    title is self explanatory.

    Wouldn't it be fun to have a sword that does (x) damage to the target that it hits, and if there are other targets within (y) blocks, then those other targets would be given a (%x) damage which would decrease as distance grew? maybe you could only hit a certain amount of targets with the splash damage, so more like a chain lightning sword?

    can be spawned in zones 4-6, damage increases and number of targets increases, but rate of damage decrease does NOT change.

    20 uses on other players, but infinite uses on mobs? + if you use on a mob and hit a player or use on a player and hit a mob it still counts as one of the 20 uses.

    maybe give mining slowness one to prevent spamming?

    I believe reading the thread would answer that question. -_-

    This sounds great :3
    Although, I wonder if people will use a hack client to set to the amount of blocks as the AoE and smack the air as if they were smacking the players, I think there could be a detection that differs from this and the cheat. If it detects the sword "hit the player" directly. Then it'll be fine, however it did not hit the player(s), rather it hit the air and still hit the player(s) around, it would detect that as an issue.

    True. I was thinking it would have more of an "activates on hit" effect rather than splash potion effect. Also, the mining slowness could help prevent that, and these swords would probably do less damage than regular swords. That combined with the fact that being hit with the splash does a percentage of the actual damage (maybe around 40-50%) would make that hack kinda useless imo.

    This would be very op, but may be a good idea for event weapons.

    Well I mean, it has 20 uses (infinite against zombies), which is hardly enough to kill anybody in teamfights with their pasta/bean scroll/macro/hotkey/whatever the hell you use.
    If the damage does not change, then it might be useless against enemies with armor. 60%-80% damage reduction will completely screw over the damage.
    However it's damn hell amazing against hoards of zombies. :3

    As pikmin said, that'd be the main use.

    I think it'll all depends on how powerful the sword damage is overall. Is this a "fun" item or something to seriously use in close combat.

    it would have the damage of a wood sword to other players, essentially, but be able to two shot zombies. The main reason of this sword is its ability to clear swarms of zombies which spawn during team fights; and it would be pretty much useless against anyone who had more than leather armor. And it only has twenty uses against people, so if the person you're slashing isn't being a retard and not eating, you'll probably break the sword before you can kill the person.

    Well that sounds like a fairly good idea, i could see this being a helpful item in combat. The only downside is that it takes away from the H1Z1/DAYZ aspect of the game.

    The sword has 20 durability. I hardly believe one with FF is going to be a able to kill someone like that.
