    Yo people! So as most of you know, I posted this thread a few days ago. I talked about bringing back double XP for VIPs, and asked for your opinions.

    I got a lot of feedback about it (thanks y'all!), and I think I might have found a solution that works for everyone. I also made a new thread so my post isn't buried 15 pages deep, because I want your feedback on that one aswell.

    Here's how it could work:

    Everyday at midnight, VIPs would receive 3-4 Double XP Totems, and VIP+ would receive 6-8 (not decided yet). Each one of those allow you to set an area of 50 blocks around you as double XP for 15 minutes or so. Your max amount of totem will be 3-4 for VIPs and 6-8 for VIPs+, so you won't be able to stack them until you have 200 of them. It should fix most of you guys issues, which were...

    Q. This is unfair to non paying players.
    A.
    Doing this means that every player will only get 1h to 2h of double XP a day, maximum. For most people who plays casually, it should be well enough. In the end, it means that a player who plays way more will still gain more XP than a VIP who doesn't play much. So playtime is still the definite factor into who can level up faster.
    On top of that, the XP is shared in quite a big area, which brings the next question...

    Q. People will annoy VIPs for their totem and steal their grind spot!
    A.
    Since the totems will be limited, it will be much more unlikely to find a VIP with some available. At worst, it also makes it possible for the VIP to lie and say that he used them all already.
    And, as I said up there, the fact that the totem won't move allows us to make its range much bigger. Stealing a grind spot would become much harder. Please note that mobs also spawns a bit faster with the Gavel update, and so waiting for mobs to respawn will be much more rare.

    So what do you guys think? Let me know if I forgot one crucial thing.

    EST most likely. So 5am for UK, something like 12pm for Australians, and 10pm for the people on the west side of America.

    Seems legit.

    What if it gives ALL players 2x in that certain area, but as long as it is still active, you get 1.5x anywhere?

    Maybe the totem could influence other players within 50 blocks, but the person who casted it could have infinite range with it.

    I'm not sure if that constitutes as game-breaking, but it would certainly eliminate the possibility of grind spots being stolen for the totem.

    Why not have the same Form of Release system as the Daily rewards chest?

    Have an ender chest icon above the skill points, and when you open it you receive 3-4|6-8 totems, and you can access the totems however you plan to implement them. Afterwards, the chest doesn't restock until all of your totems are gone and 24 hours have passed.

    Likewise, the enderchest icon could be used as the storage for the Totems themselves, and it wouldn't restock until the entire chest is empty, and 24 hours have passed.

    yee boi


    It wouldn't help the server in the long run, as less people would buy VIP and rely on current VIPs for the sheep.
