New dark elixer troop: The lightning wraith

Printable View

Alright so I have another troop idea for you guys, tell me what you think.

The Lightning Wraith

Description: Born from a storm and combined with Dark Elixer to create a creature that wields the power of lightning itself. The Lightning Wraith is able to electrocute two enemies at once and grows stronger when hit by Hidden Teslas.

Appearance: A floating worm looking creature made entirely out of electricity.
At Lvl 1-2 its body is light Blue with glowing yellow eyes
At Lvl 3 its body changes from light blue to dark blue
At lvl 4 its body changes again from dark blue to dark purple.

The Lightning Wraith is a Flying Unit and is unaffected by Cannons and Mortars

Preferred Target Attack Type Housing Space Training Time Movement Speed Attack Speed Dark Barracks Level Required Range

Any Ranged (Ground & Air) 5 5m 28 2s 6 3.5 tiles
(Range of Chain Lightning) : 3 Tiles

Level Damage per Second Damage per Attack Hitpoints Training Cost http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__...ark_elixir.png Research Cost http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__...ark_elixir.png Laboratory Level Required Research Time

1 70 140 240 20 N/A N/A N/A

2 82 164 280 30 40,000 6 8 days

3 97 194 330 40 50,000 7 10 days

4 120 240 390 50 60,000 7 12 days

When the Lightning Wraith attacks, it shoots a bolt of light blue electricity at the enemy (similar to the Hidden Tesla). As it does this, the lightning bolt carries on to one more target within 3 tiles of the damaged building doing half the original damage.

NOTE: If there are no buildings within a 3 tile range the chain lightning is ineffective.

Also I have two ideas.

1. When the Lightning Wraith is being damaged by a Hidden Tesla, its Damage increases by Half of its original value.

Example: At Lvl 1, Damage increases from 70 DPS to 105 DPS when damaged by a Hidden Tesla.

OR

2. The Lightning Wraith only takes Half the Damage from Hidden Teslas.

(Let me know which one you guys think would be better)

Thats all I got at the moment, let me know what you guys think, any feedback/suggestions are welcome.

Depends. Does number 1 stack? If it does, number 2, if it doesn't... number 2 anyway.

I actually just copied it from the COC Wiki haha and yeah this idea was just one little one that I wasn't super impressed with but thought i might as well share it anyway.

As far as trying to fill your camp only with this, the hit points are relatively low (less than a Hod Rider or a Giant, with more training time) while the damage is slightly more it is less than a Wizard. They also move slower than a Minion but faster than a Hog Rider.
The only really interesting part to this troop is the ability to hit multiple targets at once. I've been seeing a lot of ideas posted that talk about attacking multiple targets at once but most are WAY TOO OP, so i tried making my own. If you think I should lower either Damage and/or Hitpoints let me know.

No #1 doesn't stack, and Yeah I think #2 is the better option. I also thought about the idea that the Lightning Wraith would be slightly healed by the Hidden Tesla, taking no damage but converting 1/4 of the damage to hit points. Essentially using your enemies defenses against them.

Thanks for the feedback guys! This troop is a work in progress.

Reason this should be approved

1. Normal elixir air troops currently consist of 3 out of 10. Another de air troop is a must since we only have the minions so far.

2. This is a new concept of applying multiple target buildings, something which we have not yet seen. Since it is lightning element based I suggest the tesla should actually heal the unit as SpicyMooseSpit suggested.

3. As the level 11 walls consist of electricity, the de barracks theme for this unit should fit the wall theme, since this unit consist of electricity too.

Bonus: How about the unit gets healed by absorbing the electricity out of the level 11 walls and at the same time damage it? But I have a feeling this will seriously be oped and deter people from upgrading to level 11 walls, but meh.

In any case this I definitely approved.

Ideas good, but a big worm? First dark maggots, now this...
Nah, it needs a humanoid figure surrounded by mini storm clouds and lightning flashing around it. Not a worm.

Perhaps a slight buff, havent read it too thoroughly though.

When hit by a tesla it should heal slightly, perhaps it should heal 15 health every tesla hit. Just a guess, havent played for half a year, dont know too much about the stats.

But its a good idea, but please. Not a worm.

Yeah I think it should be healed a small amount when hit by Hidden Teslas, but I don't think it should heal from destroying lvl 11 walls since the electricity is only an aesthetic choice, not actually a function.

Sorry for all the worm related ideas, I saw it more of a long eel/tentacle looking creature made entirely out of lightning. Kind of like the Ice Wraiths from Skyrim except made out of lightning.

Only problem with the unit being humanoid looking is that it would no longer be a flying unit.

Thanks for the feedback guys!!! Keep up the suggestions!

Alright well if anybody has some concrete ideas for how it should look, lay it on me.

and if you have pictures, I'd be more than happy to see em.
