Tips for Minecraft Combat

By Josh

Hi! I am here writing this blog post about Minecraft Combat (hence the title) and I am just trying to use them well. I hope these tips help up your combat. There is one thing that you need to do to help, PRACTICE! These tips will only help you a little if you don't try them out! Here they are.

SWORD COMBAT

PVP

• Try to sneak up on people, there are plenty of ways, but you just need to choose one
• Try to get free hits in, as they will set your opponent lower then you, and you will have a higher chance of winning. Jumping works miracles at doing this.
• In a rough map, platforming is key. You don't want to take fall damage where your opponent did!

MONSTER HUNTING

• Yet again, stealth works well.
• Try to run circles around monsters (besides Endermen or Creepers) and hit them while they can't hit you
• Don't get stuck in water (except if you're fighting Endermen, in that case you DO want to be in water) while they're out of it. this creates problems where there weren't any.
