All Networks Bedrock Skywars smithing table

[stripytrain2]

From personal experience I believe that the smithing table should be either an unbreakable block or something that spawns at every base. Too many games someone will run to middle break the table and die in the void making it unusable for everyone. The fun of the smithing table is that it makes fights interesting and last longer making the games more fun. But when someone grabs it and hoards it not letting other teams or even their teammates use the table it makes the game significantly less fun and creates a much more annoying/toxic environment.

After reading comments and thinking about it I do realize that I wasn't thinking straight when I discussed putting a smithing table on every island.

**YES IS FOR SMITHING TABLE BEING UNBREAKABLE AND NO IS FOR CHANGING NOTHING**

I feel like having a smithing table on every island might be too overpowered, as smithing templates and netherite ingots can be found in many chests.
Fortunately, it is possible to craft one; every once in a while I’ve found myself crafting a smithing table which requires iron, sometimes from an iron block, other times from iron ore. The ore does take a little while to smelt though, especially considering how fast-paced rounds of SkyWars can be, so crafting one isn’t always the most convenient

There is also the issue of someone being the only person who can use the smithing table like you said. While the center island seems to be meant as a place that gives players an advantage, breaking the smithing table does seem like too much.
Also, while I feel like almost every block in SkyWars should be breakable for consistency, an exception could definitely be made for the smithing table that naturally exists in the center

Overall I’m going with
( for unbreakable smithing table at center, for smithing tables on every island)

You make a great point about it being too overpowered to have one at every island. But I am glad to see that you agree that it can be an issue when people hoard the table as it does negate the whole advantage of middle at times. Yesterday I was on a map with no iron on it at all and someone took the table and was refusing to let anyone using it and was trying to get people to give them ingots and templates for their own benefit.

That's true about every island. A lot of people would be very overpowered. Maybe add iron blocks to every map, but I don't know how aesthetically that would look on some maps. But what do you think about the anvil? Some maps only have a couple of anvils. Like the sandstone map, I'm pretty sure it only has one anvil. I do agree with having all of the blocks unbreakable, though. So, I don't know how that could all play out.

I agree. It's so frustrating to deal with people who destroy interactable upgrade blocks at middle (smithing table, enchanting table, and anvil), especially on maps where there are few of them or impossible to craft them (only smart players can craft another smithing table on maps that don't have iron).
The best way to fix this issue is to block naturally placed interactable upgrade blocks from being destroyed, only player placed ones are the exception to it

I agree to the they should be indestructible as it will add equalness to the game but not at every island because every would have full netherite and the games would take years.

i think making them indestructable messes with the game design and flow too much, a smithing table is relatively easy to craft, so it would be more reasonable to add iron ores/blocks to the maps or iron ingots to the loot pool

Imo, skywars would be less fun if everyone had equal or similar gear all the time because then what's the use of having better loot at mid if everyone is going to have it. I would prefer having better gear and making sure i am more equipped than my enemies and if that means breaking smithing tables so that i have better gear, i will do it.

From my understanding having control of middle should be an advantage and thus you shouldn't be able to break or craft the smithing table to have it on your own. Personally I think that it should be indestructible because that gives you a reason to go to mid.

But the point of having better gear in mid is specifically so that being in mid and having control of it is an advantage but taking the smithing table or being able to craft other tables makes the the point of mid completely irrelevant.
