Trraps : Re-arm costs are too high

Hello everyone,


The re-arm costs of traps is a bit too expensive.
Traps are to protect resources, Since 85+% ppl are farming, most would prefer to protect gold. Good bases have well based traps to lure troops and trigger the traps. But the cost to rearm is too high.


Total cost to rearm all traps : 180.8k Gold !!

If there is an All out attack which triggered all my traps and win a defense and protect my resources well, i still have to shell out 180.8 k Gold to rearm all traps !!!

Now the whole logic to have traps to protect resources does not make sense here !
I suggest, league bonus should go to defender for a defense win. Atleast would cover up re-arm costs to a certain extent

What are your thoughts on this ? Do you think current system should continue or some changes should be incorporated to make traps costs more sensible.

Here is a snap shot for maxed traps for TH9 :

Traps	Level	Re-Arm Cost per unit	Number of Traps	Total Cost to Re-arm
Giant Bomb	3	17,500	4	70,000
Bomb	5	800	6	4,800
Spring Trap	1	2000	4	12,000
			Total Ground	86,800
Seeking Air Mine	2	17,500	4	70,000
Air Bomb	4	6000	4	24,000
			Total Air	94,000

Traps are there to protect TH and DE and maybe even elixir.

I'll admit, I paid no attention to the re-arm costs while at TH9 and just maxed them like everything else.

I was hit for 100% by Hogs once after this and it cost me well over 100k gold. Because I'm mainly farming this has happened only once so I'm ok with it.

It could be a different story though when I start pushing on Forum Elite II in a few weeks. I've already decided not to do big upgrades during this time so will have extra gold spare in reserves.

I have put bombd and giant bombs in a corner so they do not get triggered. Too expensive to re-arm them.
I'd rather gamble and take the chance of losing a gold storage. The traps have little to no effect anyhow, except for air bombs against minions and spring traps against giants.
I wish I could just get rid of the other traps like sell them or something like that.

I only rearm spring traps, my big bombs are in the corner never to be rearmed.

Honestly i never really looked in detail about re-arm costs until today.
Where i won a defense (kindof except for TH) and had an all attack with 41 hogs + few other troops !

Overall i lost 900 each of gold and elix from TH and all my resources were untouched !!!

But the creeper triggered almost all bombs and I had to spend 90k on re-arming.
It does sound ridiculous. Whats the point i have a best design with such high maintenance costs ?

Keeping one storage near exposed TH makes much more sense than Re-arming all traps, Atleast keeps economy a little hale and healthy

What would happen in your base if the exact same army attacked you straight after?

Would having the traps inactive cause them to win more than 900 of each?

That's supposed to happen. Of you don't want high re arm costs then don't upgrade your bombs

They dont bother me coz since when i re arm them and collect resources i get double the amount used to re arm

Yeah usually I get way more because I re arm then I collect. But I guess in the long run it takes away profit from you
