inferno type troop

haven't fleshed this out completely, also i have looked but can't find anything about anyone coming up with a similar idea.

a dark troop. fairly weak vs housing space, short range unti whos DPS increases the longer it is engaged, just like single shot inferno towers.

its a dark troop, maybe a dark wizard that cast a spell and as the spell or attack goes on buildings/unts perish at increasing speed.

3 tiers just like inferno


L1 DPS 90-450-1200 HP 1220

L2 DPS 102-510-1360 HP 1360

L3 DPS 115-580-1550 HP 1500

20 housing space and archer towers and xbows do x2 damage maybe x3, havne't done the math yet.

no idea on what it would cost to build

thoughts? would be pretty fun to build a dark wiz/witch army

Maybe it shoots a laser or lightning, to fit with the magic aspect of Clash of Clans? It starts out as a weak beam/ single, small strand of lightning, and gets bigger.

You just have to make sure it's not incredibly OP with golems. Maybe make it reset after the timer runs to its max damage?

i agree, maybe inferno does the extra damage. if range is limited, then multishot infernos could still target. or maybe nerf it with walls (can't attack walls). so they could be hard to control and bug out easily.

I really like the idea! Good job!

Good idea but with the suggested stats this troops would be OP combined with golems.

I like the idea. Would the damage increase be over a whole raid or start low on each building then increase, like an inferno tower on each new enemy it engages?

I feel stats need a huge nerf, IMO these are some guidelines for a troop like this. Keep in mind offense and defense stats are extremely different. The DPS should only go up to 500 at most and hitpoints ought to reduced to below 500 for it to be balanced IMO, offense and defense have different balances when it comes to stats. Housing space should be taken into consideration and I personally would recommend at least 10 housing space. Needs a bunch of work for it to not be OP, a low range around 0.8 would be good so funneling becomes important to defend against this troop. Defensive strategies would include use of walls to funnel it away from the rest of the army or into frontline combat, and attack strategies would involve protecting the golems, finding weak spots, and funneling with this troop.

Interesting but I would need more stats such as movement speed and attack speed to make a good conclusion.
