    Hello, i have a question.

    Because of the new anvil update (1.4.2) Eff5 tools will be more accesible for players. But ofcourse not every player, because still lots of people wont be able to afford an Eff 5 tool.

    Because more Eff 5 tools will be available in ECC, is there any chance that the prices of pumpkins and melons will be lowered again?

    I hope that they don't get nerfed.. But yes, there is a high chance of prices getting nerfed again.

    But aren't the current prices of farming goods based on Eff. V? I don't think they will be nerfed. Anyways there won't be that many people with Eff. V tools because few people have access to using anvils and these people will have a monopoly over the market of Eff. V tools. They will keep the cost of Eff. V tools up and in turn, the prices of pumpkins and melons should basically stay the same.

    I wouldn't be surprised though if there is some small nerfing. :(

    Yes, current prices are based on eff5 tool but a nerf is likely again. :(
    Give it a week and eff5 will be as common as dirt.

    As the current farming prices are based on the use of a eff5 tool, it is unlikely that the crop prices will need to be balanced again. Carrots and potatoes cannot yet be sold to the server, but they will also be balanced accordingly.

    This ^

    The sole reason I got prices lowered last time is because eff 5 would've been available afterwards, it's not going to lower even more because of them.

    Farming prices are based on Eff5, and there was nothing else added to speed up the farming process (as there are no beacons, new and old crops grow at their normal/standard rate etc). I don't think there will be a nerf because its already pretty balanced.

    Also Eff5's are already under the 10k range for sales, even without the non-donators everyone online has a bunch and the market has already flattened out. 10k seems like the base rate as you could buy 3 sets of exp at the server store for 9.9k and then hopefully enchant 2 eff4's and then combine them. You may get unlucky on your enchanting but the lowest I can see Eff5's going is probably 5-7k due to just the exp cost.

    I can see either happening. The farming prices are already based off of eff 5 and if they are nerfed further, it would be even harder for new players to start. On the other hand, if more people have eff 5's, people would be making money faster so this can go either way but hopefully it isnt nerfed.
