Hey guys, not sure if this is due to the update or a glitch or what, but I've noticed a huge difference in the durability of diamond picks when using super breaker. Before I could use super breaker multiple times on a pick that had unbreaking-- now with just 30 seconds of super breaker a diamond pick with unbreaking III almost completely destroys it. Wanted to bring it up in case it was something that needed attention! If this is on purpose... well, it sucks! haha.

Super Breaker uses three times the amount of durability as normal mining, to account for the triple drops it provides. It is a default McMMO setting.

I get it, that makes sense and everything. Just wondering if that was a new thing or if I'm basically going crazy because I don't remember the picks getting eaten up so bad. If that was the default setting before it wasn't affecting me previously haha

Edit: further question-- is the triple durability damage only applicable to the pick when super breaker is being used on an ore block, or any block then? I mostly use it to carve out stone and you've seen our huge cavern so you know what I mean

It applies to any block like stone or ores.

Yeah I know it's happening on basic stone, I was basically asking if that's meant to be happening. I don't like the change at all because I was in the process of carving out a gigantic cavern basically haha

I noticed the change too, you're not crazy. I really don't like it either. I had 32 durability left on an Unbreaking 3 Silk Touch pickaxe, broke maybe ten blocks, and it was completely gone.

From time to time mcMMO developers balance their features.
