Bedrock What's the Purpose of Glass in Eggwars?

[ProfessorRaptor]

And you simply build with glass in the late game since you can’t insta mine it. And you can clay.

I use glass similarly to this for early-game egg defense and late game on tea to get back up to main-level mid. A layer around the obsidian slows people down just enough to prevent them from blocking themselves in most times. Or it forces them to use tnt (which will then definitely alert the whole base as to their presence). Tea late game most dangerous people have 25+ pickaxes so you need glass to get back up without getting spleefed.

The issue with bridging with glass, tho, Fesa, is that it has a much lower blast resistance than clay. one tnt down and it's like a slightly delayed mega-spleef. It's hard to keep in mind just how far that blast will destroy so I end up with a lot of kills that way. >:)

I never thought of chests, thats a great idea (but they can be insta broken with an axe)

Chests have a gap tho so you can ignore them to break an egg or the obby around it.

I never thought of using chests as a defence block lol

Glass always break at same speed, no matter of picaxe level.
so is better to use glass agains max diamond picaxe.
same with hay bale but hay bale is even slower and still not afected by picaxes

True, but (at least 2-3 years ago) people rarely use axes due to having a lower DPS than swords.

Very good point!! Forgot about this. You'll want to place your chests around an inner shell.

But yeah, most people wouldn't think of chests but they're an amazing defence, and are usually affordable in larger quantities than obsidian. So you can place like, two layers of obsidian around an egg, and then go crazy with chests. Another bonus is you can hide gear in one of them, since most people wouldn't waste their time checking every single chest when they clearly haven't been placed with storage in mind. It basically lets you hide your backup gear in plain sight, in exactly the place you're likely to need it.

The only problem with this is, that doing it that way will make it actually easier to break the egg. You have less layers of obby to break and chests are not blast resistance so... you just spam tnt everywhere half of the defence is gone and you can mine in peace because anyone who thinks coming is a good idea will either blow up or be blown away.
So, one layer of chest might be the only good chest defence because they’ll have to be mined if you enough obby under it.

Sometimes when the last player is hidden/stuck or weak, I build houses/fortresses for fun. In fact, my profile picture is a fortress kind of thing I made in eggwars last week :)

glass for both defense and fortresses. glass defense looks nice but it really doesn't matter because no one uses tnt

 

[ProfessorRaptor]

no one uses tnt

AHAHAHAHAHAHA no. Maybe not on Bedrock, but on Java absolutely people use TnT.

ik, im saying people dont use it on bedrock. tnt is pretty pointless, when i used it, it didnt do much

Woahhhh

If you can do it well, you can use glass as a wall and get people to fall

 

[Genericness]

I never saw anyone use tnt to break a egg defence but use an entire stack of tnt just to fly someone of the map? Countless.

Also glass is super useful, what else should i use for my windows for my tower?
Yesus.

Be realistic. Nearly nobody uses tnt since it doesnt do that much and it's a burden. You are better off getting an iron pick since chest aren't a whole block, meaning you can break the egg through the chests anyway

 

[Gemmmmie]

Glass is a bit slower to break than clay blocks as well as it making a noise. Therefore, it gives the enemy team a bit of advantage around the egg or for bridge fights.

 

[Katsia Stray]

I dont know anything about clay or axes or anything since I'm a brp, I tester the chest thing and it does work if you use like 3 layers minimum

 

[vasui]

I'm using glass t onot get exploaded by tnt...

 

[Kat9Ramp8ge]

Who plays with sounds on max

Yeah what’s sounds.

 

[Katsia Stray]

Yeah what’s sounds.

Maybe not max but playing with enough sound to hear footsteps or attacking is definitely a great idea
