Raiding/TNT

Background info: i used to play factions on woodycraft/gontroller where raiding was the main goal of factions

Raiding is a large part of factions and it feels so far that its difficult to obtain enough tnt for a raid. i feel like the buy price of TNT is too high and the methods of obtaining supplies (gunpowder) to craft tnt for a raid is too difficult. I understand keeping the spawner side of obtaining TNT expensive but i suggest lowering the buy price of TNT to around 4000 per stack. This is a large difference from 16000 per stack but just by changing the price of tnt (excluding cannon supplies/spawners) i feel it will encourage raiding alot more which will also improve the servers entertainment aspect.

I know its an economy issue however ive only played the server a few days and am able to grind millions which takes time, but when it comes to raiding and purchasing tnt those millions vanish rapidly because the price is too high.

A standard leinadarcher cannon (20 stacker) uses more than 64 TNT (1 stack = $16000.
Raiding a base with 10 walls at y=200 from bedrock means that to get through 1 wall, it requires 10 stacks of TNT (160,000) for one wall, so ten walls will cost 1.6million of TNT. Now the servers larger factions may have around 40+ walls which would mean 6.4 million to raid. So unless you raid a base AND get their spawners its most likely uneconomical to raid a large factions. This is where i feel like the TNT lowered price would help increase raid attempts on larger factions as it would be cheaper and be more rewardable, as well as making the fight for Number 1 faction harder as more people will try raiding you.

Thank you for reading my suggestion i hope that you guys have a think about the TNT price or look at the means of aquiring TNT through Creeper spawners. Another suggestion could be allow for the purchase of creeper spawners through the ingame shop at around 2.5-3million but as gunpowder isnt sell-able then the spawners will only be used for crafting TNT but at least the spawners are obtainable from grinding farms etc.

We can try this, for now TNT price was set to $100 (buy) and gunpowder price to $18 (buy) and $9 (sell)
