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.

Than the build flag should be working? Try another protection plugin, as long as you cannot build somewhere, you cannot bend.
@Itachi_333
Okej I think you did not understand the whole avatar series... Waterbending has nothing to do with energy bending, energy bending is bending the energy in someone, which allows you to take or give someone his bending away/back and you have one called "Astral projection" which was showed off by korra in the tree of time. Taking bending has nothing, I repeat nothing to do with water. And no there is no way that the plugin can use keys that are not used by minecraft. Only the ones that are used by minecraft like 1,2,3, E, Shift, etc can be used.
@Ozelo
You need the latest version of mcore and faction + the latest version of bending to make them both work. Idk why you don't want to use mcore but it makes a lot more possible for factions.
@ricturd
Than maybe spawnbuild is the only plugin that is not working with bending, try something like worldguard or the ones from essentials, easy to use, and more help on every forum.

Posted Jan 4, 2014Can I disable factions integration? My problem is that I use an outdated factions plugin which does NOT depend on mcore and bending is spamming errors on console. I tried to update faction and then bending works, but factions not. So I would like to keep my old factions plugin and this one, can someone help me?

Posted Jan 4, 2014@codiaz I have suggestions about adding new spells in mod. There was a spell in waterbending so the player can take away bending from other player (legend of korra). Also when I waterbend I want to choose some of the spells, not all. Could you please add something like customisation buttons for it( # When I press "L" I can start using torrent and watermanipulation, but when I press "K" I get surge and healing waters). I don't think you understood my second idea(cause of my baaaad English) but I still want to see the first one in plugin.

Aaah you use the old bending plugin, or download the latest version OR use the pvp flag instead.
@nkomosim
First of all BH has weakened air bending since it was never shown off in the series that airbenders could launch themself! If you want to insult MY server than you won't get any help. Second of all it gives you that error in the log but you should not have any issues in game, normally! You won't get teleported back or anything like that, it will only spam your console full of shit that is caused by this bending, give me your server address and I will try check it out of what you are talking about and might have a fix for it.

thank you for your help. World Guard is too complicated. You can't build or destroy blocks with SpawnBuild but can use bend and use fireball to destroy blocks? Is there a simple spawn protection plugin that will stop bending? If so, what is it called? Does the default bukkit spawn protection in server.properties stop bending?

I'm talking about the "moving too quickly" problem. When you use airbending or surge in the avatarstate you get the issue. I'm talking about vanilla bending, not the weakened airbending over at BH.

Euhm never shown off in the series, firebenders can use heatcontrol to burn meat/ cook stuff but ores are not shown off in the series, so I think no.
@ricturd
Yes any. As long as they cannot build, they cannot bend!

Yes I know your console gets spammed with "[name] moved wrongly" but that is not making any lag or whatever...

How do you know what happens in the logs of the official server? o_0
@Dennis300190
On the right top of this page.
@Itachi_333
Serversigns is a plugin, how to use it is on their wiki, it is really easy. And you add the elements to yourself by /b a [element] [player (can be null (than it is yourself))] | to go in avatarstate you simply do /b b avatarstate | for all of these things you need OP or permissions.
@nashoxx
The old build works, only some new plants are not working with it.
@EmkMage
The falling sand entities are working not like that, it might be possible but I think it is not. Also the lava into rocks is kinda possible, you use heatcontrol, left click on lava and it turns in obsidian, all the not (full) lava blocks turn into stone.
@NathanWolf
Left click again with illumination, you could always try and use /b h [bending] in game if you want to know something about a bending.
