ANVILS! (Minecraft 12w41a/b)


This weeks weekly chunk brings EXCITING new features to the minecraft 1.4 Pretty Scary Update! New in this feature is the Anvil, the anvil like its name would suggest is used for the repair of items like armour and pickaxes in minecraft. In addition to the repair features of the anvil, you are also about to "name" your items, if you wanted to you could rename your sword "Hrunting" (Beowulf  reference!) and it also allows for the combination of the different enchantments that are on two items. Of course to make anvil you'll need alot of iron, 55 ingots. And the anvil has a damage value, it appears to be a random feature at  the moment and has three different stages of decay. In order to use the anvil you need ALOT of experience. The anvil also has some more classic effects, it drops much like other blocks in the game, sand and gravel, but if it hits a player or mob it causes damage! This gives for a kind of ACME effect :D. Besides the anvil there aren't that many new features in this snapshot, nearing the release date (October 24th) much of the time is spent of bug fixing and getting ready for the final release.
