Using Dark Elixer to "DARKIFY" you're troops

So heres an idea, and tell me what you guys think about it. The ability to "Darkify" you're regular Elixer troops, once they reach their max level. There would be an option with the regular barracks to use Dark Elixer, combined with the regular elixir to slightly increase your troops stats, and give each one a special ability. Here are some of the ideas I had with this.

Barbarian: ability to slowly regain health over time

Archers: Increased range

Goblins: ability to steal a small percentage more resources than what is posted as the "Available loot"

Giants: If a giant(s) is within range of a defensive building, that defense will only attack the giant(s) before attacking other troops

WallBreaker: ability to destroy two sets of walls before being destroyed in the explosion. (this is negated if killed beforehand)

Balloon: drops a wall breaker or skeleton every 5 seconds

Wizard: ability to teleport a single troop past walls every 10 seconds (only used if the troop is attacking a wall, cannot teleport itself or other wizards)

Healer: Enrages units instead of healing them, similar to a Rage Spell but not as potent

Dragon: only takes half damage from inferno towers.

PEKKA: increased movement speed when being attacked by Hidden Tesla, and increased damage to heroes.

Let me know what you guys think, this is honestly a very abstract idea and if you guys have better ideas for the special ability of a troop let me know.

So do I. It would be a great and powerful feature to have.

I love this idea

Awsome Idea! I would like this to be put in the game!

I don't have high level troops(level 3:() so it wouldn't affect me but the game would be a lot cooler with that.
My only suggestion is to change the appearance of each troop a little as in they look more evil or become darker.
either way, amazing idea and it would change the game a lot.

Yeah I've already thought about adding a darker twist to the appearance of each of the troops. Thank you guys for the feedback! Like i said if there are any ideas for abilities for some of the troops let me know!

Great idea i think more stuff like this needs to be done to keep the game going

Dude, this would be one of the coolest clash of clans things.

I love the idea though there are a few things i'd change.

1. Instead of the dragon taking less damage from infernos the dragon
could spray it's attack damaging multiple buildings.
2. The healer should do both, create a rage spell like effect and heal troops,
not too effectively so it wouldn't be op.
3. Instead of dropping skeletons the balloon could drop cluster bombs,
same damage but a HUGE splash radius.

Love the idea though.

Thanks for the Feedback! My only problems are

1. if we made both the dragon AND balloon have large splash damage, it would really be a "Special" ability because another unit would have the same power, secondly i think the Dragon already does enough with its splash damage, imagine if someone had a Dark Dragon in their Clan Castle, it could wipe out and entire army with one attack. Same with the balloon.
HOWEVER, what if we made the dragon catch buildings on fire, doing a small amount of damage over time. So even if the dragon was killed attacking a tower, the fire would continue to do damage for about 10 seconds.

2. I dont think the Dark healer should heal AND rage because that would already be over powered. I suggested it the way i did to add more strategy into the idea. Would you rather have a troop that heals? or one that enrages? Its the same concept when deciding what Spells to use

3. The balloon was an interesting idea, i proposed dropping wall breakers every 5 second because while the Balloon is a flying unit and is unaffected by walls, your other troops aren't. This would help clear a path for your ground troops, while the balloon attacks from above. As it is I don't see many players at my level, or lower, using Balloons that often, so I wanted to add something that would POSSIBLY make it more useful. I do like the idea of adding more splash damage but I dont think a cluster bomb is quite what Supercell is going for.
What if on top of it dropping Wallbreakers every 5 second, we increase the Damage it does upon death?

Thank you guys again for the feedback! Understand that if I disagree with something you say, it is only because I am trying to figure out the best and most reasonable improvements for these ideas.

Think of lower levels they would get destroyed if this came in so would higher bases they could get destroyed by an army of darkified pekkas or dragons or horde of barbs other than that creative idea

Nice idea. Two things I would change: balloons having a movement speed of 12 instead of 10 as their special ability, and an entirely different one for dragons. Inferno towers will still kill them at an extremely fast rate even at half damage, plus they attack slowly so they may not even get an extra attack or two in by the time they're killed. I'd suggest taking only 80% damage from air defences or something.

That's not a bad idea, i hope it gets in the next update even though my troops are not maxed but oh well still a really good idea

i like this idea, using exiler and dark exiler to train troops!!!:D:D:D

So i was thinking about what you would have to do in order to acquire these Darkified Troops.

My first idea is to upgrade you're barracks to lvl 11, which would cost about 100,000 Dark Elixer (let me know if thats too much) and you would unlock all the Darkified Troops.

My second idea is to make the process more gradual, like upgrading the barracks from lvl 1 back to 10 (only in this case it would be from 11-20)

Lvl 11: 1,000 DE - Dark Barb
Lvl 12: 2,000 DE - Dark Archer
Lvl 13: 4,000 DE - Dark Goblin
Lvl 14: 6,000 DE - Dark Giant
Lvl 15: 8,000 DE - Dark Wallbreaker
Lvl 16: 10,000 DE - Dark Balloon
Lvl 17: 20,000 DE - Dark Wizard
Lvl 18: 30,000 DE - Dark Healer
Lvl 19: 40,000 DE - Dark Dragon
Lvl 20: 50,000 DE - Dark PEKKA

Let me know what you guys think of this. Thanks for the comments!

Good idea but I have to correct you: Darkify "your" troops not you're.

haha I apologize for my failed grammar.

I think this is an awesome idea, I think it would just be awesome to Darkify and change the ability, I voted and would love to see the dragons ability change, so I really hope they implement this into the game sometime.

I think its a great idea,but i really didn't get your idea for giants ability
but its great,hope supercell accept it.thanks.

Well, i think is not a really good idea if it will not increase the camp space (can be OP then)

But my suggestion is: When all troops are helaed, the healer will attack thinks. This way, after u destruct all enemy defences, healer will be more (i think) usefull then putting a rage.

Goblin: Very fast movement speed, does 3x damage to recource buildings.

Giant: in addittion to the other skill (which i really like) it could either
hit over walls or be able to throw your gobs to te enemys storages or other troops over walls.

Dragon: Faster movement speed and ability to set buildings on fire, the fire will damage
the building and troops too close.

Balloon: Instead of dropping a skeleton every 5 seconds it could release 2-5 skeletons
while falling (as the crew if the falling balloon) and increased movement speed

The reason why i want to ad movement speed is the adrenaline rush/rage which they feel after getting
the power from dark elixir.

I love the idea but i think that it wouldn't be balanced if it would only be available to high level players,
i'd say that you'll need a separate building to unlock Darkifying options. The building would be available
as soon as you get Dark Elixir (TH7).

Love the idea, kerp up the good work!

I like the idea for the Goblins and Balloons, as far as the Giants, I don't think they should be able to throw tier 1 troops only because that would make the Wizards special ability obsolete. (Which who knows, maybe I need to change the Wizards ability) Plus it would be difficult for SuperCell to make that work out.

the Dragon ability I want to change to doing more splash damage and fire damage over time. I'll post an updated list for abilities soon once i compile the suggestions.

For anybody else who has suggestions let me know! I'm seeing a lot of votes to change the abilities of a lot of the troops but I need more info on what you guys want.

Also the only reason I suggested that these troops be unlocked at a higher level is because SuperCell rarely makes updates specifically for lower levels, only because it's the higher level players that are running out of things to do, and SuperCell needs more updates to keep high level players interested (and paying them money) Im only TH lvl 8 so I wouldn't even have this option for awhile but I still think this would be a relatively interesting dynamic to add into the game.
