Hey guys, just like most threads, not sure if this idea has been suggested before.
But my idea is rather simple.

So it all started off when I was playing Holiday Resort, I realised whenever I go into the water away from corn, there's always people swimming away with full iron or full chain. It's kind of OP when you can get so much gear from "starting chests".
I thought of an idea, called "Corn Chest Tier" or something like that.
The idea is, that the cornucopia chests have their own tier.

Because I see a lot of people with stone swords killing people right away getting pretty much every item they want in two seconds, maybe add a wood axe or wood sword only to corn so you would have to really fight for gear at the beginning.

Maybe gold armour at the most, not iron armour as iron armour is pretty OP considering for a quick "starting chest".

Also no diamonds, just iron. I think this would be good so it would reduce OP items like the diamond sword, and you would have to search chests and actually hunt down people for stuff like that.

These are just examples, I think they should do this because it reduces the INSANE amount of gear people can get just from getting one "decent" chest at corn.

Any ideas, or flaws you'd like the explain about this idea, please reply and thanks for reading :)

EDIT: When refill happens they should all remain tier 2. Only because they aren't "starting chests".

I like the idea of the corn chest tier, but I think the items you are suggesting would completely ruin corn to the point where no one would want to go.

The good items have to stay there, but they just have to be rarer. Iron armour and diamonds should still be able to spawn, just with a low chance of it. Gold armour and Chain armour should have higher chances of coming up in corn.

And I agree they should remove the stone sword in the corn tier, or at least greatly reduce the chances of it spawning. Since it takes 4 hits with a stone sword, it can be annoying to get killed by. Which is why wood swords or axes or stone axes could be more fair, since they take more hits to kill someone but they aren't useless.

On the other hand, you could say it's good that we can get OP gear because you can't really abuse it that much at the beginning of the game. Sure, you might get a few kills, but that's just how the game works. I like that.

I'm sort of both ways with this suggestion. I don't think it's amazing, but I don't think it's awful and I'd accept it if this became part of the game.

Corn I a high risk, high reward zone. You can get great stuff or get instantly murdered. I say nup.

Hmmmmmmm, i say nah, keep it as it is. I mean, it is a risk and shtuffff. But the corn-specific chest idea is actually pretty good. Can you elaborate more on that?

I vote yes for anything that makes players less OP.
Ok lets just take away the chests all together.

I don't see how no one would go. These proposed changes would still be a step up from tier ones, and a lot of people still ran at breeze island when those corn chests were a 50/50. I'm sure quite a bit of people would still go to corn if it only offered tier one chests.

I like the idea because it reduces the initial luck factor.

I think the cornucopia should be a place to get good stuff, because it's essentially luck based. It's a risk, and if you're risking your life for less stuff, I don't want to go. I went to corn on breeze because there was that chance I was going to get a tier 2. I would've gone straight to my route, because it's pretty popular anyways, if it was all tier 1.
