Improve the pekka

The pekka is the worst and most useless troop in the game because pekka only gets 25 of your housing space to go around the base and destroy outside buildings and to improve it first of all give his spin back because he used to spin like the valqirie and give him area splash and also make him target defenses I know everyone will say he will be too OP but there will be hidden teslas level 8 and will do 100 X 2 = 200 damage per second so for me it's not OP it's strategy might be using 8 and 40 archers and 4 jump spells and 1 rage spell and that might do a 60% to a maxed base so that would bring them back to the champions because I used to use pekkas when I was level 50 and when I started to get too many fails against bases like level 60 I stopped using them when I was level 60 and that's when I start using balloonions and I even destroyed a base with 2 inferno towers and 3 X-bows and wow pekkas wouldn't of done even a 30% with 2 inferno towers so I hope pekka gets improved

Clear the outside building then send pekkas in only stupid people don't know that

Being rude to people is not tolerated, you should edit your message to avoid being banned in the future

This would still be way OP. Even with the lvl 8 tesla. ;)

First of all don't be rude so please edit your message and anyways pekka is super weak and expensive even if the outside buildings are cleared because they can go to a storage for example and a level 7 hidden tesla is hitting so pekka is losing 160 damage and he dies

If they are so useless then why does the gowipe strategy work so well? The pekkas do heaps of damage..i love them

They're a bit disappointing. They can't tank, can't stay on target, if they wander into a Tesla they're fried, and they make lousy CC troops. There are better ways to spend 25 housing spaces and 42,000 elixir.

Pekkas may have been the Ultimate Rage Super Level 10 Mac Boom Diggety when the game was first released and Town Hall EIGHT was the maximum, but in a world of now four, level-7 Teslas; three level-3 x-bows; the Big Troop Killer, Inferno Towers; and the Dark Elixir Army, there's just no room for the PEKKA.

So, yeah, maybe revamp/restat/reconsider/remodel. This is the MAX LEVEL barrack troop, man. From the day I first loaded the game and made my first Barbarian, I was looking up to this thing, thinking how awesome it would be to finally have one. It's LEVEL TEN, it's supposed to rock harder than the Dragon.

I'm Town Hall 9 now. I use Dragons, people who raid me use Dragons. I rarely see PEKKA. Know what happens to people who come at me with PEKKA? They leave my village with no stars, negligible loot, and curses about PEKKA not living up to expectations.

Pekkas don't necessarily need buffing - but they do need a reduction in build time to 30 minutes. They were only worth 45 prior to teslas getting x2 and infernos and all the point defense buffs.

Pekkas are great the way they are. I was playing horse with my friend and he dared me to 100% a th7 base using two pekkas and two dragons. I did it and it was quite easy. And no i didnt attack a gemmer xD

I think they need some sort of advanced AI? Possibly make a preferred attack type like target splash damage defenses only?

As long as you clear out outside buildings and make a path for pekkas to go in the center, they are pretty much unstoppable with a rage spell and wizards to support. Someone posted this earlier that they should create a mini rage spell effect around them - like a morale boost for being led into battle from the strongest troop (credit to whomever came up with this idea, I can't remember who). I think then we would see more pekkas being used. It would also be nice if their AI could be improved so that they are more likely to attack that one wall you couldn't break than to circle around the base and take out stupid stuff.

Pekka aren't unlike a sniper rifle in a first person shooter. They are High damage, low fire rate and when used by the right hands, impossible to beat!

People expect pekkas to be easy to master and easy to wipe anything with, the reality clearly is that they aren't. Your surrounding troops, spells and amount of pekka needs to be roughly exact to be used effectively. It takes a while to find the right mix. But as a lvl130 with lvl4 pekka i can safely say from experience that with the ability to target defences, they would be way to OP!

I wonder how hard it would be to create a code that makes them target the center of the base/map for attack path?

am currently boycotting pekkas by not upgrading the barracks at all. I have swerved them for now and I don't see myself getting them in the near future.

Notice: TH SEVEN. A Town Hall Seven can only have two air defenses and two, low-level Teslas so of course two dragons and two pekka could run it over. Could you try that on a TH8 with three, level-5 air defenses and three, level-six Teslas? No, no you can not. And that's just at TH8.

Go send two Pekkas after my Town Hall and watch what happens. There's a surprise for them there and it isn't a pretty blue butterfly.

If there's already a path right to the center, and the stupid stuff around the outside of the base is already gone, then you no longer need the Pekka. You could send a dragon, or a healer and 11 archers, or 5 Hog Riders, or 3 Valkyries and a Barbarian, or 25 Barbarians or 25 Goblins.

You're probably right, I'm sure after many raids of spending 84,000 for 2 Pekka to take up 50 housing spaces I'm sure you'll learn the ins and outs of placing them just right so they go where you want them to go, and that would make you kind of a badass. It's just that none of that elixir-expensive, time-consuming stuff is necessary. Because I have Dragons. Dragons rule. Pekka should be 9 and Dragons should be 10.

