I'm having a hard time with troop costs in general, mainly mid-higher tier troops.

It's SO expensive and discouraging to bother raiding with a decent army. I've Barched a LOT and yes that has been quite effective at times but it is quite limiting on anything beyond outside edge collector raids. It is not very effective at puncturing bases and getting those storages, even with a few WB's.

The army I calculated below is in my opinion mostly a mid-tier army. It is not a high level army consisting of Pekka's or Dragons. In my opinion this army composition should not be as expensive as it is. See below.


TH8 200 max level troops:

-15 Giants = 33,750 elixir
- 6 WB's = 18,000 elixir
- 10 Wizards = 35,000 elixir
- 45 Barbs = 4500 elixir
- 44 Arch = 8800 elixir

Grand total - a WHOPPING 100,050 elixir. Add one rage spell = 133,050


So, yea. I'm not going to accumulate much elixir that way at all. Raids like above are rarely used, only in times when I want to have fun and raid something different with no regard to price.

I'd like to personally see AT LEAST a 15% reduction in price for mid tier troops, high tier as well in my opinion. An ideal reduction would be 25%. A lot of the other games similar to Clash have much, much, cheaper costs.

Sorry Supercell, you guys are way out of touch on troop prices. You're doing a lot of minute changes here and there to balance the economy and whatever else, but you're completely overlooking the elephant in the room: Troops above Barch are FAR too expensive.

You should learn and use barch and bam.
