Official Bending Server
IP - minecraftTLA.us.to

If that server is full (and it usually is), feel free to check out any of the other "official" servers.
Dev build
Development builds of this project can be acquired at the provided continuous integration server. These builds have not been approved by the BukkitDev staff. Use them at your own risk. This link has been removed because Bukkit doesn't like Github as a CI server.
Minecraft: The Last Airbender is a Minecraft plugin for a Bukkit server. It is designed for Survival Multiplayer, and allows players to choose an element to bend as the benders do in the world of Avatar (the stage of Avatar: The Last Airbender and its sequel The Legend of Korra).
Some quick notes: I will warn you that you will not be able to do everything they do in the show. There are limitations both in Minecraft and in Bukkit that prevent such extravagance. In the details of each discipline you can see exactly what you can do. As such, the description of the bending disciplines is a little altered to reflect their role in the world of Minecraft: The Last Airbender.
Features
- Play as a bender and choose which type you would like to be.
- Battle other users and see who is the best of the best.
- Compatible with WorldGuard, Factions, PreciousStones, GriefPrevention, and CreeperHeal. (Many more plugins will be added to this list)
- Nothing is required client-side
- Permissions support!
Bending
Users may bend water, earth, fire, air, or can go with being a chiblocker.. You may pick which type of bender you would like to be with the command: /bending choose [water/air/earth/fire/chi]. You may only choose one, with the exception of the Avatar, and you may never change it so be careful in your decision.
Waterbending
- Specializes in maneuverability in and on the water.
- Oceans are perfect for water benders.
- Techniques range from shooting water that do damage, freezing lakes, or even pushing enemies back with powerful waves.
- This bending style is a mixture of offensive and defensive.
- Water bending opens up many options in bodies of water that are otherwise closed to the other disciplines.
Earthbending
- Specializes in manipulating the earth around them.
- Any area which contains land is perfect for earth benders.
- They have the abilities to pull columns straight up from the earth, drill their way through any mountain and launch themselves through the air.
- This bending style, like water bending, is a mixture of offensive and defensive.
- Earth benders do not take fall damage as long as they land on the ground.
Firebending
- Specializes on destruction and incineration.
- Any environment, besides on any bodies of water, is perfect for them.
- They may create rings of fire on the ground, shoot lines of fire, and even create exploding fireballs.
- This bending style is pure offensive, and very little mobility/defense.
- Fireball is the only ability they may use that does not require any solid ground beneath them.
Airbending
- Specializes in mobility & defense.
- The land is the ideal place for airbenders, although they may also bend over the water.
- Bending air allows you to use wind to blast things away, forming a shield of air around you, or using a tornado to lift you, or your opponent, off of their feet.
- This bending style is perfect for pacifists and explorers for they lack any raw damage output, but make up for it with their utility and speed.
- Choosing air as your element increases your overall speed, decreases the rate of hunger and disables fall damage.
Chi Blocking
- Specializes in bare handed combat.
- Move faster, jump higher, take less fall damage.
- Can block someones chi, stopping them from Bending for a short period of time.
- Abilities range from Higher Jumps, Faster Punches, and Paralysis of enemies.
HELP! It's not working!
This is a Bukkit plugin, not a single player mod. It will never be a single player mod. Go to the Bukkit Wiki to set up your own server. You can play on it just like you would single player, and it requires nothing more than setting it up.
If anything is not working, look around for a development build of Bending.
Development progress
School has picked back up, so plugin development will be very intermittent at best. I've done away with the ordered releases, and will most likely be keeping 1.0.7 the "official" version until I release it as 1.1.0. It's a jump, I know, but if I were forced to stick to a schedule, the plugin would never get done. This is because there are things I like coding and want to code now, and I shouldn't have to wait just because I have something else planned for the version.
As such, there is no ETA on the release. The dev build will of course be updated as I add features, but 1.1.0 will only be officially released when everything is completed, and that could take a very long time.

Posted Apr 4, 2013Hello,
TagAPI doesn't seem to work with bending. Their name doesn't have the colour as their element, the names simply are all normal. Help please?

So you never responded to being able to choose what blocks water can be bended from. The reason I want this is so that I can bend from snow blocks.

The lightning issue is on your server. It happened 3 times to me in the last 24hrs.

Please edit posts, instead of posting 3 times in succession.
And exactly - they never even moved in OctopusForm. So why do you want to be able to?
@Bca1849
That's something I wanted to do, but is basically impractical with Bukkit.
@animationhero421
1. Not feasible with Bukkit. 2. So Torrent? Or Surge's freezing feature? 3. Ah, probably because your server is on hard. But fully charged lightning does have a miss chance still, unless your server admin changed that in the config.

Posted Apr 3, 2013Feel free to shoot down what I'm about to say but I have some ideas for the pluggin. 1. Earthbending passive: Earthbenders can scale up earthbendable blocks and hang from earthbendable blocks. 2: Waterbenders get icecreeper which is a stream if ice or water hits and freezes (this should do no damage or little damage) . 3. (Not apart of adding to bending) Can lightning's damage be reduced as it can instant kill with full health and fully charged doesn't miss which has been a serious problem.

Posted Apr 3, 2013I agree with you about 9 moves, but this plugin should be updated sooner or later, thats what i think, and best update would be new moves, or upgrading old moves.

Actually only one instance in the show did they ever become "tired" from bending, and that was The Drill. I disagree, I think 9 moves is a nice number especially given the slots and restrictions from Bukkit.
@codiaz
I've already fixed it in the dev build, but cannot upload it for about a week.
@Bca1849
@zanisxx
OctopusForm requires constant attention and concentration to keep up. Katara and Aang were never able to move quickly, they used the octopus to do what they wanted/needed. This manifests itself as the requirement to stay sneaking.
@machado197328
The lag isn't something I can assure you over. It's currently about as optimized as I know how and can do, but I can get no further information about it.
@PappaSmurf80918
Like I've said, when Craftbukkit puts out a Beta I will update. In the meantime, as others have said, the dev build seems to work.

Posted Apr 2, 2013Orion, my server recently acquired patronage from a games comunity, and I think you will be glad to know that hopefully it will be the first large brazilian server with the bending theme.Therefore, I'd like to be assured that this plugin won't cause lag when there's a lot of players at once.
My brother played at your server once, I believe that at the time it had 20 players and it wasn't laggy, however I recall that when this plugin had just a bit more than 1k downloads, it was very laggy at least when I tried it.

Posted Apr 2, 2013I guess it would be unfair, if we could use torrent/water manipulation/icycle while having octopus form, because dont forget, octopus form have a chance blocking attack :P but well, i want that octopus form could be toggled on/off :P not with shift

I understand what you are saying but then can you at least make octopus form stay around u after u tap shift and then be able to extend its arm about 5-6 blocks away so it is more useable so it is kinda like a toggle but u cannot use any other attacks with it activated. And can u make fire benders be able to shoot fire out of flames on the ground.
