But I do take a closer look at revenging zappers because its generally a clue that they're poor at strategy and tend to have bad bases, etc.

So I was looking at this guy and, as expected, his base was ♥♥♥♥. DE totally easy to get to. Alas he only had 280, which I wasn't going to trouble myself getting, even though I could do it at little cost/effort. But then I checked his CC and he had a Level 3 drag! That sealed it...I love killing drags. Love it, love it love it. It's really one of my favorite parts of raiding. I think there should be an achievement: Dragon Slayer! I'd be well on my way to the 5000 mark...seriously, that's how much I love killing drags!

But here's the best part...after I got the drag out I needed to lure it to a corner to kill it with my 12 archers and 3 minions. And ....the barb I dropped in the corner to lure the drag called in a Santa Strike!!!!

Ha! That's what you get for zapping!! (for 420 DE at least...I zapped my share at TH7, and even now if there's 2500 available I'm not too proud to drop some lightning)

:)
Dead Drag, RIP Santa Strike, a little bit of DE from a clueless zapper. Does it get much better?

As I said in the original post my problem with zapping is that its generally inefficient. 1 rage and some tier 1 troops can generally get you 2x the DE as 3 lightnings. There are times however, when it IS the most efficient way of getting DE. Early TH7, its close to the only way to get your BK and minions upgraded in a reasonable amount of time.

Another time when its a highly efficient way to get DE is right before I'm going to bed. I don't care about the elixir cost, its just the training time of the lightning. But right before I'm going to sleep spells can cook all night. Leaving 3 cooked spells sitting in my quiver is just stupid.

So right before I sign-off, if I've got spells cooked, I go through my revenge list with VERY low standards for what I'll use lightning on, which is what happened with Gamelover. Those THREE lightning spells were not wasted, they were, in fact very very efficiently used. Especially at sub-200 when I'd have to look FOREVER to find a base with 2500 DE.

Enjoy your DE:cool: I went down there for some free gems from unbreakable and you just earned me a defensive win:cool:

Thanks:cool:

I rarely revenge anyone. If the available resources were posted on your defense log, then I would probably do it more often.

Currently, I have to scroll through my defense log and look at each base one at a time. I believe the defense log has 40 bases. Once you find a base with good resources, you gotta check their cc and look at their layout to get the proper revenge army built.

Once you have your army ready, 90% of the time it seems the base is under a shield. Then you gotta wait around and cyber stalk them just to figure out when you will be able to pounce.

While an overkill 3 star can feel good, sometimes i think about all the farming i missed out on and in the end i sometimes would be better off not revenging at all :(

EDIT: regarding the OP, grats on your revenge :)

Hahaha, this is hilarious. That zapper deserved it.
I remember back in sub-200, I lost 5k de in 15 minutes. Nobody leaves you a shield there, and there are tons of noob zappers down there.

And to be clear, i dont look to revenge zappers because they stole my de per se...thats just life at coc. But as i said, its an indication that theyre clueless if they zap for like 150 per lightning. Somebody dropping an AQ on me and resigning doesnt give me quite the same hint.
