Jay SG – What Is The BEST Weapon In Minecraft?

Minecraft a game that has developed and changed over the years once upon a time fishing rods were used in battle like what even is that but now in 1.17 version of minecraft what is the best weapon i’m going to split it up into two categories short-range weapons and long-range weapons all around

1.17 version of minecraft now the explaining is done let’s get into what is the best weapon in minecraft actually before i start if you could subscribe it would mean the world thanks and enjoy the video axes versus swords this rivalry is similar to dream vs techno

Friends but enemies at the same time so which is better well let’s look at swords first over the years the sword has dominated this was because it was faster than the axe which it still is so this has a higher dps combined with the fishing rods

And high click through speed you got 1.8 pvp but it all changed in 1.9 they changed how much damage an axe can do a wooden axe can deal the same amount of damage as a diamond sword okay minecraft i am done what even is that i know you wanted to make pvp more

Realistic but that just makes no sense so let’s look at the positives of the sword compared to the axe it has a higher dps which means higher attack speed better durability and finally a lot better enchantments for pvp as the axe is limited compared to the sword key enchantments

Such as fire aspect sweep and edge and knockback can play a part in winning a 1v1 well not sweeping edge but that is good for killing a load of zombies so they are the positives what are the negatives well attack damage is very poor as i said a

Diamond sword deals the same amount of damage as a wooden axe which doesn’t seem right but it’s actually true the sword also doesn’t disable shields and in recent pvp blocking with a shield is very important and to disable that you need an axe not a sword so yes the sword is good but

Is it better than the axe well let’s look at the positives of the axe the axe deals 10 attack damage when its strike is a critical hit which is five hearts one more than a sword this is important as they should would have to take strike

Three times to kill a player as an act would only have to strike twice oh and just to say this is without enchantments the axe has a 25 chance of disabling an opponent shield as i said shields are very important as they can block strikes

And for an axe to have a chance of disabling a shield for five seconds this could make you win so many fights as you’ll be able to hit the person without them hitting you finally the axe can be used for more things other than pvp such as chopping down trees so in

Survival maybe the axe is a better option as it saves a slot in your hotbar and is still good if not better than the sword so what are the negatives to the axe well the axe is very slow at recharging which makes it a lot slower to get critical hits

That axe is limited when it comes to enchantments as you can add fire aspect or knockback to an axe which can be very useful in pvp but i’ll shut up about which one is better and play with a clip of when both have been very effective in pvp

Really yes they can both be used in certain situations such as swords up close and i mean up close is better than an axe as it’s hard to block a shield when you’re very close to each other and you can get more critical hits off a lot

Faster probably leading you to the dub but in a planned 1v1 situation i’d say an axe is better because blocking with the shield and picking when you want to attack is so much easier and better for you to land those critical hits and in 1.16 and 1.17 pvp

Critical hits are pretty much everything so which one is better i think it’s a near the right ax with sharp 5 efficiency 5 on breaking 3 and mending as they can deal 18 hp points which is 9 hearts even though it would still be a two-tap

In a 1v1 situation i think an axe is way better than the sword let’s just look at how quickly it takes for an axe to kill someone two hits and you are dead it’s as simple as that obviously this is without armor with armor it would take a lot more

But then critical hits as i said would deal more damage and with the axe and all that armor it would take a lot harder for the sword to kill you off than the axe but the truth of it is the best combination is the axe and the sword

So you’re ready for any situation up close or a 1v1 situation everything you got it covered bow versus crossbow vs trident which is the best first things first i can say that the tridents aren’t good enough in pvp they are amazing for exploring the minecraft world which is kind of my favorite item

But it is just not as good as the crossbow oppo in pvp and this is for long range the trident can be used for short range as well but it’s just not good enough for swords or axes so i’m gonna cross tridents out all together so that leaves the crossbow versus the

Bow so we first need to look at the crossbow the crossbow is very good in 1.16 because of a few things but before i tell you the positives i need to tell you which enchantment i think is best because there are two enchantments that make the crossbow completely different

Multishot or psn which is better i think that pearson is better because pearson can go through entities so if you had psn5 you can shoot through five zombies which makes the crossbow more powerful to mobs but that isn’t it pearson will do more damage to a player that is holding a shield

Which as i said in 1.16 this is very useful as pretty much all 1v1s will have shields and the crossbow can break through it and deal some decent damage which in the fight could win you more 1v1s but what is multi-shot well as it’s in the title multi-shot it spreads

One arrow shot into three so that you have a better chance of hitting your target but it only deals the same amount of damage as one arrow so it doesn’t deal more damage or anything like that so i think it’s not as good as psn the

Final thing i need to explain about the crossbow is the way it is used what i mean by this is that the crossbow can be loaded first then use after so you can load the arrow then switch to your axe fight the bit and then switch back to

Your crossbow and still shoot the arrow which can help catch people off guard as the motion is so quick but the negative is how long it takes to pull the arrow back it is very slow which could lead you to getting hit and taking more damage but this isn’t it

As the enchantments are still a negative as you can’t add flame to it and flame on a bow is very useful because it can slowly drain away someone’s health and slow them down in the fight now let’s get into the bow the bow is og

It’s been in the game for a very long time and people have got used to it a lot so more people would be entitled to use the bow because they have used it so much so as people have used it a lot they know everything to do with a bow

So what are the positives of the bow as there is quite a lot the bow has some amazing enchantments such as power flame infinity and punch which i’m sure you know what they all do so you know how useful and how powerful the enchantments are so what are the negatives the bow

Can’t break through the shield this is the big one as to stop a bow is all you have to do is just block with your shield very easy as a shot normally happens from a long distance so it gives you enough time to block with your shield

Also to shoot an arrow from a bow you have to pull the bow back and this gives it the most damage you could have which will give you a massive tell when you are going to fire a shot so i’ve weighed up the positives and negatives now i’m gonna give you my

Opinion on which is better i think the crossbow is better because it could deal damage through the shield and you know the shield is op so anything that can damage you through that is going to be at the top but to make both as powerful as possible

You can add something to the arrows which will make them even more op so with the bow you can have harmon 2 arrows which deals so much more damage it’s unreal with a normal arrow you can deal 5 hearts of damage but with a harmon arrow you can deal 11 hearts of damage

This is with no armor so it’s a one shot and this is without enchantments on the bow as well it’s just insane numbers also with the crossbow you can add fireworks yes fireworks this will increase the damage with a normal crossbow shot dealing an average of five hearts but with a

Firework with one star you can deal eight hearts of damage which is a two shot and this is with no enchantments just look at this clip He’s placing dd back up back up Let’s go let’s go oh my gosh so with everything i have said i think the crossbow is the best long-range weapon and the axe is the best short-range weapon everyone has their own opinion and their own personal preference but with all the stats i’ve seen i believe i am correct

But feel free to correct me in the comments subscribe for the rubber ducky and watch this video on screen as i think you might enjoy it thanks for watching
