    YOU look at the end this time, i DARE you, and you WILL agree that this time it is reasonable, because THERE ISN'T A MAIN END LAND ISLAND, at least with us there was!

    I'd suggest removing the possibility to dig/mine the island wehre you spawn in the end.

    The amount of draconium you can find at the Chaos islands are much greater, and massive holes are both an eye sore, as well as dangerous to some players, who may fall into the void.

    Chaos islands spawn at every (x*10k)x(y*10k) in the end, in a grid pattern, as well as having a chaos guardian (buffed up ender dragon)

    The end does have a bedrock spawn platform.

    you look at n2's main end island, you will see bedrock, and a little endstone and clouds here and there, and thats it

    there is no end on node 2, it ALL was removed looking for ore. Without a better alternative it will keep happening until everyone has what they need to make the gear. The comets and forts are extremity rare, Ive spent hours looking for them so mining main end island is the only viable alternative.

    Didn't mine it out, but would if I needed the ore

    To reset the end every day is not really a solution, we need to add an recipe for this.

    As said, islands have a guaranteed spawn point at every (x*10k)x(y*10k), so -40,000 and +10,000 will be the location of a chaos island.
    I have also found 2 comets just outside the same island, under the "meteor field" that encompasses them, and these fields also hold big quantities of Draconium

    If we say 50k blocks are the barrier, then in just quadrant of the map there will be 25 islands.
    That means there are one hundred islands to fly to, and mine.
    I know your team are as fast as locusts sometimes chugga ;) But I cannot believe that every island is already raided

    Well, a recipe would just make everyone farm the materials, so a bad recipe would just temporarily halt the need for a reset, unless they can be created from simple items, but then we'd have a problem with over-production, or even tps drain.
    Draconic evolution is very end-game. The ability to farm the materials would make it far too OP, even for a laidback modpack like Infinity.

    Perhaps have a new dimension all together just for draconium mining, and dragon killing?
    I can help with WE'ing in a lot more islands, and we can hook that dimension up to the custom portal system. If we get enough islands clustered together, then we can drag out the reset to every 2 months, or possibly even longer

    Apart from all the /god donors, who will have joined and killed all the dragons in no time.

    Of course, there would be a specific area for that. WE does not copy over mobs.

    There are also several ways to spawn in dragons, by regular players. Draconic evolution has the resurrection ritual, and forestry+magical bees can resurrect the egg as well.

    Of course, this is all just a personal speculation, as I need an approval by the higher-ups to even start any design

    Not to mention, it is meant to require you to kill a dragon to get the heart, to be able to properly make the best gear.

    Requiring each player to ressurect a dragon before getting the hearts will make the demand for drac even higher, and if it were a public area to summin dragons, what would happen if a player died while killing it? Would the dragon be auto-killed and all the work gone into spawning it vanish? Or would it be left to surprise the next person who entered the area.[DOUBLEPOST=1424479604,1424479356][/DOUBLEPOST]
    It is intended that you had the heart from the easier vanilla dragon before attempting a chaos or even ressurected one, both of which are harder than the vanilla dragon.

    A need to kill a dragon before getting any draconium is never mentioned in any of my posts.

    I just pointed out the fact that Draconium evolution is end-game. Trying to go straight for it is a bad idea already in the system that we have now.[DOUBLEPOST=1424479977,1424479636][/DOUBLEPOST]
    Did you kill the vanilla ender dragon?
    No.
    It was already killed by day 1, and by that logic, any progress for anyone except the dragon slayer would be ruined.

    However, I have to point out once again, that DE is end-game. Not to sound rude, but the way you point it out, it seems that you think totally new players will go for DE at the very start, and they will get a rude awakening if they are not prepared.

    Killing the vanilla dragon is not needed for progress, however, it is possible to kill chaos guardians, if the players just get good enough gear before venturing into this awesome quest for Drac gear. With all the other mods that exists in infinity, all you need to do is choose another mod to go down, get good gear, and be on your quest for Dragon hearts
