Plugin is OK, however the support is rather poor or non-existing. Been having issues with the plugin and I've asked already 5 times on the support channels and the support staff only ignores, even after verifying myself on their Discord.
Is a shame as I was planning to get the whole Eco suite, but provided that I can't get proper support for these, I'll have to look for alternatives.
Looking to amend this review after proper support has been provided.
It is a great plugin, and it is complete. Unfortunately it does not take away the fact that support is abandoned, and the discord verification to enter their channels is extremely slow, more than 3 days passed and no one answered. If you have a problem, good luck, you will have to solve it alone, if you can.
The eco plugins are great! Unfortunately it seems that Auxilor has lost motivation and only sprinkles bug fixes here and there as well as plugin sales. There is an entire feature request tab in his discord that gets barely any attention and its pretty rare now days that any of his plugins get good reworks or new fun features.
Do you like having control of basically every aspect of armor making and create new sets for your players to enjoy, in whatever theme your server is in? Look no further then this plugin. Auxilor's stuff just works. With extensive docs at your disposal, create the experience you want people to see with little to no experience in anything. It's really that easy. Plug & play, and if you're feeling creative, limitless options to make your own unique experience.
How should I say something about so great plugin? You just have to try it yourself! Plugin configs are on pro level but so user friendly that even 9yo can get it to work!
Ignore all of those bad reviews, as resolving bugs, recoding major code for function and support so many people just take some time! I remember when I hated Auxilor for a load of updates per day, once I counted 3 updates in one day! But yeah, he cannot just sit at PC and when other mods are giving PR to github with bug/error solving solution, he have to take a look and test it, just then release! So please, when you're waiting for support, give it a time <3
The plugin itself offers many possibilities, unfortunately there is no support here - Other members will help you faster than people with the appropriate role
I consider the eco plugins to be good plugins but sometimes I find some problems that make me change my mind, there is an incompatibility problem with shopkeepers and it cannot be solved and I don't see any other viable alternative.
Best plugin for custom armor sets. Easily configurable like the rest of Auxilor's plugins. Great plugin to give quest or challenge progression, or even tied with a classes system! Can make literally any armor set you want, and it even supports custom models!
Overall this plugin is fun to mess around with however the owner of the plugin does stuff like releasing major code reworks and does not pay attention to the issue tracker to fix things. Me and plenty of others have posted issues for a while now with no fixes to game breaking bugs. It is especially frustrating when the owner releases a major update and then disappears for a week or two...
This plugin is already better than EcoItems, but there is also a problem with equip and unequip sounds. When I set my own sounds for taking off and putting on armor, they do not work.
It's a good plugin, even if it's a little hard to understand at first, but I think it's a great plugin that can help you create very custom armor for your server. 9/10
dont buy here. you will treated like shit and never get support. if you buy, buy on Polymart where it is kept up to date.
Ive had nothing but problems with the eco Library. Nothing is kept up to date on SpigotMC due to a dispute between this author and the website owner. plugins seems to work for a day and break the next. some functions outright do not work. ive extensively tested different hosts, and my own personal pc with just the eco plugin library.
stay far away. there are far better free alternatives for ALL of his library.
What are you talking about? I post updates on spigot all the time - I literally posted 4 different plugin updates on spigot today! What the hell are you talking about?
It's up to date. I announced that you should wait for all updates to be out for it to work with EcoJobs 2.0.0. I gave all the notice I could. If you want, I can give you the resources on polymart too?
Version: 7.145.0
EcoArmors is no different from the rest of the Eco Catalogue... It is cool when it works, but sadly it rarely works.
I've used the entire Eco catalogue for a little over a year and a half; the entire time, they have been constantly out of date and broken due to the owners inability (for no reason other than he doesn't want to, due to a dispute with the owner of SpigotMC) to keep his plugins up to date on this website. If you buy, buy on Polymart. where he keeps them up to date. A disclaimer would be nice. The favoritism on the platforms really sucks for those who buy it here. A single notice about it on the purchase page would be great... but that would hurt sales right?
what's up with the permanent 25/50% off sales? they aren't sales if they are permanent... that's the normal price. I understand you want money, but come on...
But I still would advise against it. even when up to date, they are riddled with bugs and problems that you will receive absolutely no support for in heir discord, in their specific support channels. The only help I've received, was from random community members who wished to do so out of the goodness of their heart.
I have tried using the eco catalogue on different server hosts, and including my own personal server. Though I have experimented with other plugins, I have tested the eco catalogue, in a completely fresh setting and on their own with only the base requirements to run them.
Cool when they work, but they are functional less than half the time. and almost never all at once. Truly terrible when they often work in conjunction... and are supposed to do so.
He curates reviews in his discord, deleting anything bad and only putting up good ones. I have a hunch that this author has payed for bots to review bomb his selling platforms to be predominantly good. Pure speculation, but you read all the reviews and let me know what you think.
Incredible and super powerful plugin to make ugradable armor, sets and boost. Comes with so many functionnalities and you can easily make what you dream!
A Top tier plugin to make custom armor pieces and full sets with different effects and levels. Its a little headache at first when you get to configure it but the support on their discord helped me a lot and now i am a pro with it. Worth plugin to purchase 10/10
I love the plugin and it works really well but theres a few things i dont like about it, mainly playerheads as helmets cant be enchanted (unless im just dumb) but yea, its a staple to have with EcoItems or EcoEnchants
The most powerful custom armor plugin you can find anywhere, loads of armor effects can be made with almost a yaml script language, without any coding, and if you can code - you can make even more wonderful effects with built-in extensions system. 5/5 job!
The plugin is very good and has a good community, the only thing I don't like is that everything is in the same file and cannot be divided into several to have better control of what one is doing since it can get lost in everything in the file.
