Board Thread:Suggestions forum/@comment-34241117-20180422040712

I know Mevans is planning to take out all of the Vanilla Minecraft mobs, and add in other mobs like boars, here are some suggestions. If he wants to, he can use some of these, or not if he doesn't. This is the suggestions forum! '''Anything Mevans wan't or doesn't want, he can add in or not. '''

_________________________________________________________________________________

Vultures: Taken from the thread of "The Mound Men of Far Harad" (Great suggestion by the way, please Kudos it, it is simply AMAZING!) 'http://lotrminecraftmod.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:404068' 

The vultures will spawn in Morwaith/Moredain in the trees. They will fly around, and follow players sometimes. Vultures will usually fly around by themselves, but there is a 12% chance that they spawn in a group of 2-3. These birds will attack anything which is at 6 health (or three full hearts) or below.

Vultures have 12 health, (six full hearts) and do two full hearts of damage. Meaning, anything with three hearts will be killed in two hits. When attacked, these birds will fly out of reach, and away. '''*The vultures will attack each other if the other is at three hearts or below. '''Vultures will pick up any meat item on the ground, and fly away with it.

Drops: vultures will drop vulture feathers, which are used as normal feathers for arrows. Vultures will also drop any meat they are carrying, which is quite often.



Squirrels: (This quote is from the movie) "Whats this? An ove'sized squiwell?"

Birds and butterflies are great, but we also need something else which is basically everywhere: squirrels. Squirrels have six health, or three full hearts. They are passive mobs, and will run away upon being attacked, (if they survive). Once killed, they will drop one squirrel skin (which could perhaps be used to make some clothes for factions like Moredain?) and one NEW ITEM called an acorn or nut which restores 1/2 hunger bar. Squirrels will basically be in every single biome where there are trees, save biomes like the Dead Marshes, Mordor, and other things like that.

Woodpeckers: these are going to be another bird, which are small and fairly rare. They will live in large forests (like fangorn, Mirkwood ((the nice parts)) and the forests of Gondor). They will fly about, and sometimes land on a tree and start moving back and forth on it. The tree will slowly break, and when the log is broken, the woodpecker will fall off and fly away, looking for another tree to destroy.

Woodpeckers have four health, or two full hearts, and when killed, will drop 0-1 feather and 0-1 oak log.

Warthogs: I thought this would be a nice addition because one of the April Fools jokes was that Mevans was changing the mod into the Lion King mod. PUMBA!

You can tame a warthog by feeding it grass, and then you can ride it. Upon taming you get the title "Hakuna Matata!" A warthog will attack you if you hit it or any of the babies, just like a boar. You can heal a warthog by feeding it acorns (see squirrel above) or grass if the squirrel doesn't get implemented. Warthogs have 20-24 health (10-12 hearts) and go as fast as boars. Upon death, a warthog drops: 0-4 raw pork, and 0-2 warthog tusks, (used for the same things like horns) and 0-2 leather.

Warthogs will live in Far Harad, in the Moredain area, and in the Harad Cloud forest/Fertile Area, as well as big forests like Mirkwood, but not Fangorn.

Ostrich: A giant bird, which spawns in Far Harad and Moredain. Ostriches have twenty - twenty six health, (10-13 hearts) and run as fast as rhinos, making them very good mounts indeed. They will be able to jump up two blocks, but cannot be MADE to jump with the spacebar.

Ostriches will fight back if attacked, doing six damage (three hearts). Upon death, an ostrich will drop one ostrich feather, (very valuable with Far Harad and Moredain Traders, as well as oddment collectors) and 0-1 ostrich egg (rare drop), which can be sold for EXTREMELY high prices with the same traders, cooked in a furnace for an Ostrich Omelette (when eaten, restores 5 hunger bar 4.5 shanks) or thrown at an enemy doing 1.5 hearts of damage, making this a very effective weapon.

Since ostriches diets consist of insects as well as plants, in order to tame one you will need to feed it exploding termites! Then, once tamed, you can ride it without a saddle, and heal it with seeds.





Bison: this comes from my brother actually, who just joined the wiki! [http://lotrminecraftmod.wikia.com/wiki/Message_Wall:Riptide88888888 This is his homepage! Welcome him please!] He said that Rangers should ride bison. I am not sure if they should or not, (that would be hilarious in my opinion) but bison SHOULD be added. Bison will spawn in wild flat lands like The Angle and maybe Rohan. They would eat the grass layer of dirt blocks like sheep sometimes.

A bison would have 20-28 health (10-14 hearts) and would run as fast as horses. They require a saddle to be riddden, and could have a chest put on them like donkeys, since they ARE beasts of burden. I also think that they should have an armor slot, (made on the Dunedain crafting table maybe?) Overall, these would be one of the BEST rides ever, due to their wide variety of uses.

Anyways guys! There we are! Hope all of you enjoyed this perhaps, and kudos is always welcome! :D

Tell me what your favorite animal idea from the top is, or if you think something should be changed!
