Some may say that you using de troops on a th that has not progressed that far is unfair. Some may say that thaking lvl 5 giants/ lvl 3 healers and a few gobs to a th7 and taking 200k each and 137 of his hard earned de is unfair.

Suck it up butter cup

Some dude did me just is I stated. I lured and killed his bk and cc. Then i zapped him for 500 de

As I said before, attacking lower town halls encourages them to progress to higher town halls. If they couldn't get attacked by better people, then they'd never upgrade their town halls. It isn't unfair though because there's a solution: upgrade your town hall and defenses and if you don't have the patience just gem it! There is nothing to defend against zapping hence why it's unfair.

Sorry it's hard to respond intelligent to a dumb argument.

Let's see. You think it is unfair that people can use lightening spells on de storage and receive loot. 4 lightning spells take 2 hours to make. Someone uses gems to get them quicker.

Let's throw around other stupid ideas. No gemming the spell factory. This would cause less zapping!!!!! See, my idea is just as dumb as yours. Sorry, you are to much of a rager to not understand how to live with something that was intended by SC. Go play Hay Day. Seems like your only solution to not end up with blood pressure issues.

I agree with you. In TH 7. The only way to get DE easliy is zap. So, we zap.

TH 9 & 10? They should not zap cause they have the troops/spells to get to the loot withput zapping.

OP, think about low level THs that can't get the DE consitantly without zapping...

No. Because we aren't good enough to take DE from other players? No. It's because we're being hit with something that is impossible to defend against, zapping. This makes it difficult to save up DE, especially in large amounts for big upgrades (Especially with 1 gem spell factory boosts!).

The Problem: The bottom line of why zapping is unfair, is the fact that it can't be defended against. What's the response people get now when they complain about hogs? "Go use an anti-hog base." What am I supposed to do when someone drops 3-5 lightning spells on my storage? You can revenge, that is if they aren't constantly online/shielded and if they even have any resources. Not only this, but this "strategy" takes absolutely no skill or effort. It's used as crutch for those who can't farm DE, and it punishes those who can. Every other strategy in the game takes some skill and runs the risk of failure, why should this be any different? Why should this be a 100% guarantee to take resources you normally wouldn't be able to get?

Also don't start using the common "this is a war game, anything goes!" This game isn't a simulation of actual war, basically nothing at all in this game is realistic. It's a game, it's meant for entertainment. Games aren't very entertaining when they aren't balanced or fair, and zapping isn't very fun or fair. :(

The Solution: It's really quite simple. Just make lightning spells do the same damage to storages they do already, just not take any resources. Sometimes people use lightning spells to go from 49% to 50%, so this wouldn't hinder that.

I'll ignore the spelling errors and pretend like this was a somewhat intelligent response.

First off, I'll say it again because you obviously aren't getting something. Using lightning spells to take resources that you normally couldn't get with a 0% chance of failing isn't fair. There's nothing sporting or entertaining about it, so why should it belong in a game?

Secondly, considering I never suggested "no gemming of the spell factory" so I have no idea what you're even talking about even more. I wouldn't consider myself the "rager" while you're making personal attacks. Also why would I go to another game made by SC if I didn't like SC?

Please just stop responding to my thread because you obviously can't think of anything intelligent to say and I don't need you getting my thread closed.

^^^^^^This.
I am a TH7, and it is inordinately frustrating to attack the middle of the base, the DE storage usually, because it is friggin HARD. Especially when you only get a few drips from a similarly leveled player. When you find something with >100 DE, for me at least, it is usually worth zapping. I rarely get any substantial amount from raiding.

I've seen lots of guides on how to farm DE as a TH7. Not to mention zapping as a TH7 will just cripple the player for when they go to a higher town hall because they won't be a good DE farmer.
