Sick of your de being lightning spelled?!?

Why not improve the revenge system by this idea..


Being able to tag specific battles in your battle log, that you want to revenge.. And as soon as they either have no shield or are online, the game prompts you by a little (!) on your battle log tab. This would give you the perfect satisfaction to go and revenge those de stealing low lifes!! Or just those pesky goblins that get on your nerves.

this would really enhance your desicion to just attack who ever you want. And with every action, there is a consequence..
Your opinion would be awesome. Clash on chief!

No....

Actually I'm sick of people like you complaining about DE zapping....:facepalm:
Accept it, lightning spells are part of the game.

In case you didn't realize (or read the post), the actual idea has nothing to do with de or zaps.
Read.

Edit: this same guy on another thread you were on just now:
"i say this because if someone wants to waste 5 lightning spells on ur de then thats there decision. However i think this idea would allow u to get back at the player in a better way."

Well, OP could have had added a "New Revenge System" on his title. It's very misleading. :smirk: Ignore my post :smirk::smirk:

This title is a bit misleading. I'm pretty sure most people skipped over it due to the mass amount of complaints with zappers. Although, I would like an improved revenge system.

Well it has something to do with it. It allows you to build lightning spells and revenge players that have wronged you, by spelling ur de. In addition, it also improves the revenge option, instead of the task of going through the list and clicking on revenge+ having to press "deactivate your shield" button each time. In my opinion this deters people from revenging, because realistically its a waste of time. Sorry if ive wasted your time due to misleading information. Furthermore, i didnt realise the distiguished "hate" against de zapping posts �� so appoligies

Come on. Move on please. How much can a DE zapper steal from you? 2K? You can easily raid it back in like 5 or 6 raids. Or are you zappers complainers depend solely on your drills to get DE? Maybe that is the reason you got so butthurt

No, crying about zapping is part of being a noob. Being able to realize that only noobs cry about it is what makes you a good member of the forums.

Nah, more people should cry about it. Flood the forums with it. It obviously a huge problem.

Did you guys even read his post? He was talking about improving the revenge system (specifically to get back at the zappers), not removing zapping as a whole.

I actually agree that they should improve the revenge system, although the solution he suggested may not've been the best.

I read the post, understand it fully. Personally it should be titled for improving revenges, not zapping... I just was responding to this guy's comment.

Over shielding is the biggest problem. Getting rid of the shield triggered off of destroying the town hall would fix a lot of issues, including zapping, because revenging would be more realistic.

Tbh if they implemented an idea like this im sure everyone would shut up about getting lightning striked. As the revenge system at this time provides no certainty of Allowing you to revenge att due to shields ect. However this solution would give you a much greater opportunity to lightning strike your de back and possibly take more then what they took from you, not definate, its completely up to the player to decide.. Wouldnt that be great?!?!? Talk about satisfaction from a game.. And who know SC may profit from this because players will feel more inclined to purchase a shield, due to more people will be out to revenge the offenders so to speak. At the end of the day though, it is a big issue, lots of people are voicing their opinions and everyone is getting over it.

Realistically that wouldn't be a good idea because there would be no farming and saving for anything would be much harder. It has to be specific to the revenge system. What other way could u improve it, perhaps once you have been attacked you have a window of 10 minutes to attack him back dispite him having a shield or not. And if its outside the 10 minutes then regular revenge options apply like having to wait and guess if he can be revenge attacked or not.

I like the idea of an indicator letting you know that a base is open to a revenge. Hence no shield or not online maybe green on the revenge button instead of red. Actually a very good idea. 👍 But the title is misleading.

It's a good idea. Revenge system should be more efficient. It will hinder zappers.

To those who think people affected by zappers, only farm on drills and stuff, I just lost 4700 de to 4 zappers, in 8 mins without getting a shield. To redeem those u need 2-3 raids if you are lucky, that is equivalent to 80-90 mins, considering spell preparation time, hero regeneration and stuff.
We should try and walk a mile in his shoes, before we criticise someone.

What would you suggest to improve the revenge system?

Totally agree revenge is broken/non existing as a functioning part of the game. Removing the shield from the destruction of the townhall, or maybe just making it a 1hr shield if the th is destroyed, would help make revenge useful. Alternatively at least making spells immune from shields will allow some petty revenge via de zapping.

Or perhaps introduce a new, more destructive spell that only functions against shielded bases To help make the revenge sweeter? Maybe a meteor strike that could crash thought the shield?

This does sound like a great idea. revenge is great. But every time you go to do it , they are online or have a shield. Completely agree

When you find players online, its so easy to take revenge.
As long as you can be patience and hit the revenge button every minute.

It can take a few hours sometimes but they cant stay online forever.

Most ppl hit revenge button a few times and give up.
Thats not how you catch a fish.

Taking revenge takes time and a lot of patience.

I never have any problems with taking revenge

That is the problem with the revenge system, you cant prepare to attack the player you want to revenge due to their protection status. As the player goes from having a shield to gaining another shield within a matter of minutes. Ie the amount of time you search for a battle. Even by checking constantly for hours there is still a possibility that you will still miss the chance for revenge. My solution doesnt necessary mean you will definately revenge that player. It will only indicate to you that you can, if you are online.

Just like they should do about watching your live clan attacks and defences in cws

If you hate being de zapped stop playing. Or use your de. If you can't take the heat get out of the kitchen.

I dont hate it, i love it its the best idea to get revenge!!

Why don't you create a group called " Anti-zappers" who stand against zapping and collect ideas to decrease zapping.
#sarcasm

I just zapped 2300 off someone for trapping his town hall.

where is the option for "bored of this topic"

we should do something about TH trappers, so annoying, either protect it or dont, i mean it makes taking their loot easier as you know where the traps are, but the only reason i started the attack was to snipe the th, then after i win i need to refil my camps, id rather wait for a base that is overflowing with loot for that

You should have named the thread *New Revenge idea!* or something like that. Many people are Getting the wrong idea lol.

You do realize it's ruled out?
Graphical Interface Related:
*Separate tab in chat for troop requests
*Revenge list indicate online/shielded or currently attackable without having to click each person’s button
*Ability to hide certain attacks in battle logs
*Show loot/trophies which were available on battle logs in addition to what was earned
*When revenge used – defense log includes original attack results (resources/trophies/%/stars)
*Modify Att/Def Won stat to include losses as well, example: Attacks: 38/12 Defenses: 3/12
*Add comma or space at thousands space in ALL places: Upgrade buttons, spell/troop buttons, shop, etc.
*Add a counter when all builders are busy to indicate when first one will be free
*Allow iOS Device battery indicator icon to be displayed while in-game
*Upgrade menu listing all things upgradable
*Ability to turn on white buffer lines without moving building/decoration
*Add a League Chat area

I want this feature too, but I don't think Supercell wants it in the game :(

Nobody reads any post that says "Zappers, or DE Lightning Shield" because its always the same thing, you could have the most interesting idea about it ever, nobody on this forum cares because

1. either we dont care about zappers

or

2. anyone who does care about zapping already made their own post about zapping that nobody else read

and before you say you read others zapper posts, you didn't because you made your own instead on commenting on one of the hundreds already made.

PS I still didn't read the Original post

My idea is a little bit more specific than mearly being able to see everyones revengable status. example of my idea, say hypothetically you got zapped 2k de. Then hour later u come back online and try and revenge him back right. But he has a shield. Now where i was getting at was, being able to tag that player and perhaps 2 other players that have shields and when they dont have a shield ONLY if you are online at that time, an in game notification would signify you can attack them, if you choose. I dont know if that is what they mean. Although im pretty sure this is what they mean. they have canned the idea of being aware of someone eles presence on the game like an online symbol, or have their shield time remaining on display for the player to revenge attack or currently attackable meaning identifying all players you can attack. You see my idea is a more subtle suggestion, thus not exactly what they deem ruled out. It is a shame though if it is, but i guess we will never know. :smirk:

Well saying that your bored of the topic that u consider irrelevant does nothing except bump my post. So i guess you deserve a thank you for your valid opinion:thumbsup:
edit: PS here is the Original post,

This would give you the perfect satisfaction to go and revenge those de stealing low lifes!! Or just those pesky goblins that get on your nerves.

this would really enhance your desicion to just attack who ever you want. And with every action, there is a consequence..
Your opinion would be awesome. Clash on chief!

Voted Yea, but not for the reason in the title. As someone who only attacks during Clan Wars and Revenge, I have a somewhat annoying problem; I have to click through each and every person who attacked me and hope that they not only don't have a shield but aren't online. This substantially reduces the pool of people I can revenge. If I could flag specific people, or at least filter the Defense Log based on people without shields/ online / currently under attack, it would make the process a lot less tedious to wade through.

