New Troop: Enrager
Troop Concept
This is a “don’t poke the bear” type of troop. It is a well-built unit who wears an animal pelt like outfit, maybe from a creature from the Clash universe.
As its main means of attacking, it is a single target melee troop that swipes/slashes at things with its bare hands.
Uniqueness: A feature that most troops that doesn’t have a favorite target has is when opposing troops/Heroes are near, they will priorities them. This troop will attack any buildings, but unlike the other units, if a defense were to target it, the troop will direct its attention to that defense but instead of just attacking that one building normally, it will become enrage increasing its speed and attack dps by a few percentage. What makes this unit better is that if several defenses/troops are targeting it at the same time, its rage will increase (level of defense does not contribute to the overall rage, meaning a level 1 Cannon and a level 8 Archer Tower will have the same result as a level 8 Cannon and Level 8 Archer Tower.) The rage effect isn’t permanent, once something that attacks it is gone, its rage will reduce, and if nothing is targeting it, its stats will return to normal and it will target the nearest building. Something to also considered, as it can’t target air troops, if it were attack by those units, it will have its stats increased and attack buildings/defenses/ground units with the increased power until the air units are dealt with or the troop perishes.
Attacks dealt to this unit have to be consistent for it to priorities a target and for the rage to stay in effect, meaning Mortars and the Eagle Artillery will not trigger its fury.
Attacking Strategies
One attack strategy would be to deploy a few Giants to distract defenses, have another unit to clear buildings and make and opening then deploy this unit and funnel them straight into defense follow by the rest of the army.
Jump spells or 4x Earthquake spells can help this troop get to defenses quicker. A Rage spell stakes with this troop on its enrage state.
This unit may not work as well with air units, as it is likely to target every other defense that attacks it so it is possible that it will skip Air Defense and the Air Sweeper due to it not targeting ground units.
Defensive Strategies
Spring Traps would be a good counter for this troop on your village, since they automatically target something that is attacking it, a well placed trap between defenses can remove these angry pest.
Strong level walls can also help some as they will be busy trying to get through the barrier to get to the defense, so that could be enough time to take out this unit before it attacks the defenses. Open bases can be problematic defending against these troops, so make use of walls to slow them down.
Well placed defenses may get this unit to separate from the rest of the army.
Info
I will give an estimate for the first level.
Health: ~800. Since this troop will be unlocked at later Town Halls, it will need a decent amount of health, especially when it goes into an area with several defenses so it isn’t taken out to quickly.
Default Damage per Second: ~80. Something that can cause damage but not one shot things when raged.
Movement speed: 16. This seems like a good default speed as it matches some other ground units and it will increase as defenses are near.
Housing Space: 9-12. This isn’t a weak unit so it needs a decent amount of space so people will only take a couple instead of spamming armies with them and they need to be low enough so Spring Traps can take one or two at a time.
Troop Type: Elixir, but I could also see it as a Dark Elixir troop.
Note: For each level, only the basic stats will increase; rage percentage might likely be the same boost throughout.
The name is up for suggestions, but I wanted something to characterize this as a troop that gets stronger when provoked.
