The explanation given in the update thread wasn't great, so we are really only to make some educated guesses on what exactly this means. The way I understand it is that you, as a TH 8, will get less loot from TH 10s than you do now, but still more than you can get from TH 9s. I think this only affects the loot you get from higher level THs, so you will be able to get the same amount off of TH 6s that you do now, but they will get slightly less off of you than they do now.
I believe it is to help out premmies not get wrecked
I am new to the game but that is how I read it - less loot for attacking town halls 2 or more levels higher than you as this is usually just a farming attack and not a serious attempt on the base. As an example - I am currently only at TH4 and almost maxed out, for some reason a TH6 attacked me and sniped my townhall - taking only 1k gold and elixir. This gave me the option of revenge - on viewing his base I saw an exposed storage behind some level 6 walls - so I loaded up on wallbreakers, a few barbarians and a load of goblins.
I got just over 100K from that revenge and used a very cheap set of level 2 troops - the loot penalty made it more than worth it for me to drop everything I had at the single storage.
I think the main reason for this change is to stop people from using lightning spells on DE storage against higher town hall levels - especially as spells are now looking like costing elixir and will be used more - not even got to spells yet but I am glad they will not drain my gold as I hve already noticed that the two 'currencies' of the game are not equally used.
Added to the level 6 gobs, it looks as if in this update Supercell is trying to make th10 a little easier to be in, which is a good thing, by all means.
The problem SC (rightly) wanted to fix was lightning on DE, especially vs TH10.
Their crazy solution is to reduce the loot % lower THs get vs higher TH :eek:
So now, a TH8 doing a conventional attack on a premmie TH10 will lose out.
SC should have fixed what they actually intended to fix, and made lightning not work on DE stores.
I have no personal axe to grind as I am a TH10 in Master league, and haven't had a lightning on DE since going Master. But I still think lightning on DE was a cheap move that needed stopping.
They aren't removing the bonus or anything, just lowering it to a more sane level. I applaud the decision.
What is the exact change in bonus?
you just had to raise that trophy count. People cried now those new players getting to TH7 won't get their oasis of looting
seriously DE lightening wasn't an issue if you just raise your trophy count
I still get thor-ed by TH 8 noobs at 2400...Quote:
