    So recently i was inspired by the old notch apple recipe suggestion and my current un-stick piston recipe suggestion.

    I decided to suggest a few more. however, having several suggestion threads may place a bad impression and also my get me in trouble for post farming. So I decided, to put all of them in one suggestion thread.

    Support clarifications.
    If you support a majority of the recipes, do support
    If you like/dislike half of the recipes, do neutral.
    If you dislike most of these, do no support.

    These could be good ideas.

    but End Portal Idea I give is a No Support, that would make people go to The End.

    no support on end frame sponge and create a skyblock

    End frame reasons stated above,

    Sponge gets rid of rarity

    Create a skyblock gets rid of rarity

    I'm gonna go through this step by step since my opinions vary.

    Let me begin by saying that any recipe that replaces an action within the game seems to be of little to no value, so no support for #1:Obsidian to Lava Bucket, #2:Ice to Water Bucket and #8:Concrete Powder to Concrete.

    #3: Magma Cream to Slime Ball.
    No support, I don't think anyone would actually use it when slime balls are easily enough to obtain (9 stacks for one grass at some shops) and can use magma creams for potions and magma blocks.

    #4 and 5: Apple/Notch Apple to Gold
    No support.

    #6: Poisoning a Potato
    Support. Unless I'm missing something, they aren't really used for anything so I don't mind if they are craftable. Recipe makes sense.

    #7: Creating Gunpowder
    Neutral. I think gunpowder is easily obtainable, but recipe is difficult enough that I don't think will cause problems either.

    #9: Skyblock Tutorial Book
    No support if book refers to Create a Skyblock becasue of rarity. However, would support if book was Cyk753's book.

    #10 and #13: Dyeing Concrete Powder/Terracotta
    Support for an Undyeing recipe like glass. Should have to undye before can dye again.

    #11: Dyeing Banners
    No support. Current crafting recipes for banners are easy enough.

    #12: Dropper to Dispenser
    Neutral. They are easy enough to make, but no harm in allowing recipe either.

    #14: Dyeing Carpet
    Support as long as recipe is 8:1 for consistency like others above and have to undye like glass first.

    #15: Sandstone to Sand
    No support. Crafting recipe for sandstone requires 4 sand which means blocks are lost in the process. Would maybe support a 1:1 recipe.

    #16: Sponge
    No support because of rarity.

    #17: Cobweb
    Support. IMO this is the best recipe suggestion of the bunch. Recipe makes sense. To my knowledge no one sells cobwebs for a better price than /warp trade so having an additional item to craft and sell at a lower price may help economy.

    #18 and 23: Bones/Bone Blocks
    No support. Easy enough to just get bones plus the bones are destroyed to make the bonemeal/bone blocks. Shouldn't be able to remake a skeleton's bone.

    #19 and 21: Music discs
    No support. They are obtainable and can trade for any disc that you want.

    #20: Blaze rods
    No support because of availability of blaze rods and limited use of recipe.

    #22: Cut to Reg Sandstone
    Support. Recipe makes sense and Reg to Cut is also an even exchange.

    #24: Chainmail Armor
    No support. Chainmail is already obtainable and is not craftable in vanilla either.

    #25: End Portal
    Support as long as End is disabled and can't be used for some bug exploit. Could be used as decorative blocks and recipe will make it relatively rare.

    #26: Comparator
    Neutral. Recipe makes sense.

    #27 and 29: Rail Upgrade to Activator/Detector Rail
    Support. Recipes make sense and could be useful.

    #28: Rail Upgrade to Powered Rail
    No support. Easier to just make powered rail.

    #29: Rail to Ladder
    No support. Easier to just make ladder.

    If I got anything wrong, or need to clarify anything please let me know.

    Ahh your so creative, Catclaw.
    1) No use, its already at its simplest. No support.
    2) Same with #1.
    3) Neutral. I could find this useful, but you don't really use slime for anything.
    4) Neutral. If you have extras of these, you can convert them into gold, but I would save them for when you go into /warp mob.
    5) Same with #4.
    6) No support. Whats the use for a poison potato?
    7)I could see the use in this. Support.
    8) Support. It'll be easier to harden concrete, and not waste the durability on your pick. (Also if added, make sure it gives the bucket back.)
    9) Support. You can give it to beginners :D
    10) To dye to another colour? Heck yeah. Support.
    11) Same with #10.
    12) Neutral, its easy to craft both items.
    13) Same with #10.
    14) Same with #10.
    15) No support. You can get sandstone at ma, and therefore people can farm sand.
    16) No support, due to the rarity of the sponge. You can only get it at the legendary crate.
    17) Support. This recipe will be extremely useful to builders that are looking for a spooky build, and they don't have to buy it at /warp trade at a ridiculous price.
    18) Support. I have so much bonemeal lying around like seriously I just can't.
    19) Support. I have no the heck idea where you get disks.
    20) Neutral. It would kinda lose the rarity of the blaze rod.
    21) Same with #19.
    22) Support. Easier for builders.
    23) Can't you already do this? Correct me if I'm wrong. No support.
    24) Support! I love chainmail armour and its sad we can't get it.
    25) No support. This can lead people to the end, which is not in sky block.
    26) Can't you craft this easily? No support.
    27) Support. Easier to craft.
    28) No support. Powered Rails are easier to craft.
    29) Support. Easier to make. ( I think.)
    30) No support. Easier to make a ladder.

