    I don't find Viking all that powerful personally, of course it has an element of power but if you're strategical enouhh you can beat it. Try using more mobility kits if viking is too much of a problem :wink:

    Even ask Viva: I was 6v1'd by ff and kill aura hackers. I beat them all. Sure, they only had iron chestplate and leggings, but they were all urgal. They all used pots. I watched. Tell me how Viking isn't op?

    Viking doesn't give you that much of an advantage. You're clearly exaggerating it's ability, it doesn't do THAT MUCH more than a sword. Sure, it is higher and more effective but it's nothing over the top.

    I've never found a really overpowered viking personally.

    Viking is really only powerful in the beginning of the game, once people start gaining armor you really start to lose the advantage. There's also the fact you can't block with the axe, nor can you enchant it with sharpness. If I see a viking in the beginning of the game I just tend to avoid them.

    That's a good point, but even at the start of the game it's not anything like a STR II bonus. It's an advantage of course but it's nothing insane.

    It's quite pointless now since block hitting is out of the game

    He meant block-hitting, which was majorly nerfed (or well the animation was) in the Minecraft 1.8 update.
    Blocking still works, but it's pretty useless in comparison to someone who can strafe.

    Blocking is still in te game, but you can't BLOCKHIT. Where you left and right click your sword and you still hit but take less damage

    But what i am saying is its still in existence , so technically it is an advantage , if it has been nerfed then there should possibly be a slight nerf applied to Viking , not sure what it would be though !

    You are actually able to enchant an axe with sharpness, I have managed to do so.

    I don't know about 1.8, but in 1.7 you can only do that with an anvil, and a sharpness book
