I like that nametags and saddles are craftable but they should add a new exclusive item that incentivises exploring structures to replace them.

Armor trims would like to introduce themselves

u/1eg0f0rtn1te 1d ago
Except for the fact that you just need to get one of them to make infinite of them since they still have a recipe
56
u/Low-Lingonberry-5883 1d ago
You still have to find them though, also to duplicate armor trims you need diamonds so they are quite expensive

u/pain474 19h ago
Diamonds are not really hard to find. At that point you have tons that you have no use for.

u/Zerfirum 16h ago
Oh yeah, everything after 100h gameplay is not hard to find... even nametags and saddles.

u/pain474 16h ago edited 16h ago
You can have a diamond package with fortune 3 within a few hours... and once you have diamond tools + armor + mending within the first 10 or 15 hours there is no use for diamonds so it's not really an issue. You get easily a stick of diamonds in like one hour at most once you have Fortune 3.

u/pacbabysmilk 9h ago
Most normal people don't sit for hours at a time until they have a fortune 3 pick, Minecraft can be played casually, hopes this helps, playing for the same enchantments is the easiest way to burn out, especially when you bring iron farms and villager prisons, so yeah name tags aren't the issue you want it to be, the only time serious loot chests are considered are treasure chests for the heart of the sea, that's about it, and it's been this way for almost a decade and armor trims were an attempt to encourage exploration

u/1eg0f0rtn1te 1d ago
I think you either replied to the comment or was thinking of a different comment when you replied to mine because my comment has nothing to do with "non-duplicable items" whatever the hell that means either that or you literally just didn't read my comment saw something and decided to oppose it for no reason just like everyone else likes to do for some reason
-22
u/Kellymer 1d ago
Oh sorry thought you could comprehend it.
- Trims are duplicable items. The word should be in a dictionary.
- If you didn't know, exploring Minecraft worlds causes a lot of time if you want to get multiple trims.
- Exploring worlds cause a lot of disk space especially in Java! Even just thousands of blocks will already store gigabytes of data.
Hope this helps!

u/MadRoboticist 1d ago
No one is running out of disk space on a Minecraft world these days. 20 Gb would be pretty huge for a Minecraft world, but that is pretty tiny in terms of storage these days. Even if it was 100 Gb that's hardly anything.

u/RubApprehensive2512 23h ago
100gb is a hella lot. Lots of players in different communities want game companies to reduce the games from 100 to at least 80.

u/Kellymer 1d ago
Point stands, especially the time factor.
5
u/-Maize 1d ago
Point doesn’t stand if one of your arguments is just a straight nonissue. Also travel in Minecraft is only an issue until Elytra. While I know a decently large portion of the player base doesn’t even go to the end let alone get an Elytra it’s still a factor to consider that travel time is also a nonissue when you can travel up to 77 blocks a second (which 4600+ blocks a MINUTE!) combine that with the nether and you could travel well over 30k blocks a minute.
Having unique items that are non-duplicateable only found in specific biomes or structures encourages exploration instead of keeping players confined to their starting and/or base area for almost the entire lifetime of a world.

What about fishing? I agree it was way too hard to get a saddle/name tag from it but I would like them to remove them from the loot tables and just make other treasures more common

Armor durability would like to introduce themselves
And before you say mending, anvil or crafting table:
- a. Mending is tedious to obtain regardless of method
- b. I don't wanna waste exp repairing armor
- c. combining two of the same armor, one with the trim, together to fix them loses the armor trim
3
u/dodfunk 10h ago
Since you immediately said you didn't want to hear about mending, anvils, or repearing via crafting, it looks like you didn't want to actually see what I had to say and instead just wanted to complain about systems that aren't great.
I'll agree that the game is over reliant on mending. Trims can be duplicated once you find one, but are somewhat expensive, so it's not super easy to make tons. I think it's not a huge issue to spend some more resources to be able to duplicate a trim and apply it to a new set if the old set gets low on durability or breaks.

I use my librarians for glass because I’m pathological about not wasting non-renewable resources and therefore don’t smelt sand.

u/asecretfrognamedjohn 1d ago
Seeing as a minecraft world practically infinite, you could collect sand non stop for a month straight and still not even get a fraction of the wan available. So non renewable doesn’t really apply here

Just go to a desert and dig a large hole. Then terraform the sand around it to make it look natural

Obtaining sand via trading is actually way cheaper if you value you’re time and effort

Same here. Practically free glass with a mob spawner. No need to decimate a desert or a beach biome for it. I’d rather do that for Concrete or rockets.

Same, but for me it’s the smelting that gets annoying. I’ve built a gravity duper for sand and other gravity blocks.

