Official Bending Server

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 Oct 17, 2013ORION can you please let us set cooldown to the RaiseEarth ability? I think this is the only thing missing in this plugin D:
And I also have a bug report, when we use the ''powered FireBlast ability" (holding shift) the cooldown in the config file doesn't work on this case

Ok do /pex group [groupname] add -bending.water.watermanipulation this will deny them of using watermanipulation, good luck. Need more help? PM me or find me on my server.
@mercilessdegree
There is no problem asking it but normally this forum is for bug reports only, but everyone uses it for help and server shit xD so... :P
@hickster15
Yes but it is not working anymore, it got f** in 1.6 if you want it to work again, then or get another plugin to do it for you OR start coding xD Sorry but I think the plugin isn't getting an update anymore, or maybe later, we'll see. I am now trying to code it a bit myself and got rid of some bugs and a bit more lightweight but I am not that good... I might give my bending.jar for free away soon if I have removed some more bugs.

Permissions
@NickoGreeks
Yep, it does but it is an amazing plugin!
@aceliip
Only OPs get it and else use permissions, good luck.
@machado197328
There are some global cooldowns and some cooldowns on the bending it self but for most you can not modify those, it has been said orion is working on the plugin on giving it the finishing touch, but I think the last update was the finishing touch and this is it. If you want more or a stabler build you will need to code it yourself. Like some servers already did.

the server is down because of some corrupt data... orion doesn't have the time to fix it right now.
i didn't say anything before because this is the plugin page, but people are going to keep asking. be patient.

nope. it is called the flooding glitch.
orion is either working on fixing it, has it fixed in the next bending update (not usually the same as when he updates for the bukkit builds), or can't fix it.
i am guessing it can't be fixed. not yet anyways. it looks like mojang's water update is the cause. so water is created and spread much easier.
it can be started a number of ways. not just torrent. torrent is just the easiest to start and spread with.

the earthgrab 'issue' isn't unbalanced. its as deadly as someone using octopusform on someone in an ice cage. if you get caught and dont have the skill to counter it you die - simple as that. and the water shield thing... just dont shift at the source. look at the horizon or into the sky, not below where there are water sources. or just use bottles.

Posted Oct 13, 2013i accidentally didnt make the water wall clear. Because you click then shift if there is a source in the way it reassigns to surge.

Permissions! Get groupmanager and add to a group in that world -bending.*
@raptorfarian
Firewall cannot be done in water -_- only above it... and earthgrab is nothing like the ice where you are stuck in cause in the ice you are stuck in, you cannot move + you can melt it! and the waterwall is to defend yourself from incoming blocks... so you have to stand still..
@Pinecraftboy
Disable the chat from bending in the config.
