What I don't think he's getting I that THIS IS PART OF THE GAME!
Erikbs wrong again. All my dark elixer have been gotten either by drills or raids. I've never used lighting spells to get DE. I've revenged everyone who stole my DE that way.. and gained almost equal amount plus DE. Getting DE through raids should be more rewarded than by lightning spells. Your response just proves you have no idea what I'm talking about.
I think you have no concept of what "Ideas and Features Request" means. You believe everything as part of a game shouldn't be changed.. based on what you just said.
Yes.. its part of the game. I want it changed. So i went to this forum.. specifically to help change it. What are YOU doing?
If you don't think the game should be changed.. why are you here?
no its because for most of us, we enjoy the concept of being able to zap your DE. Ive done it, ill continue to do it when i think it will be worth it.
the thing is that you have not given, in my opinion, a valid reason why it shouldnt be in the game, other than you dont like it. or its annoying. or its a pain to get. tough.
if you look at the polls, the consensus is that most of us want it. now, in order for the minority to affect the outcome of something that affects everyone, they have to provide compelling reasons why it should be so. i do not have to justify why it should stay, you have to justify why it should not. I like the lightning spell just the way it is. you dont. fine. i dont care about your "solutions", because there is no problem. you first have to identify a problem for everyone before a solution for everyone is implemented.
i believe that zapping is a viable tactic for aquiring resources. just like goblins ignoring regular buildings and heading straight for the resources is a viable tactic. just like gowipe and gowiwi are viable raiding tactics. i really dont care if you think zapping is not a viable tactic. who are you to tell me how i play this game? if i want to waste over 100k elixer and just use lightning spells on your base to get however much DE i can, i will.
until someone can provide a much better reason for me not to other than, "its hard getting DE" or "its such a pain getting zapped", or "zapping isnt a real strategy" i am gonna tell everyone that i see that posts a complaint about getting their DE zapped to suck it up buttercup and just deal with it.
I gotcha spinner. But I'm not saying anything is wrong with the lightening spell. I also never said that the tactic should be removed. I clearly mentioned in my previous posts that you can still do it.. but to a lesser degree.
I just don't think it's fair for the amount of it being taken when you are nearly full. When DE is full it's harder to have than when you are half full.. because of snipes. I'm saying it seems more challenging and fun to get it in raids. It doesn't matter what trophy count you are.. what you did to the base.. it'll always happen.
I mean if it really isn't a problem.. why not lower costs of heros then? do you care about upgrading heros? or is having a level 3 barbarian king enough for you?
yes you are. if nothing is wrong with it, why would you want to change its aspect? by causing storages not to be looted until it reaches 50% decimation is changing the aspect of the lightning spell. this completely negates the splash damage aspect on storages causing lightning spells to be completely useless against them.
what you meant to say is that nothing is wrong with the lightning spell in the way that you use it.
Look. i get it. i really do. but what is the point of this game? the whole point of the game is to steal each others loot to upgrade our village. you think its a cheap tactic. it may very well be. but the idea is for me to steal your loot, what difference does it really make how i do it?
Well i was thinking 50% including raids.. not just lightening spells. Haha. When i reach DE container in a raid.. I always destroy it.. It's never partially destroyed.
The game actually "kinda" does what I'm asking. If a DE container has less than 200 or something (forgot the number.. but its a small amount) .. You won't be stealing anything until you damage most of it.
That's actually how I got the idea. I don't mean to trample on anyone's way of getting loot by tactic.. but all im saying.. having ways to have a preventative measure would be nice to counteract multiple hits?
Like.. what preventative measures can you take.. to prevent 10 guys from sniping your DE.. not putting you in a shield.. stealing 10k? There really isnt.. no matter what you do.. There's always a possibility no matter how small.
You can take preventative measures against gobs.. or stronger bases.. and you do so by base design.. even if you are weak.. Going down in trophies help. But the problem I'm talking about can happen to anyone.. Regardless of what you do.
think about what happens in the long run.. as you get stronger.. and trying to upgrade to level 30..or 35 for barb king.. or arch queen.. literally saving 120k in de. What will you do to stop a stream of guys doing lightening spells? go to black league? I've seen th7 and th8 there..
raid more. if you are online, you cannot be raided.
other than that, there is not much to be done.
any sort of change to the game mechanic of the lightning spell has a domino effect.
it doesnt just affect the lightning spell, it trickles down and touches every other aspect.
this is probably just one reason why supercell hasnt done anything about it.
sigh.. ur right. Maybe supercell can check out my idea and maybe get a better idea of it is. I gave been raiding constantly.. lol.. 130 winning raids so far..
i don't want lightening spell to change. Just the effects of attacking DE container..
