So where’s the gold inflation?

I'd be interested to know your thoughts (and anyone else) on keeping spawner changing, with the single change of removing pigmen spawners.

 

Remove changeable spawners, they break gamemode instead add salvaging plugin

 

I think having changeable spawners is beneficial to Raid in multiple ways.
1) Obviously Brawl earns money from the dragoneggs which Players can purchase on the store. However the price of the eggs on the store is too low since barely anyone is intrested in the end event as you can have them without any risk from the store for 5$.
2) Players which are new to tracking have a decent chance of tracking an "AFK warp" and get a great reward from it: Dragon eggs.
Therefore i would rather keep them with some changes

Another thing i would like to add is the "Diversity" of using the eggs. At the moment endermanspawners and pigman spawners are the only "viable" way to use your egg.
So i suggest making other ingame items not as common/ only obtainable by having a certain spawner. I have already talked to Eil about removing the "Slime farming glitch" to make slime a lot less common, hence making slimespawners another viable option to use your egg.

Another "High value" ingame mob dop are wither skulls ->Wither boss -> netherstar -> Haste beacons. By removing the natural wither skeleton spawn in nether fortresses Skeleton spawners in the nether or koth loot would be the only two ways to get a beacon.

Lastly making Guardians drop even more experience points might be another way to increase the other viable options to use your egg on. I Guess only very few people know but "Adult" zombiepigman drop 5 Exp points whereas guards drop 10 exp points. Obviously the Benefit of higher xpdroprates didnt comensate value of the addidional gold drop of pigmen. So maybe you could test increasing the xpdroprates to 12.5 or so.

I agree with adding the salvaging plugin for 3 reasons.
1) No more messy af iron Banks with 500 iron sets.
2) Another way to get iron for Trackers -> making gathering tracking materials easier
3) Giving Trackers and even pvpers a reason to iron pvp as they can get iron blocks for trackers from it

Obviously no gold salvaging, Im torn on Diamond salvaging as Diamonds are easier to farm than iron lol.(With haste Boosters)
NERF HASTE BOOSTERS they are 20 times the normal efficiency they are the "Bad Boys" who actually ruin the game economy/balance

 

Dragon eggs will be increased in price next map. As you say, the shop eggs are far more convenient than the End event at the moment.

In all honesty, skeleton spawners in the nether were meant to be disabled to prevent mass wither skeleton farming. While I can understand your point of making them the only way of getting beacons, the rate at which they spawn wither skeletons is very high. Although there is potentially to make that less, but still a better way to get skulls than regular farming.

The slime issue can certainly be altered.

Salvaging I can see the need for, and everything you've said about it increasing iron PvP, making it more viable, making iron armour worth something are all valid points. My only negative with it is vault thinning, where players can thin large vaults down a lot, decreasing the reward from raids / number of bases.. But then you could argue - What reward? It's iron. For that same reason I don't like the idea of diamond salvaging, as it can increase vault thinning far more than iron will.
Should salvaging cost something? (very low - 1 XP level, 1 gold?)

 

Thats why changeable spawners should Be disabled

 

I dont think it makes a difference wheter i raid iron blocks or iron armour. I never have more than 9 iron sets in my pvp bank. I warp like once in 2 weeks to my main iron bank.
and as i said i dont think that there is a need for diamond or gold salvaging

 

You should keep spawner changing. However, some spawners are too OP.
Pigmen spawners should be changed. Right now, you can get around 200g per spawner / hour, which is very OP. But there are multiple solutions to this problem. You can decrease the amount of drops from pigmen, remove the ability to create multiple pigmen spawners, or remove them entirely.
Villager spawners are also very OP. The spawning rate should definitely be decreased.
Wither skeleton spawners should be removed.
The other spawners are not OP, and shouldn't be changed.

 

Not if it is done properly. When I was gridning at mine Einfachespur14 was online 24/7 and he was on exactly when I wanted to farm. I was able to avoid his movments for ages. Now this might sounds creepy but I knew tah the logged off for 1 hour everyday at the same time and then he would come back on. ( Hence I avoided him tracking me)

In the end it was my own stupidity that got mine tracked becuase I didnt expect someone from team Mel0n to raid me since I was on good terms with them. Even then like a doofis I was depositing all my gold as I went along farming it so people knew.

Otherwise I woudl have like 10k gold by now

 

Yeah.. but it wouldn't have been if I had anticipated Necromancer becuse I didn't think Mel0n would track me. I grinded a little bit at a time. Otherwise I could have avoided getting raided alot longer. and at that time there was kind of 3 power teams active
