So there is this thing I noticed with the new ai which is if hey are outnumbered they hold their shield up, which is good. But... that makes factions like mordor and the misty mountains really powerful since the other side is ALWAYS holding their shield up, which means they won't kill the orcs they will just die. Also sometimes when the ai is holding their shield up they teleport through enemy units to behind them

So i thought it would be cool if maybe the edhelvir crystals and the glow crystal, and gulduril maybe had their own sort of geode that spawned not sure what the blocks around it would be but I think it would be a cool idea

This is mushroom blocks surrounded by ender chests in the lonelands fairly close to rivendell

This is fairly self-explanatory but does orc bane count as the 3 scroll limit for weapons?

So on the lotr minecraft facebook page their was a question that was asked that was "should npcs have the same attack speed as the player or should they have slightly lower.

That got me thinking what if we had it so that so that certain npcs had higher attack speed than others... of course weapons change attack speed but I mean just an overall buff like +10% or something like that.

Then I thought that we should have 3 tiers of buffs. There would be elite, there would be average, and there would be weak.

Elite: ( +10% attack speed )this would include stuff like elves, dwarves, knights of the silver swan, Golden easterling, maybe the dunedain. Also stuff like Isengard Berserkers. This will show how some soldiers are better skilled with weapons then others

Weak: ( -10% attack speed )This would include stuff like orcs, possiby corsairs of Umbar, civlians for all factions. also maybe trolls, The reason I say trolls is that when I think of trolls I think of big hulking brutes and when they hit you you go flying. As it is in the mod.

Average: ( + 0% attack speed )This would include basically everything I didn't say so stuff like regular Gondorians, and also stuff like Black Uruks, and other uruks types. The reason I say black uruks is that

#1 this would be a skill up from regular orcs which would mean that they are already better.

#2 This is to show that stuff like Elves and dwarves are more skilled than even the best orc. And I think that this would be an easy way to show they are better with out dramatically changing any stats

Possible setback: I am not a coder and don't know anything about coding so this may be more difficult.

If you guys have any suggestions to where some units should go please tell me and I might update it depending what everyone says

Thanks for reading this essay of a suggestion !!!

So as we all know uruk-hai and black uruks are VERY powerful, and I think they are too powerful. Tolkiens gateway states "They were faster than normal Orcs and could travel during the day without being weakened. They were not only faster but smarter, stronger and larger, though most were still shorter than Men."

Usually shorter means not as strong, at least when it comes to orcs. (sry dwarves I didn't mean to insult you) Uruk-hai in the mod right now are usually more powerful then Elves, and that is not right. Elves should be the best Soldiers in middle earth not some orcs that are shorter on average to humans.

I just think that Uruks are a little too strong, Even if we don't change how strong the Uruk-hai are maybe make Snaga spawn more often compared to them, or something like that because walking into nan curunir is a death trap, and even rohan at night is probably not good Idea.
