Absolutely, I agree, if everybody did it all the time, but they don't. The percentage of players reading this forum is so low I doubt me saying it will have any impact whatsoever. In fact I'm certain you wont suddenly find everybody doing it. I was just sharing one tactic I use (temporarily while at the top end of TH8) that is within the 'rules' of the game and therefore perfectly acceptable.Quote:

Eventually, I put a TH out there for people to snipe with gold. I kept having to break the shield to give away gold faster.
When I finally finished elixir upgrades for lab, barracks, de drill, de storage, I used the elixir for maxing gold storage and gold mines.

If you check my base today, I have maxed both gold and elixir storages to 4 million . I am trying to the gold mines upgrades, before I go to th8. I am sitting with max storages on my way to th8.
I do get the point. I'm not saying don't build mass drag armies. You said you were sitting on 800k Elixir and I was suggesting a way to reduce that.Quote:

Yes, I myself did my legos with gold/elixir mix.All elixir upgrades done long time ago except the jump spell to level 2 so I suppose If i Had to make walls only with gold I would have had excess of elixir which on the other hand is good for the economy(more elixir available to be stolen).Quote:

Update was reverted because now he can't use elixir so he has max elixir all the time he can only use it for training army up
