Walbreakers bombs explode upon death?

I've been thinking about this for a while. Has anyone else been annoyed with Wallbreakers running up to a wall, only to die right at the wall? But what happens to their bomb? I mean they are carrying a lit bomb up to the wall with them, right?

So wouldn't it make sense for the Wallbreakers to drop their bombs upon death, regardless of where they are and explode?

To compare it to something; A mortar shoots its shell. The shell flies off to hit some giants or barbarians off in the distance. The archers you strategically placed then destroy this mortar while the shell is still flying. Does the shell just disappear into thin air as the mortar is destroyed?

I know there may be some implications with this with people saying that it'll be too easy to reach the core, but with the addition of the jump spell and many people using lavaloonian nowadays, walls are becoming obsolete anyway...

Constructive feedback is appreciated and modifications also. Thanks for reading :rolleyes:

use tanks.

Ok that's not what I'm suggesting here. I know there are many other things that can help you get your Wallbreakers in and blowing up the walls. This is more of a logical type thing, which would lead to a constructive improvement within the game. Where does the Wallbreakers bomb disappear to when he dies? Also check the example in my first post.

I dont agree with your wall breaker idea but I DO agree with your mortar idea. The shell wouldn't magically disappear. I see the same thing happen with wizard towers. Halfway through firing and getting destroyed, the stuff he fires disappears. But when wizards, witches and minions are halfway firing their projectile and they are killed, their projectiles don't disappear unlike the defenses. It is a bit unfair and I think this needs to be changed.

What you said can only be related to other projectiles, which also still work if the unit dies, even a dragon's breath. Also there is no realism in this game and changing game mechanics to make things 'realistic' without any consideration as to whether it is actually needed from a gameplay perspective is stupid.
In relation to whether it is actually needed I said use tanks, as it isn't needed as tanks should protect them. It would make it too easy to get in the core if wbs could blow up walls after dying. You haven't provided a reason for this change other than it would make breaking into a core easier, without saying why it should be easier. Any skilled attacker can break into the core of a maxed base with the current wbs so why the change?
The argument that jump spell makes walls slightly obsolete isn't a reason to make them more obsolete

Um, the mortar thing wasn't really an idea or a suggestion, the shells of the mortar DO still hit troops after it's been destroyed.

Could I ask why the wallbreakers shouldn't drop their bombs on death? It makes sense for them to, right?

There is something weird with wizard towers however, if the troop they are targeting dies, they will do their firing animation sometimes but don't actually shoot. I don't think they can change that.

I don't think you understood me, I'm not talking about when the wallbreaker dies while doing his bomb dropping animation, I'm suggesting that his bomb is dropped, regardless of where it is.

As far as gameplay improvement, it'll save people bringing ridiculous amounts of wallbreakers with them, only for them to be decimated by the new archer tower firing speeds, splash damage, teslas, infernos, xbows, anything that'll take them out in seconds, but for what? What happens their bomb? It's vanished into thin air?

I bet once lavaloonian gets a nerf and people go back to using more ground troops, people will agree that wallbreakers die far too quickly with the new archer tower changes. Yes, bringing a tank will help, but it becomes trickier when you want to get your wallbreakers to the core. In most attacks I see at higher levels, most peoples wall breakers don't get to the core, and people rely on their wizards and heroes or a jump spell to hit the walls as they are pounded by defences, because it's impossible to get wallbreakers there to assist them.

I do see where you are coming from with this, it makes sense, but I still think that destroying the wall breaker quick before he drops the bomb is part of the game... What I would suggest is maybe when the Wallbreakers get killed before they drop their bombs, the bombs could do half the damage as they would if the Wallbreaker was still living. I know that it will seem a ton less realistic, but I don't know if it could be added the way you originally said, supercell may agree with others that it is a little bit overpowered for the game... All in all, it is a cool idea and would be great to see in Clash!

I think if they did allow the bomb to explode upon death, the bomb should do damage to the attacking troops.

That would make it realistic
