As the upcoming update is meant to be focused on Far Harad, I journeyed south to see what could be improved.

Firstly, the Far Harad Jungle is very similar to the vanilla jungle biome; I think that bamboo growing on the floor would improve it. Similar to sugar cane, bamboo would grow and could be harvested to give the player 'bamboo crop' which could then be farmed. This crop could be crafted to make 2 'bamboo canes' which could be used to make blowguns and panels of bamboo. The treehouses of the jungle far haradrim could be made of this bamboo panelling with thatch roofs. Bamboo farms could be found below treehouse villages.

Another thing I noticed on my southward voyage was the uselessness (is that a word?) of scorpions. This could be fixed if they sometimes dropped 'stingers' which could be used in place of flint in the recipe for arrows to make poison darts. Take a guess what these could be used for...

Thirdly, I think that the barrows in the Barrow-downs should have stone megaliths on. (Think Stonehenge)

Finally, swans should spawn in Swanfleet as they are what give it its name.

What do you think? Any ideas on improvements?
