Experience for mining plugin?

[Jambe Profile]

Hi. I used to play on a server that had a plugin that gave you a set amount of experience for breaking certain blocks, and that struck me as something that should've been included in vanilla MC anyway (especially because the absurd experience requirements for the best affixes necessitate either absurd amounts of roaming or silly mechanics like spawner-farming).

There are a couple active plugins that allow for this, and they both allow people to set the amount of experience gained from certain blocks.

Any chance of something like this on the server? It really annoys me that it takes thousands of kills to get a chance at a decent enchantment.

It's really more a problem with the silly enchanting system, but I see what you're saying. Don't know that I am in favor of something that gives you xp just for mining though. Then again, the game is called Minecraft, not XPFarmForDays.

Good news! This is getting added in the 1.3 update (unless it gets removed or it gets disabled on the server) http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Versi ... _Snapshots

Various actions will now reward the player with Experience Orbs, such as mining ores (except Gold Ore and Iron Ore), using furnaces, and getting achievements
