Lower the percentage bar to get a shield from 30% to 25%

I have a slightly offset town hall (lvl 9), in that it is in the compartment next to the center compartment, if you know what I mean. This means that I quite often get town hall 8 pushers attacking my base, and at least twice a week they end up getting my town hall, but just below 30%, which prevents me from getting a shield.

Add to this that they also kill my cc troops and you can imagine this being very frustrating.

I personally don't see a problem with lowering the bar to 25%. It still prevents town hall sniping, as well as allowing people (like me) to be a little bit more creative when it comes to base design, because having nothing but centered town halls would get quite tedious imo.

Before you comment that I should just put my town hall in the center, there's no room there, because that's where my DE storage and the appropriate defenses are. I'd rather not have both my DE storage and my town hall in the same compartment.

Cheers.

The game is full of trade offs. I really don't see them lowering the threshold because you want to stick with a design that allows lower townhall players to get a star. You need to find a way to protect your dark elixir and your townhall.

Myeah of course the game is about trade-offs, but that doesn't mean that we can't tweak and balance those trade-offs. Isn't that what these forums are for?

I'm not saying we should completely remove the treshold, I'm simply suggesting to lower it by 5% percent. This doesn't abolish its original purpose - prevent town hall sniping- but it does give people more leeway when designing bases.
