I hate when that happens, you should be able to choose whether we want our seeking air mines to be triggered by baloons. Just wasted 2 of them on baloons, and it was totally unnecessary

Might I suggest moving them closer to your core where dragons do the most damage and less loons will reach them?Quote:

I think being able to choose would be a good option, i really dont care about baloonions since my infernos are disco..Quote:

Sorry, I really don't see the point of this poll.
Traps cannot select target!
It's like saying that a single barbarian or a single archer should not be able to trigger a giant bomb.
Well, you win some, you lose some, that's part of the game.
Thats not the same, I dont want baloons to trigger my air mines, it is useless. Would you say the same if they were triggered by minions?Quote:

That's part of the strategy. If you know how they works, you can make your village accordingly.
If you feel you're losing more gold than the protection they offer, don't re-arm them.
Then i get attacked by an army of 12 drags level 4 with 1 lightning for cc troops 2 rage and 2 freeze spells.Quote:

Thats what im doing, but what about the choice of never being triggered by balloons? Seems better to meQuote:

We should also be able to choose what building type each of our troops target as well. No?Quote:

Losing 5 balloons to well place Air Mines can make or break an attack.
We should also be able to choose if our xbow attacks ground or air troops no? Oh waitQuote:

i would be happy if they were never triggered by baloons but i dont think thats gonna happen
Ok well what happens when a raid has only balloons and minions, and no dragons? The seeking air mine would be useless. And it's not like CoC can differentiate between every attack as to wether or not a player has a drag that he hasn't dropped yet. Or if he has one wether it's going to make it to where the balloons made it... Wanting to set it to target drags instead of balloons is nonsense IMO.
Depends on what your defending against
1) Giants/Healers - I'd place them right on the outside close to where an AD that can be taken out would be. Otherwise their is a high chance that the giants will amok before the healer is taken down.
2) Dragons - this depends on your layout. Directly in the core is probably a bad idea as the dragon may be close to death already or it may be too late to make the difference. Placing them like you would for a giant/healer combo is effective but may have to paying out for an attack that would of failed anyway. So ideally, the second layer.
3) Balloons - Near the AD and wizard towers. Balloon users target these first as they pose the biggest problem. I'd say balloons are powerful enough that its worth using the seeking air mines on them. If your just taking dragons and balloons then I'd say the 2cd layer of defenses would be a good place if you are shy about rearming traps.
My opinion - I'd place them near the outside near where an attack aimed at your AD will be. Chances are a full blow balloon or dragon attack will not make you feel that the trap investment would be bad
You can use a balloon to check for air mines before dropping a healer, done it a couple of times. It annoys me to lose mines to balloons but there's also a good side to it as you can see in that example.
More pressing things to deal with, like spell cooking time or inferno towers power. OR THE NEXT BUTTON ISSUE!
