Solutions:

1. Add a bonus shield anytime someone only drops lighting spells.
Not every idea's a winner, I guess
2. Lighting Rod, can be placed on any one building and will absorb some/all of the blast. (my favorite)
Requested all time, and still stupid
3. Add another dark elixir storage so that lighting spells cannot take so much dark elixir at once.
Protecting one of those storages is more than enough
4. Make dark elixir storage more lighting proof, so less percentage of damage from lighting spell.
Zapping is a part of the game, and one of the only ways people at TH7 can efficently get DE

Nope, there are a lot of people who zap. This would result in free shields very often and would drastically affect the amount of bases attackable

Became ruled out yesterday. Twister is now my favorite mod :smirk:
3. Add another dark elixir storage so that lighting spells cannot take so much dark elixir at once.
Is there any upgrade which costs over 200k DE? No. Why would we need another one?
4. Make dark elixir storage more lighting proof, so less percentage of damage from lighting spells.
As I said, there is a hole on top allowing a lightning spell to come in and damage it. It wouldn't make sense to lightning proof it.

You want a shield for DE. It exists. 100 gems and it lasts 24 hours.

This has been proposed.
You don't wanna get zapped use your de or buy shields

Show me a screenshot when you have your th outside (because you have a farming base) and get raided 10 times without a shield, all with lightning spells.

Don't bother he has asked and been given screen shots of this on several other threads and still can't take it in. Go to c3 and zap the heck out of everything and barch while spells are cooking promise you will turn a huge profit. Drowned SC in lighting bolts untill they get it.

Right. Link me to one thread with the screenshots. If you are talking about the "One and Only" Zap Thread, the person who provided the only screenshots openly admitted that his townhall was inside (NOT farming) AND once his townhall was outside, rarely got zapped.
You are already drowning Supercell with threads about this. Drowning people with zaps isn't going to work bud.

Won't bother with you anymore when you get to th9 and have to save up 140k plus de for heros I have no doubt you will get to witness it first hand.

What? Do YOU have the screenshots I need?
A zap and snipe gains wayy less DE than a gibarch that gets 3000 DE. Plus, they both give shields.
Don't act like I've never been zapped before.
If you are getting zapped without a snipe, you need to push up into crystal 1- masters. NO ONE will zap you unless they take your townhall too.

He was not the only one to send shots. Others did as well if memory serves. I think they were only like 5 or 6 in a row. So the hundreds of people reporting the same thing must have all gotten together to make it up. How can you even think this is not possible unlucky yes impossible absolutely not. Anyway back to zapping in c3 and I now don't give a shield either.
