Lightning rod

Hi all, I've been playing coc for over a year now. People have come and gone but I still enjoy the game apart from one little thing! i will get to that in a moment. I've spent this year playing coc on my iPhone & ipad building my base up and making it good at certain stuff like defence of my resources etc. I farm like everyone does ie attack bases to take the loot. With that said I normally 3 star most bases taking the loot. So here is my growing hate of this part of the game. How come im a TH10 that has spent a year on this game growing my defence to protect my much loved and saved resources to have my dark elixir stolen by a much lower opponent with only lightning spells! To date I've had thousands stolen never to be given the chance to revenge why would I when 1600+ Dark stuff was taken to get back 100-200 de back its just not worth the troops. Plus thats only at 50k I will soon need 200k if I ever make a king or queen lv 40. I can hardly get past 20!

So I looked this up on google. Im not alone in this argument with many ideas to try sort this. Ie the lightning rod. I LOVE THIS!!!!! What a great idea put it next to de storage or whatever else to take away that option. Ah I can switch off my game and not be robbed blind by a level 50 with TH8 taking thousands over night setting me back days.

I've also seen folk at lower TH levels moan "well how am I supposed to get my DE I have no drill" em let me think..... Farm other players by attacking within the base and take it! Not by dropping a few cheap spells on it taking thousands.

Please please please supercell look at these posts and take some notice. This is killing the game for players who have been playing for a long time.

Many thanks for reading.

This should be under "Ideas and Feature Requests".

Yes, I agree that there should be a lightning rod, or at least something to discourage lightning on DE storages.

Now... what trophy range are you in? I heard that if you go up in trophies, to like 1600 or something, it happens less often.

Also, who cares if the people who attacked you only have like 200 DE to give back? I wouldn't. You normally 3-star people; do it to them and make them regret taking your DE.

No one has ever Pikachu'ed my DE storage, but judging by the amount of complaints there are, it's probably really annoying. I shall support your idea!:D

Take comfort that your dark elixir has helped many players level their barb king and upgrade their dark troops are lower townhalls. It is you th10s that allow us lowers to be able to get the 100Ks of DE needed for our upgrades.

That being said, I just raided a th10 and stole nearly 5K DE. God I love TH10s.

Im at 1600-1700 I find this an easy farming area. Your lucky the worst hits ive had yet have been 6k over a night. Pushing my T's up when I log on to see how many attacks ive had over night. Again not 1 made it inside my walls! They can't my defies too good. YOUR SO LUCKY it won't be long till you get hit.

Forgot to post im a LV 104 Town Hall 10 player. So you can see why this gets annoying when hit by level 50 players with spells.

You said it. Why move to a higher town hall? A higher townhall should be progression not a downside!

It probably will, but I'll tell you right now that I won't complain about it like all the others on this forum. Accept it as part of the game, farm more than you lose a night, place townhall outside for shields, or climb up higher in trophies where it doesn't occur as much.

i don't get why you have to be ♥♥♥♥♥♥ off at something as little as getting pikachu'd
as a th 7 and 8 i used that as well im sure u have done it too
i had 16 lightning spells dropped on my de storage last night im not even mad
move on! (seriously not worth argueing about)
after all we are farming them ahahhaha

Im not a low level thats just started. I've played from the start. My TH is outside, I farm at 1600-1700 thats not the problem. The problem is that low level players with no army can take thousands. Of course your not going to complain cause your benefiting out of it.

Give us the lightning rod plz SC so us TH10's can smoke these low level players. As we should be able to as we have put the time in.......

If low level players can find you, then your trophy count is too low.
