I always hear on forums how valkyries are really bad, and they need to buff them in the next update. But why? Bad dps, HP?... Awful AI? Annoying sounds they make? (It is kinda annoying lol)

Well for starters Cost, Time, Slow and they just dont fit into an army comp... Other than taking out cc troops they aren't very goodQuote:

I see. Not wasting my precious DE for those things then...
I have never used valks...Im not even sure exactly why? What is their USP exactly? Am I missing out on some secret?
I actually like giving my mini and my mini-mini Valks in their CC for defense...

They cost too long & take up too much space.
Might be interesting if they changed them to focus resources like Goblins and lower the training time.
Make sure they still focus cc troops.
What would really make them awesome is to change the AI to match giants........ but i guess they wont do that.
Then we'd have Hogs 2.0 (not really but you get my drift)Quote:

I've used the Valkyries and honestly feel like if the above issues were addressed they'd be viable. When I fully maxed all DE upgrades at TH8 I tinkered with her. She has power, but she's far to expensive for what she can deliver. Even when I switched to making her a clan donation she was zapping my DE way too fast.
Since I am a farmer and I hate long build time/costs this is my proposal!
1) Reduce her cost to 90-100 DE - that would mean 10 valkyries would cost 1,000-900 and that is an amount that can be reasonably reclaimed plus is just a little above a Hog rider in cost per housing space
2) Reduce her training time significantly - personally I feel 4 minutes would be great because it would put her just above hogs for time per housing space but even 5-6 minutes would be a vast improvement.
Personally I think SC should start here and maybe give her a 5th level. I've used her and she's nothing to sneeze at, she's just not worth the wait/cost
At least i'll have valks when they're buffed!
