Spiritual Projection

We have had many different ideas concerning the new airbending technique shown in TLOK. I'm hoping this thread can combine most of them and finalize the ability, if it is indeed going to be implemented at a later date.

Spiritual Projection:
When the user punches with Spiritual Projection bound to their slot, they will automatically move in to spectate mode. Their physical body should lay down (bed animation) where the ability was activated, and from there they may explore in their transparent (not invisible!) body for 60 seconds, with the ability to fly.
If the player activated this ability while in water, and a waterbender is actively using HealingWaters on the player's body, the projected player will have unlimited time in spiritual projection mode, as long as the waterbender is still holding the healing waters on them.

I'm not sure if all that was mentioned is possible, however I feel that this is the best way to go about implementing this ability.

I'm thinking of implementing this once we get 1.8 spectator mode

Oh really? I thought the transparent effect(partial invisibility) would have had a better effect as to looks and mechanics as to they could see through you as they would your normal spiritual form. I have not seen the new spectator mode though, does it have the same affect?
Reply if you agree/disagree!

Pretty much the same effect, and you can fly through walls and floors and such

its a good idea but instead of lying down they should be in a sitting mode like they are meditating it, from all I have seen they don't lay down when they do that move they start of sitting it would seem more realistic

masterkael · Aug 9, 2014

ya i like that.

SamuraiSnowman · Aug 9, 2014

I feel like this move has a lot of support, so it is gonna be a big deal if it doesn't get made.. I guess we'll wait and see if it gets added in the 1.8.0 update

That sounds amazing, definitely a new good air bending move

I don't know if you have noticed, but you CANNOT sit down in minecraft.. So, laying down is the next best thing at the moment.

I don't know if you have ever played minecraft but whenever you are riding a boat or in a mine cart I do believe you sit down. But that just might be me

Dmoney90221 · Aug 10, 2014

So we do spiritual projection in a boat or minecart? That's even better.

Hartford15 · Aug 10, 2014

No, it would be like the laying down, you don't actually have to lay down in the bed. You clearly have not read this correctly, when you activate the move the animation would be you sitting, it isn't you actually in a mine cart, it would be the same if it was the lying down animation. You don't have to be in a bed to activate it. It is just the animation. Otherwise how do you get in the water for the healing waters. But gg at trying to argue

Dmoney90221 · Aug 10, 2014

It's funny cause that was never even stated. Which is why I said that in the first place.

Hartford15 · Aug 10, 2014

So you think you need a bed to do this, read and you would see that you can be in water when you activate so clearly you don't need a bed

kjb345 · Aug 10, 2014

I really like this idea. I hope it gets implemented soon enough!

AlexTheCoder · Aug 10, 2014

While the bed animation is tricky, the sitting down one is e-z! Just spawn in an arrow and mount the player on it!