How can pekkas be powerful???? Even if the outside buildings are gone you send your pekka inside and a level 7 tesla could spring up or the inferno tower could just frie it and 25 troops are gone if very sure that the ones that are posting in this thread saying that they are already really good are the TH7 because for the last troop of the barracks it should be the best super troop not a stupid useless troop that eats 30000 elixir and 25 troops then supercell just wasted their time making that troop because supercell come on that troop looks so cool and you made it a piece of junk is it so hard to just make him target defenses if that gets added the pekka will return to the champion

First off, if they target defenses it would be the most OP troop ever. Second, it isn't a useless troop. When used correctly with golems and wizards it can three star many bases with a freeze spell or two. Pekkas used to be pretty much the #1 strategy for trophy pushing in the game. And the people who say pekkas are good aren't th7, they are probably near maxxed th10 with level 4 pekkas who actually know how to use them. Also remember this for life: it's better To have a bunch of people think you're an idiot than to open your mouth and confirm it.

If they target defenses they wouldn't be OP because inferno towers would frie them and also hidden teslas and there will be a level 8 telsa soon and pekkas are not useful in the golem strategy you could use 6 wizards instead and also don't be rude so please delete that

BAM+PEKKA in cc+Barbarian king makes great corebreak farming army, just make sure to clear out the side buildings. Targetting defences would make her way too OP.
PS: Punctuation is your friend OP
EDIT: The infernotowers and tesla's are NO PROBLEM AT ALL when you use PEKKA correctly. Trust me, I use them a lot, and I have experience with them beating TH 9 and even 2 starring a normal TH10 (not premmie not max), and I'm TH8

Pekka isn't good for farming because he eats lots of your elixir and BAM is way better than pekka and teslas do like 160 damage to pekka so it kills him like in 20 seconds also inferno tower and how do you win with pekka do the bases you attack have level 4-7 teslas do they have inferno tower what trophy range are you would you try to use pekka in crystal / master / champion ? I don't think they are good balloons can do a 100% to a base with 2 inferno towers and 3 X-Bows ( low air defenses but anyways 2 inferno towers are pretty strong ) balloons can get you to 2800 pekkas can only get you to 2000 and that's it if pekkas target defenses are OP the. I guess supercell will bring the teslas to level 8 which

Umm. no... Its like using a drag. you clear the outside buildings and use wall breakers to guide it.
LOL and not only do u want it to go for defenses (TOO OP), u want splash damage only. learn to use a pekka properly

I guess supercell will bring the teslas to level 8 which pekka will be fried by 200 damage per second I don't think pekka will be surviving that damage anyways you should have to bring jump spells to allow pekkas to fly like a dragon raid but with no spells but seriously for the last troop of the normal barracks it should be better than any other troop its just a waste of time and elixir to upgrade your barracks to level 10 the only reason I upgrade them its to train more troops at the time

Then tell me how to use them properly clearing the outside buildings then placing the pekka then the pekka goes inside then a tesla springs up and then it gets fried and 25 troops lost

1)I don't need elixir, I got everything maxed with it
2)just destroy those teslas using other troops
3)I use PEKKA in crystal all the time, giving me great wins
4)avoid inferno if you hate them so much, they do the same to drags, golems etc
5) punctuation is your friend, it makes ppl read better...

New person plays the game and says
Barracks 1 : wow these barbarians are pure destruction and cheap
Barracks 2 : wow archer can destroy buildings inside walls
Barracks 3 : a troop that gets me lots of recourses
Barracks 4 : wow this troop is awesome it goes against defenses and are indestructible
Barracks 5 : wow this thing blows walls with only 1 hit
Barracks 6 : wow a unit that isn't stopped by walls and can't be targeted by cannons
Barracks 7 : a very strong archer with massive damage
Barracks 8 : wow this thing heals my units such as my giants and makes my giants invensible
Barracks 9 : wow a super troop that made a 100% on a th7
Barracks 10 : a big and expensive barbarian that keeps on destroyng useless buildings outside the walls and that hidden tesla is just killing it in just a few seconds what a fail I won't use this troop ever again
Dark barracks 1 : wow a flying archer
Dark barracks 2 : wow giants that jump over walls
Dark barracks 3 : she is pretty useless on attack but she defends really good she took down 10 barbarians on one hit
Dark barracks 4 : wow a really big giant that takes like 2 minutes to kill
Dark barracks 5 : wow she is impossible to kill because she keeps on creating more skeletons its like if I had 1000 barbarians on my army camp


So as you see pekka isn't good at attacking or defending its the worst troop in the game

Its hard to not start off this reply with names so DUH will be used instead. Not one troop in this game really stands alone unless you send mass volumes. However look at all the combinations, bam barch, giant healer, wizard healer, and blah blah the story goes. Use mass pekkas or like other patient people use 3 pekkas wall breakers(for steering) and archers to clear everything outside prior to deploying the pekkas. AND if you attack bases at or below your own lvl you will 3 star most bases. Good day...
