Make sniping Dark Elixer harder

First I want to complain about a problem with darkness elixer that I'm sure many of you high lvl guys suffered. But I am proposing a new fair solution.

Dark Elixer is not an easy commodity to keep. We've spent hours and hours gathering us darkness elixer.. particularly in my case.. in less than 30 mins.. i had 3 people come in with weak bases.. snipe my dark elixer for 950 each. That's 3000 dark elite gone to guys who spent no effort using strategy.

So my solution is.. as soon as an enemy attacks dark elixer.. no dark elixer is stolen yet. The attacker must damage more than 50 percent of the container in order to steal. So next time the snipers come..
instead of them stealing 900..they steal about 100 to 200..which is fine.

Really? What is the deal?

Probably I might be the only one here on the forum, but for sure your DE get stolen if you are in a too low leaque for your level. What you expect?

Also, they increased the max of what an enemie can get to 3000 of the DE container. So if you have 200k, you lose only 3k. I think it is enough for this.

Please...............

I can make more than they steal in 1 raid, not hard to keep at all.
btw i am carrying 150k DE, if they zap it fine idc i can get it back next raid, zapping isnt a problem for me at all, i rarely get zapped.

Floris that is such a weak and invalid rebuttal. You never said why it was a bad idea.. all your said was I was in the wrong league.. so what makes it the right league? You also provided no explanation as to why the current implementation is more reasonable than my idea. Your comment is essentially "I'm fine with the way things are.. so should you"

This is a strategy game.. There's NO strategy to have someone pop up randomly.. dump 3 lightening spells and vanish. It's really annoying.

Plus.. a. rebuttal isn't supposed to involve how it relates to you.. its supposed to relate to the game play involving everyone else.

I see absolutely no problem wish supercell adding this feature.. Regardless of how annoyed you are with this idea. Unless I'm proven wrong about how this idea is bad.. then tell me.

The strategy in zapping is the zapper is smart enough to zap. He found a weak point in ur defense get over it. My suggestion find a league were u dont get zapped or put ur th on the outside ur walls for a shield. In only a level 70 ur the high level player u should know such.

sigh. another person new to the forum who is disgruntled because of a game mechanic they dont like.

that is all it is really. you just dont like getting zapped. we get it. i get it. it sucks.
but that is what it is. it is a spell that does splash damage.

i also play call of duty. I HATE the target finding attachments on the guns. it is such a noobish and cheap attachment. but it keeps people who are bad at the game playing. this in turn gives skilled players like myself a chance to knock them around by using other game mechanics to beat them.

just like the lightning spell. yes it sucks getting zapped for your DE. i get that. just remember that these are probably TH rushers. their defenses probably suck. they may not come on frequently so their collectors get full. etc.

bottom line is that i am fairly certain that nothing will be done about the lightning spell. so, you are just gonna have to deal with it.

Found a weak point? that's always going to be a weak point.. no matter what you do! That response is also ridiculous. Please don't respond to this thread if all you are going to say "put up with it".. I'm adding this idea to improve game play. Again.. if you find a flaw in this idea.. I wanna hear it. If there is no flaw.. please don't respond with your nonsense of "deal with it".. because this is a mechanic that can be improved. Simple as that. Geesh.

I'm not talking about changing the lightening spell.. or the fact that the can't snipe DE. I'm saying to strengthen the DE container for lightening spell.. but attacking straight on.. keep it the way it is. Losing nearly 1k for a snipe is just insane. I'd understand if its like 200...not 1k. Thus rewarding for raids more than sniping.

This is an idea forum.. i came to put an idea.. not deal with the dumb responses I've been getting so far. I hope you guys aren't doing their same for other threads either. I been playing this game for almost a year.. and this is the only idea I came up with.

yes. you and the hundreds of other people on here who have had the same idea. that has been shot down by supercell. you dont like your DE getting zapped by lightning spells. tough. this is not a game mechanic that needs to be improved because it does what it is supposed to do. YOU just dont like it. well, suck it up buttercup. its probably not gonna change.

zapping is not that big of an issue. most of the people on this forum do not think it is that big of an issue. supercell has said that they do not have any plans of changing anything in regards to the lightning spell, making DE storages immune to it, etc.

Your idea is worse. thanks

I look at it this way, alls fair in love and war. It just happens to everyone, you can't stop the inevitable.
