Can you guys either remove tnt bows entirely off of the server. It's worse then a hacker in the lobby because what they do isn't aloud and they get banned within 30 minutes, but with the tnt bows, it's completely ok even though it is the most annoying and unfair thing in the entire game. Over all, I think it's really dumb and ruins skywars as a whole and every unranked person probably agrees with me.
Hi there, I know explosive arrows have been a big complaint of a lot of players but its one of the few perks donators get with having a rank in skywars - and it doesn't give hugest advantage. Yes, It can be annoying but it's easy to be smart about how to avoid getting killed by them. First, don't bridge with dirt if you know someone near you has explosive arrows (or just avoiding ever bridging with dirt) because the explosive arrows will blow up things like dirt and wood, but build with cobble instead because the arrows have no impact against cobble. Next, this can be good but explosive arrows don't take knockback, meaning if someone shoots you with an explosive arrow it won't knock you anywhere unless you were to jump in time with the explosive arrow and it can give you a boost. (Sometimes this can be confused with anti kb for players who don't realise you don't take knockback from explosive arrows) So just keep that in mind and find a way to work with explosive arrows! Honestly, it's very odd you compared explosive arrows to hackers because hackers are more of a problem then the explosive arrows. But if you have problems with a hacker you can record and report them here. Have a lovely day (:
I agree with you. I am a donator myself but I can get where you’re coming from as a rookie that it may be a pain in the backside to fight or come up against someone with explosive arrows. I think that something needs to be done whether that be nerfing the bow. Or removing the explosive arrows completely, as I think it may be turning a lot of new players who don’t really know how to deal with it away
Hallo, I see your issue but I believe that this topic has been brought up several times by others and nothing has changed. Explosive arrows doesn't really take much damage and in my opinion the ones that are regular are the ones that does more of everything. Knockback, damage etc. I do understand where you come from but in a short time of playing skywars you'll get used to it and know how to deal with it.
lol a yeah i know how to deal with it, or at least i could before they made it so tnt bows could break cobble
Hey! I completely see where you are coming from here because I was once a Rookie too. However, I feel like explosive arrows are really easy to counter/avoid if you're smart about it. Some tips I used to use and still use whilst getting bow spammed: Build out of cobblestone; explosive arrows cant break cobble stone!!! (might be obvious but I still see so many rookies building out of dirt) Bait the bow spammer into using all their arrows; at the start of the game they aren't going to have 20+ arrows. Simple just strafe left, right, backwards and forwards to dodge all of the arrows. Shoot back at them; if you have good accuracy and hit 2-3 of you arrows in a row the donator will usually stop spamming explosive arrows at you because they are low. Push them; bridge with cobblestone towards them, the knock-back with explosive arrows is weird, if you are shifting and the arrow hits you 99% of the time you won't fall off of your bridge. Overall, I feel like explosive arrows are a fair ability, they give donators an extra mechanic to work with! Non-explosive arrows also have their advantages to, for example, they deal A LOT more knock-back than explosive arrows with direct hits which makes it a lot easier to knock people off of a bridge. Hope this helped, 6hb (jake)
