Resolved Sell Nether Stars/Wither Skeleton Skulls at Spawn

For clarification.

As nolan said. Mob heads are more then common in the better caves and just in dungeon chests. Opposed the the wither skulls that have a drop chance of 2.5%, but added to the mob spawning problems the server have, make that near to 0% with how rarely the mobs spawn . So having a shop that sold them at outrageous prices would simply waste time and effort, unless it was simply for the wither skulls.

But i really do not see the reason why you had to insult him when he merely said that there was no need to sell the other heads at outrageous prices for how common they were. Because he's right, i also have too many of the mob heads to count, it's just a waste.

 

Nobody ever said that the nether star should be sold. Nothing in my statement even closely alluded to that in any way shape or form.

 

I think maybe 5-10 diamonds per witherskull? and maybe for people who don't want to fight the wither, the nether star at like a stack of diamond (blocks?)?

EDIT: ALSO MY 100th POST!!!! YAYAYAYAYAYAY!!!!!! (Shadow ignore this edit)

 

I would say more then 4-8 iridium plates per wither skulls since diamonds are really easy to get, even if the UUM recipe is is disabled. And everyone has already said they think nether stars should not be sold.

 

Well, I for one would pay whatever for some. I've looked for hours... ORRRrrrr.. nolan can sell me a few for helping build his wither spawner..

 

4-8 iridium plates? that seems a bit steep. When mobs are spawning at their normal rate I can get a wither skull in a couple of minutes easily. Even with 25 nuclear reactors it is going to take me a long time to get 4-8 iridium plates.

At even 4 iridium plates it would be a stack and a half of iridium just to spawn a wither, do you really think it should cost 3 stacks of iridium for the highest wand and crystal core? or a stack and a half for something that makes 32 eu/t? I was able to get 6 wither skulls in 2 nights just hanging around for an hour later than normal, I cannot even thing of getting 3 stacks of iridium in 2 nights. The issue is when I used to be able to just stay up a little late and the mobs would spawn in the nether normally, now I can stay up all night any night of the week and there are no mob spawns at all, I mean I can kill all of the pigmen and still nothing, not a mob in sight for 30 min, even at 2-4 am pacific.

 

Honestly, i do think it's steep. But if it were to be sold in the shops, i think the price should be high enough to deter people from buying them and put them on the road to try and actually get the skulls themselves(if the spawning were to be fixed, that is).

But yeah yeah we know. Mob spawning is a *****.

 

The mob spawning issue in the nether is kinda messing with my head. Mob spawning everywhere else works. It works in the overworld, and in the end. It even works at blaze spawners in the nether, but natural spawns are just dead in the nether. I cannot figure out what is causing it, unless it is something that was done to customize mob spawn rates.

 

Maybe it's just the spawning conditions of the wither skeletons and/or coupled with the spawning issues. Honestly I have no clue. But lets just hope either it gets fixed or we get skulls sold soon in the market.

 

TBH I would rather get more mob spawns than the nether skulls being sold at spawn, although both would be great xD

 

I think alot of us feel the same way...

 

i think that if they are not going to let us buy the skulls that we should be able to pay for a fight against a wither skeleton or wither

 

well they would not have to spawn themfor us they could setup an easy spawn station that will spawn one wither skeleton per use of vendor, by use of mybe a locked dispenser or something, but selling them directly is a good way to go too I guess

 

WHAT ABOUT selling wither spawn eggs?

Actually i don't like the idea to sell the wither skulls for such enormous sums. just letting popup the term "pay to win" at this point. yes, a player can save his materials and work towards the price. still a newer player would be disadvantaged. since getting mobdrops at all is a matter of effort and not of "being rich".
where is the difference, when someone puts the effort in getting rich?
a new player needs all the mats to get in progress.

another idea, wich also was in discussion between glitch and me, was simply an npc quest.
we have to wait for the updates and the fixing though.

 

quest would be awesome. maybe ... a boss fight where you have to fight our worst griefers or something. or maybe dudu D:

 

Something like that, yea. I'm thinking baout a kind of complex quest, with sidequests etc.
What do the others think about a quest instead of buying?

 

I like this idea I dont think that there are enough quests on the server

 

but long complicated super hard intense Quest's work too....
I think that we should sell it for diamond, considering the fact that not all endgame people have THAT much iridium to spare, I mean, instead of making it THAT expensive, i'd say we should make a area where you can spawn the wither, and a time cap limit (say like, 4 a hour) and people would have to pay for the time slot and the wither skulls. (Via linking book to wither spawn area, where you can spawn the wither.)

 

You know that this has already been completed?. You can now buy a skull at slime island for 32 amber bearing stone. And that spawns 2 withers in the arena east of slime island.
