Server big, much bigger than when Star was coded, up the exp drop so that the first 2/3 players to the star receive the exp drop instead of only the first one to the star. 

 

This would give players a more dynamic skilling experience, offering multiple options to train a skill promotes diversity which is important in 2019. 

 

(Also nice for ping disabled players who lose solely based on ping half the time.)

 

*Could lower the exp slightly for balance*

Pros 
- Exp

- Don't KMS mining for 500 hours on a pserver

- Make mining suck less (good)

 

Cons

- none

- might take a few mins to code

Another option could be to increase the duration of shootings stars since there are more players now.

 

I don't mind additional exp drops as long as it scales down. In other words, the first person would get the most experience and the people following the first would still get an experience drop but not as much as the people who came before. This would keep the incentive of finding shooting stars, just like it is now.

I agree with @Jisoo, increase the star duration! Support on that.

Increasing it would be not bad of an idea. Would like to see how this suggestion goes. Neutral.

I'd say keep it as is. Even though there are more players it still is gone in 30 seconds or less lol. Plus mining isn't even that bad so... No support

Are you referring to accounts with 40x exp or all accounts? I can understand why you wouldn't think mining is a chore if you've only played 40x.

Would love to see the distraction and diversion have tweaks made to it, it seems a little outdated if you asked me.
