@ChuckwagonJrCrew HES TALKING ABOUT US :O
But basically my suggestion is to do what E said, just go underground immediately. Loot that chest first. Then make a mini wall to protect yourself from arrows.
Though I think a grace period of about 5 seconds would be nice, if that is possible.
I am guilty of doing this, but it's part of the gameplay. Almost all the times I do it it's because so is the other person, then everyone ends up doing it. So I believe the only decent fix would be a quick grace.
Taking out the bow kits wouldn't be a good idea (imo). Being able to have a long range weapon is essential for me, and I'm really bad with snowballs/eggs so yeah. Maybe getting rid of the hunter+ enchanted bow and just have a regular bow and more arrows?
Idk just a few ideas.
