Simple Lightning Spell Solution

Hope this clarifies the issue for some people.

Ding ding ding. Another 2 that have seen the light. [granted, it was dahimi that shown me the light in the first place]

The loot bonus is the root of the evil here, kill it. And many things will balance out perfectly well.

So many whiners...

Adapt to lighning on de, or quit

Anyways, this is ridiculously hard to implement because the lightning spell's coding calls for random strikes around a central point. Along with this, you are asking that the random blows are further restricted. Not happening....

I don't know how many lightning kill wizards I thought it was 2, but it doesn't matter because like you said it would be doing the same damage by 1/2 then x2. Example: 5/2=2.5 and 2.5x2=5 😱

when had my de storage full I didn't get zapped once and if I doi don't care it just a bit of de and it not need that much I have tried de zapping before and it is ineffective. cost more than you get and is unsastaniable.

I like to get my Dark Exlir zapped, as it's a challenge.
Plus if they use Lightning Spell to zap your Dark Exlir, and end battle, they lose trophies.
Also If your Dark Exlir storage is 50 percent full, they have to damage half of the Dark Exlir Storage then they'll get the Dark Exlir.

That's just my opinion.

Valid point :)

I'm a pretty maxed out TH 9 (walls and heroes left) and I'm farming in the 1400-1500 trophy range to afford my walls. I get zapped from time to time but im generally ok with it, I attack mostly TH 8s and rushed TH 9s, sometimes badly rushed TH 10s and TH 7s.
Lets face it, these bases can't revenge me and get any profit with their lvl troops and it's mostly on revenges I get zapped. I've dropped down to pick on easier bases and I feel that their revenges are fair, when I'm after DE I'm at a higher trophy count. Got 5 lightnings from a well upgraded TH 10 though, it ♥♥♥♥♥♥ me off, thats just bad manners

I don't know in what trophy region you are but in my experience the zapping stops higher up, had 1 or 2 in crystal+ but it was failed attacks and i suppose they wanted the trophies to sting a little.

Cheers!

We are not whining, we are simply posting what we consider to be problems and proposing solutions. That is what these forums are for, I suggest asking a moderator if you have any queries.

There is no way to adapt to lightning on DE, which is the heart of the problem.

So you are saying that I have 2 options. Adapt, or quit. As there is no way to adapt, I am assuming that you are suggesting that I quit the game? Lol.

I dont see what the problem with coding this is, all that happens it that it does 2x damage to certain targets.

How am I asking that random blows become further restricted?

And as for the 'not happening' bit...that is for SC to decide, not you.
