v2.0.1-rev1

Bobcycle

Thank you for taking the time to read our bi-weekly (and sometimes weekly) balance changes. We changed some values around and introduced new limitations to further balance the economy. Note that you should be aware that creating a stable economy is a long process and will not work in one go. Changes made can be reverted in future versions.

Make yourself heard if you do not agree with certain decisions made when it comes to balancing. These decisions are made and discussed with some of the most active players in the community before it reaches the server.

⠀
The spawner prices are now halved from the original prices.
It's unfair for donators to have an increased advantage over normal players when it comes to silking spawners as they are able to collect a significant amount of spawners and sell them on the market. Not to mention that server performance is an honest concern. Think blaze spawner in this case. You may be asked to trade diamonds to silk a spawner.

Cave spider: 16 8 diamonds⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Zombie: 12 6 diamonds⠀⠀⠀⠀Magma: 0 diamonds
Normal spider: 12 6 diamonds⠀⠀⠀⠀Skeleton: 16 8 diamonds⠀⠀⠀ Blaze: 24 12 diamonds
Silverfish: 0 diamonds⠀⠀⠀

The price you need to pay gets calculated with performance impact and scarcity of the spawner in mind. You will have to pay more for blaze spawners as they aren't as rare and have a bigger performance impact. Magma spawners on the other hand are more scarce and do not have a bigger performance impact as they're easy to kill.

Wither has been slightly nerfed and can now be killed underground.
The Wither was in need of some amendments as it was quite hard to kill. We still want this to be a difficult boss which forces you to make a plan of action to defeat it. In this case, we've tweaked some values around and we have made the boss to be killed underground easier. It does, however, have a bigger explosion range, beware!

All captains will now be kicked from the game after 30 minutes.
We have removed anti-afk from every donator perk because we didn't want players to afk near their mob farms to generate passive income through loot. However, our biggest farmers (other than Pirates) are our beloved Captains.

You have gone a little far staff, I understand that you want to make a stable economy but some things are just too far! When someone afks they do make it so that we get increased lag. I do not fully understand the lag situation but 30 minutes is not long. Iron farms are being nerfed because people are using them too much. If iron was such a big deal as you put it then it would be like having an infinite diamond gen. In most cases you can get more iron by mining than using a farm with the current afk time. Iron is the second most found ore. It's rarity is very low. And the silk spawners I can understand a little bit. More people have the perks and use them a lot. Some prices are ridiculous! Yea I can understand a few diamonds but the harder spawners to get are the ones charged the most. Blazes are extremely hard to get a hold of because of all the blazes. If they have to pay 12 entire diamonds just for a spawner then jack up the price of diamond armor as well. Diamond armor is only 24 diamonds. And the villager prices can be bad at some times too. Think about it. Mending, everyone needs it. If the prices are jack up too high then the economy can go to shit because it is harder to get and in turn means that some people will not buy it then. If it was charged for the old prices then more people would buy it. In 1.15 it was really hard to get most of the good enchants because everyone bought it. If you care about a good economy so much that you would tax the players that did buy the rank with irl money; the newer people who have not sunk that much time in will leave and not recommend the server. I do know that all of the staff will do their best to help out but all the stuff you have done so far is hurting your player base. The older prices were the best because they were harder to get. And more people did more stuff just because it was a better way to do it. If you keep doing this and making prices higher and then also shrinking the boarders then the prices will be in a loop. Just think of what I said. Make the prices like they were. Make afk longer. Why did we buy these perks other than to help ourselves? The entire work up of the economy is sad and no point. People will charge what they want unless they are too scared so that they charge too high and nothing gets bought. Just think. Think of the server as a large company with a large company everywhere you look! Just think.
