Team valkyrie

The 2 things wrong with the valk is that she takes too much space and the time required to train

even if the housing space remains 8 her training time at 15 mins is seriously too much..needs to come down to 8 atleast

...her dps should increase slightly for all 4 levels as-90,100,115 and 128, note: increase upgrade cost for lv3 and 4 and the attack speed 1.8secs....

movement speed remains the same...

but after studying the hog rider and wiz health her hit points should reduce to- 250,350,450 and 550...hit point take a hit i know but only cuz the dps is actually increasing...also because of something later ;)

now..i want to suggest some tweaks for the valk cuz i think she looks pretty ordinary i.e. she actually looks more suited as a normal elixir troop!

Level 5 and 6

i know SC is probably working on this, but i would like to suggest it anyways...significant graphical updates need to happen for the level 5 and 6 valk....
im thinking at level 5 her hair turns black with her clothes turning a darker shade too...a black streak will run the length of the axe and the curved edge will turn pink like the pekka colors..

at level 6 her hair remains black her eye color changes deep purple...and 2 black lines run down her face from temple, over the eyes and down the cheeks...also her axe becomes bigger and fully black with the edge glowing slightly brighter and she now carries it on her shoulder while in the camp..

the dps and hp become 140,155 and 650,800


Ability

all dark troops have some decent ability or in the case of the hog and the witch...pretty great....the minion is an air troop and the golem has huge health..

the valk though is pretty ordinary...SC might say she has a splash component but honestly that doesnt help much while attacking does it?

now what ive got planned is...the valk can now target air troops!! she throws her axe up in the air as a boomerang to deal single target damage...this attack deals +2 her regular dps.....

but to balance this awesome ability out her normal fighting will no longer have a splash component...

so with this ability her position as a valuable cc troop remains more or less in tact...

the real deal with this ability is seen in the raids which is my aim all along..to get the valk picked in the raiding party!!

what this ability does while raiding is..yes it will target the cc air troops as well of course...but it can be used to BLOCK defences attacks...yup its axe in the boomerang and normal mode can be used to DEFLECT(NOT COMPLETELY STOP) all defensive attacks....
deflection means that the damage caused will be reduced by some amount but will not become zero completely

the mechanisms of this ability are:
- while the valks swings its axe it will be dealing damage to buildings and enemy troops as well as deflecting at the same time
- can only deflect incoming damage not completely negate
- will only protect herself if the incoming fire is targeting it and is single target
- will deflect mortar shells but all troops within target area of the shells will take the reduced damage
- protect the valk from xbows and infernos!
the continuous fire from these 2 defences is tough for the valk to take and so when engaged by these 2 units less damage can be deflected than from other defences.

this is a little balance trick!

The amount of damage deflected will of course vary with the valks level and i ll update this page when i come up with a reasonable formula

to balance this ability the valks have greatly reduced health and if SC likes this then the cost to train will also increase no doubt;)

SC wants to see the valk get more game time as do i but right now, even with the update im betting it still very much is the lowest trained troop out there and its not too difficult to see why...the current avatar of the valk is not exactly one of SCs best ideas but i think with the above couple of changes it can become an excellent troop

feel free to give inputs on what you guys think looking forward to it:D

no comments? cmon guys give me something here!:D

maybe dps and hp are fine too

for the rest I agree

too much time to create them too much space in military camp

the drawing is an end in itself for me that's fine too

The valkyrie actually does have a unique ability, although having never used one, I don't know how useful it is.
The Valkyrie is the only melee splash damage unit. Instead of a tiny splash around a projectile, it is a big-ish splash (1/2-1 tile radius, maybe) around the valkyrie. I've seen in a replay that this means that the Valkyrie can attack both buildings in front and behind her at the same time.

Maybe this can be used with the Jump Spell to allow Valkyries to jump over walls, and break them for good as she goes by collateral damage? I don't know.

The valkyrie is supposed to be a smaller Pekka with splash damage not a wizard. Her hp and dps are fine as is her housing space.

the valk is not supposed to be a smaller anything man!
and my idea about the wiz is only to raise interest in her....both the housing and time are the major stickers for the valk...this makeover will make her a much more popular troop

Copied from the wiki "Some players refer to her as a P.E.K.K.A with no armor, because she is female and has extremely high damage per second and hitpoints." She is much more similar to a pekka than a wizard. There have been plenty of threads about improving the valk and yours is by far the worst. Why would anyone want her to be like a wizard, we already have the wizard. You want to take away the 2 good things about a valk, the high hp and the splash damage. The valk is suposed to be in between the other troops (tougher than a basic troop like a giant or a hog but not as powerfull as the bigest troops like the pekka).

You want to change every last thing about the valk (even her red hair). Your suggestion isn't improving the valk, its replacing it with a totaly diferant troop. There are plenty of people who like valks how they are (the few of us who like valks would welcome an improvement but not something that would totaly change the function of the valk), if you want the troop your suggesting in the game then sugest it as a new troop, don't try to remove an existing one.

i give up man..you seem too thick

Valks are awesome. great ideas here. i think valks would be more relevant if they targeted defenses only. they are already super powerful at max. guys in my clan are moving toward valk over wizards

too many defence targeting troops...also if my ideas were implemented atleast the deflection ability then the valk would be too powerful...imagine her cutting down defences and deflecting their damage at the same time? too strong...
