Why am I penalized for a successful defense?

I wake up, open clash, and see that my base successfully defended yet again, but unfortunately due to the 30% destruction rule, my clan castle troops are now gone, I have no shield, and I'm vulnerable for a secondary attack before I have time to re-arm my clan castle (I'm sleeping). This is extremely frustrating, and shows that there's no incentive to build a base for maximum defense, as without getting a shield for your efforts, and having your cc wiped out, I usually get follow-up attacked shortly after for total destruction. This is deep sea diving.

Why am I not rewarded with a shield for a successful defense of a full army coming at me and getting less than 30%?

redesign ur base to get minimum 30% easily until SC fix this :(

You are rewarded with trophies :)

No profanity please it's a global platform

And its a good topic to debate. But a good explanation can be that if people start getting Shields for such low % attacks then you just see how many players will be available to be attacked cause there are many low% attacks in lower league just think

I'm not concerned with trophies. I'm concerned with loot.

Flashback to predecember days. (way before actually). Sometimes when I tried to do a small push because I was too far out of my trophy range for farming, I put my th inside.

Good for trophies. Terrible for loot. Used to get 3-4+ below 40% raids until finally i was sucked dry.

I don't really know what you're trying to say. I have no control over the % an attacker gets against me when they deploy their full army, but if I successfully defend the attack, I should get a shield, regardless of %. Otherwise, where's the loot incentive to build a great defensive base? There is none.

I hear ya OP and it is lame. Happens to me quite often. Staying in a higher trophy range usually helps.

However, after many of goblin knifes, i would like it lowered to 25%. I've left so many shieldless with GK that's I do feel bad when it happens nowadays. Usually end the raid at 27-29% range. I could stop using the attack, but I don't feel that bad.

Basically, it's so that more bases will be available. Without the rule a lot of bases will get shields from attackers who are just milking collectors or dropping trophies.
