    I think there should be an option to toggle explosive arrows on or off. My reasoning for this is because explosive arrows don't really do much/any knockback to the player you shoot at. Another option is to make the explosive arrows do more knockback, but I'd prefer to be able to toggle it. I would rather have arrows that did knockback instead of arrows that did no knockback but made an explosion. Just my opinion.

    I think that toggling explosive arrows in skywars is a great idea! I do not think it would be too hard to make and implement into skywars and I think it would make rookies not complain as much when we are in a game. It is always frustrating when my arrows hit and do no knockback when I am shooting. I would love to see this implemented. I would also like to see a revamp and updated purchasable items for minigames, that's when I can see this command taking place

    Hi! Explosive arrows are used for breaking dirt under players and you are wrong about it doing much/any knockback
    because if you hit a player 50% of the time it will do knockback, but if you shoot an arrow on the side of the player (not hitting the player), it will 100% do knockback. Having an option to toggle explosive arrows on and off is your opinion and that's
    okay! My opinion is not to have an option to add this because when you buy a donator rank, it shows that you will get explosive
    arrows. It's basically a warning therefore it should not be implemented. Thank you and have a wonderful day!

    You realize that explosive arrows do 0% knockback at all and is useless sometimes because most people use cobblestone to bridge and explosive arrows can't break cobblestone. Also a warning to buying gold rank+ is just encouraging people to not donate to the server at all so obviously this server will get less donators, a lot of donators are not satisfied at all with this add on so I think it should be toggleable and I don't it would be that hard to add.

    I agree with you that cobble won't break but you are wrong about the knockback. I told you it was 50% of the time when you
    hit someone direct but 100% of the time when you hit beside them. If you think it should be implemented then that's your opinion. Thank you and have a wonderful day!​
     
  6. Hey there!

    This had been suggested for very long time and very long ago and this feature still hasn't or is planned to be added (as far as I know) I would like to see this being added so users with exploding arrows (that can't use them well) to own ability to turn them off in order to get players knocked off!
    However since this feature isn't added or is planning then please read this:
    At the same time after getting myself gold rank recently I started to love exploding arrows instead of hating it, sure some people don't see their power:
    Breaking dirt for (hackers or noobs or new people)
    Breaking enchanting table in middle (some maps has a-lot of books in middle and when you see a guy is already there just blow up all of those bookshelf so they did't got an op enchantment
    Breaking (wooden bridges) making holes and allow people to fall
    Placing TNT on an island and wait until player to enderpearl or go there (and use your exploding arrows to trigger TNT causing the island to blow up)
    Shooting user in correct way in order for them to fly up very high or get an OP knock-back
    TNT cannons!

    If i am not mistaking exploding arrows explosion are (fireball of Ghast) and I used these fireballs to practice on single player world and I learned one powerful method (shooting a block next to a player would cause them to fly very high to sides or up!)

    I still like the idea "+1+ however I just wanted to show that exploding arrows are not that bad after all!

    ~Thanks!

    This has been talked about a lot, debated heavily, and I really hope it is added soon. I totally agree all of the reasons above, and also the fact that sometimes, it's just more fun to play with regular arrows. +1

    I think that toggling explosive arrows in skywars is a great idea! It would also help newer players who haven't played MCC SkyWars before!

    Hiya!

    I'm 100% on board with this idea because I have been complaining about this for quite a bit. Explosive arrows are fun at first, but then when you use them constantly you grow tired and would like to go back to using regular arrows. Another good reason to why I'm on board like everyone said, they give very little knock-back which is very annoying and it does make it harder to see if they have anti-kb (I know snowballs exist but using other methods to look for anti-kb is extremely helpful and would lead you to making your final decisions on punishing the player.)
    I'm +1 on the idea and I would love to see this get implanted into the game because Skywars & most minigames need a little spice up and something new/different.

    Have a lovely day/night!

    I think this idea is great and I’m all for it, it’d obviously give everyone a choice then and if you want them enabled then do so, but if not the toggle would be their to turn it off. That way it resolves the problem for both for and against and everyone is happy. I definitely don’t think explosive arrows should be removed, but a toggle option would be absolutely perfect. Huge +1 for this.

    Hey!!

    I have seen threads before with this raised topic and I think this is a good idea.

    Sometimes in certain situations it is better to use a normal bow rather then exploding arrows.

    Another Idea to add to skywars which I believe would be good is to make it so you can disable certain unneeded kits to clear your inventory.

    Have a Nice Day
    All the Best
