    Okay. So this is an issue that I have been thinking about for some time now. And that is the /kit spawner cooldown duration. Let me start of by saying, it is a great addition to the server. It is a good kit, and a decent purchase when used correctly. However, that being said, it has its downfalls. And one major disadvantage is its cooldown duration. While I understand that it gives you a free spawner, which is a rare item on this server, this kit costs $55.00 USD in the skyblock store. And to basically be paying $55.00 for one spawner that only comes around once every 7 days just doesn't seem very reasonable to me. I would very much love to see the price for the kit either come down in price, or the cooldown duration decreased. Maybe once every 5 days? Which is a normal work week for kids who have school, and parents and young adults with jobs. This wouldn't negatively effect the server in anyway, and would bring a positive change for the skyblock community. Just something to consider. Thank you! :)

    The kit spawner was to be used once every 5 days initially. Don't know why they changed it. Support

    Spawners were always considered 'rares', even on classic. Their classic price was between 4 and 5 diamonds, which was not unreasonable, considering its utilities. Now that they're more useful(thanks to hoppers), it's only natural that the price has gone up. With time, I think that the price will settle back down to somewhere between 6 and 9 diamonds as the number of spawners on the server increases from kits and lucky crates.

    Right now, spawners are pretty hard to obtain for new players and non-donors. Decreasing either the cooldown rate of the kit or the price of the kit would still allow the server to make money as well as expedite the process by which spawners become more commonplace, and accessible to poorer players. This, I think, would have a healthy effect on the economy.

    This is actually not a bad idea. 7 days is a bit too much especially for 55$ for the kit. 4-5 days sounds more reasonable or like 35-40$ for the kit perhaps. Maybe even giving 2 spawner's every 7 days for 55$

    Support. I was surprised when I discovered the cooldown is a week not 5 days like in /classic

    The 5 days was brilliant. It feels like ages when I get my kit spawner and I start feeling as if it was a complete waste of money. Support and also I do feel as if the price is too high, regardless of cooldown.

    Support, this did kind of shock me since it is a high price for a kit

    Support. I didn't even realise this was changed. 7 days is just too high, especially considering that the kit is $55.

    Support. Waiting seven days feels like 7 weeks towards me and the rarity of newspapers are starting to decrease because more are going out in the economy

    Support. Don't even own the kit. Its just silly that spawners are like 18 diamonds, and this would mathematically help.

    support, This could encourage more people to donate and be generally helpful towards newer players as it'd help contribute to lowering the in game prices of spawners as rn its pretty expensive to buy spawners

    I think there is 2 things that'll make the spawner price drop.

    1. Nerf to gold (pretty much island levels)
    2. Spawner cooldown reduced

    I think if number 1 were to happen, not many people would have gold farms and the demand on gold would decrease etc.

    If number 2 were to go down, lots of players will have spawners for sale as they are obtained quicker.

    If 1 AND 2 were to happen, then I'd sell all my spawners :)

    Support. It just knocks two days off so you are still waiting a long time for them. It is fairly balanced with 5 days.
