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.

Tornado bringing people in the air would be far too powerful. I agree about chiblocking. Earth doesn't need earth spikes.
@Nosfeato
The current version of bukkit is 1.6.*. How is 1.5.2 "updated"?
@Vlaminations
It does not. I had to make a choice to support one or the other, and chose to support the newer one, though like you I disliked it (at first).
@raptorfarian
Thanks.
@NeroTNT
Use permissions.
@Nosfeato
You only need to post once.
@RedDan7
Any permissions plugin can have default groups, which can deny bending. So that feature already exists in your favorite permissions plugin.
@animationhero421
There is a fly glitch, but it's not as easy to reproduce as what you just said.
@PhanaticD
It already is.
@Bloomsbomb
This has been a frequently asked question. The bendingPlayers.yml file is already very large on any server. Being able to save x number of bending sets will multiply its size by x. (So 4 saved sets + your current one = 5x as big of a file). That's not something I'm interested in doing.
@Alekbanka1
Read the FAQ.
@NeroTNT
You only need to post once.

I just checked your bending server... Maybe just ... maybe you should first look there... Cause srrsly nothing there is ok... you did nothing to reduce the lag and than you come here and whine about some high CPU usage... Well maybe you should start of with getting the server fixed, like some anti lagg plugins and maybe some changed in the config...

Posted Sep 25, 2013Could you make is so that if you have all four elements you could have saved settings for each element so you could switch as in: /bending switch (element) and it will go to the set slots for that element anytime you want? Because if you are the avatar having only a few of each element seems to underpower the avatar

Posted Sep 24, 2013There's a fly glitch with waterspout and airspout. If a person has either spout active and rapidly press the space bar they can fly.

Posted Sep 24, 2013You should make a option in the config to turn off the default perms, Itd be great because then people who have different worlds could make it so bending only works in that world. Hope ya take on board this idea <3 But if there is a thing like this already, can someone share it with me pls :)

I do believe something was said about it a while ago. You will need to update Factions to use this plugin. It is just part of it, not all updates are necessarily favorable.

Another thing you could add would be earthbending slabs a earth spike! Chi blocking could be improved a little too! And could you make tornado so it would make people go in the air.

They only think like a jump boost for waterbenders in the series has only happened with things like WaterSpout, which you already have. So no, no jump boost.
@DiamondMiningGod145
Bloodbending already exists and check the FAQ about Metalbending.
@raptorfarian
No plans. The update has to come out first.

Posted Sep 22, 2013Whoops. Im sorry, I found that you can become an avatar. Oh, and a suggestion, you should also add metal bending and blood bending. That would be awesome.
