    I believe that this is a problem.
    Whilst playing ArcherPvP, it is always fun to use a special arrow (/arrow), and it is very fun to see the result of what the arrow does.

    However, I was playing a while ago (this has happened more than once) and I was fighting a player, and he decided to only shoot me with "Freezing Arrows" so I was locked in one place. Now, I know this is mainly the point but it makes the idea of PvP unfair, and un-fun the player being shot at with these arrows is
    defenceless, no matter what Armour or what they do, they are completely defenceless.

    Even health potions don't work, /spawning doesn't work, you are literally trapped wherever they choose to trap you.
    I know the cost of buying these arrows is high, which makes it less easy to perform something like this, yet it is still not good.

    I lost all my good stuff to this, and I could've easily won the fight if he didn't spam me with arrows (Freezing).

    Solution:
    I think it would be better if there was a cool down on how many special arrows you can shoot.
    For Example: You can shoot 3 arrows then you have to wait 10 - 15 seconds, then you can shoot another 3. This would allow fair play, even if the attacking player had 2 stacks of special arrows, there still would be a chance to at least escape, or ask for help.
    Please leave your feedback in the comments, or use the poll.


    The image provided shows the chat after the player spammed me with the arrows.
    (There was another whole chat page, just that's as far as I could scroll).

    Have a nice day :).

    What do you think about this, i'm sure in your time of playing ArcherPvP, someone has done a similar thing.
    Did it annoy you?

    Yes it was quite annoying. And I think a 3-5 second cool down should be implemented for at least the Freeze Arrows, per arrow.
    What they do is pretty much make someone afk, thus easy to kill.

    I think we can all agree that is a problem, but I think the only way Mineverse could solve this is to have a cooldown....... and we all know how cooldowns go for MV. :/

    No support. This won't happen many times as these arrows are expensive.

    But it did happen.
    "A stitch in time saves nine".
    We might as well fix this issue, and prevent further problems.
    Also, some players have 30k+ and with these arrows only costing $1 per arrow sometimes, anyone could easily get a stack.
    If each arrow costs $3, for an entire stack of arrows, it would only cost $192, and if the Speciality Arrow Spammer is fighting a max geared opponent, then the profit will be much more.

    I'm fine with every arrow, I just think freezing arrows need to be nerfed. Maybe make it so that you can turn your head around, just can't move around with your legs
