[Feature]: golden hearts

[kaboom24]

What?

I think that it should be possible to craft golden hearts because when you become a vampire golden apples are no longer a viable food source in PvP and since the effects they provide are VITAL for combat that is a HUGE nerf. I propose a solution golden hearts would function and be crafted the exact same way as golden apples but with a human heart instead of an apple. Another way to balance vampires on the PvP side would be to add blood saturation that functions just like normal saturation but is obtained through foods that provide blood (ex: golden hearts) I think this would allow vampires to be a much more viable option for PvP

Vampires still get the effects of golden apples.

[kaboom24]

Yes but it doesn't fill their blood bar

[kaboom24]

Which is why not many vampires will be carrying them around which is a nerf in pvp scenarios

[KuruOverseer]

People use golden apples for the effects, not for the hunger. Plus, Vampires are already pretty balanced as far as pvp goes. If you want to go over the many MANY flaws of hunter we can, but I don't see a point.

Yes but the gapples don't provide saturation once you become a vampire, people ABSOLUTELY use gapples for the saturation. If you have ever done PvP before you know how vital it is to be able to use golden apples for their high saturation and since it doesn't make sense for apples to saturate an entity that is only supposed to feed on things like blood and human hearts I am suggesting the golden heart, I'm no coder but my guess would be that the only challenge of implementing this would be adding saturation for vampires, when it comes to the effects of the golden heart you just copy and paste the golden apple code with a couple small edits to make it work for vampires.
