Title Minion Upgrades dont make sense anymore

Description of suggestion
The prices of tier 1 farmers keep going up, while the upgrades are the problem. The upgrades are worth the money up to tier 4 and after that the prices skyrocket while the range is not increasing that much.


Here u can see its not worth it after tier 4

The most important thing from the picture is the last row which tells u the price per block, meaning the total minion price divided by the total range giving u the price per block.


So please change the upgrade prices and stop changing the /shop prices. :)



Possible side effects of suggestion
Good - People actually upgrading past tier 4.

I completely agree.
All these inflated prices are doing, are stopping new players from accumulating wealth like the players who started from day one.
Most people in /baltop now bought farmer minions when they were 200k, the 1m price hike was a bit crazy, but still doable when you have 100m in reserve, but I went out of my way to buy new players little farmer minions they could upgrade,
However, 2.1m for one farmer minion just means new players can't ever reach the top unless they purchase them directly from the foxcraft store at level 5.
Yes, I am aware that I am in /baltop, however I would've gotten much further if I hadn't kept helping other people out (e.g, buying minions for people, buying ranks for players off the /ah, sending money to new players, giving people weapons/etc) I understand I don't *need* to do this, but I am trying to keep people playing because definitely the skyblock community are struggling and they are simply *not* logging in now.

Edit: Also the wool price increase was also ridiculous, as well as the ticks on spawners. Yes I understand some players exploited this, but you could have circumvented this by simply increasing the price of spawners a little bit instead of completely wiping out a new player who can afford a spawner rather than a minion a little bit of income or decreasing the wool price in /shop somewhat (not 0.28?) or simply making it like sweet berries, where wool isn't in the shop that often.

2.1M is a bit insane for a farmer minion. However, a reasonable price considering the economical benefits it can bring you. It might be a good idea to add the accession of a farmer minions in /c like miner minions do.
