    Hello, I have a simple idea that will balance ender pearls and make the game a lot better.
    I think that you shouldn't be able to find ender pearls in your spawning island chest, and only in supply chests and the centre island. This is a very simple idea, and I hope it gets considered.

    Thanks for reading ~Serine1002

    Chests generate randomly and the same random generations are for spawn islands and the middle island. As far as I know this is impossible and I think it is unnecessary.

    Enderpearls are one of the main ways to get to the center without dying, I don't think we should remove them from the islands.

    I think that getting enderpearls from your first chest is an auto-win. You automatically get to the centre and the chests are yours. I think it should take an effort to get to the centre. This addition will help make people have to work for rewards.

    I don't think this is necessary due to the fact that chest are randomly filled by the server, and because enderpearls are kinda rare.

    Ender pearls aren't rare. I find one every 5 chests at minimum. And the codears create the panel of what the chests could contain, they could set island chests to not have ended pearls.

    I just don't think it's needed. If we go with this idea and everyone starts going to the second islands, then one player will stay back and egg/snow ball all the players off and win.
    I personally think it's unnecessary.

    Enderpearls are really good, but they aren't an insta win. After all, they are randomly put in chests and as in many games you just need some luck, which you do not always have.

    There is also a practical problem: The Skywars Plugin we use is a public one, I doubt that there is a possibility to differ two types of chests being filled with different stuff.

    If enderpearls only are in the middle will it be hard to get in... Sponges can't help, so -1

    Ender pearls are not the only way to get to the middle. I block my self to the middle without even feeling in danger every game. And sponges have helped a lot.

    Maybe add a 2-3 second peaceful mode where damage can't be dealt or recieved?
