The Saturation Chestplate and Juggernaut armor may be a bit overpriced

[superhalo6]

Say you earn max cookies per round [300] you would need to play for 166[.6] rounds for 49980 cookies for that chestplate [Rounded] and by the time you amassed that much cookies that would be the worth of 22 Luck Of The Lures [Rounded]

Also Juggernaut armor is twice that at 100k cookies meaning you must play 333.3 rounds getting you 99960 cookies

Basically to get the Saturation Chestplate you must spend 83 hours and you must spend 166 hours to get the Juggernaut full armor

[These numbers might be wrong and don't crucify me if they are, I'm human I make mistakes.]

(rounded numbers)

With ironman, max cookies = 800

which means 63
--> 62.49 rounds = 2205 minutes, or 37 hours, which is only 1.5 days

or 126 for the juggernaut thing, 3 days

and without ironman, that's 3.5 & 7 days

With people having 20+ or sometimes even 50 (hi) days ontime, I don't think it's very overpriced. The armor is OP anyway, and once you buy it, you have it forever. So I disagree. Sure, it's extremely expensive, but that's the entire point. You want overpowered armor, you'll have to pay. If the armor would be easy to get, it wouldn't be anything special.

Wait a second. Ironman is supposed to have max range of 800 cookies? Has anyone actually had this happen to them.

Because for me. It's 250 to activate ironman and then a range of the same 250-300 cookies rewarded. So even then it's like earning only 50 cookies per round. Plus if it is actually this mystical "800" cookie amount it's actually not. It would be 550 max per round. You (Wimali) missed a variable.

you pay 250 cookies, but get those back at the end (if you win, obviously)
you earn the normal 250-300 cookies (so 300 max)
you earn 1 supercookie (= 500 cookies)

so that's 800.

The armor can break due to unforseen circumstances [Getting battered by mobs, KOTL and not realising the armor is in danger zone, flooding causing the armor to get highly damaged meaning you have no armor left to get XP so you can repair said armor or any other hazard]

The Saturation piece makes you never worry about Hunger again with no downsides. That's an absolute hell of a buff.

The Juggernaut pieces can nearly double your health, also with no downsides. That too is an absolute hell of a buff.

Whatever alternate universe has those for free or cheap, it's not this one.

There is a downside of not having all that high armor stats and can't be enchanted

Alright, I was wrong. Still, 200% health along with a general 50% damage reduction (compared to 66% and 80%) shouldn't be a weekend project.

According to the Minecraft Wiki a Prot IV diamond armor set would reduce damage 40 - 80% for each piece meaning if you got full Prot IV diamond armor at max would be 320% more damage reduction which is 12k 861 cookies. Significantly cheaper than the price of the chainmail.

I'm going to weigh in here. I think that the buffs should be very high priced. When you're a GM you have nothing to save for, so these very expensive items give me something to work for.
Also, it was mentioned that you keep the armor forever? Can't you die with it, or have durability loss?

Dying would be your own fault & they can very cheaply be repaired using iron so durability isn't really a problem
