When I left we could upgrade walls with elixer. What happened?
You can still upgrade walls with elixir, they just raised it to level 9 walls.
This is because upgrading low-level walls with elixir was causing an economic problem within the game.
You can after skull walls, it was apparently to help th9 and 10 get elixir from th8's since they always had an abundance
Which is stupid because now we have way more than we know what to do with, I literally have nothing to spend elixir on besides my troops now. I am always a target with max storages 100% full
Well damn that hurts. I got plenty of elixer but walls are only level 7.
That's the way the game has always been and is supposed to work. They had a brief period where level 7 and 8 walls could be upgraded with elixir and the game had never been worse. I was a TH8 and I barched any base in crystal 3 that I could successfully defeat just for the league bonus. Almost every attack had less than 50k of each resource because no one had any loot. It was definitely the most terrible time to be playing CoC (and I was even TH8 so I was one of the lucky people that benefited from the walls for elixir event).
Well hopefully they will bring that back. That was defenitely a plus to base building.
Due to how much it messed up the economy it definitely won't be coming back. Just try to forget it ever happened and remember what it was like to play with a ton of elixir. Having excess elixir was always part of the game (unless you had just leveled your town hall).
The quote I was responding to was talking about having excess elixir and that is what I said was "the way it's always been." When I was TH7 (which was before the elixir for walls thing ever came out), I had excess elixir and so did everyone else. That is the way it has always been, so what the person I was quoting is experiencing is indeed the norm for the game.
You are right that people that are TH9 and TH10 and not experience a game that is the same as the way it has always been, but a TH8 like the person I quoted is experiencing "the way it has always been."
I was simply trying to help you get a positive mindset so you could enjoy the game more. You are perfectly within your right to be miserable and disgruntled if that is the way you want to be, but the walls are not coming back and accepting that fact will most likely help you enjoy the game more.
I remember having overflowing elixir before that update ever happened and it never bothered me because I knew that is just how the game worked. I donated dragons to everyone I could and made mass dragons every time I knew I was logging out for more than a few minutes. Having an excess of elixir is only a problem if you make it a problem in your head. Expecting things to work in a way that they don't never leads to contentment.
Well then you just have to put up with not having anything to spend your elixir on if you're unwilling to upgrade your TH.
They're not going to lower the elixir-for-walls level - it caused too much of a problem for the overall economy. Things are MUCH better now that they've fixed it.
lv 8 s are easy i finished hem in a month and a half...
p.s. i dont spend my life on clash
So make a push to masters to try for the extra builder or to see how high you can get. Maybe just donate better troops to the clan well you max or even... upgrade early. :smirk:
Welcome to the game. Enjoy the extra elixir well it lasts... Th9 is all about elixir at first and you will be very happy for people like yourself.
Skulls -> Legos and up!
I hope they raise it to Legos -> Lavas
