    Killing the sheriff is the counterplay :l
    Didn't ignore anything. You're saying handcuffs are too overpowered and provided a very short solution that I have no idea how will work.

    When a sheriff handcuffs a player, the sheriff is what? 2-3 blocks away from the player? So the player getting handcuffed (imagine a full diamond will weapons ready) is slowed, but can point blank shoot a sheriff in the face... :v I agree that handcuffs are somewhat overpowered (even though they do have to get rather close to even use them), I don't feel this is the best solution.

    Do I have a solution myself? No. Else it would be implemented; however, I'm not saying nothing needs to be done.

    Hmm, good point.
    I came up with a way to fix the whole Sheriff thing. (If it is actually possible to code this).

    • A Sheriff handcuffs a player
      • Said player is given Slowness IV for 00:03 (continuously until Sheriff lets go).
      • Sheriff is given 'Adrenaline Surge' (not actually a thing, just some fancy term) which reduces ALL incoming damage by 25% (Resistance I) for 00:03 (continuously until Sheriff lets go)
      • Sheriff is given a slight knockback resistance during the very small duration
    I dunno, does this work? Now how would the reworked guns affect this later on if this were to happen?

    There are many ways to balance the handcuffs.
    Here is my idea.
    If a Sheriff tries to handcuff a player with a gun in his hotbar he will disarm the player (player drops the gun), otherwise he will be handcuffed and also add a cooldown to the handcuffs like 3 seconds so the sheriff can't spam his handcuffs anymore.

    It's easy to code and balanced.
