Minimum level 9 walls to use elixir is a BAAAAAAAD idea!!!!! DON"T DO IT PLEASE!
COC please don't put this in the new update!!!! I don't know what was going in your head when you thought this would be a good idea! Ok maybe good for max TH10 but you guys do know that they are a minority in the Clash of Clans community. It was horrible before you guys put the change in when at level 7 walls you can use elixir, but once you did it was perfect! The jump from lvl 6 to 7 was huge in terms of gold, 75000 to 200000( I could be wrong). Even at this stage it was hard to get enough gold just for this and it was just going to get harder and you guys implementing the idea of using elixir was just what was need to ALL players not just the top elite players, who we all know gemmed (most of them anyway).
So PLEASE don't change that, I am begging you. I loved COC because of the fact that you are not forced to spend money to get to a high level so please don't ruin COC for people like me (the MAJORITY)!!!!
Don't push the level 9 wall higher using elix!
Don't push the level 9 wall higher using elix! it more better level 8 higher can use elixer!
TH8 and my walls are all lvl 7
As stated above my walls are level 7, i wont be able to use elixer to upgrade them to level 8 with this update, however i think this is a good thing. It will mean there is more for elixer to loot for everyone. If your elixer is overflowing and you have maxed all elixer upgrades then start building massive armies. Practice with your max troops and use that to win stars in clan wars and get more gold from raids. The way it was was making it much too difficult to find elixer in raids. I support this.
I agree it sucks for lower bases
this doesn't apply to me because I'm th9 getting th10 in 8days. Walls are half lvl 8 and 9. So this really doesn't affect me.
But I do feel bad for anyone with their plans ruined because of this upgrade. At least give like 2months before applying it so people who are half way w their walls can update them. My clanmates have starter their lvl 8 so it will affect them.
And it sucks that people are happy that supercell gave people this option and then they take it away. So will u be happy if they take another update away (take away lava hounds or better them haha). But yeah it's unfair that's all.
For those who say this will balance raids. Idk where you have been or how you raid but there is always elixir n gold a lot of it. Doing lvl9walls while my th updates so much loot so stop complaining about that. And for those that say u can use better troops when your elixir is full. I done that before this update which it help me I was spilling tons of elixir nothing to update while I maxed my dark troops. Done w spells n other troops and other buildings. N just few defenses left but I decided to do walls.
This will make people rush I was going to about to upgrade th so that I wouldn't be wasting elixir.
And even with maxed full elixir storages is not like you get more out of it. Just having 2.5m elixir or gold people can get 350k. So you don't need a filled storages to get the max available loot. Plus you will (if you attack right) get always more loot than you spend. You aren't going to attack a base w 70k w a go wipes or dragons. Or a 150k. U gotta know how to attack too. Or know how to farm.
So I guess more rushers with weak walls better for me but that's not the point. And more max players happy because people are suffering. More lower or new players unhappy.
It will always be like that no one will ever be 100% happy. But if you give an update don't take that update away. Imo lvl8 (500k) is expensive so at least you should be able to choose elixir or gold with it. And or be able to update level 8 walls starting from th8 or th9 with elixir. Or maybe unluck elixir till th9 (Lvl8 walls) if higher long time players are so opposed of using elixir for walls
WHAT!!!! People actually this this update will actually balance the game out!?
IN WHAT WAY WOULD THIS BALANCE THE GAME OUT????? By making gold ten times more valuable that elixier and dark elixier (I made that statistics up to emphasize the point)? If anything this makes the whole loot system unbalanced when you basically make one loot soooo much more op that the rest. Like believe me it is going to come to a point where instead of having dark elixier at the center of the base it will gold, that is how valuable it will be made. And guess what that is not going to make it easier for people farm of gold and upgrade your to even get your walls to lvl 8!
And for the people who are like "Oh yaaa I love this update, we can now get more elixer from farming because no one in using it" ...... yaaaa no one is using it because they have NOTING to use it on!!! The main thing you use your elixer for upgrading is troops, and they take days!!!! And during this time your elixer is just going to build up and up while you STRUGGLE to find gold to keep your builder busy on defences(most likely) which takes GOLD. Oh but wait gold is soooo overpoweringly valuable everyone it going use it up quick or keep it well protected that your are going to find a lot less. Ya sooo good luck finding gold at high levels....
It will not be beneficial to high or lower levels, I know people are are saying that elixer upgrades will be sooo much easier, ok fair enough it will be but onces there are done then what? All that elixer is not going to do any good to you. Ok you wont have to worry about making expensive troops anymore but what good is that going to do you? Expensive troops tend to take a LONG time to make and during this time you probably wont hv much to do in the game and you go off, and what happens when you go off? Yes you get attacked and most likely they were going for your gold and they tale your valuable gold, which then you have to get back and some more to make a profit.... You see the trend here? This update will only help people who have lvl 8 walls already, no one else, it will take like 112.5 mill to get all walls to lvl8, really, I don't care who your are but that is unfair (I REALLY feel for you guys who had to do that but that doesn't mean others have to endure that).
When they implemented the option for using both gold and elixer for walls, in my opinion, was the best thing they did since the clan wars update. I know for a fact if they do this new update I will become bored of COC pretty quick because it will come to a point when it is just about getting gold and KEEPING the damn thing.
need elixlir to update walls
its not fair since super cell has given new update......now walls can be only updated with gold...pls fix it ..give back elixlir update option back...........
Great Update, One Bad New Feature
Getting rid of using elixir for level 8 walls is a horrible idea. If the idea is to have more elixir available for looting I don't understand the reasoning at all. We were spending the excess elixir on walls because there was nothing else to spend it on. Millions of elixir can't all be dumped into donating higher level troops to your clanmates. I just don't understand how having more availability of a somewhat useless resource is a good idea.
Hopefully they will change this back. Most of the people saying this feature is a good thing are people who are feeling salty that they upgraded their walls long before they could have used elixir. That's not good reasoning, that's selfish.
lvl 8 walls 500k gold/elixir
farming 500k is already hard for lvl 8 walls. and now we're only using gold. f*ck.:mad::mad::mad:
