Blatant AI flaw

I'm sure every farmer has experienced this at some point.
With the new hero updates, heroes are now unlurable and effectively act as 'magnets' for the attacking troops. This is all good. However, for whatever reason, instead of directly attacking the queen, as troops would the king, ranged troops will instead target the dividing wall.
I.e., there is a layer of walls dividing some archers and the AQ. Instead of firing at the AQ itself (and plainly within range), the archers will target the wall before attacking the queen.

This is absolutely ridiculous

I have to agree with you
But looking at the bright side, this also helps non-ranged troops destroy the wall faster

I personally think they had good intentions with the defensive hero shift, but they went about it all wrong.

I think it would be better if the "lure" worked the same as before, except with a smaller radius.

Meh doesn't bother me but I'm only a TH8 though.

Your time will come, your time will come... You'll suffer like we all have done :p

I agree. Heroes are now "defensive" units. They should at least be targeting by defense seeking troops...maybe an option to toggle between??

Archer queen has an increased range over other ranged troops. Some of the times you witness this behavior she simply is out of reach of troops.

I mean, as you can plainly see.....he wasn't referring to one of those times.

Thats always been the case even before the hero update she would stand behind a wall if you have a bunch of troops in her range. Idk why they did that but, i have been burned by that in cw before. I had his cc come out and the queen stood behind a dividing wall and my troops tried to get though a lv 10 wall before they knew it cc smoked them.

balloons dont even see the archer queen as a defensive structure. they just go around her like she isnt there and die by her bow
