The Fireball Problem In Bedwars

Don’t you hate it when you fireball a player and it just doesn’t hit them and instead breaks a block that is somewhat close to them? Or when you try fireballing a bed defense and it hits a player instead?

well I have an idea- make fireballs break blocks AND damage the enemy, instead of just randomly choosing which thing to do.

and also make it to where fireballs don’t damage or knock-back the sender, because everyone hates it when they die to their own fireball.

I think they need to keep KB because someone can do something like a fireball jump or somethin like that. Otherwise I like this idea

We have Wind Charge for that.

But uhh sorry to break your word abt wind charges BUT THE KB IS INSANE

The best thing to change would be that u should not take any damage from your own fireball.

Fireballs in Bedwars are crazy broken. I’ve said it before and i’ll say it again, their potential to be abused and spammed is absolutely insane, and I don’t know what exactly the logic behind adding a feature like that was without a cool down or nerf or anything. One of the few traits that fireballs actually have that is some form of balance is that they damage and knockback the thrower. This makes spamming them harder (which isn’t to say it doesn’t happen/isn’t a problem), but removing this would make fireballs so much easier to use a crutch when already their power is highly questionable and honestly kinda insane.

Yes! The fireballs seems very inconsistent… Also not damaging the sender would be amazing, but I would still want the knockback to affect the sender, so you could clutch with fireballs, in case you have nothing else

How bad could it possibly be. :wink:

Thou maybe just have fireballs work like ender pearls, with a cool down of 3 seconds between each fire ball.

I’ll tell you that it can get pretty bad and absurd.

Hive’s ender pearls don’t actually have a cooldown for some reason, but if they could apply the same cooldown to fireball, it would be a good way to nerf fireballs.

I don’t feel as though ender pearls need a nerf. They’re quite good at getting out of situations, and even if other people using them can be frustrating, the maps aren’t big enough to be a problem.

I didn’t say pearls needed a nerf, fireballs do imo.

Pearl are underpriced to be fair. But they’re also ridiculously slow.

However we aren’t here to discuss pearls.

I’m aware. I interpreted @AJtheOtter’s comment as something about pearls needing a nerf.
