Automated End World Reset

[Rubillus]

I do believe that those who play would be interested to have
The End be reset automatically - let's say each 10 days. But
it could as well be reset every 1st of the month, just like the
Mine World. The question here is whether more frequent
resets will be a benefit to all players who wish to slay the dragon
or will it be an op xp source for few.

I agree with this. Also, a player reports that the End portal has been TNT'd. Not sure if there is another on the map.

The one that is in the main world, or the one in The End where you spawn? Because there are plenty in the main world.

The main world. But I was under the impression that destruction of the main world was against the rules, hence my mentioning it.

Not a bad idea, shouldn't be all too hard to do at the same time as the mine world reset.
I'll have a look into it!

Uhh can't you just respawn the ender dragon now with the ender crystals?

I believe you can only summon the ender dragon if you have killed the ender dragon in the first place as you need end crystals. Only the first kill of the dragon gives you the full experience and every kill afterwards yields less. So, the first person to kill the dragon is the only one to reap the majority of the benefits.

You are incorrect on that point Cuppa, its a ghast tear, ender eye and glass to craft end crystals. If you are trying to gain xp from dragon killing, mob farms are more efficient ways to get xp.

I never said anything about personally wanting dragon kill XP. I'm neither interested, nor have I been to, The End on this server. I was unaware of the ability to craft the end crystals as I normally only build servers and structures in creative mode and hadn't even tried.

My point is that enforcing The End to reset gives players a chance to achieve the items for themselves in their entirety and I was seeking to help the server be fair; most players prefer that. For example, the dragon egg is only available upon the first kill and not subsequent dragon drops (Wiki).

Now, if this isn't perceived as an issue, then so be it. I don't go there, myself, and I would just prefer the server to have a few more, and more active, players. Another way to fix drop problems, and keep the world from resetting, would be to alter the drops using craftbook, or create a recipe using craftbook, even if it means using something such as a dragon head or other, hard-to-acquire, items.
