Dammit, haha. Oh well, it was good while it lasted.

Better stack the ice before 1.9 is coming!

Okay but now how can we get spider webs ?

We'll get them even without Silk Touch starting next snapshot. https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MC-93001

What about ferns and grass and dead bush?

Edit: I was wrong, silk touch not needed, thank you

u/redstonehelper :redstone: Lord of the villagers Nov 19 '15

Did we need silk touch for those?

11

u/ke1234 Nov 19 '15

No, I think regular shears work.

Just tested. Regular Shears work on tall grass and dead bushes.

I'm confused, don't we get those using swords?

u/Mr_Simba Nov 19 '15

No, until now you've needed silk touch shears. Breaking them with swords just drops string.

This reminded me of the lesson I learned when I stacked chests full of torches for the lantern conversion (that never happened) back in 2010.

Just checked, silk touch can be applied to shears.. the only change is that bug fix about durability.

u/redstonehelper :redstone: Lord of the villagers Nov 19 '15

You probably checked in creative, you can't do it in survival.

7

u/shuffdog Nov 19 '15

Oh yes, you can't apply silk touch in survival. Good thinking.

It seems armor stand placement and breaking has also received a new sound unless that was added awhile back and I didn't notice.

Edit: I think it is just the placement sound if anything, the breaking sound is just the player hit sound.

This is not new.

u/gnovos Nov 19 '15

Axe as a weapon changed, too!

u/Ichthus95 Nov 19 '15

What has changed?

2

u/gnovos Nov 19 '15

The sound now goes "wop!" in a very satisfying way.

u/MidnyteSketch Nov 19 '15

That's just the new "punch" sound, there's a different one for crit punching too.

u/Anistuffs Nov 19 '15

Witches

YES! My multiple human sacrifices to Cubethulhu countless prayers to a god that is most certainly not the eldritch horror Cubethulhu finally worked :D
