What do you want supercell to do? Remove lightning spells?

No. That is not a fix. But here are some suggestions.
Lightening does not steal resource.
Upgrades are available for storages that reduce / eliminate the effect of lightening
Tesla placed by DE storage attracts the lightening meaning no damage is done to DE
Stealing 50% or more of a resource gives a shield to stop the impact of, for example, 3 attacks in a row taking large amounts of DE but not offering a shield
Add a second storage to half the impact...not a fan of that but it's a better suggestion than removing lightening, right...
I could keep going, there are lots of suggestions out there already, some better than others...most are better than simply eliminating lightening
Actually if someone using giants and get my DE i will show respect for that. However throwing lightening and using giant are not same things. Btw lightening spells are not meant to be used on resource buildings. They are for defensive buildings and mostly cc troops.
Let me put it this way...
You can defend against attacks from troops - so if you lose resources because a specific troop strategy bust your base open, then fair enough, upgrade, redo layout, get better cc troops, etc etc.
You CAN NOT defend against lightening on your DE and yet it is possible to lose over 1.5k per DE bolt attack. This seems unfair given how DE is a premium resource and if you were to gem it, it costs more than any other.
I personally dont think this is to do with trophy level, where ever there are people more interested in resources than trophies (farmers), there will be people using multiple lightening on DE. Gold 3 Crystal 1, i've been bolted all the same. Only in the higher 2500 did it almost stop all together but of course this is were people value trophies more than resource...
Hunting cups is a completely different game and one that I dont really enjoy (losing 30 cups because of a network disconnect, and spending most of the day getting them back, no thanks).
Its been said before but if SC made it worth your time to hunt cups from a resource perspective, im sure more would do it but the fact is that you can upgrade your base quicker if you dont play the trophy game...yes, that does present a challenge when your base is maxed, and thats where I'm at now more or less - in need of more content, but that is for a different thread...
This post made me chuckle OP.
Can't you see the irony of a near-max TH10 sitting in gold II crying because they think they're being attacked unfairly?
You are attacking TH7-9 with up to 270 troops, all maxed, with a full choice of potions if you want them, yet you are outraged because you got zapped?
How is what they are doing worse than your strategy? Farming is what it is, it's not meant to be fair. They have 0% chance of defending against you, and your DE is there to be sucker punched when they want revenge. Suck it up.
I'm skipping bases as tough as yours at 2,950 right now.
You know you're far too low. I bet these guys look at your base and cry when you beat them up :)
Put your TH inside your base and don't login for 1 week. You'll be up at 2,500 easy. Any lower and you're manipulating the system to stay in a range which is beneficial to you. Nothing wrong with that but what else can the average guy down there do to hurt you?
No, but I can see how you would make the assumptions. I attack using BARCH+ Gobs for speed - very similar army to that I used at TH9 except I have 20 more. I farm other farmers mainly because despite mytrophy range, attacking ANYTHING lower than a TH9 is not really worth the effort - even if they are abandoned. The odd TH8 if I've been skipping for too long but that is rare. I am here so that I can log off and on frequently and not worry about losing 1-2 storages every time. Not something you can do in Master because of the fact you would be constantly breaking shields because more people carry power armies you'd and drop quite quickly in trophies.
But I digress, this thread is not here to explain farming to you.
If my base was cracked open and MY DE stolen - A L29 queen took it all once - I would not complain. They beat my base, good for them. I am actually "fairly" attacked all of the time. Some are more successful at getting what they wanted than others. I usually give 100k+ elixir just from my pumps...But unlike the TH9 and TH10s that I attack who are actually very well equipped to defend against BARCH, it is not possible to defend against bolts on your DE - that and only that is my point. I'm not sure why you think people have 0% chance to defend against me? My trophy range has very little to do with it, actually. Those who think that because I am in gold mean I attack TH8s and TH7s all day clearly know little about farming and the loot penalty.
