    Sadly Nstars are just a delayed reaction time.

    Melonsword = 1,000 nstars. Okay? That's a good thing right? Takes money away.

    And then comes the delayed reaction, the Msword makes enough money to buy itself back again, and from that point on, it's just a money making machine.

    This book may not have the same quick reaction, but you know, Nstars come out, money is taken away, good thing.

    But after some time, it will pay for itself in the fact that you don't have to stop farming as often to get it e-repaired, more money right there, you also just plain don't have to pay for e-repairs as often. All these erepairs and extra farming time will add up.

    And plus the fact that builders are further and further away from being able to make money. The higher the "Max" farm money possible, the less money builders make.

    Aka, if we raise the ceiling, it just makes further and further ladders to climb.

    Ok This is my new thing.

    It costs 400k. It takes money out. I hate the voting rewards. He doesn't want to add money right? then why is he doing that and if it gets too low well lets have some snipebox events

    I cannot vouch for Andrew, but I can say a lot of things he's doing is hurting the economy.

    But voting is a huge impact. It started all the eff7 picks and melon swords. They aren't money. They are nether stars. So like 200+ melon swords * 350k. Plus the rest of the nstar shop. Maybe like 70 mil +

    We're trying to avoid new types of these items, not trick ourselves into thinking "Ah, it's tiny, it won't hurt anything."

    I wanted to make a point or so, but it didn't come across correctly.

    The point is that the star shop doesn't remove any cash from the game, just stars. The only time that stars could ever be used to generate cash would be to sell to the server; the rest of the time it's just hopping around with what's already out there.

    I'm confused, you've made your point, how is it related to this topic?

    That any and all arguments about this being a money sink are false; as this is acting as a buffer rather than a sink. Seeing how this suggestion removes nether stars that would otherwise be used for tools that generate a ton of resources, and thus money; I don't see why not.

    as others have said, i would effect the people who do E-Repairs, making players raise the price to perform repairs on enchanted items because it wouldn't be needed as often, And also the server wouldn't want to implement this because it would make having the E-repair ability to be less desired by players who pay the server to have that ability, so it would possibly take Real world currency from the server. It would be sweet as an implemented idea, but for this server it would wreak havoc at certain aspects of its economic balance, or lack thereof lol.

    But it still hurts in the long run. An Eff VII pick "seems" like a nice money sink for all those Nstars, but it earns itself back quicky.

    This Ebook would do the same, albeit slower. Unbreaking IV means less time getting e-repairs, not only meaning you can farm longer without interruptions generating more money therefor lowering farming prices slightly, but it also puts a hit on the E-repair market.