That, and as someone who only attacks via clan war or revenge I have no problem whatsoever with just zapping their Dark Elixir even though I don't have any means of storing it yet. They attacked me, why should I care in the least how they feel about me zapping their DE? Why should I care that they think it takes no skill when they ran off with enough resources to delay an upgrade by a few hours or a day? In fact during Revenge hunting I specifically wish to target people with Dark Elixir Storage just so I can zap it. Knowing that it enrages them to no end amuses me. I had to wait longer for an upgrade that meant a lot to me, why shouldn't they?

The idea is good, but the title is misleading.
I have always wanted a change tonthe revenge system, having to click on every individual revenge to check if they are available for attack is very frustrating, an Icon to show who is available would be nice, it could change a few minutes after the player has left the game, or after his shield duration is over.

yes, i understand the title is misleading, however there is nothing i can do about that now. :( you have to understand i made this post before I truly understood the hate towards lightning strikes on DE. in saying that, in hind sight i should have had a name updated revenge system or something like that. although, the initial idea stemmed from someone lightning striking my DE and i was unable to revenge him. so that is the story behind that. thanks for your insight. :thumbsup:

sorry to disappoint. although not that sorry :D because unlike the numerous amounts of threads on DE thieves, mine isn't exactly specific to lightning striking. I just put it in there because i could.

Having the shields only work against new attacks & not against revenge attacks would change the game but also improve the flow of resources around the game as people will no longer be able to attack multiple players then hide behind the shield they get from the first attack.

If a shield was needed against both new attacks & revenge attacks they could sell them for gems as a way to raise more money.

i raised this in another thread & the general reply was to stop whinging & just attack other people. I guess those responses were from those that like to hide behind their shields. If a player is confident in their ability to defend what they have then there should be no need for them to need the shield & they can attack as much as they want with impunity. As it stands now the concept of revenge in this game is laughably non existant & one could argue the button is falsely raising a players hopes.

As to the poll being run on this thread, given the number of people that have failed to understand anything that was written after the original title I don't hold any hopes that the result will be anything other than a donkey vote.

I like the concept of that idea, although there are flaws in it to the extent it may unbalance the economic aspects. example being, a player has just boosted for 2 hours battling non stop and at the end of that imagine the backlash of everyone revenging that player. not to mention everyone would just revenge everyone rather than searching, spending gold looking for a decent base to attack, only to then get revenged from that player. i think these are the issues SC are trying to avoid. however my idea resides specifically in the fact that, the only way you will get revenge on the 1,2,3 players remains on the basis that you are online. and in my opinion that is the key to make this not blow out of proportion. because if you are not online, those players that you have tagged get attacked and get another shield. which is quite fair on their behalf.

True, but spending gold to search for a base to attack removes gold from the in game economy. Also, eventually once you revenged against everyone you'd either need to find others to attack or just sit & wait to be attacked again so you could revenge

you ask for an unbiased opinion, yet deliberately made the title controversial. your whole plan was to gain the support of people who suffer from zapper attacks, that's about as biased as it gets, now it has backfired and are biased against the people who didn't want to read the post cos of the zapper title

unbiased would suggest there is nothing that would lead people to make an assumption, and this post does anything but

With the ... is part of the game -argument you could simply give up developing the game any further. Obviously everything that is in the game atm is part of the game. The fact that something is now a part of the game cannot be used against ideas for improving the game. So the people who are defending zapping should be saying "I like it the way it is", preferably followed by a valid and justified argument.

Back in the early days it was part of the game that wall breakers went for studs in the wall. It was part of the game that defending cc troops were trapped inside own walls. It was part of the game that heroes could be lured out to the corner of the base to be slaughtered. It was part of the game that giant bombs did the same damage to hogs as all the other troops. It's part of the game that de can be zapped...

It's part of the game is not a valid argument.

I didn't deliberately make it so, I made this thread for a solution to what the title was saying. That is why I requested an unbiased opinion on the revenge idea because i knew people would just vote on what they assumed to be another zapper post. at the end of the day, the title speaks for itself, its really just asking the question and the thread is providing a solution to that question.:facepalm: in hind sight, i probably would not have used that title, although at the time I was new to the forums and wasn't aware of the hate towards that issue.

I lose far more DE from being raided then zapping. I stay in the right league for my level, TH and defensive capabilities.
