The Pay-to-Win Problem on Survival

As most of you know, I've been playing ArchMC for a little more than a year now.

I am a Survival main who is also f2p (free to play) which basically means I do NOT spend IRL money on Arch.

I have noticed some very new players who just spend 100 USD IRL and become EASILY one of the strongest people on the server while also having a lot of in game money by scamming. 

The newest 100$ Golden Dragon bundle contains a multi-mask which literally lets you fly like in creative mode. A lot of people have bought it to become very strong. 

The Golden Dragon sword can easily 1-tap Protection IV netherite (dealing almost 60 hearts of damage to it). Some of the older bundles like EOTW get 4-tapped by this sword which is just stupidly overpowered. In my opinion nobody should be able to be the strongest on the server by just spending 100 bucks. 

I understand the server needs money to be able to keep running but it would be way better if there were donor ranks which didn't create this much of an advantage (unlike bundles). People would buy these donor ranks to support the server and not create a VERY unfair advantage like it is right now. 

I know several people that have TP-trapped for multi-masks like cameraman_15_45 who got 4 multi-masks in 1 day from TP-trapping ranked people and sold them for a stupid amount of money (5M-6M each) and became very strong just by TP-trapping.

 Please remove this insanely unfair advantage for people who pay a small amount of money for in game items. 

Sincerely,

fr neon. A couple other suggestions might be to make it so that p2w isnt as overpowered, do crate keys that you can also get ingame, and make it so that you can buy bundles + ranks in game with both ingame money for f2p, and irl money for p2w. (Except make it like 50% cheaper ingame)

I have a suggestion to solve this problem: Weaken custom enchants. Even though a number of players may not like this, custom enchantments which are unfairly bought are ruining the system. Maybe paying 5USD for access to /enchanter or something like that would help. Furthermore, some people I know are rage stacking and they don't get caught for some reason.

sigfig i think thats pretty smart. 

half the reason why rage stacking is banned is because enchants like Dem rage iv allowed it to be so Op in the first place.

also its kinda dumb to buy some bundles because 90% of the time the next month's bundle is like 2x better

2025年6月15日下午1点46分

honestly golden dragon is way overpriced, you are basically paying $75 for a pet, the golden dragon pet is op but not that op.

also a sword with sharp 5 dmic rage 3 used well can 1 tap neth prot 4

oh im also f2p and i was able to take a golden dragon in 1v1s, (shersher) with op zeng gear (no mask) and a dragon sword with no mast enchant, skill can close the gear gap is some situations, (ex op zeng can beat golden dragon)

Honestly I don't have much of a problem with Survival P2W anymore. A while ago I used to hate it and made several forum posts against it, but I've grown to not see it as a gargantuan problem. Mostly this is because you only have to wait a bit longer before the survival reset happens, meaning there won't be much of a P2W advantage.
