Resource loss with no shield granted....

No one cares about trophies down in silver and there's no league bonus to speak of so it often takes hours to get a snipe down there. It's the risk you are taking by staying so low.

That's pretty much my point... getting hit three times in 30 minutes without a shield going up is the only reason I posted.

Do you want a free shield or not? Then don't protect your TH.

Yeah I don't trap my TH. Not sure where that idea came from. I just went to TH9 - didn't rush and was able to do pretty well down in the Silver ranks with a TH8 because people hit it frequently enough to allow me to build resources.

I'm moving back up today. I think its going to solve my problem.

You must be a very rushed TH9, if you still don't know. Rushed th9s are prime targets for looting.

Rushed th9s or th10s are my favourites, if they are holding somthing in their storages I don't leave any standing still. In this game either you can protect your resources with good defenses for your th or even lower ths will be able to pick on you.

This game is all about stealing loot and that's what I will do with yours if I can get them! no mercy

You should get a shield if they reach 40%.

Sure, you might get lucky with a snipe from the occasional lowbie pushing....but that isn't the norm. Also keep in mind the higher you go, the more likely you are to come across stronger players.

Personally, I laugh at every Th9/10 with an exposed TH I see in Masters/champ or above. Thanks for the easy loot bonus, easy cups, and I'll still completely raid your base and take whatever loot you have (assuming its 200K/ 1.5k de or more).

It's stupid to continue to raid them if you already sniped TH, unless they're loaded. 100k gold/lix and 500 de for 1 troop is some serious profit margin.

Im in m3, with th on outside and haven't been raided once in the last 6 days. I'm always offering max de and most of the time max elixir.

Watched replays of TH snipes from th10s that could easily flatten me but they are content to take my th with their queen and move on.

I am sitting in gold 2 and getting snipped most of the time with full DE and gold available.

In the last 4 days, I received 4 storage attacks as TH9 with hogs and heroes, TH10 with giants hogs and heroes, th10 gibarch, and th10 gowipe.

There were 9 snipes. The other attacks are as follows TH7 snipe with 11 archers, th8 snipe with BK, TH9 snipe with l8 AQ, 3 barbs, 6 archers, 1 minion, th8 snipe with 11 archers, th9 snipe with l3 AQ, th9 trophy drop with 1 barb, th8 snipe with 1 archer and bk.

I was in silver 2 earlier this week, and I got 2 snipes and the rest were all storage raids by TH9/10s as soon as I logged off. It's like that every time I venture down to Silver 2, mostly full storage raids by TH9/10. When I push back up to Gold 2, it's back to mostly snipes.

When I push to gold 1, my defense logs will go days without a full raids just snipes by AQs/BKs or TH7s/8s. After 3-4 days, I get hammered by a TH10 after nothing but snipes. The whole time, I am sitting on full gold/DE as I wait for builders.

Not high enough. Try 4500+ and see what happens. Top league players don't care about loot, they care about cups. They will take you for all the cups they possibly can.

Though even after the update, the leagues themselves are still broken as all hell. Sure, on a 1 cup offer I'm sure they would just take your TH and not bother raiding your base because they get absolutely nothing out of full on attacking you.

It happens in me as th6,currently. I now suffer total annihilation. Not all resources gone. They send dragons and giants lv.4

Unless they want the 900k gold sitting in my base :)
And yes I know, once you get around 4200 it's best to keep TH inside
