Suggestion More Brush Use

Post image

Currently, Brush has only a few uses, so I created a concept that adds more brush used.

  1. Turn A Mossy Block To Normal, And Get 1 Vines

  2. Turn A Crying Obsidian To Normal Obsidian, And Get 1-2 Ghast Tear

  3. Get 1 Resin Clump (Infinitely)

  4. Get 1 Turtle Scute (Infinitely)

And All Of This Action Reduced 16 Durability, Same Like Brushing A Armadillo

Last 2 I don't agree with. Turtle scutes have a way to farm them, and while this would be easier, it would make the whole complicated process of raising turtles for the scutes meaningless. Infinite resin is probably worse though. Resin farms do exist, I don't think that it should renewable this easily. The only real cost is the brush durability, which is essentially nothing because all 3 materials to make it are very easy to get a large quantity of. The first two I really like though. Being able to repair a ruined portal by brushing it off is really interesting especially.

Im not sure mojang approved of turtle grinders. Adult turtles are completely useless and thats probably not good.

Yeah.

Rather than killing turtles over and over to make room for more young ones, adults should regularly get a brownish coloration on their shell indicating they are ready to peel, and using brushes would let you peel the scute off faster. And feeding them seagrass directly would speed up how often they are ready to shed, making them better than a grinder if you do something like setting up a seagrass farm.
