When a new player encounters a special mob for the first time, I suggest that a message plays for them when they kill it or get close enough for it. Currently, players see a new mob and wonder "What the hell is that?" With this suggestion, when a player kills or gets near enough to the Enraged Mob (I'd say 10 or 5 blocks), a message appears in chat: Looks like you have (found/killed) an Enraged Zombie. Enraged Zombies are unique mobs with more damage, health, and speed than normal Zombies. Learn more here: wiki.emc.gs/Enraged_Zombie This would of course be different for each mob. Opinions? Also, this would only happen with the first mob of it's kind they encounter.
Doesn't it say in the tutorial about momentus, marlix and enraged mobs? Because i remember seeing that, and e z mlg 360 noscoping 420 blazing an enraged zombie the first time i went into the waste. I got a drag frag =3 So since it's in the tutorial imo i don't think it's worth putting a message for it.
I'm a little against the suggestion. It's not a bad one mind you, but it would take the surprise away. That moment of "what the HECK is that?" can be fun too Edit: PS: You're right about the tutorial of course, but we also have an extensive wiki
Some newer players, I noticed, do not consult the wiki at all (or just rarely). They barely use the /help command. You can lead a new player to the wiki, but you can't make him drink it. (err, read it)
Watch me let me prepare this (yes, I am in a very funny mood) Edit: come to think of it... I don't think it would go well to organize a wiki reading event for new players only... hmm...
