I think it's time to add a lightning rod. Add it's functionality to tesla towers or add a new trap. I would basiclly trigger if a lightning spell i used over it, absorbing all or most of the damage done. TT could receive 3x damage or a new trap would break after one use.
As for balance I have faith SC can make it work one way or another. They've done right by me thus far.
I'm guessing your suggesting this idea because people keep using lightning spells on your DE storage.Quote:

Requested many times and SC probably won't implement it. That's probably one of the most subtle anti-DE-zapping traps I've seen so nice job but still, no.
Actually, I'm sitting rather pretty with DE now that I've got two pumps. I've been known to use that tactic myself from time to time. I'm just thinking there are zero counters to spells(that I'm aware of), period.
What if I reworked my idea to a 'magic lightning rod' trap? You get very few of them at high TH level, and they cancel or hamper a spell centered within a small radius of the trap? Say lessened damage from lightning spells as mentioned, or shorter duration on jump spells and so on. You could use them to protect your DE, sure, but you could then also try to cut short rages in certain areas, or prevent a degree of healing in certain deadzones in your base. All traps would trigger at once if they get tripped together, preventing you from just stacking them on one area, such as the DE storage.
Like I said, I think they could make something like it work, and I'd like to see what they can do with the idea, even if they don't run with it 100% as suggested.
