charge will do no damage its kinda a waste of usage. I'm sure people will deal with it if it is implemented, but I think something else like Throwing Knives would be good enough to spice up PvP.

Let's think about this logically for a second, 'kay? Chainmail has holes in it. This is what gives the steel it's strength. Now I agree that chainmail should technically be more durable than iron in some cases due to the interlocking pattern it has. However, chainmail has HOLES. What does fire do to holes? It goes through them. Its tongues of flame lick them pleasurably. Chainmail has holes. Iron would melt from the heat. Leather would melt even faster and gold would melt fastest of all as it's one of the softest metals. Diamond gear would also be too OP.

Gooood idea!

AlgerWaterlow I think the leather would burn, not melt.

Melt, burn...."semantics Mr. Miles!" My point is is that it makes no sense for chainmail to be magically fire resistant the second you get it. The Gamemakers of the original Hunger Games didn't spray Katniss's sleeping bag down with flame retardant prior to putting it in that orange backpack at the cornucopia. =_=

AlgerWaterlow maybe they can just give enchantment tables a higher likelyhood of giving Fire resistance.