    Overall:
    No Supports:1o
    Neutral: 5
    Support: 15

    Half of these crafting recipies just replace in-game actions or crafting recipes that use the same exact materials. I just truly feel like these crafting recipes are being taken too far here and just amiing the game way easier than it needs to be.

    Okay, love the ideas but needs a bit of development. :)
    1. I don’t feel as if obsidian and a bucket should make lava, most people know that if you want to pick up lava from obsidian you can right click it with a bucket and it will go into your inventory. We also can’t return the bucket to you if it’s crafted, the plugin doesn’t allow it.
    2. It’s the same with the ice and the bucket, you can just place the ice and break it to get water! Everyone knows that! Haha, and also we cannot return the bucket again. :)
    3. Slime balls aren’t actually hard to get, players can make their own slime grinders and lapis is pretty expensive still, despite being reduced at /warp grass. Wouldn’t mind though.
    4. Wouldn’t mind the pickaxe and golden apple but maybe you should get a bit more gold out of that, gold is pretty common now. :)
    5. Again, same as above, maybe a tiny bit more gold!
    6. The poisonous potato would be a nice recipe, because I believe you can only get it from farms as a rare item?
    7. Gunpowder, uncessesary because everyone hates creepers and want to kill them! ;)
    8. Bucket problem again.
    9. The skyblock book would be a good idea, but I doubt new players would be able to a) afford a book and quill b) know the recipe to craft the book. Maybe a /helpbook command or something?
    10. Concrete colours changing is a big yes, it’s so time consuming having to use a sand converter! :D
    11. Banner changing wouldn’t be a bad idea, but banners are just 6 wool and 1 stick, it’s not quite the end of the world if you make the wrong colour....
    12. Dispensers 100% yes, you can't hold shift and craft dispensers because of the stupid bow!!

    Didn’t have time to finish writing this, but will carry on after work. :)

    Here is my opinion on all the points you've made, I've put down my thoughts in no way wanting to sound rude if i am! Sorry :heart:

    I'm going to break it down for you:
    1. Obsidian to lava
    Unneeded in my oponion as it can already be done by just placing it and right-clicking with a bucket.

    2. Ice to lava
    Unneeded, you can place the ice, break it and then pick it back up.

    3. Magmacream to slime
    Unneeded slime is not that expensive to buy.

    4. Golden apple to gold
    Who is going to do this?!

    5. Noth apple to gold
    See point 4.

    6. Poisonous potato
    Unneeded, what do you use those for anyway?

    7. Creating gunpowder
    What about just killing creepers?

    8. Concrete hardening
    Support, but as I've heard making costum recipes with buckets(and getting them back) isn't possible.

    9. Skyblock tutorial book
    Could work, but maybe just give it to players as an item rather than make them craft it.

    10. Dying concrete
    Maybe, but as I've heard for every colour option there will need to be 16 recipes. Not sure if it's gonna be worth the trouble.

    11. Dying banners
    Support, don't see anything wrong with this.

    12. Dropper to dispencer
    Support, makes my accidental crafter droppers useful again.

    13. Dying terracotta
    See point 10.

    14. Dying carpet
    Unneeded, 2 wool isnt that much trouble to get, and also point 10 applies here.

    15. Breaking sandstone into sand
    Well ok, maybe.

    16. Sponge
    No

    17. Spiderwebs
    Yes, this could work

    18. Bones
    Really?

    19. Musicdisks
    No, they are hard to get in the real game, why make them easy here? And tbh, just get 2 spawners set up right and you have a farm...

    20. Recrafting blazerods
    Unneeded.

    21. Smashing disks
    But why?!

    22. Cracking the sandstone
    Ok, maybe this could work.

    23. Block to bone
    Unneeded.

    24. Chainmail armor
    Sure, but is it really needed?

    25. End portal
    No

    26. Comparator
    Nothing wrong with the original recipe.

    27, 28 ,29. Rail upgrades
    Maybe.

    30. Rail to ladder
    Who would want to convert their expensive rails into inexpensive ladders?!

    I support the ability to redye items, as some items (like concrete powder) are a no go if you make them the wrong color (then nobody wants them :< ) and I love the idea of music discs being crafted like that, though instead of yellow dye I would make it require another music disc, just to keep the same value, as unlike the other example you showed, that music disc would be crafted en-mass if that recipe was allowed. The cobweb and chainmail ideas are also very good! No support on everything else though, sorry :(

    These are such creative ideas, however I'm going with neutral. Here's why:
    • Whilst I love custom designs, this is at heart a vanilla server, if too many recipes are added it takes it further away from that. A few are ok to enhance gameplay etc.
    • A lot of these suggestions are incredibly niche, and probably wouldn't be used all that much.
    • There is a survival aspect to the server, you have to be conservative with that you use and aware that some crafting recipes cannot be reversed.

    Thank you so much for taking the time to make a suggestion!

    Your suggestion has been thoroughly looked at, and we’ve decided to take your word! Your suggestion has been accepted.

    Please see Server Update - November 23, 2018 | Skyblock Forums for more information.

    Although we could not accept all of the recipe suggestions for reasons of practicality and gameplay mechanics, we did review each one and implemented the ones we liked best and that Noobcrew thought would be a good fit for the game.

    This thread has been moved to the Suggestions Archive. If you are dissatisfied with this action, please report this post, and a moderator or administrator will reconsider it.

    Kind regards :D