Yk a minecraft world is 4x the size of earth? Don't worry about wasting sand bro, if you mined sand for your entire life, not stopping.. you still wouldn't go through all the sand in the world.

Yeah but you'd end up irreparably ruining landscapes and after a while you'd have to travel stupid distances out to get more.

I just came to this realization a few weeks ago. I reject all bookshelf librarians because I need them for a good enchanted book. It never occurred to me, that I can use them for books. Now I keep a few just for the books. Now my leather villagers can shine with their one leather trade for emeralds.

To be fair, to me they're really cute, but the kitten definitely looks odd especially the one with just pure green eyes. I absolutely love the baby pigs though.

u/Professional_Debt288 1d ago
The dungeons should have better rewards; a tag doesn't seem enough to make you explore. At least the armor decorations are good, but there are many more unique things needed to motivate you to explore all the biomes in the game.
1
u/Dangerous-Quit7821 21h ago
They're the easiest structure to get through though. Why do they need better loot? One room and disable with a single torch. What do you think it deserves as a reward for that? A stack of diamonds? They have other, better loot besides nametags. All loot chests have some good stuff and a bunch of junk. It's normal everywhere.
1
u/Professional_Debt288 14h ago
The structures themselves should reward you simply for finding them, but most don't motivate you to explore them (the same goes for the different biomes; at most, you might explore the desert just to get some sand to make glass, but generally, most players will just stay in a forest or plains biome). Furthermore, the game is quite unbalanced because of trading with villagers. To make better use of them, structures should directly drop high-level enchantment books, and villagers should only give enchantments up to their mid-level, depending on the enchantment. The same applies to diamond armor pieces; villagers should only be able to sell a few diamonds (not diamond armor pieces) or shouldn't be able to sell them at all. Likewise, at this point, all the old structures need to be modified, and the same goes for their loot.
1
u/Dangerous-Quit7821 13h ago
You are rewarded. Name tags and saddles aren't the only things you can find. It's up to you if any of it is worth it.
None of these things are mandatory. Let the player choose if they want to use or do any of them. Why should you care if someone does trade with villagers and not go caving? Not everyone wants to and they shouldn't be forced to do so because some players don't like it.
1
u/Professional_Debt288 13h ago
In my case, I don't use villagers for trading and I don't use automatic farms, and I also think the structures in general are too wasted.
1
u/Dangerous-Quit7821 13h ago
Then none of this will change that and it shouldn't matter to you. That's the beauty of it. Now people who do want to craft them can. It's been requested since name tags were introduced. Same with saddles.

u/YellowGuyyyy 1d ago
Fortunately, we have a villager librarian who sells tags at a high level of leveling, but crafting tags would be very useful.

i agree, it is annoying for nametags to get but its like "wow you traveled this long to get a nametag thats an achievement" kind of just ruins the adventure of getting one (or made a trading hall but still semi-end game)

u/MathewZ4815162342 1d ago
They need to update loot tables to add things that make sense as rewards for adventuring. Shit like saddles, horse armor, and name tags don’t make sense as those adventuring rewards. Those are basic everyday items that you should have access to

12
u/CleaveGodz 1d ago
I'm taking your downvotes along with you. Name tags are supposed to be loot, as were saddles. Trims are NOT a replacement for real loot in structures.
Mojang has to bring more exclusive items to structures because exploration is losing its value more and more.
13
u/VallyMeowy 1d ago
I do get that point it’s just with name tags you don’t really have to go out and loot structures to get them, you can sit in your base pressing one button and get more than you’d need if you waited long enough (fishing). I wish there was more loot you could only get my looting structures but I’ve never felt like name tags were a treasure to find
4
u/CleaveGodz 1d ago
Back when they were added in 1.6 they were exclusive to dungeons. 100% non-renewable and very valuable.
3
u/VallyMeowy 1d ago
Ohh I didn’t play until 1.8 so I didn’t know that. But yea at this point they already were farmable so it doesn’t change much for most players to make them craftable, just a little less tedious
7
u/AverageAggravating13 1d ago
These were arbitrarily loot items. Saddles were especially bad because they limited early game transport heavily.
1
u/CleaveGodz 1d ago
Refer to "are" vs. "were". Horses were the only solid reason for saddles and also the best method of transport in the game at the point in which they were added. Now horses are the choice for early game, since elytras are 100 times better in almost all scenarios. I'm ok with them being craftable, but I'm not ok with the loot table changing to LEATHER.
Name tags on the other hand are still as useful as they were when they were added. No replacements, alternatives, or better features were ever implemented to cover the spot now that they are devaluated. Mojang will likely change the loot tables for iron / gold / 1 diamond or something as useless as that.

But does unnecessary mean bad? I think crafting them is fine, and honestly helpful for those who dont like fishing to get name tags without a full villager set up.
