DISCLAIMER: read everything before commenting this mostly applies to team mode of teams over 2 players.

Look no one likes bow campers and i'm about to present the easiest way to prevent them and why.

SUGGESTION: make the ender pearl cost 20 diamonds so its easy to get to currently almost unreachable bases.

The punch bow costs 25 diamonds right? not that expensive for the item that has the sole purpose of camping with. but the only effective counter (the enderpearl) costs about a huge amount of money one punch bow can be used to camp for 25 diamonds so 1 ender pearl should be the same. BUT THE GENIUSES known as the cubecraft staff team decided that the cost of the only item capable of making the game ACTUALLY PROGRESS should be next to unaffordable without camping a diamond generator at your own base with more punch bows you see what i'm getting at? this dumb idea makes everyone camp.

And if you decide to use the generator in the middle (something I would recommend) you get barraged by everyone and there mother all at a time.
This isn't much of an issue if you can 3v1 like me except for the fact that when your defending a diamond generator from multiple teams you have to constantly move away from it to attack those who want them diamonds.
A very simple way to prevent this hassle is to make the Ender pearl just as expensive as the bow so its just as expensive to camp as it is to override the campers stalemate. because teams can force you to spend stacks of diamonds rushing with godpicks, iron gear, and ender pearles with just a 25 diamond item.

So what I am getting from here is, you want to prevent bow campers and make the punch bow less expensive than before and do the same for the ender pearl?

Changing the price of the punch bow, isn't gonna do anything to prevent camping and if you want cheaper ender pearls, just play op mode.
(Also, why do you want to make the Punch bow less expensive?)

Although I totally understand where you're coming from, Ender pearls are supposed to be a last resort. If they were as cheap as the punch bow, defending your base would be completely useless in mid game and late game. Lowering the price of it is honestly going to completely ruin the pacing of the game.
Also, I can't help but notice that you specifically make "Reduce the cost of the punch bow" a purple colour. Why? It's going to lead people to assume that your suggestion is primarily about that.
Aside from that, why would you decrease the price of the punch bow too? Wouldn't that worsen the situation?