Simply the best armor plugin all around, you can create custom armor, custom sets, works in the Eco plugins system! Shape it as you want and even come with a default config wich works great! 5/5
Really good for making custom armor-sets for your server, especially as of the most recent update which added per-piece specific effects, making the plugin incredibly versatile with its uses!
Must be a limitation of your server implementation. I'll fix it in the next version!
Version: 7.37.1
This plugin is a really great one for beginner, intermediate, and professional server owners, if you’re looking for a plugin to be able to keep an aspect of vanilla and still have items to keep your players interested, this is an amazing plugin. The performance is pretty great, and their support team is nice and efficient, even if your question isn’t about the plugin itself, the community on the discord is really nice and they share ideas and the owner is pretty damn good coder.
NOT RECOMMENDED, This plugin generates poor performance on your entire server, I made a ticket requesting support and they only asked me to update, something that did not solve the problem either.
The best custom armor plugin I've seen so far. Highly customizeable armor pieces themselves with the items lookup system, very powerful set bonuses with the unlimited effects amount, fairly easy API to make your own effects and anything, and customizeable and toggleable crafting recipes, as well as the ability to upgrade your set to advanced level or level up it's tier, 100% recommended
I don't understand the bad reviews like holy the plugin is near perfection and they keep adding stuff to make your experience better, I've been working on mc servers for years and this is the ONLY plugins (eco plugins) that I like to work on where I don't feel like I wana do something else. I will recommend it the dev and Often to don't forget are awesome !
Sorry to hear that you had a bad experience with the support team, feel free to open a ticket if you have any problems again.
In regards to performance, many performance updates have since been released and it is no longer a problem in recent versions.
Version: 7.5.0
Well, as I told the Dev of this plugin on his Discord, I am going to be totally honest with this review that I will place in each plugin that I buy and that therefore, after using it I have the right to comment, honestly:
1. The plugins work and are great, but for small servers, where lag is not important, on servers with more than 20 players, the lag will be very important and they are not suitable for production servers. (you can check it with spark)
2. I got really tired of the dev continually changing its settings, every 2 months you had to be configuring everything again and that is something that is very tiring, too much if you have many configurations.
3. Update a lot and that is very good, but it is not the same to update, to correct and improve than to rewrite everything and having to change everything again.
4. Recently he merged two of his plugins and for whom we bought them, because "it is the best for us", according to him, when you had made specific configurations and when you had paid. And by the way, the plugin had not even 6 months of having removed it and is already closing it.
In short, it is exhausting and frustrating to use your plugins with so many sudden changes, unsolved problems, because "everything works fine" and because of the lag they cause. Use them on your server with friends, but not for a server with production players. I stop using them immediately find substitutes. This review is my personal opinion and my experience using ECO.
Since you've copy-pasted the same review between three different plugins i'll copy-patse the same response under each of them:
1. Performance is a top priority for me. If I missed any spark profiles you posted in the discord, that's an error on my part, but from what I can see you haven't actually ever reported a single performance issue - and I can't fix something that I don't know about.
2. Over the past few months, my plugins have been getting rewrites and overhauls to bring them up to a higher standard. I made an announcement on my discord about how the rewrites are over and the configs are now in their final form.
3. Basically the same as number 2
4. EcoWeapons and EcoItems merged together into the new EcoItems. That plugin costs more than both other older plugins combined, to make sure that no-one was being cheated out of any money, and to bring the price in line with the new featureset of the plugins. Anyone who bought the older plugins (you included) have been given a license to the new one, free of charge. You essentially got it at a massive discount.
In short, I'm sorry to hear that you've had a bad experience with my plugins - I offered a refund by Koyere declined.
Version: 7.1.0
This plugin is literally being re-coded every 2 months, meaning you constantly have to re-setup your configuration and your armor sets.
The latest recode 7.0.0 has also removed the option for adding enchantments to the armor sets you make.
The developer is not friendly either, and if you say anything negative about his plugin(s), he'll publicly ridicule you on a wall of shame in his Discord with hundreds of players, and even make up blatant lies, he has even put several Spigot staff and md5_ himself on there.
He has also been banned several times on Spigot too for this behavior and is seemingly on his final chance.
So if you like re-configuring your settings very frequently, you enjoy a very unfriendly developer, and you enjoy subpar code quality, then this is the product for you.
I've never been banned on spigot, I've never had any kinds of final chances.
You can still add enchantments to items by default in 7.0.0 - that's absolutely still a feature, if you read the wiki, you would know this.
Subpar code quality? I mean it's open-source, go have a look for yourself.
Casidesigns / Pacific / MineRaze (all the same person) are famously persistent irritations to developers, don't interact with them - seriously
Version: 5.4.4
Plugin works great but can be a bit confusing when you just bought it and are trying to make new sets. But once you get the hang of it it's easy. The support is active and tries to help you the best they can!
If you are looking for something to spice up your server I would 100% recommend this!
Really nice plugin and can be used for a huge variety of things. Configs are split into multiple files to keep it nice and organized. Developer is active & helpful on discord. All in all I recommend this plugin!
I love this plugin so much and it is currently in my number 2 spot on spigot (Number 1 being ecoenchants.) My only problem with it is that you can't craft them ingame. It sounds weird but for some reason, people can't craft them so I had to setup a command block system to do it. I also don't know how to create custom armor so I'm REALLY EXCITED for the Web Editor! Overall, It's great.
Excelent work! EcoArmor and EcoEnchant are the best item modifying plugins for minecraft. Price is too low for this excelent job. Thank you very much for this excelent job.
For the price of this plugin, it's nigh impossible to find another plugin that achieves so much with such ease (to configure and play). The ability to make your own sets with your own color, names (which even support gradients), tiers, effects and bonuses picked my interest and caught my heart in no time
