Master Sword

[Ag | Alex]

I have a quick question. With Demon's Breeze getting recently added, the master sword is back. I want you to tell me if it is legal or not, because we are in a clan battle right now and they are trying to dq us for it. I thought that it was allowed as long as you did it legit.

Its an item that can give an advantage early in the game...
I'm unsure as when the master sword was still there I asked Sr.Staff, Moderators and they all told me it wasn't against the rules.

If they re-added the map, don't you think they would have fixed and "errors" including illegal items? It's legal.

Whether it is or not I'm not particularly sure...
...however, banning specific items on specific maps is really silly. It's not our job to stop people from using it - it's those who change maps to fit MCSG who are meant to fix these problems.

If it isn't allowed, then I wish the staff good luck at telling the entirety of the in game community who doesn't read the forums that this is the case and having them all follow it, it's hard enough with block glitching. I don't even have to look at the rules to know that there isn't a written rule against it. It'd be far easier to just go into the map, find the dispenser or whatever it's in, and remove it...that'd take less time than a couple occasions someone complains about someone having it to the staff.


For clan battles organized by the staff? Sure, I can understand it a little I guess...but honestly? If I got the "Master Sword" in demons breeze by killing it's user in a regular game, I should have the right to use it. More than 90% of the playerbase wouldn't know any better. Simply making a rule that "no map specific items are allowed to be used" would be very hard for the majority of players to understand. How are they supposed to know what is and what isn't a map specific item? If I were new to the servers and got the master sword for killing someone on demons breeze, I wouldn't have a second thought about using it.


If it's not allowed, it should either be removed or it should become allowed. There is no way to know what method the person obtained it by. Even if it was only possible to get through block glitching or something of the sort...who's to say the current owner didn't kill someone for it and didn't know better?


This is all assuming it's disallowed in regular play. Disregard otherwise. In any case, I'd hope it's allowed because of the reasons stated above.

So Demon's is back on Us Servers? Are Moonlight and Freeze coming back, too?

Not sure about moonlight, but if you want to play freeze it is still on CA.

I am well aware of this, Ag. That is the reason why I switched to CA, to play Demon's, Freeze, and Moonlight.

From my understanding, as long as you dont block glitch it, it is fine. Since it only has Smite, and there are no mobs, its pretty much a normal iron sword.

(Again, just from my understanding :/)

the problem is that it's a free iron sword in the map that you can find without crafting. whoever gets it has an advantage since whoever doesn't have an iron sword can only craft one, not find one

If the mapmakers were silly enough to put it on the map, then the players should be allowed to use it.

ESPECIALLY if it wasn't removed during a supposed re-vamp.

There was also a diamond sword on Breeze Island - I never heard of anyone getting kicked for using/obtaining it, even moderators got it.

doesn't mean that it wasn't a problem. people still had issues with it.

If you think about it, iron swords are pretty common nowadays. Although it has a slight advantage, you do have to sacrifice (i think 6 or 5) items to obtain the iron sword. Yes, you don't have to craft it, but you dont get it for free either. Plus, if you get the sword very early in the game, thats probably of of the only things you have, since you've already sacrificed 5-6 items. Whilst others have ~full iron stone sword.
