    What part of EcoCityCraft is this suggestion for:
    All Main Servers​
    Short title for your suggestion:
    Buff Prices or Change Star Tool Prices​
    What are you suggesting:
    The Star Tool prices are absurb. These tools make nowhere near what they are valued at compared to non-star tools. Nether Stars are so tough to get on Magic Days but even worse on Non-Magic Days. I am suggesting that Star Tool prices nerf back to 1500 per tool or prices need to be buffed.​
    Why is this a good addition for EcoCityCraft?:
    We play for the longevity of the server. I hope one day it would stay around forever, but I can see little things like this to push people away from the server.​
    Other information:
    All these prices are sold to the server. For instance, a Star Rod makes $12K/hr compared to a Fortune 3 tool which makes $21k/hr off Nether Wart or $36K/hr off Wheat/Seeds. I can get in depth more. A melon sword makes $15K/hr and a Star Hoe makes $62.5K/hr off Wheat/Seeds and $47K/hr off Nether Wart.​
    Plugin or custom addition:
    N/A​
    One suggestion per form:
    I Understand.​

    +1 not sure why all star tools are basicallyy 2200 nstars right now. They dont all make the same ammount of money. They should vary in prices depending on what they do, like they used to be.

    I wish behind the scene changes would be discussed with the server like how much they want people to make an hour. That would let us understand where they are coming from.

    +1, As it stands, star tools are one hell of a grind, and in the end don't appear to be worth that grind unless it's the hoe. 1500 stars per tool would still be a grind but at least balance the cost of the tool more with how much can be made using it

    One of the big issues I think ECC has in retaining users is that the custom stuff that differentiate ECC from normal vanilla (such as star tools) is locked behind an immense grind that is unachievable for the average Joe.

    2200 NSTARS is insane when I can make double the money farming wheat with a max pick or hoe

    Star tools were always meant to be 1500, and I could've sworn they were...
    We don't normally take suggestions regarding prices, but this one I'll accept simply because I genuinely thought they were already at 1500.

    @ClarinetPhoenix will be fixing this shortly and adjusting them to what I originally thought they were.
    PS: @ClarinetPhoenix don't forget to copy to MainNorth. <3
