Supposedly air is going to be getting an update similar to this in the future, but I'm not hopeful anymore. There are somethings that just don't get added.
This is true, some things don't get added. In my opinion this would make air a worthy opponent for earth or even a fire bender in the avatar state. On my server, all the Builders say to the new TrialBuilders that 'Air is underpowered, an easy kill against other elements'. That is why I am downloading nearly every possible move for air to make air more powerful, but it needs an update.

When I air, all those "Pro earth" or "Master fire" are sitting ducks for me. Never have I thought "ooh Petty little air is just too easy for me" instead I find air better than fire, earth, and water. Air is by far the weakest element. I don't even main air and I find air to be stronger than my main, which is water mind you, because of its speed.

Now as I understand it, you want to make air a formidable element that is no longer weak and underpowered... But you're suggesting we take away its already OP combos and attacks?

Airbenders have always been the harder ones for me...

As a waterbender, air is the hardest. As another air or fire/earth it's average. When I say it's hardest for me as water, it's mainly because they don't stay in the water and hit and run off. Nothing wrong with that, it just makes killing air difficult.

The reason why other elements or easier, is because their attacks won't come from above. That's why I always go fire when I need to fight an airbender :p

Water > Water/Air/Chi
Earth > Earth/Fire/Air/Chi
Fire > Water/Earth/Fire/Air/Chi (LOL)
Air > Fire/Chi
Chi > idgaf

That's coming from your opinion, not everyone is like that. I believe you mean that, but I just feel like stating it.

As for me;

Water > Fire/Earth/Chi/Air
Air > Earth/Fire/Chi/Air
Earth > Air/Chi
Fire < Water/Chi/Air/Fire/Earth
Chi < Water/Chi/Air/Fire/Earth

From this you can obviously see what my main elements are. I cannot do fire, the apm for it is too high for me to match. Chi is just too nooby and slow, nothing I can do. Earth is alright if I feel like tanking and trolling.

PROBABLY SHOULD GET BACK ON TOPIC THOUGH, RIGHT?

He meant using dots.

And for the love of god, please stop double/triple posting.

Air isn't meant to be a damaging element if we go by the lore, it's speed and mobility is what balances it.

i haven't tipple posted since the beginning of this thread and besides, There are numerous other post like this that got denied, And i'm pretty sure that this one will be denied as well. But do you mean you don't want it so air doesn't do damage?

I don't think i've ever been this enraged about a suggestion, maybe it's because air is my main element.
I'd like to make a few comments if you don't mind.

In the show aang is still young, he still has much to learn about airbending, Who knows maybe they taught defense to the children / younger airbenders.
In the show (LOK when he's older) he breaks a chain with airbending,



And as said previously, Tenzin does throw some pretty hard hits.
I don't think its wise to make this change to airbending considering that it would interrupt the balance of the plugin, By default air only does 1 heart per hit if i'm not mistaken which isn't alot at all. I am trying to keep a open mind and sortof distance my personal feelings for this thread but are you kidding me?
You basically want to make air do no damage at all, There may not be walls where you are, then what? If you think air runs now just wait and see if this actually happens.

vs10.jpg - No damage is taken by air, his arms are being stretched out as they are on the floor, causing damage to him.
I'd also like to note that i believe Firelord Ozai is trying to do firebreath and aang is blocking it with airbending, he was not intending to hurt him.
AKA why he took his bending instead of killing Ozai.

Agreed. Airbending all do the element of freedom is by fare one of the most powerful element (in the show not the plugin). Personally I like to think that the monks were peaceful and have developed their life style as to prevent the power of air to be used in the wrong manner. Because of this many people think that airbenders are "lovely" and "cute" and even "kawai" when clearly Zaheer showed the TRUE nature and possibility of airbending. Also airbenders were shown to be able to fight many opponents in the same time something that the plugin doesn't really go into. Besides all this there isn't really a proper sub element for air. By proper I mean a complete different nature of the element ( in many cases in different forms such as lightning for fire or lava for earth Ps: astral projection all do useful is quite limited).
To solve this problem I think that in stead of a sub there should be a different tradition of the element something like Zaheer has presented to us as supposed to the "traditional" subs we have now.
