Denied New Lava move: LavaPlume

[Simplicitee]

This move is gonna get a lot of hate. I can just see it now.
Name: LavaPlume
Element: Earth/Lava
How used: [Hold shift] > [L-Click]
Description: So this move when charging uses the black smoke particles to show when it is charged. When the user clicks when the move is charged they have to be looking at a player or the move will not work. When the user clicks at another player, at a certain configurable radius (default 2 - 2.5 blocks) around the targeted player, lava will shoot up and surround the player, and then slowly fall over them. The charge time could be 3 - 5 seconds as a default.

Thanks for reading! Post suggestions!

So Eruption?

No this move is much different from eruption. Eruption blasts you out, while this move engulfs you.

 

[paliate]

But the lava blocks stil fall on you with eruption.

 

[Simplicitee]

Ugh I think I need to make it and screenshot and show you. Mk I'll have it in a little bit.

Is there a way to escape?

Bad news lava kinda dosent work in 1.8 so all these lava moves might have a little trouble.

MC doesn't render FallingSand with a liquid ID, that's the problem...

Yeah I know, that's what I just said. Only moves that still work are lava throw and lava flow (lol they rhyme)

 

[Simplicitee]

and lavaslap. But this isn't falling liquid, it is raising lava, and then making flowing lava to engulf the player.

Go through the lava, or jump/fly over it before it is formed.

that would be another earth grab against water benders... I suggest you make a way to escape, perhaps right before the lava falls on you?

we don't need this, earthbending already have too many abilities i don't see why we should add something useless

How about the lava goes up trapping you while it does so, then to fall on you the outer walls go away to be like it is keeping one size.

I'm trying to give lava more moves. And over half of the earth moves are defensive, 3 utility, and some offense in there somewhere. Lava is the offensive part of earthbending and it is lacking in strength right now.

That sounds better

I somewhat like the move, but Lava has a few moves already, maybe we could focus on some metal bending moves. Another way to add move offensive abilities, without upsetting too many people (unlike what's happening with lava bending)

People need to stop complaining about two earth has too many moves. If instead we focus on making each lava move good, and usable in combination with some of the existing and more fundamental moves (Raise Earth, Shockwave, and the like) then a Lava bender can really focus on lavabending as a whole. This is how it all should be looked at. And with the lack of moves for lava, how about we come up with lots of ideas, then trim the fat if needed later, cause all this negativity is really stunting the growth of the element overall.

 

[SamuraiSnowman]

They can still make lava moves if they work like water moves.. Stuff that moves in a direct path and doesn't fall.

well, you can say the same about plant bending. what's the difference?

I'm with you here on earth, but what about some metal moves? Plus, other elements need more growth before we start on the details of earth IMO
